This is an earnest request to you to save me from the harassment by your
esteemed organization. I left India on 22nd Aug for US and made a request to
convert my Postpaid number to yearly rental plan, as I wanted to continue with
Airtel when I return back. The customer service person took my request over the
phone, gave me a request no. and communicated that it has been done-from next
day (which eventually happens to be start of my next billing cycle), I will be
under the yearly rental plan.
After that request, they again initiated the process for submitting documents
and mail chains. They raised two more requests
45603219 by Jesintha Fernandes(cust care executive) WHICH was supposed to be
resolved by 3rd Sept. But when I wrote on 6th Sept to know the status, they
replied again with a new Service Request No. 45746162 by Aakash Gupta (cust
care executive).
In short it took 29 mails- 15 days- 3 official service requests from your
organization just for one small request and still the issue is unresolved; that too of a customer who is willing
to utilize the services of your organization in future by paying a yearly
rental even when he is not in India.
Every time, a new customer care executive attends the issue and it all starts
from the scratch- Same template driven mail, one more new service request and a
promise to resolve the request within 7 days.
If every service request is bound by an SLA, I demand an explanation what
happened to my earlier service requests. I am totally frustated by this torture
meted out to me by your organization. I have faced the same earlier when I
moved to US in 2010 and tried to move the same to yearly rental plan([protected]
- This is the same number which I was using then as well as now).
Request your urgent attention into this.

*****PLEASE NOTE THAT I WON'T BE REACHABLE ON MY NUMBER AS I AM IN US NOW.KINDLY DO NOT PROVIDE THE SOLUTION AS "WE TRIED REACHING YOU ON YOUR NUMBER BUT COULD NOT CONTACT YOU"******

    i had bought an airtel prepaid number [protected] from dhanashree mobile from Pune with necessary document.After it got deactived saying the documents needs to be submitted again.Again i submitted the necessary document in front of airtel representative but to my suprise it again deactived after one week.Now the Airtel service executives says that i cannot get this number again and they dont know the reason of barring of my number as it not mentioned on their system. I bought the sim only one month back, have submitted the documents and also made recharges on my number. I smell something fishy as mine is a golden number and someone from airtel wants to acquire mine number..i am determined to go to consumer forum as i have all the required documents of airtel

      Today I have got missed call in my mobile no. from [protected]. And there after I call back this number & some said that I have own 25Lakh from Airtel & after that I understand this is fake call. SO I disconnected the line. After that when I am checking my account balance, it is showing low. And for this reason I am not worried.

      But one news came some times before in TOI that if anyone call that number, which begins with +92, his SIM will be cloned & all the information of subscriber mobile will be copied to that SIM, where subscriber had called. So I am very much worried about the same, because some useful personal information have in my mobile.

      So if you kindly inform me that is it possible to copy & can it be harmful for me in future, I will be obliged to you.

      Bharti Airtel — fake call from pakistan

      from where they got our airtel no.????

      Hi my name is Hanuma from Hyderabad. I have also received this kind of call on both of my Airtel mobiles. But I didn't call them them because I knew that +92 belongs to Pakistan and I don't know one there. Here one interesting thing is I didn't receive such kind of calls on other numbers me and my family using which are not Airtel numbers. Now after checking so many comments on Internet I'm getting doubt are these guys have any connection with Airtel? Because all most all of the people who received these calls in recent time are using Airtel numbers (including ported number from airtel to other networks).

            I am using airtel 3G dongle since last 1.5 months with recharge of 255 which gives 1 GB data with 3G speed.It was working fine for the first month.
            When I recharged it second time with same tariff, its not working. The net connection is established but it shows speed of 1.1 Kbps - 1.6 Kbps .Also none of the page gets opened.The number is [protected].
            I have talked to customer care as well but no solution found since 2 weeks
            dear airtel
            have been using vodafone(rajasthan) for past 5 years and never had a bad experienced with them. but from last two months been shifted to dehradun got an airtel connection n from the very first day it is creating a mental trouble to me...

            1. you guys have activated the missed call alert with my permissions
            2. setting up the gprs setting was a bit tedious task.
            3. got 3g recharge almost 4 days back but nnot getting the desired speed.
            4 tried so many times to customer care it got connected and suddenly call drop then you guys dont have the decency to call back again. n if i tried again it dont get connect to the customer care.
            5 ur customer care executive have dont have the etiquette and manners to talk with the customers.

            n seriously m very much frustrated n irritated using ur services.

              Hi,

              I had been an Airtel Bangalore broadband customer with clear payment history for a quite long time the telephone number being [protected], I had to discontinue as I was relocating and I asked them to disconnect the broadband service they agreed to disconnect and after six months they call me and tell that the broadband connection has not been disconnected and I have to pay the outstanding bill of 4872 , I did not even turn on the modem assuming it has been disconnected. When I refuse to pay they threaten me with legal action. I am not sure what kind of ethics these so called telecom giant is following. I am not sure if Airtel is finding this way of making money by harassing the customers easier. I have copied the text from the email I got from Airtel customer care when I requested them for a disconnection.

              Can someone please suggest me what should I do?

                Dear Sir / Madam

                I have a prepaid mobile number [protected] which is getting recharged quite frequently with an amount of Rs 444 or Rs 500.

