Airtel Complaints & Reviews

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.

Dear Sir,
day before day I missed my mobile in a private bus during my business visit to chennai. In spite of my tight business schedules and commitments the first thing I happened to do is to visit one of your customer relationship center at ashok nagar since communication plays a very vital role in my business. I explained to your representative about the situation and was re directed to kodambakkam branch due to power breakdown. Went all the way to kodambakkam branch and was told to visit the T.nagar branch since even they had power breakdown,. But i was astonished to hear the CRC of the most leading communication network "AIRTEL" drags a most valuable customer for just the sake of a regular power breakdown for almost half of the day.
Finally I happened to fill in a communication form at T.nagar branch with the reasons clearly stated and was informed the Sim(Recieved at 12 0' clock noon) will be activated in another two hours without any further delays. I was pleased and felt everything should be fine at least after so much of effort taken to find the right CRC since morning but to my surprise they failed to keep up the commitments and my Sim wasn't activated till 2.30 p.m. So I happened to call one of your customer care center to check in the status and I was informed in certain cases it might take maximum upto 4 hours to reactivate the Sim. But i waited for the whole without any communication to the outer world just trusting the words of your organization. Finally made a call around 7.00p.m to the same customer care center with full of disappointments since morning but i had a further shock with the no response and was asked to check with the CRC from whom i had collected the Sim this morning. I even spoke with the Floor supervisor but his reply was totally.Still it is not activated.Your committed time 4hours max your guys said. but nowalmost 12 time 4 hours dead line crossed. The pain is each customer care execurives is telling different things.
I fed up with your service and I dont like to continue with your service, i dont know how are you doing business with out any communication between you and CRC. Even CRC guys told me come there and change another sim since the sim has some error.I sent some one there they did not chnaged the sim and said that it will activate with in 4 hours. that passed more than 8 hours. So please activate and i can change to another service provider. i cant loose the no which is familiar in my business.

So kindly look in to this and activate as soon as. I am using your service more than 8 years but never see this trouble. so kindly rectify to retain next customer.
This was i wrote them 3days ago.




After all the pain I talk to a applet team now. she said that go to airtel showroom and got another sim that seems start the game from scratch. I dont like to waste time with you.so please disconnect my no [protected]. Already past 5 days i wasted time with your guys. past month i bought a usb modem from you. just i called and your CRC guy came to my house and got the money. so it seems if you will get the money from customer then your CRC guys will do all things. but if the customer need service we have to go and beg them. is it right thing?. also still i did not get any call from your CRC and you too. I am calling every day. so Please consider this is my application for disconnect the service. also i have usb modem with you .that also i need to terminate from you. so i will contact the correponding team. really i am too much happy with your service. so stay this process. I will do help for you to reduce customer who all my friends and business contact. and will be reimbursement for your CRC child things. I put it to my lawer Babu ganesh. He will take care all things. bye.

Still the problem is not solved but their website is showing that problem resolved. I dont know how did they closed the complint without my confirmation. due to thier poor communication i suffered lot. I had lost 50000 due to non available of the phone and new customer. also lot of depression due to their activities.

DEAR SIR/MADAM,

MY NAME IS DAVE RAJAN MY AIRTEL NO. IS [protected]. BEFORE 1 DAY I ENTERED MY PUK CODE IS WRONG MANY TIMES. NOW MY PROBLEM IS MY SIM CARD IS REJECTED. SIR I RESPECTLY TELL YOU THAT WHAT'S THE PROBLEM OF AIRTEL CARD?



MY MAIL ID IS dave.[protected]@gmail.com

DO SOME FOR MY NUMBER

I'm Senthil from Chennai, using Airtel postpaid Company CUG ([protected]) for the past 6yrs. 3 months back i activated Internet pack of 1GB, till last month i get bill below Rs1000/-. last month i got bill for Rs5118.90/- was shocked on seeing it.

I called Airtel customer care (121), executive informed that i have used excess 400MB and its cost nearly Rs 3911.12/-. I have send a mail to [protected]@in.airtel.com on 17th Oct 2012, i got call from Airtel on 23rd oct 2012, i explained everything and asked to reconsider about the bill.

Then there is no response from them, i have send another mail on 26th oct 2010 to know about the status, and got return mail from Rekha & Sirisha Palaji as "GPRS charges are charged as per the usage".

