Respected Sir,

I Dr.Manish C. Paranjape Mobile No.- [protected]
I had contacted Airtel Customer Service on 8th November 2012 for 3G settings for my handset. I asked them the charges for the same. They told me that activation is free of cost and charged only when i use a 3G Data Plan. I said " Ok " only for the settings.But without my consent they billed me for Rs.252INR. When i tried to contact them they took my complaint orally and didn't give me a complaint no. When i insisted they told me that my call will be transferred to the " Senior " , but the call never went further and only " Ringing Sound " was there for 10-15min.This same sequence happened for 6 times in the last 2 days
and I was charged for the same ,even for the call & waiting period of 15 to 20 minutes.
finally I am fed up with the response and service and losing Rs.252 + 25 (call waiting charges)
I also tried to call from my second airtel No. but the response was same. and my mobile network die out temporarily from the same day.
please guide me what to do ?

I Dr. Manish C. Paranjape Mobile No.- [protected]

As per my complaint dated 10 November 2012. I have been waiting for my amount to be refunded but it seems similar to the "waiting on-line " for the response from the customer service, except for the " Common Response " posted on my complaint by Bharati Airtel. I have neither subscribed for any 3G Data Plan nor wish to subscribe in the near future. Bharati Airtel has taken advantage of my balance that was Rs500+ and i fear they might automatically bill me.

I also want to know that whether the consumer has a right to claim damage/charges for the Professional Loss (Network Failure/No Service leading to zero communication with my patients) and Mental Harassment caused for the same.

Please look into the matter and suggest me further action that can be initiated and also any help from the Forum for further action.

    Hi

    I am having airtel postpaid number [protected] since more then 2 years, and using the GPRS Rs. 98/- plan in this number,

    When I got the last months bill, I found that without my consent the GPRS plan has been changed to 3G plan and I have been extra billed for that, I immediately asked to stop this service excess bill rectification, I got a call from airtel that your bill will be rectified in 12 hrs and update you on SMS and mail.

    I have not received any updates from airtel till now on my complaint ID 46660154 and now today my number has been suspended for non payment of the bill without any information .


    Can you look in to this issue immediately, and let me know the updates ASAP

    Regards,
    Gyanendra

Earlier i submitted the all documents to obtain SIM as per their guidelines, When i contacted to Airtel relationship centre regarding my problem, i got ... your phone no. deleted from the system, no chances to recover.

      Then i asked the reason, they have no answers.


      Regards,

      AirTel — Deleted my number!

      I had a prepaid sim card from Airtel that I have been using for last 2.5 years, 3 days back my cell phone started displaying "Sim card registration failed". I went to the Airtel office in Pune and asked for the reason and they told me to call help desk number. When enquired they told me that your sim card has been deleted from there system and when asked why they had no clue. Then as usual they said that address documents were not submitted to whic I know in the last 2.5 years at-least 4-5 times they have taken address proof from me!
      This is really disgusting as I had recharged the sim card with Rs. 500 just a week back.
      Hi Rakesh Ranga,
      my problem is still same my no is not working, please help me i[censored] can

                  Airtel 2G Internet speed continuously decrease now a days. It gives below 10 kbps speed to mobile internet user on many area of India and in our region also while telecom copany like tata docomo gives maximum 40/50 kbps data speed. While discussing with Customer care it argues that they provide 30/40 kbps speed but it is not real.
                  Airtel is now become largest telecom company it should increase its data speed so that internet user get more benefited.

                    I have not been able to receive signal at my office in chandni chowk,because of which I have not been able to make or receive any call. My no.is about 9 years old,all my customer has this no.My business is suffering because of this. Two years before also such problem occurs and after many complaints the problem could be resolved.I have complained on[protected] for this via complaint no.46265354 .Again I complained on[protected].
                    so please do the needful.
                    I am an Airtel DTH customer. For the last 3 days I have not been getting TY signals. the error code is B 001.I contacted the Customer care centre which in formed that the issue would be resolved within 6 hours. It has not been resolved.
                    Yesterday I received a fake SMS from Airtel informing me that the issue was resolved. It was not.
                    A technician came to my home. He inspected something and told me that he would come back within an hour, but disappeared forever. i contacted over the local cell number of service centre. They informed that my dish was moved by one of their engineers while doing repairs of some other customer.They did not inform me the name of the engineer who without even informing me had touched the dish provided to me, which has caused the problem.
                    The Airtel DTH continues to charge me even for the days the service is not available.We are at their mercy, aren't we?