                To my surprise on Monday September 3,12 after I had recharged this mobile with Rs 444,I received a notice that unless I call *567# I will get charged
                Rs 98 after three days for an internet package of 1 GB. I promptly did as I have no need for this but I still got charged Rs 98. I was advised of
                this internet package charge by a SMS of Sept 7. This is completely unfair and illegal.

                Even though I have asked the supplier Airtel to reverse this charge of Rs 98 and advise me of the same either via a SMS or e-mails I am writing this complaint because it is charge by deception. Airtel will be required to change its procedure to charge for this packaged service. Instead of charging for this service with user unaware in case the mobile is turned off ,Airtel could send a sales pitch to activate this internet package. It will then be upto the discretion of the user if one wants the service. This is to request you to enforce this.

                Thanking you

                  Respected sir/ madam,

                  I am working in LIC of India in Amritsar. I have purchased a power plan CUG from airtel compan in 2010..
                  While selling this plan to me i was told the call rate from airtel to airtel mobile in 10 paise only.

                    AirTel — wrongful deduction for VAS

                    I have been wrongfully charged the rental of VAS i had never opted for (Airtel Friendz Chat, in my instance, for which 30/- was charged from me today) and what's more, I get rudely rebuffed by their customer care exec who insist I was 'Rightly charged'!.
                    No matter how much I tried reasoning that how could a service get activated without they getting any sort of confirmation from my end, they start loosing temper and start narrating technicalities! I have even been told with a shocking audacity that I could go to any level, but I was not going to get a refund in my case! Certain VAS seem to get automatically activated and the only information we get is that my account balance has been deducted by the rental charge!

                    My name is V. das and I am using Airtel mobile since 2003. I was always having problems but some how or other I am tolerating and now it is to much. pls look into my complain.

I RECEIVED CALL FROM VARIOUS NUMBERS AS BELOW BEFORE AND AFTER WHEN I WAS ASKED IF I WANT AIRTEL CONNECTION.

                      IMPORTANT:- ON 01/09/2012 FROM +[protected] AT 05:32 PM. ARROGANT AND THREATENING CALL. DID NOT TELL HIS NAME AND CUT OFF CALL WHILE COUNTER BLAMING ME .
                      IMPORTANT:- ON 01/09/2012 FROM +[protected] AT 07:22 PM. REQUESTING ME TO WAIT WITHOUT TELLING NAME AND THAT HE WILL LOOK AFTER THE MATTER TOMORROW.
                      IMPORTANT:- I APPRISED SOME MR. JATIN WHO FIRST ASKED ME TO PORT IN AND I THINK AND SUPPOSE HE IS THE PERSON FOR CALLING FOR PORTING IN IN AIRTEL ON 01/09/2012 FROM MY MOBILE TO HIS MOBILE +91-[protected] AT 09:23PM. AND HE ASKED THAT HE WILL REVERT BACK TOMORROW.
                      PLEASE LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF CALLS FOR A SINGLE PORTIN. EVERY TIME I WAS DISTURBED ASKING MY DETAILS TIME AAND AGAIN AS IF I AM A CRIMINAL. THE PERSON WHO THREATENED ME HAS CALL DETAILS AS FOLLOWS:-
                      IMPORTANT:- ON 01/09/2012 FROM +[protected] AT 05:32 PM. ARROGANT AND THREATENING CALL. DID NOT TELL HIS NAME AND CUT OFF CALL WHILE COUNTER BLAMING ME .( ALSO DETAILS GIVEN ABOVE ).
                      THIS SHOWS THAT AIRTEL WANTS TO BECOME ZEROTEL BY EMPLOYING SUCH KIND OF PERSONS WHO CAN USE ARROGANT AND THREATENING LANGUAGE JUST TO GET ONE CUSTOMER PORTIN. AND SO MUCH CALL AS EVEN MY SELF ATTESTED DETAILS HAVE BEEN HANDED OVER TO SOME CUSTOMER EXECUTIVE FROM AIRTEL NAME MR. KAMAL SINGH MOBILE –[protected]. HANDED OVER PAN CARD AND VOTER ID FOR PORT IN REQUEST TO HIM.”
                      THE AMAZING FACT IS THAT THE ATTITUDE AND BEHAVIOR OF CUSTOMER CARE OFFICIALS EITHER AT OUTLETS OF AIRTEL OR TO OR FROM ABOVE SAID NUMBER STILL HAVING ARROGANT AND NEGLIGENT ATTITUDE IT SELF CLEARLY MAKES SENSE THAT AIRTEL DOES NOT WANT TO IMPROVE EVEN THE APOLOGY LETTER BY THEM THROUGH MINISTRY OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS:-
                      Your Complaint is Successfully Registered. Note your Registration No. DPG/T/2011/80030.
                      SOMEWHERE AROUND MARCH” 2011 FOR WHICH I RECEIVED WRITTEN APOLOGY LETTER FROM AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE/NODAL OFFICER. I COULD HAVE GIVEN YOU EXACT DETAILS, BUT I SOMEHOW MISSED THE SAME AND FAILED TO SCAN WHICH I WILL DEFINITELY SEND YOU IN NEAR FUTURE AS SCANNED JPEG IMAGE.
                      NOW, POINT TO PONDER IS THAT WHAT REALLY AIRTEL WANTS. REAL CUSTOMERS OR INSULTING THEIR CUSTOMERS VIA THEIR CUSTOMER CARE EXECUTIVE CALLS TIME AND AGAIN AS ABOVE. THE ALL ABOVE CALLS STATED ABOVE ARE RECORDED WITH ME AND MOST OF THEM REPEATEDLY ASKING SAME QUESTIONS. WHAT DOES IT MEAN. DOES IT MEAN TO DISGRACE THEIR INCOMING CUSTOMERS WHO DESPITE HAVING WORST PAST EXPERIENCE AS NARRATED ABOVE STILL WANTS TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THEM , BUT AIRTEL DOES NOT WANT THE SAME AS IT HAS AGAIN SHOWN BY THEM THAT “TO HELL WITH CUSTOMERS”.
                      KEEPING ALL FACTS IN CONSIDERATION I REQUEST ALL CONCERNED TO IMMEDIATELY CANCEL MY PORTIN REQUEST AND SEND BACK MY DOCUMENTS HANDED OVER TO “THIS DAY 31ST AUGUST 2012 BY DSA SOME CUSTOMER EXECUTIVE FROM AIRTEL NAME MR. KAMAL SINGH MOBILE –[protected]. HANDED OVER PAN CARD AND VOTER ID FOR PORT IN REQUEST TO HIM.”
                      SO THAT THEY ARE NOT MISUSED BY ANYONE IMMEDIATELY BY TOMORROW BY 05:00 PM.ELSE I WILL BE FORCED TO FILE AN FIR FOR THE SAAME TO GET THEM. FURTHER FROM THE TIME I SUBMITTED DOCUMENTS FOR THE PORTIN FROM THE DAY AND TIME ANY MISUSE AFTER THEM IS SOLELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF AIRTEL AND SAME IS BEING CONVEYED VIA FIR AT NEAREST POLICE STATION AS MY DEFENCE AS I AM AFRAID THAT THEY MIGHT BE MISUSED.
                      IF AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE OFFICIALS WHETHER AT AIRTEL OUTLETS OR AT CUSTOMER CARE CALL CENTRES START BEHAVING IT IS MY MORAL DUTY TO APPRISE WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME BY ANY MEDIA VISUAL, PRINT , INTERNET SOCIAL FORUMS, CONSUMER FORUMS, TO CAUTION PEOPLE OF REPUBLIC OF INDIA
                      STILL THANKS AND REGARDS.

