Hi All,

This is with respect to my airtel broadband connection. I have subscribed for airtel broadband from 1st Jun,2012. Am going through such a pain and numerous calls from airtel asking me to pay the outstanding, but there is no one who hears what is the problem. I have subscribed for a plan - alpha 3GB which is kind of limited plan (monthly charge of 650 Rs). To my surprise, I have not received my e-statments as the airtel guys have recorded wrongly my e-mail id in their system. But the collection department do their job on daily basis in calling me and asking me to pay the outstanding. They charged a whoopign amount of Rs 2246 and 2363 for two months and me without knowing any details of the statements and DSL usages. Frankly speaking , there is a very sparse internet usage where it would fall under very much with in the limited plan. The DSL usage has come 27948 MB - approximately 28 GB. No wonder, they make false claims and generate invoices and send to wrong e-mail id's and expect customers to pay.

There is no clear answer given to the DSL usage, and some one even commented that my wifi- router should be switched off, if not in use and so on. After revewing many cases, I found that those who are on limited plan - you may get monthly statments of 2000 and more and they explaining that we have downloaded. Reality is , DSL usage can be fradulent if your DSL subsriber ID can be used by other over n/w protocols (Point -2- Point protocol etc)

After all this, we amicably settled with their collection dept that for the 2 months - I can pay 1500 Rs and going forward - I shall move to the unlimited plan. But, Airtel don;t honour the customer committments. They have again started generating bill for the balances in the previous month and stating that dues are there and expecting me to pay 2k and 3k and so on.

Facts/Points to see through:

1) DSL usage has drastically reduced when I moved from un-limited to limited ( 29 GB to 100 MB)
2) Airtel debarred my connection and activated again when I paid 1500 stating this is resolved. they should not have activated and expected me to pay the full o/s amount.
3) But Airtel again debarred my connection stating dues are pending. Airtel activates and de-activates at their will and don;t communicate the customer if your connection is active or de-activated.
4) No one, rather came to explain on DSL usage or troubleshoot why such a usage was there under my DSL subscriber id.
5) Sometimes, after de-actticating the connection, they shall tell, pls. check your statments/communication. How a customer can check - if your connections are de-barred.
6) Raised airtel cancellation SR on last Sep'12, but still they keep calling and not closign the line. Today I got a SMS again, my oustanding is more then expected.

Am really disappointed with their services, and I wonder about the common man plight -if they have to go through this and understand all the nuisances.

I have reached their airtel appellate, but no responses from them too. So, customers pls. be cautious about when you choose your service provider.

I procurred a 3G dongle with a post paid rental plan. As per plan I would get 3G speed till download of 6GB, subsequently it will come down to 256 Kbps and will get renewed till the end of the bill cycle.
I could get the 3G speed for one month, subsequently after 6GB download the speed came to 256 Kbps and was never renewed at the end of the billing cycle even after paying all rental for subsequent 2 months.
I have opted stop using this facility from Airtel, who are cheating public with initial 3G speeds and never continue after one months period.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Here is my peculiar case with the Airtel Service Provider... I bought a mobile number ([protected]) for about four years back, and recently my aunt had lost my mobile along with that sim. I informed to Airtel Customer care to block my number and a week later i went to Airtel showroom in T.Nagar, Chennai (which is 90km from my home as no Airtel Relationship Centre near to my home) to get a duplicate SIM card, i filled an application and gave to them, as soon of waiting 5 minutes, a representative told that my proof doesn't matches to that number which i was using for 4 years. I was shocked and asked that how it could happen like that, but she didn't responded properly. And moreover she asked me to call customer care and confirm. I told to them that i was using it for 4 years and also i have submitted my proof two times when government ordered to submit the proof once again for security purpose. And there i spent more than an hour in explaining my problem, and finally they came up with giving me a S/R No. and a Nodal Officer number. And its time for me to return home so i thought i could call that Nodal Officer later, so i moved from there as i am getting late to catch my train to reach my town. When i called that Nodal Offier number, an autobot asked to keyin the S/R. No., as i entered the number, the sysyem replied that it was a wrong S/R. No like that. I totally fed up and i called once to airtel customer care and told all the A-Z problems for 4th time, and again that CSE gave another S/R. No. Once again i called to Nodal officer but same problem existed and i couldn't contact any Nodal Officers. And it was very disgusting. So i left calling Airtel CSE for a week. And again i tried after a week calling the customer care for 5th time from one of friend's Airtel number, as usual i told the A-Z problems from first. And again i got a S/R. No for the 3rd time. And this time also i couldn't connect to that Nodal Officer. And again i tried to call CSE, but i couldn't able to contact them and i was blocked to make calls to CSE. And no further calls ii can call to Airtel Customer care. And again today i called from my office colleague airtel mobile to the CSE. AS again same problem existed, and i tried to call the Nodal Officer with the provided S/R. No, i cant connect to them as usual. So i tried again to them, but they blocked his number too as before.