                        Address: Gautam Buddha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh

                        My Customer ID is [protected].
                        on[protected] i reinstalled my DTH connection at new address. After installing the settop box was not showing sufficient signal level and quality, i told the service engineer Mr. Tinku mobile no. [protected] to get the signal quality improved. he told me that there may be weather problem, everything would be alright, and he may be contacted for any problem, if occurs. from the very next day the signal quality deteriorated. i called him so many times but he didnt respond.

                        since i was bust with my shifting, finally on[protected] i formally complained at cutsomer care vide complaint no.25664194. on[protected] the engineer came and concluded that the dish location is not correct and would be reinstalled. he told me that he has already informed his office and the same person would rectify the problem who has earlier installed.
                        i waited for full[protected] and[protected] no body turn up. on[protected] i again complained at CC vide complain no. 25731452. today its[protected] more than 8 days. my dish problem is not yet solved. EVERYTIME I COMPLAIN, A NEW COMPLAIN NO WITH 24 HRS TIME IS GIVEN
                        THESE ARE MY VARIOUS COMPLAIN NOS I HAVE DONE VIDE EMAIL/ CC ETC 25664194,
                        25731452, 25792568, 25813751, 25814735, 25815215, 25850329.
                        digital guys call for feedback only and i tell them the whole problem everytime i have told 100times the same thing to 50s customer person. everytime i call on their cc no.[protected] i had to wait for more than 30min with repeated call drops. calling to their so called senior executives is no vain.
                        ONE MORE THING, AIRTEL DIGITAL ARE CHEATERS THEY FRAUDULENTLY CHANGED MY ADDRESS IN THEIR SYSTEM ON[protected] SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE EXCUSES THAT MY ADDRESS IS WRONG. HOW CAN MY ADDRESS GET CHANGED IN 5 DAYS OF REINSTALLATION ONLY?
                        I AM FED UP WITH AIRTEL. AIRTEL SERVICE IS WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN. IM DISCONNECTING MY DTH AND HAS ALSO APPLIED FOR PORTING OF MY AIRTEL MOBILE.

                        UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS NO EFFECTIVE AND TIMELY CONSUMER COURT IN INDIA OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE SUED THEM.
                        I
                        CANT EXPRESS THE MENTAL TRAUMA I HAVE GONE THRU IN THESE 8-10 DAYS. WILL NEVER TAKE ANY AIRTEL SERVICE IN FUTURE.

                        Airtel mobile phone signal — many times informed to rectify

                        We are residents of APSEB colony . This street is located in between Alluri Sita Ramaraju statue & Siridisai temple Seethammadhara. People living in all apartments vizually Saijyostna towers, Saisruthi apartments are suffering from very weak or no siggnal of airtel mobiles in side houses. Many important distant calls ISD & STD calls we are loosing. The System answers to the calling party Not reachable. To Make a phone call, we have to come out of the houses and speak loud. This lacks privacy and disturbing the neighbours.
                        Pertaining to this many a complaints were given in the retail outlets while making recharge of airtel mobiles. No action is being taken up. Since we gave this number to all our concern and job records, we cannot change the sim of other available mobile companies. Hence Airtel techinal department may please take necessary
                        action and rectify/ strengthen the signal around this area to ratify this kind of situation.

                        Sir,

                        I your customer for a long period. I contact your customer care unit regarding a number enquiry. as from that number I am receiving miss calls daily on repeat When I call back, the call cannot be connected message. I want to who is disturbing me.If can help then please do it. The number is +[protected]
                        very pathetic and pitiable to hear your grievance. s as u say dese c.care guys has a technique to drain all ur energy by making u tel the whole story 100 times 2 n-number of persons and mnake urself vexed and repelsive of calling dem again. this is their strategy. write 2 deir c.care mail-id and resend until u get reply mail. and with those copies u can file case in consumer-court.
                        im repeatedly emailing but everytime the same reply we are looking into your problem and will revert back. butENOUGH IS ENOUGH I VE DECIDED TO SWITCH TO TATA SKY. THERE CC SEEMS BETTER.. I HAVE ALREADY PORTED BY AIRTEL MOBILE TO VODAFONE.

                        FU..K OFF AIRTEL AND GO TO HELL MR BHARTI AND YOUR TEAM

                              The interface for buying smartbytes(extra high-speed download bytes) doesn't ask for any confirmation before submitting my request, which leads to me placing an unnecessary request. Airtel customer representative says airtel doesnt provide option to cancel the request. I regret being a postpaid customer of airtel, they can bill me at their will.