                      Sir,
                      With utmost regrets, I am writing this complaint against such a reputed company taken as pioneer in telecom and internet provider company in India. It is indeed a surprise to note and to let it come in your notice that such a reputed company who is spending crores of rupees in getting more and more customers .Further to emphasize that I am doctor by profession involved in looking after critically ill patients and may not be able to receive call till 4:30PM , hence it is requested that any official who is deputed for the same must call me after 4:30PM the era of such a tight competition to have more customers either for land line or internet provider but when some customer reaches any of your outlets response is like as if they are saturated and don’t want any more customers. Details are enclosed as an attachment with chronological events in MS word. Last talk to customer care number[protected] on 4th February with floor supervisor Mr. Saji Floor supervisor at around 4:30PM and specifically requested to record the conversation for better services and interpretation to avoid any communication gap. After making him apprise of previous facts he gave me complaint number 42685758. Further to emphasize that I am doctor by profession involved in looking after critically ill patients and may not be able to receive call till 4:30PM , hence it is requested that any official who is deputed for the same must call me after 4:30PM.Further to emphasize that I am doctor by profession involved in looking after critically ill patients and may not be able to receive call till 4:30PM , hence it is requested that any official who is deputed for the same must call me after 4:30PM.Without emphasizing more on your worst ever sought customer care by any service provider me I wish to end this complaint with the request that guilty person should be dealt within norms and rules of your company and KINDLY LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND REVERT ME ON MY E- MAIL ID AS GIVEN ABOVE. NON RECEIPT OF RESPONSE WILL ITSELF BE PRESUMED THAT AIRTEL IS LEAST CONCERNED WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR PROBLEMS.
                      Dr. Anil Thakur
                      AIRTEL DIARY
                      1. ON 30TH JANUARY 2011 AT AROUND 1:20 PM VISITED AIRTEL OUTLET ADJACENT TO SPICE TELECON DE-85 NAJAFGARH MAIN ROAD, TAGORE GARDEN, NEW DELHI. STAFF WAS LEAST CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENTRANCE OF CUSTOMER AND I PRESUME THAT DESPITE BEING SUNDAY THE SAME MARKET REMAINS OPEN ON SUNDAYS AS PER NORMS OF THAT AREA. ALL THE THREE CHAIRS WERE VACANT AND SOME ONE SITTING ON SOFA DID TALK TO ME NAME? I MISSED TO ASK. IT’S SHAMEFUL ON PART OF AIRTEL THAT SUCHCKIND OF CALLOUS TREATMENT IS BEING OFFERED TO THEIR CUSTOMERS WHO ENTER THE SHOWROOM WITH SOME KIND OF GOOD EXPECTATIONS AND WARM GESTURE FROM THE STAFF. KINDLY LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND REVET ME ON MY E- MAIL ID AS GIVEN ABOVE. NON RECEIPT OF RESPONSE WILL ITSELF BE PRESUMED THAT AIRTEL IS LEAST CONCERNED WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR PROBLEMS.HOWEVER AS MY QUERY WAS ABOUT POSTPAID CONNECTION WITH BROAD BAND HE DID SAY THAT NO POST PAID CONNECTION IS AVIALBLE THERE.
                      THANKS AND RGARDS.
                      DR. ANIL THAKUR.
                      2.SAME DAYON 30TH JANUARY 2011 DID CALL[protected] AND SOME MR. IMRAN WAS ONLINE AT AROUND 1:30PM AND REQUESTED HIM TO TELL ME ABOUT THE FEASIBILITY OF FAVIALABILITY OF CONNECTION. HE SAID THAT HE IS NOTING DOWN MY INFORMATION AND THAT I WILL GET RESPONSE WITHIN 72 HOURS.. I REQUESTED HIM TO PLEASSE RECORD THE CALL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE COZ THE PLAN HE TOLD ME WAS THAT AT RS.1399/- PLUS TAXES I SHALL BE GETTING 25 GB DOWNLOAD FREE WITH GAURANTEED SPEED OF 25 MBPS AFTER WHICH THE SPEED WILL DECREASE TO 256 KBPS.HE GAVE REFERNCE NUMBER AS 8985234 AND ONE MORE NUMBER WHICH I COULD NOT WRITEDOWN FOR LACK OF PEN AND PAPER.
                      3. SAME DAYON 30TH JANUARY 2011 A PERSON STATING THAT HE IS FROM AIRTELL DID COME TO MY RESIDENCE AT AROUND2:00PM AND SAID HE WILL SEE IF THE CONNECTION CAN BE GIVEN AND THAT HE WILL RETURN SOON. BUT TILL 3:11 AS I AM WRITING THIS MAIL THERE WAS NO RESPONSE AND AS HE TOLD THAT HE WILL REVERT BACK I COULDN’T ASK HIS NAME TOO.( MY FAULT).
                      IT IS SHOCKING TO LEARN THAT COMPANY OF SUCH REPUTE AAS AIRTEL ONE OF PIONEER COMPANY TO PROVIDE MOBILE IN INDIA IS NOW SO SATURATED AS TO PROVIDE ANY NEW CONNECTION AND THE SAME HAS NEVER BEEN COMMUNICATED IN ANY OF THEIR ADVERTISEMENTS RATHER ASKING TO OPT FOR CONNECTION. FURTHER THAT NOW IT IS NOW CLEAR THAT ONE CAN CHANGE THEIR OPERATOR AND SUCH KIND OF RESPONSE BY COMPANT BEASR BAD NAME IN REPUTATION OF THE COMPANY IN THE MARKET AND I THINK MARKETING/ADVERTISING INCHARGE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR SUCH KIND OF WRONG AND MISDIRECTING ADVERTISEMENTS.