Really i cant find what is the meaning of CUSTOMER CARE according to AIRTEL. Really i was vexed with this type of LOW LEVEL of service from them. They blocked numbers from calling to customer care too. Please find me a solution regarding my problem. I want my old number back which i was using for long time. Please clear my problem... Its the number i want back please. I was using it for 4 years and also i have submitted my proof two times when government ordered to submit the proof once again for security purpose. But even though they are telling its not in my proof... NEED BACK MY NUMBER PLEASE...

Waiting for your kind reply.

For almost 2-3 weeks, I'm being charged by Airtel for no reason.
Last month, I recharged with Rs. 30, and the balance became Rs 4.70 the very next day.
When I contacted the customer care executive, they said Airtel Talkies were activated, which I didnt activate at all.
The next week, they charged me Rs 5. I checked if any service were active, if any packs were activated, but nothing!...
Again, after some days, an sms came from "AK-OIAROT"
saying "Thank you for choosing Valuecombo, You will be charged Rs.2 everyday.To Manage Service Dial *121*5#"
Inspite of not activating any of these, they are charging me unnecessarily...

I am writing this with high level of frustration and disappointment caused while applied for Airtel Wired Broadband connection. I would say it is probably the worst service that any ISP can provide to a consumer in this country. Lot of communication gap and false promises from their end really tested my patience.

Here is the story. I bought a new laptop and planned to take internet connection. I applied for Airtel broadband connection through online on 9th October 2012. One of the sales representatives(Abraham) called that night and he asked me for the copy of ID proof, address proof and photo. Since I was in the office I asked him to come next day. He came to my home on 10th October 2012 morning and collected all my details and I also paid Rs.1200(Plan charge 1050+Notary sign charge 150). He said someone from the technical team will be contacting me within 3 to 4 working days. Waited till 13th of October and there is no response from ISP's end. I call the customer care and they said broadband connection is not feasible and the amount paid will returned back through check within 21 working days. I got pissed off and called them again. Other call center representative's answer was different and she said the connection is feasible and she promised me that someone will be calling me on 15th of OCtober 2012. Waited till 18th of October and there was no response from their end. In between the I called the sales representative and he gave me the technical department head's number. Unable to reach the head.

Again called customer care on 18th and they gave me a different answer again. They said the connection is not possible and I got the same reply as same as the customer representative 1. Tried calling the technical head he asked me to send the application details. Sent him all the details and there is no response from him. I would have called customer care atleast 10 times and I've been getting different answers each and every time.

At last on 23rd October someone from the Airtel called me and informed that the connection is not possible because the ports are not available and they said that the money will be refunded through check.

It took almost 2 weeks for them to tell me that the connection is not possible and till date I've not received any refund from them.

Government should take strict action against these kind of ISPs for making the consumers suffer to the core.

Suggestion:- Airtel should check whether the slots are available for the internet in the consumer's area before getting money and necessary documents from the customers.

To whom it may concern

Hi,

I'm using Airtel 3G Dongle (No.[protected] from 1st Oct 2012. I have not received my E Bill at my actual Email ID ([protected]@yahoo.com). Airtel mailed the Bill to a false Email ID (saumyadip.[protected]@gmail.com) which was not provided by me. I tried to contact Airtel Customer care over Phone several times, but couldn't able to connect. I'm looking forward to get my E Bill at my actual ID asap.

I was a Idea customer but due to a attractive plan of airtel that on First Recharge of Rs. 52 I get call rate as A2A- 1p/3 sec and A2Other 1p/2 sec and say that i will get full talk time at some of the recharges like Rs. 48.
the above facilities are for 2 months and said that after 2 month i have to recharge with Rs. 2 and i get continue the aforesaid facilities. but after 2 months when i recharged with Rs. 2 i find that the aforesaid services are not continued so i called to customer care center of Airtel and they tell me that you can not continue this service that they stop this service and suggest to recharge with many other recharge to reduce call rates. So the service of the Airtel are not satisfactory.

Airtel digital provides the worst service interms of customer support and the set-up box.This is from my experience.We should never go for Airtel digital tv other wise life will be hell.my customer#[protected].I made a mistake hope other will not after reading this.
Since 1 month I am behind Airtel digital customer suport & local technician team...It has been more than a month but no solution.

>Customer support never picks up call
>Even sometimes they picks up, they will put you on hold, divert the call to somewhere else
>While speaking in english with customer support guy, suddenly call gets diverted to Tamil tech support guyz.
>Any body can close the ticket without resolving issue or without getting my concern.
>Sometimes they are not ready to give the ticket number.
>Worst experience with their local technicians..they are the boss
>Technician visited 2 times and delivered defective set-up box which never runs but they made sure to take their service fee of RS 150 each time.
>After spending RS 600 and lot of time over calling those people, still I am not able to watch my TV since 1 month.
