Hello,

I have not opted for GAMES MANIA_5 subscription but every day Rs10 is being
deducted from my Mobile Prepaid account since Friday 12th Oct 2012.

In the past I faced a similar issue and had requested Airtel to discontinue the deduction and
reimburse the amount back, which was done on 1st Sept 2012 but almost after 1.5 months it has
restarted.

I request to please discontinue the deduction and reimburse the amount back to my prepaid account
at the earliest and to ensure that this does not REPEATS.

My Mobile number is [protected].

Regards

Manish

I am using Airtel Broadband with Landline for last 1.6 Yrs now in Mumbai, and also have 4 other Airtel Postpaid Mobile/Broadband connections in my family.

For last 2 & half months my landline was not working, for which i had called customer care department twice in Aug for complaint, but due to their system not working at that time my complaint was not taken then. I had requested the customer sup
port executive to plz update the complaint once their system is up for which they replied they will do it.

I called them again on 12th Sept 2012 asking them for the status of fixing the issue, for which their executive replied that they don't have such complaint in their system & they will take the complaint then & surprisingly i got the message with the complaint no. on 12th Sept 2012. I did a lot of follow up with their customer support team as well as with the escalation managers Jasbeer Kaur & Sushil Kumar for fixing this issue ASAP.

Now today i.e. 12th Oct 2012, my landline as well as my internet connection is fixed & their technician also came and checked, but surprisingly again a new issue arise i.e. the internet data limit as per the technician who came to check said its over & the speed is switched to 256Kbps. I really don't understand when the connection got fixed today then how come the internet data limit got over. I am using a 2MBPS line with 5 GB data limit.

All these months i have been paying the rent inspite of my connection not working. This month i did not pay the rent as i got bugged cauz the connection wuz not working for last 2 & half months now. Today when i called their customer care department & spoke to their escalation manager Mr. Sushil Kumar for waiving of the 2 & half month rent as it wuz not working, Mr Sushil replied that he can only give me waiver from 12th Sept & not before that as their is no complaint registered for the same before that inspite of me calling twice & their systems were down or slow.

This is very disappointing. I will make sure that I will post this on every social network and let others know about the airtel service. I am using Airtel connections (have 4 Connections) for last 15 years now, & this is the kind of response i get from them.

My Complaint nos. are
[protected] Connection not working
[protected] For internet usage when the connection was down

update on 15th Oct 2012 - Got call from Mr. Rahul again - he has again taken down my complaint for the waiver & gave me a new complaint no.23397090.... expected resolution date & revert from them will be by 19th Oct 2012...lets c

19th Oct 2012 - i have called the airtel customer care again today to find out the resolution for the complaint no. 23397090 & to my surprise they have closed the complaint w/o even giving the resolution for the same... this is wiered.... wat should i call this Airtel now...they are fraud & cheating their customers

No resolution till date.... i am posting this on all the social sites today.....request all people who are fed up from airtel to help me spread this to everyone whoz using airtel

Sir Main Pichle 3Years Se Airtel Mobile User Hoon,

Date[protected] Ko Maine Bal-Check kiya Too Almost 180.00 Tha Lekin jab Date
[protected] Dekha Too Rs 76.32 Ho Gaya. Kyu?
Maine iss Bare Main 18/10/2012 ko hi Customer Care se baat ki, aur apni Complent No CBDCC[protected] darj ki.to pata chala ki mera Internet charj Rs.98.00 jo 29/10/2012 ko katna tha Wo 18/10/2012 ko hi 10 Din pahle kat liya kyo?
Aaj 19/10/2012 ko aur Rs.65.00 kat Liye? '' Audio downloading Charj '' jo mene kiya hi nahi.
Customer Care ko Phon Bhi Jaldi Nahi Lagta Hai. " Keval Tep Chalu Rhta Hai ''
shriman is tarah mere account se 2 baar Rs. 98.00 + 65.00 = kul Rs. 163.00 mere wapis kiya jaye. yahi nivedan.

So Kindly Return My Rs.163/-

सर मैं पिछले 3 साल से एयरटेल मोबाइल यूजर हूँ,

Date[protected] को मैंने बेलेंस चेक किया तो ऑलमोस्ट 180.00 था लेकिन जब Date[protected] देखा तो Rs 76.32 हो गया क्यों?
मैंने इस बारे मैं 18/10/2012 को ही कस्टमर केयर से बात की, और अपनी कम्पलेंट न. CBDCC[protected] दर्ज की तो पता चला की मेरा इन्टरनेट चार्ज Rs.98.00 जो 29/10/2012 को काटना था वो 18/10/2012 को ही 10 दिन पहले काट लिया क्यों?
आज 19/10/2012 को और Rs.65.00 काट लिए? '' ऑडियो डाउनलोडिंग चार्ज '' जो मेने किया ही नहीं.
कस्टमर केयर को फोन भी नहीं लगता है. " केवल टेप चालू है '' क्या करें ?
श्रीमानजी इस तरह मेरे अकाउंट से 2 बार Rs. 98.00 + 65.00 = कुल Rs. 163.00 कम हो गए है. मेरे पेसे वापिस किया जाये. यही निवेदन.