                        Address: Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu

                        Please note that I had tried to recharge my mobile number - [protected] today (7th September 2012 - Morning ) through your website https://pay.airtel.com/PrepaidOnlineRecharge/mobileRecharge.jsp.

                        The transaction failed but yet the amount was deducted TWICE from my SBI credit card - Total 900 INR. from my SBI credit Card.

                        The recharge amount for which I tried to recharge was - 3G Internet Recharge - 450 INR. But the Surprising thing is that the amount was deducted TWICE from my SBI credit card - Total 900 INR.

                        Your customer care asked me to contact the bank. I am totally confused.

                        Please do the needful to refund the amount ASAP - Kindly check the attached screenshot - of my SBI credit card transaction list for further clarification.

                              Airtel Brod band — false billing

                              I was a User of Airtel Brod band connection. Fisrt I was using 128 kbps unlimited plan, but after 1 or 2 months I got a call from Airtel for a upgradation. They offered me 777 plan which is 2mbps speed with 4gb free usage. Generaly I use to sit at my office from 12:30 PM to 1:30 AM (near about 13hrs) But when I got the monthly bill it was more than Rs 5500/-, Which is I think impossible because I generaly use only to check my e-mails like hot mail, orkut & yahoomail that to after 1:30AM for 1 or maximum 2hrs. But in the bill most of the usage timing are between 7:00pm to 11:00 PM. If I use to stay at my office from 12:30PM to 1:30AM then how can i use my internet during 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM. I asked them for an Explanation for the billing . They told me "We'll provide you shortly" and after that they never called me back. And I didn't pay because I knew that the bill is fake. After that Explanation they didn't told me for the bill & the next month I got another bill where the amount was Rs 11700/-. Again I called them & asked for an explanation because this time they have done same thing. And after my 2nd call they still didn't called my back for that explanation. But 2 days back 23/09/2008 I got a call from some one who called him self as sub inspector Raghubir Singh from Dariyaganj police station. He told Me I have arrest warrant for you, as I was completely unaware of this I asked for the reason. Then he gave me the advocates phone no. I called that person who called him self Neeraj Goel "Advocate told me as You didn't pay the Airtel brodband Bill for that reason Airtel Bharti file a case against you. I explain everything about my problem even that explanation i was asking them. Advocate said Airtel didn't treet you fairly. You can talk to there Legal Adviser Mr Sushil Sharma. I meet Mr Sushil Sharma I asked him for a out of court settlement. I explained him about my problem & I request him to have a look where is problem on my bill. But his behaviour was so rude he told "Its a police case You have to pay whatever the billing amount is, we can't do anything, any how you have to pay right now.I request him that I can give you 2 post dated cheque for two different months that I can servive in Noida at least" At that time I was scared about police so I gave him a post dated cheque of Rs8000/- for 30/09/2008. But at afternoon by 4:00 or 5:00PM I came to know some one from Airtel that the police officer who called me that advocate all are fake. They all are airtel employes and its there procedure of collection. Only for them my mental status was so bad i didn't concentrate on my work also. Then I made a request to my Bank for stop payment of my cheque, because they want to collect there money in a worng way. I have asked them for an explanation which they didn't gave. Airtel are cheating there customers. Airtel want to make money with fraud billing & cheating there customers. Now I want you to help me.