                                I faced a very bad circumstance with Bharti Airtel. I bought an airtel 3G plan for my instrument which did not work even 2 days.
                                I took my instrument to the airtel gallery and showed them that their plan was not working. The associate named Ranbir in Chembur gallery told me that he will cancel my number. Inspite of me calling multiple times on 198 and 121 to check my cancellation status they refused to take my request saying they could not cancel postpaid accounts when called at these numbers.
                                Ranbir assured me that he would take care of this, inspite all these issues i paid the first bill. Further three more bills were generated for which i was asked to not to pay the bill by this associate.

                                When my case took no direction, I called the highest escalation officer Mr.Vijay from Airtel , had a 40 minute conference call with him and his seniors and associate named Ranbir, finally they instructed me not to pay any money and my case would be taken care by him.
                                A month passed and today an advocate named Mr. Tarun called me to pay this bill as a case was registered against me and assured me that he would send me an email back with confirmation that this amount would be refunded to me as this case was registered in error. I paid the complete amount and thereafter informed him and received no email back from Mr.Tarun.

                                I was cheated by the complete Airtel department. I need assistance from Consumer Complaint forum to help me resolve this fight for right.

                                AirTel — Bharti Airtel Cheated me...

                                Sir,
                                my name is sunil, i was having postpaid connection of airtel bearring mobile number:[protected]. this is corparate card by which i can access unlimited internet by 199 rental.
                                on 17-feb i called in customer care to activate this plan and by mistake he activated 99 rental plan where 2gb is free. i called in airtel customer care again for this plan but they told they dont know about this plan i told him that all my office friends are using then he replied that he had no idea of that.then i though it is 2 gb is also more than enough for me but i proved my self wrong my bill came on 4th of march is 33000 and after reducing that 2 gb free access they charged me 16980 rupees.my bill period is 17 feb to 3 march.only 14 days how one can use that much of internet that to with 2g speed.
                                1)when my credit limit is 1200, then why dont they given me any intimation that my usage is exceeding my credit limit.
                                2)Sir there is no transpereancy in postpaid their intention is to cheat by some how because as we can check our daily internet usage by simply calling on *123*6# in prepaid, why dont in postpaid.customer must have rights to know atleast how much he has used.
                                3)Sir when company has given me only 2 gb access then after complition of that they shoud send some intimation or msg that my free usage has over after that i will be charged so and so.....
                                4)After all this airtel recovery boy came to my home when i was not in home harassed my family member asked my brother for to give atleast one security check which he will not going to deposit as it is just for security
                                and he himself in order to take my brother in confidence, he himself asked my brother to give cheque having closed account or having no funds as he is not going to deposit it,and then my brother had given cheque having no fund,when i come to home i called recovery boy that dont deposit that cheque and returned me then again he said no that cheque has no meaning it just as security which he will never going to deposit.(I have recorded this communication on my mobile as evidence).after few days i recevied one notice of sec.138 due to insufficient fund by thier advocate sir, what should i do now i dont know that much about law and i dont have that much amount to pay that too i dint use that much internet i asked almost 100 persons whoever using internet they saying it logically impossible to use more that 2 gb in 13 to 15 days with 2g speed. They should atlest inform me that my usage has exceeded over 2gb or they should abort my service after I have exceeded.Sir I have no intention and have no meaning to use cheap thing in huge cost…..
                                Please reply I have been cheated by airtel,
                                Awaiting for your kind response…

                                Airtel — Wrong instrument

                                Hi
                                This is regarding my airtel landline [protected]. Yesterday I locked a request (no.[protected] for beetel x62 cordless phone. I got three calls for confirmation that which instrument I want. I clearly mentioned them that I want beetel x62. But the person visited my home had installed x64. I checked the box, after he left my place. I submitted a complaint(no.[protected] in which the customer care person told me that is has been resolved. So, i have to open a new request. They are continuously closing my complaint without even visiting & fooling people with the wrong instrument. Kindly look into the matter,
                                Thanks
                                Sidharth Saluja

                                I suggest you to pls go to nearest Airtel Hub and register complaint if you feel you are not getting the proper support from call center.
                                You can reach me @ [protected]
                                Whenever I post a complaint to www.airtel.in/airtelpresence it says that my #G plan that I bought is Invalid . The 3G plan no. is [protected]
                                Inspite of constant calls to Nodal officers, nobody at airtel is helping for chaeting that happened by their associates. After writing on this Consumer Forum that they would help, seems like it was just a statement to cover themselves nothing more.
                                Inspite of so much follow up, the behaviour of Airtel associates have not changed.
                                They have denied to help me with this case. In fact they hang up calls when I discuss with them my case. They are not ready to take any action against their unfair officers and the mental trauma they have given me during this process.
                                I would like to bring to each one's notice that Airtel has generated a wrong wrong and troubled me with threatening phone calls for incorrect recovery.
                                Please beware of them.Inspite of writing these posts on Consumer Forum, Airtel associates just do write back that we will reach you, but they do not call you and help you.