Hi,

My Airtel Broadband connection was suspended due to non payment of bill for about a month. I had a bill of around 3000 INR. I received a call from Airtel asking me to make a payment. After a long hard discussion they offered me 1000 INR waiver and asked me to make a payment of rest of the amount. They sent a representative the same day and collected the balance amount from my place.

The next month when i checked my Airtel bill, I found that I did not get any waivers and 1000 INR was reflecting as previous balance. I called the Airtel Customer Care to find out why this was not waived off. They informed me that there was no request for any such waiver raised.

Can anything be done regarding this? The problem is that I dont have any proof of that call. Is there a way I can challenge this?

Regards,
Gagan

I contacted airtel for broadband with request no BR849112 first they said its not available in my area and I said that to the confirmation call(from something 044*******) and after one day the guy who I talked first calls me and said it is available in that area and he came to my house A-54 khanpur and fill up the form(CAF no. 3172436) and took 1000rs(500installation+500service charges) and said will install in 3 days and now this is 7th day and he is not even attending my call now please tell me what to do i cant even take another connection now cause my 1000rs is stuck with Airtel and I dont think they will refund it so have to go with Airtel, never expected something like that with the so called best customer care company, Please suggest me something what to do in this case the airtel guy was Rajesh([protected])
Thank You.

Hi,
I'm Vinoth from Coimbatore and my AIRTEL mobile number is [protected]. I have submitted Identity proof & Address proof when i got this number registered, March 2012.

After 7 months, they called me and said to submit my documents again or else they would disconnect the service. I really don't know why the verification happening after a long time!!!

I had submitted the documents in Airtel office and my resubmission Application No. is 20693357 on 11the Oct 2012.

Eventhen i'm getting message says "As per government directive, we are withdrawing service for this number due to unsuccessful verification". When i checked with 121,they are saying to resubmit the documents.

How many times i need to go airtel office to re-submit the documents again and again !

Its frustating and really a mental torture, and i want to know to whom i can escalate for reason and to stop this!

Dear sir,

This complaint is for Airtel regarding wrong information given to the customer by the customer care officer.

I am 4+ years postpaid customer of Airtel. Recently I activated blackberry 2g (Rs.599 pm) plan on my handset, then after few days I called customer care and instructed him to close the blackberry 2g plan and activate a 3g plan (Rs. 450 pm). The customer care officer confirmed me that the 2g is stopped and 3g is started. But the bill I got includes price of both 2g and 3g services. Then I send my query to customer care regarding it and they told me that both 2g and 3g service is started on your handset and they also told me that you can only access 3g services when you continue enabling both 2g (Rs. 599) and 3g (Rs. 450). However the previous customer care offier has provided a wrong information to me that you have to only pay for 3g. So I am in loss of Rs. 1198 because of the wrong information provided by Airtel.

The customer care is not providing me any resolution regarding bill. I have requested for closing my account at Airtel.

I was having airtel broadband connection. But due to irregularities in billing & fake offer from airtel I have ask to disconnect but even after so many request they have not disconnect the connection & sending huge bills & now asking for payment.
my Name- Atul
[protected]@gmail.com

Applied for a broad band connection during the Month August 2012 by paying Rs. 1750/- in advance. Connection not installed no instruments provided with the plea that Rs. 1200/- is pending since 2011 hence pay Rs. 1200/- and we will go for new connection.
Facts: During the year 2010-11 I was using broad band connection of Airtel. Service line was hanging and got damaged daily. I complaint regularly to the Airtel. They make temporary arragements any finally this service line damaged permanently for a period of three month. System generated bill they never forget to send overlooking regular complaints by me.
During the month Feb'2011 Airtel negotiated with me that you deposit Rs. 1200/- as one time settlement, though you have not enjoyed the internet services due to damaged line, we have also checked zero usages on your number. I received repeated calls and finally I agreed to pay Rs. 1200/- in the form of donation to Airtel. Airtel sent their representative for collection of amount mutually agreed as one time settlement with the condition that within 24 hours your internet connection will be OK.
I paid Rs. 1200/- vide receipt no. 5487468 dated 08.02.2011 against phone no.[protected] and account no. 15739866.
After a lapse of 48 hours instead of reinstating services they ask for Rs. 64/- more balance. I told them that as per telephonic negotiations I have already given Rs. 1200/- to your representative, how this 64/- remained again. I refused to pay by saying that you give me in writing instead of telephonic conversation. They disconnect the phone by saying that you will never get the services.
What should I do in these circumstances

Sir/Mam

My telephone number is[protected] and from one months i am facing a problem of link failure in my airtel broadband, and it wifi is not working as worked earlier that means a range of less than 10 metre is supporting not beyond that.
I have complained 2 -3 time this month but your service engineer visits without a notification and also not on time allotted.
Recently i spoke to Mr. satrughan an airtel engineer from Raipur itself whose no. is [protected] reacted so rudely when i spoke to him.
i told him about my problem to solve it and from a month he is solving from their company itself and my problem is still a problem.


I would like you to look after my problem and solve it as a priority, and take actions against all raipur branches of airtel because of their
bad behaviour and less concern for their customer.
reply me A.S.A.P