                              AirTel — Irrelevant Bills being sent

                              I got dissconeted Airtel Landline no. 4252168 on 8.3.10 vide complaint for concellation no. 30275220 and was given dissconection no. 30290306 on 8.3.10 and was told that my connection has been dissconected.

                              Later in the month of April I again got a call telling me that at the time of dissconection Mach Bill was not generated so, please, pay upto 9th of March.I thought it logical and paid that Bill also.

                              Aitel again started harassing me for last two months with further with calls for payment. I gave them Dissconection no. and the caller said OK now you will not be bothered with such call. But after some pause again call for payment started coming and I am really tired of such calls.

                              THERE IS NO CONNECTION OF AIRTEL IN MY HOUSE BUT THEY KEEP ON BOTHERING ME.AND CALLER ALSO ACCEPTS THAT NO CALL ARE BEING MADE BUT INSIST FOR PAYMENT. PLEASE SEE THAT SUCH CALL ARE STOPPED.

                              send a mail to all of them together and also mention that if it is not resolved you will be going to consumer court and filing a case. Also call some of them and tell the same thing.
                              Also try going to a center and tell them the issue.
                              Lets hope the issue is resolved.
                              Hi,

                              This is with regards to false billing which has been billed to me.

                              the Customer service has been informed several times on the same but they are not ready to accept my Justification.

                              I have all the proofs to justify my side.

                              Attached are my proof o[censored]sage. & the email communication are pasted below.

                              Thanks

                              Hi,

                              I have tried to reach out to the mentioned nodal office. Had no luck on the
                              same.

                              Please look to it gets resolved at the earliest.

                              Its sad to say that i have got a notification for LEGAL NOTICE for the
                              mentioned issue.

                              I think i need to put this on consumer forum.

                              Thanks & Regards

                              Hi,

                              I am yet to hear it from the nodal officer.

                              I will not pay this irrelevant bill.

                              Please disconnect my connection, if it cannot be taken care.

                              Thanks & Regards

                              This is the reason with airtel why dont take up a airtel postpaid connection.

                              Looks like i have made a mistake....taking up the AIRTEL 3G data card.

                              This issue was been discussed with the first, nd the agent had agreed to the
                              fact that its an error.

                              Thanks & Regards

                                AIRTEL TELEMEDIA SERVICES — Worst services by Airtel Broadband

                                Hello,

                                Myself Rahul Prasad from Hyderabad, I was using AIRTEL broadband connection number[protected], Due to irregular billing pattern by Airtel Telemedia Services after first cycle even after multiple reminders to Airtel costumer care, Airtel Telemedia Services failed to provide bill for payment for 2nd and 3rd consecutive months neither by post or email, Later line was disconnected by Airtel without any information. Referring to the concern, I had written multiple emails to Hyderabad Nodal officer Mr. Vishnu after detailed telephonic conversation, I requested Mr. Vishnu to withdraw the connection completely and close account.

                                Now, after 7 months I received a call from recovery agent to pay outstanding bill, though Airtel Telemedia Services has not yet provided any bill till date.

                                I am willing to lodge a complain against Airtel Telemedia Service for failure of poor service and calling through recovery agents for unbilled payment recovery.

                                Kindly advice,

                                Thanks,

                                Rahul Prasad

                                  Looks like you guys can't stop cheating your customers. I am on a 16mbps line and noticed that you have the same speed available at a lesser price. Requested your team to switch to that plan but they come back telling me that they can't switch as those plans are not available in my area??? Team Airtel, you really think your customers are fools and can't figure your cheap tactics to make money... pathetic. Stop wasting time making cute adverts and start focusing on your products and services. Shame on you folks.
                                  I have activatd airtel gprs and using it, but on airtel gprs there are not charges applicable for it, only the weekly charge of Rs.75/- has to be deducted but the charges are taken extra while i use it, and to refer to the sustomer care i couldnt get on line, they have informed to send a message but there is no use of it the customer care is utter waste.