                                  On[protected], I had recharged my Airtel mobile after checking up with the Airtel's website (airtel.in) for top up of Rs.300. The offer was given clearly, for Full Talk time of Rs.300.

                                  But I received like this: Talktime: Rs.264, Processing Fee: Rs.3, Service Tax: Rs.37.08

                                  I had complaint this to the Airtel Customer Care on 24th (Complaint No: CBNRA[protected]), they said, I will get it resolved by 4.00PM of 26th October 2012. But No update till 28th October 2012.

                                  Again I had called to Airtel Customer Care on 28th (Complaint No: CBNRA[protected]), this time also the person said you will receive the full amount by 4.00PM of 29th October.

                                  NO RESPONSE till 3 November 2012. Finally I've received a text message saying "We tried reaching you regarding CBNRA[protected]; but could not contact you...!!!

                                  I'm totally confused to get it resolved and regain the loss of Rs.36.
                                  Deepak,

                                  I personally suggest Bharthi Airtel to alter/ remove this tagline from your signature...

                                  "Connect with us 24X7 and we will be happy to assist you with a swift resolution to your queries on all our products and services"


                                  Frankly telling, this tagline will not suits your company's quality.

                                  Whether the people are mad to just keep on calling to your call centre for those they are not getting remedies for a long time? Who bare the customers loss of time?

                                  Anyhow, thanks for the concern taking at least by looking at this complaint!(I guess, you prefer the external complaint boxes rather the internal one?)

                                  I'll wait few more days, if any result may happen with your effort.

                                  Regards,
                                  Sharath Alva
                                  Mr.Deepak Mohod,

                                  Today is 21st November 2012!

                                  No resolution till date???

                                  What the hell you did man? Is this is the service you promised me on 8th November 2012?

                                  Simple don't play with the customers money and time.

                                    Address: Karnataka

                                    I lost my airtel post-paid SIM card almost 3 months ago, but unfortunately I couldn’t realize that as I was out of station.

                                    So once realized I planned to convert it to prepaid, and I went to airtel office (Indiranaga, Bangalore) on 20-Oct-2012.
                                    I have paid all the outstanding amt till 20nd and submitted all documents they asked. At that moment they issued me a duplicated SIM card being told that it will be get activated...

                                      Dear Sir,

                                      I am existing Customer Number# [protected], it is really frustrating experience with Airtel DTH , after relocating I requested for reinstallation of connection.

                                      Nobody came to my apartment , after making 100 calls to Airtel DTH customer care, they made many commitment every day, but nobody has visited apartment for reinstallation. I feel it is local Dish vendor is not allowing enginners to visit the community for reinstallation.

                                      I have spoken with Mr. Midhun and Mr. Vinod, no positive sign for customer service. The senior customer service person was very happy to hear that I would like to cancel connection, not sure that's how airtel would like to operate.

                                      The reinstallation request details are as following : 25750265.

                                      The cancellation request number is: 25837482

                                      Finally I decided to cancel this connection, but not happy the behavior and service provided by Airtel DTH.

                                      My contact number is : +91-[protected].

                                      Regards,

                                      Airtel DTH — Re Installation Not Done

                                      Hi,
                                      We have shifted our house from Choolaimedu -94 to Taramani - 113 and have requested for a re installation of the Airtel DTH connection (Customer ID: [protected]). We have called multiple times and each time we get an answer that the installation would be done by today afternoon, and if we call in the afternoon, we get the reply, by 5:30 PM. I really cannot understand your problem and fed up of the hallow promises given through customer care. To top it all once they have even closed the complaint that we lodged stating that the issue has been addressed. Until now no one has contacted us. This is going on for the past 10 days.

                                      After seeing Airtels response in few of the complaints, I m hoping that some one would address this issue and still have a little bit of faith.

                                      My contact number: [protected]

                                      Regards
                                      Hariharan

                                      DTH — Reinstallation

                                      AIRTEL

                                      Recently I moved from Bangalore to Hyderabad. Hence, I got my Airtel DTH connection transferred to my new residence. I had logged a request to re-install it to my new residential address. But the company has failed to do that in more than 2 weeks time.
                                      My first complaint was logged on Fri 10062011. It was done both online and call to customer rep. Since then I have made about 12 calls. Every time I speak to an agent they give me a new time and date for the engineer to install the connection. Moreover I had recharged my account and it is getting debited for daily usage, for a service which I am not using.
                                      The company is insensitive towards its customers. Hence I would advise all you guys not to go with AIRTEL DTH connection.