In Airtel there is no facility for me to check the data used, only in the bill it reflects the total usage. My concern is after crossing the limit of 1GB i didnt get any information allowed to used the internet and finally in bill showing Rs5118.90 to pay.

The ultimate thing is, I'm paying Rs98 for 1GB and Rs3911 for 400MB, i dont know how to digest it.

I'm one of the customer of Airtel for the past 6 yrs, using 5 post paid Mobile connections and 2 Data card, now this incident made me to think about other network for the further uses.

I'm totally frustrated on this, and not getting any solution so came here to highlight this matter. As a once the leading mobile service player Airtel should have a clear transparent system.

When the limit exceeds it should inform to the customers and should have some slab limit for using and also freezed cost for it.

Hi,

I have the following airtel mobile numbers [protected],[protected],[protected] on my name i.e Divya Manohar Mudumala.

My issue is, i have paid my airtel bills on 09/09/2012 for the above mentioned numbers generated on 22/08/2012 which was due on 09/09/2012 vide bill num-61 at Bharti airtel office ,opp Vijaya krishna super bazar,Near buckinghum post office,Vijayawada.The details are:

[protected]-860.00(paid on09/09/2012 vide cash bill receipt no-60)
[protected]-790.00(paid on 09/09/2012 vide cash bill receipt no-61)
[protected]-290.00 paid on 24/08/2012 and 575.00 paid vide
cash bill no-60)


However i was charged a late payment fee of Rs-100.00 for all the above three mobile numbers in the subsequent bills.I also raised a complaint for the number [protected] vide ref no[protected] on 16/10/2012 and for [protected] vide ref no[protected] on 16/10/2012.I spoke to many customer care executives but of no use.All my efforts went in vain.

The undigested fact is that the airtel customer care people closed my complaints stating incomplete info.Also I neither got a call nor a mail from the complaint resolution team stating my complaints were closed.This says the airtel's concern towards the customers.

The second one is i tried calling the customer care several times to inform my problem.The worst experience i ever had in my life was with airtel IVR.It asks to dial 198 for any complaints .

When we dial 198 it gives 2 options i.e if we have complaint no press 1 else press 2 .
When i dialed the option 2 it again goes back to the previous menu and asks us to dial 198 for any complaints.This goes on repeating all the times i call and i am fed up of dialing 198.Finally i though of writing a mail to some next level where my pain can be understood and resolved.

I hope the resolution at the earliest.

Whenever a complain /request is made withe respect to thee existing services etc. thee company does not attend to thee same theough theeir customer people assure me of thee same. In last monthe I shifted from one place to anotheer in thee same city and made a request to shift my air-tel connection to thee new place. Though theere were multiple calls from thee customer people no action was taken and at last I had to disconnect thee services. To my terrible dismay thee number was working somewhere in thee same city. There after I applied for anew connection which was provided after much waiting. The service people are very much unresponsive and do not pay any heed to requests. This time thee land line instrument is not working and even after I lodged a complain on 24the of October-2012 till date no body is forthe coming. The customer people only beg pardons for this and do not ensure timely attendance.My reference number theis time is 23805254.

please disconnect my broadband services.
i have not use of broadband.......................

My customer id. is [protected]
I am using this connecting for past 3 years and now due to some issue Airtel technician wants to replace it.
Airtel is expecting me to pay 350 Rs. for the replacement.
If Airtel owns the STB and I have paid upfront for the set-top box services then why am I asked to pay for this replacement? This is not acceptable since if I terminate the services then the STB will be returned to Airtel.

Need your immediate attention.

I had raised a relocation request to bangalore based on the suggestions from the airtel customer care. The first relocation request raised a mnth back was closed as complete without even notifying me so I raised a request again(req num[protected] on 19th oct. Still i havnt got any call and no agents have come and collected the documents needed. They also called me and cancelled the old number which i held.