                                  AirTel — Cheating customers

                                  I am a prepaid Airtel subscriber, my Tel. no [protected]. I am short of words to express my feelings about this company, I can say THIS COMPNAY IS A BIG FRAUD, I have complained several times that I have not down loaded any thing from my mobile inspite of my repeated complaints to their customer service, my account is regularly being debited, now this fraudulent company has the guts to show a debit balance in my prepaid accont, this is the level to which this company can stoop to. I can only say that this company is using technology to pick peoples pockets.
                                  every day I had been receiving filthy unromantics messages, cricket scores, and lousy jokes. I had been to their office in Chembur, Mumbai, it was filled with customers having similar complaints.
                                  I deposited Rs.64/-(Trn id[protected],on[protected] to avail the scheme of 1paise/sec
                                  for 1year.Surprisingly ,on 3.12.2009,4.-12-2009 &[protected] AIRTEL sent me SMS for availing 50paise/min,which is absolutely USELESS for my requirement.On[protected],in all of my outgoing calls for even 21 secs,5 secs,and so on Airtel deducted forcefully 50 paise per call,instead of 21 paise,5 paise respectedly,which is highly irregular,because while AIRTEL is enjoying my deposit for Rs.64/- for 1 /sec plan,but imposing forcefully another plan ,which I have neither been wanted,nor been accepted.It is a serious offence to a customer for stealing money without his concent & acceptence,neglecting the facility for which a CUSTOMER opted & deposted money.
                                  This illegal stealing is highly punishable ,since AIRTEL is creating financial & mental loss to a bonafide customer . I request to stop this type o[censored]nauthorised stealing & get back the excess amount illegally deducted at earliest,and restore the facility for Rs.1 paise/sec,for which AIRTEL is enjoying my deposit for 1 year,under intimation to me.,faililg which severe legal steps will be taken & complain will be sent to higher authorities.

                                  AirTel — cheating of customers

                                  Respected Sir/Madam,
                                  I am a working employee. I am using the Airtel Mobile services. Today[protected] i have recharged with 30 ruppes. My father health is not good. When i was in the meeting in my office, i got the call from one mobile number [protected]. I didn't pick the call because i was in the meeting. after completion of the meeting, i recalled to the same number. i thought anyone of my friend had called me. when i called to that number, it is saying "welcome to hello tunes'. i immeadiatley has cut the phone. i got the message , "welcome to hello tunes you have been charged 10 rs for 10 days subscription. Immediatley i got another message saying "you have been charged rs.15. your hello tune has been changed to some new song. Again i got the message saying, " thank you for calling 530309". I actually have called to the mobile number which i have got when i was in the meeting. i didn't know that it is airtel's number. i can i recognize whether that calling was coming from the airtel or anyone of the person. That too i have not called to above number 530309. When the customer call to [protected] number , they are charging call charges rates and also 25 rupees extra. They have cheated me. My father health is not good now. how can i contact my family now. recharges are not available near by. How can these airtel people can charge me 25 rupees without intimating.

                                  Please take an action on these people. And it should not be happen to the any of the other customers. Evey rupee is valuable for every citizen. And also i am expecting my money back which they have charged.

                                  Thanks and Regards,
                                  P.Nagaraju,
                                  Mob:- [protected].
                                  I am using a airtel pre paid sim from past 6.5 years, Recently since 6 months there is a regular problem of call drop, charging excess all the time and some time you are not able to dial any number (gives a voice message,"Number is invalid") and you are charged for that as 1 call. recently i started keeping a tab on this, and i found out that, Airtel guys are cheating pre paid customers big time. When contacted support and logged complaints several times, nothing happens, the only reply we get is, "We are extremely sorry, we can understand your problem", and the customer support executives have started a new practice, when they are unable to answer the customer, they put the customer on hold for some time and then disconnect.

                                  All my Customers/friends/relatives have the same number, i am in such a helpless situation, that i cant even change the number. and in spite of paying airtel, i am very Irritated.

                                  Hope Airtel looks at this message a tries to work on their Customer support and Not cheat people instead.

                                  Airtel Mobile Services — Poor quality of service and cheating

                                  Dear Sir / Madam:

                                  I have three mobile connections with Bharti Airtel ([protected], [protected] and [protected]) and the servicd stinks to say the least. It stinks so much that it worse than rotting garbage. I have made so many complaints and all I get is the same cliched message. That they care about customers and will leave no stone unturned to solve the issues. But, at the end of the day, it is business as usual. I am sure a lot many like me have had the same experience as me. We are waiting for the day when mobile portability will be introduced. Then it will be a good bye or should it be a bad bye to this lousy enterprise. I fervently hope that the organisation shuts shop and disappears from the horizon.

                                  With best regards.

                                  AirTel — Cheating the Customers

                                  The main issue is that slowly increase the call rate, without informing the customers. No more favorable schemes in that call flow.
                                  I have been an airtel mobile customer for more than 5+ years. Today i discover that a conference calling facility that has been free for the entire customer base has been Rs.100 for me for the last one year because i did not intimate them to cancel it. When i requested a reason for not letting me know when the the service has been free, they were fumbling and could not give me a fair reason.

                                  Means that if i would not have intimated now, i would have be royally cheated for the rest for my life.

                                  thanks to no. portability, i have decided to quit airtel.
                                  On 3rd march 2011 Airtel service deducted Rs.15 from my no.[protected] ,Whereus I didn't activated it from my side.So I request airtel service to refund my money.I called customercare they told [application down]then how Airtel will serve people?.

                                  AirTel — Cheating the customer

                                  My Mobile No. is[protected]. Without my permission or request or confirmation Airtel is robbing me of my money by RENEWING WORLD CUP SCHEDULER SUBSCRIPTION daily. I was browsing my net on mobile on 11.04.2011 and without my knowledge and confirmation I was sent a message confirming my subscription for WORLD CUP SCHEDULER, which I had not opted for. From then on daily I am receiving a message that WORLD CUP SCHEDULER IS RENEWED and I have been charged. And intelligently they are not giving me a link to UNSUBSCRIBE the service. This is not the first time that this is happening. It has happened many times before, but because of lack of time, I let them go.

                                  I had been contacting 121, daily since 11.04.2011, to kindly deactivate the SUBSCRIPTION, but to no avail. The Executives are unable to take any action on the complaint or they do not want to take any action. On 14.04.2011, I was promised by Airtel that the SUBSCRIPTION has been cancelled and I will get a confirmation report within 4 hours. That has not happened and I am still receiving SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL MESSAGES.

                                  I request you to please stop WORLD CUP SCHEDULER SUBSCRIPTION immediately, and refund the money which has been collected from me UNAUTHORISEDLY. This amounts to Cheating and Fraud. If no action is taken immediately I will be compelled to publish the same matter in all leading NEWSPAPERS.

                                  Thanks

They told this service will effect within 45 days you will not receive any calls and SMS from our side. Till now I received the sms and calls from AIRTEL. Last 15 days back I have complained again they told it will stop by 25th May but I received calls and sms till now.

                                  I got the end date for this complaint on 8th june. If it is clarified I will satisfy otherwise I wont satisfy .
                                  Airtel has charged extra Rs3416 for data usage as the plan that I am currently under has a limit of 300MB (monthly GPRS rental of Rs 99) and my usage has been 800MB. So they have charged for 500MB usage. At the same time, Airtel has another plan that provides a limit of 2GB with a monthly rental of Rs 98. So basically customers who are unaware of the new plan continue to be charged huge sums so that Airtel can make a profit. In spite of speaking to multiple representatives from Airtel regarding this billing, I have been unable to make them see any reasoning. Kindly help put an end to ths exploitation of customers by Airtel.

                                  Airtel — Cheating customers and charging without providing service

                                  My email to Airtel (self explainatory):

                                  I have still not received a response from you even though you apologised for delayed response and confirmed that i will get a response by 17th. JUst to remind you that you have already taken more than 40 days since the issue was escalated to the appellate authority. Therefore marking all id's i could find hoping someone is sensible in airtel and cares to respond to its customers honestly!

                                  I finally got one from your customer service team (I dont expect to start interacting with them again and dont understand why you have appellate authority if this is going to be investigated by customer service anyway?)

                                  The response i have received is frivolous and just says that the bill is correct because u have a state of the art billing system. Just want to remind you that your state of the art system has not been able to provide connectivity for 3 months and your amazing billing system has continued to charge me. I dont know if you have any sensible people in Airtel who can understand plain english over the telephone or email!!!

                                  As per your email itself, there was no outstanding on 23rd Jul. how are you sending me the bill now??? does it make any sense to you? you are also aware that the connection is not working for 3 months and i have already paid for 2 months for which you should refund my money as you have not provided the service!!!

                                  Your processes are exceptionally poor, over last three months i have been following up with Customer service, then nodal officer, then appellate office and i am now routed back to customer service.. are you just trying to harrass customers and force them to log cases against you in consumer forum and courts? i have been requesting for a cancellation of this connection for two months... why have you not been cancelling it despite paying all dues a month and a half ago (which you should not have charged in the first place if you were honest as you didn't provide the service)

                                  You should be ashamed!
                                  Hi Sunil,

                                  I have been a customer with Airtel for the past 7 years and I am absolutely horrified by the abysmally pathetic service Airtel offers me in terms of quality of service (mobile), and the sheer incompetence and lack of professionalism of its customer care department. The past 3 months have been a horrendous experience for me and I would like to bring to your attention the same.

                                  It all started with my network related complaint that I raised on the 18th of May. Due to the poor network, I am having to spend late nights at office for calls with my customers located in the US. All this when I could get to the comfort of my house and receive the same. Your team has not bothered to action this complaint for over two and a half months and every time I call them they inform me that they are escalating to the technical, which I now know is a farce. Finally, during the week of august 15th a technician visit my home and took some readings and only to not hear back from Airtel again.

                                  I have escalated the matter with your nodal and appellate authorities in the customer "dont" care department but to no avail. Everybody within your appellate office (Leo Arvind, Anil, Ramesh) makes false promises of call backs with updates on the issue but none what-so-ever came from them. These are my issues with Airtel:

                                  1. Airtel's customer "dont" care department lacks any professionalism and commitment to resolving customer issues. The escalation authorities are also just as impotent.
                                  2. The appellate officers (Leo Arvind, Anil and Ramesh) refuse to bring their manager Sharath Damani on the call saying they will not do it. So I cannot escalate to the next higher level authority.
                                  3. Because of Airtel's poor network and lack of commitment to resolve it, I've had to spend sleepless night at my workplace, while I could be spending time with my family.
                                  4. Because of Airtel's poor network, I've had to make 4-5 extra calls for every call because of calls drops and poor voice quality.
                                  5. Airtel disconnected my mobile connection without informing about the same.