I had lodged in a complaint on 121 at 20.45 hrs on[protected] for my broadband connection. The modem was not working. The copmplaint reference no. is 23833466. I was informed that airtel would revert back to me by 18.30 hrs on[protected]. I followed up with airtel customer care on 26th and 27th and I was informed that the problem would be resolved positively by the time mentioned for[protected]. I called 121 at 20.30 hrs on[protected] to inform thet no action has still been taken and a very rude airtel representative told me to go to a store and buy a new modem. When I got a little upset and called agian, another representative told me that an engoneer would visit my address on[protected] and that he is arranging a call by his Senior. Nothing happened and I did not receive any call. On 28th evening I called again and was assured that an engineer would visit by 11.00 hrs on[protected]. And still nothing has happened. I have been without internet usage since[protected] which has resulted in huge business losses. I am shocked by the carelessness of airtel. They refused to take my complaint also. I really do not know how they are going to maintain heir quality with this sort of customer service.

Hi,

I have raised a request for my airtel broadband connection in the month of may. They hav cancelled in july. i have asked for the full and final settlement and paid in the month of july. In august they have again generated a bill and sent to me. They are causing inconvenience to me by calling on every alternative days. I have mailed the concerned teams many times. Inspite of this there is no update in there system?
Now they are saying that they will issue legal notice.

Please let me know what can i do in this case?

I received an SMS from (ADSFALRT: Dear Subscriber, now enjoy unlimited downloads in next 24 hours from the link http://180.151.100.230/sl/avpack?catid=584), but i have not subscribe for this service, next day (25th Oct 2012 09:47 PM)I got charged for Rs. 99 from (ATAIRINF: Thanks for downloading Airtel Animation Value Pack_Rs from Airtel. You have been charged Rs.99.0.

Airtel cut Rs. 99 from me second time...(My number is [protected]) anyone can help on this. This is purely illegal. They cheat there customers..

My fixed line & broadband were not working since 16th October. I have placed a complaint with Airtel Customer Care (SR #:[protected]. Every day, the folks at customer care promise me that the issue will be rectified as soon as possible. They also assure that A SENIOR OFFICER will call me back and provide a status. Never did they call or provide a status.


What is the point in spending crores on advertising, when you can't provide the service you are supposed to? What kind of issue takes more than 12 days to resolve? Are we in STONE AGE?


Thanks & Regards,
R Krishna

SIR, I HAVE COMPLAIN AGAINST AIRTEL AS THEY ARE SENDING FALSE MESSAGES REGARDING AIRTEL SCHEMES. THEY MESSAGED ME A SCHEME AND I FOLLOWED THAT ONE BUT IT WAS NOT WORKING SO I TALKED TO AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE FOR THIS ONE BUT HE SAID WE HAVE NOT SEND SUCH MESSAGEAAND WAS MISBEHAVING AND NOT COOPERATING. I HAVE PROOF OF THAT MESSAGE/SCHEME, SO THE THING IS THAT THEY USED TO DEDUCT MONEY FROM OUR ACCOUNT WITHOUT ANY REASON AND GIVE WRONG INFORMATION. NOW I WANT TO GET MY AMOUNT REFUND WHICH I HAVE PAID FOR SCHEME AND NO FALSE MESSAGE IN FUTURE......THANKS [protected]

Dear Authorities,

Myself C Ilavarasan, purchased the Airtel mobile number[protected] as postpaid; an year back on June 2011. Then I converted the same as prepaid at Airtel, Shop No. 12, Anna Nagar, Madurai - 625020. The same was done on my presence.

Unfortunately my mobile was lost on September 2012. I approached airtel customer care at Madurai Airtel Office @ Anna Nagar, for new sim. To my surprise, I was told that the number is registered in somebody else name i.e., Mr Anand Kumar, S/o Mr Mahalingam.

I wonder that when I submitted all the proofs and other details for the purchase of number; how its being converted to somebody else name without my knowledge. Even if the number is in somebody else name how come they didn’t question the same for last 1 year; when I used it. F Y Kind Info, I have a proof for my usage and my possession.

The same subject as complaint been registered as with customer care over phone.

Again when I approached the Airtel Office @ Adyar, Chennai; they did a prolonging enquiry. Then provided a new replacement sim no.[protected] H2 and informed that activation will be done in 2 hours and not activated till now.

I would raise the doubt that, how do Airtel permit me to use the number which is in somebody else name.

I suspect the Airtel executives are purposely doing these cheap works to abduct this fancy number.

Kindly do intervene and get me back my mobile number at the earliest.

Regards
Ilavarasan C