                                  My Position:
                                  1. 70% of my calls are made from home, as I have a fixed line desk connection at office which I use while I am at office. I am ready to pay for good service which I have received 30% of the time which translates to 30% of my bill value.
                                  2. If customers are charged a fine for late payment of bills, then Airtel should also pay a fine for non-actioning a customer complaint. It is only but fair.

                                  I have had a horrid 2 months with airtel and need a resolution to this issue.

                                  I look forward to some action at least from your side.

                                  Regards,
                                  Upendra Thayi

                                  Bharti Airtel — Have not refunded my money since two and half months

                                  Hi,

                                  Initially I had applied for an Airtel Broadband connection sometime in the first week of July. They finally after one month at the end of July told me that the connection is not available and told that the money that I had paid will be refunded within 15 day. But it has been more than a month and I have not received my money.

                                  When we call them they say someone will call within a day but from inception till now no one has called me regarding this issue, or most of the time they just hang up the phone, and calling them again is very irritating. And actually I am writing this complaint when I am waiting for someone to escalate the call and its been like around half an hour that no one has responded and I'm still on line.

                                  The latest complaint number that was given to me is 2709550. Please help me out with this is the worst customer experience I have faced till now.
                                  I have been receiving multiple communications to you on my phone ([protected]) and email id. I have also written to all your appellate authorities(exactly the email copied above which you should have been able to locate had you read the email above). You also had all my contact details including my phone, two emails as well as physical address linked to my account and you should have been able to pull it up had you checked email to appellate authority. Is it really that difficult?

                                  Can you stop giving these excuses and try to resolve it?? all the details are already in your records including multiple emails to all in Airtel and i am tired of explaining the details to every new person who calls. And then they dont do anything.

                                  AirTel — Abysmally poor customer care services

                                  I am a professional in Chennai - I possess 2 mobile connections, 2 ipad connections, 1 broad band and one land line all from Airtel. And i am extremely ashamed to be an airtel customer. For each of these connections I had to visit airtel office in Santhome at least 10 times , talk to 121 to about 40 representatives and wait for a week before the connection gets functional. And i am certainly to blame my stupidity for still continuing with airtel. Yesterday at the Santhome office I requested for a change of one of my connections from blackberry to iphone 4 and also for a microsim. The chap who attended to me after about 45 min of waiting ( Mr.Aseem or Asin) told me that the microsim is activated and the change of plan to iphone will come to effect at 7.00 am the following day. At 7.00am i called some one on 121. she told that she'll try to look into it and then speed up the process. At 9.00 I called another male this time. He told that he is activating the SIM and will take 4 hrs for activation. Soon he called me up and told me that the sim ahs been activated. But nothing happened. I then went to the Santhome centre where i was told that they'll activate the sim and it'll take 6 hours from then. 4 hours later i called 121, a lady repiled this time and told that the sim has not been activated and will try her best to do so. It's amazing how disjointed airtel services can be,. They are making simple fools o[censored]s customers. Airtel seems to employ sub-standard personnel who have no idea what they are doing. It's a shame. Such service quality is unheard of in UK, Europe or Malaysia. I am just disgusted. Even services in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka where i worked are far more better. There seems to be a complete lack of some central administrative system. It's time Airtel either closed shop in India or learn some basic administrative methodology.

                                  AirTel — Cheating with Customer

                                  Dear Sir,

                                  As for the information i have to inform you that i am the customer of Airtel since 1 year.
                                  Since last week i am very unhappy with the service provided by airtel as it's deducting money from account every now and then of 10 paisa to 60 paisa (it varies from time to time) with out any usage of anything. I am so confused that why it's deducting money from my account. And even i have balance in my account it's coming that " U don't have sufficient balance to make the call." More ever few days back it has deducted around Rs. 134 with out any reason.

                                  We are a startup company based at Vaishali Ghaziabad. Our broadband is not working for past 4 days, we have registered complaints multiple times (reference id 34570508, 34511094, 34491830,[protected]. It is really unfortunate that despite charging hefty amount, the irresponsible customer relationship officers close the ticket without giving resolution.

                                  If any senior in Ghaziabad (ncr) circle is able to see this complaint, we expect immediate action on this problem. This really look ugly if a big brand like Airtel handles its customers so carelessly. Closing the ticket without our consent and charging customers without giving services is no less than cheating.

                                  Thanks

                                    PUBLIC NOTICE TO BHARTI AIRTEL

                                    M/s Bharti Airtel

                                    Sirs

                                    My mobile number [protected] was charged Rs 99 this morning by at 11.19 am for supposedly subscribing to a service called MODEL VIDEO CLUB_30

                                    Upon calling your service centre number [protected] I was informed that this charge was made by Airtel on behalf of Nazara.com

                                    I have never visited this website nor have I authorised them to charge me for any service

                                    The Airtel help line person who answered my call from my mobile at 11.39 am (Mr Roshan) was prompt in assuring me the charges would be reversed once he ascertained that I had not authorised this charge

                                    What I bring to your notice is that there seems to be a systemic and large scale fraud being perpetrated by this website among others and that Airtel seems to be doing nothing to blacklist such websites.

                                    I want you to be warned that failure to act in this regard and blacklist such websites immediately will lead to a class action suit against Airtel.

                                    I await your immediate response confirming that this website has been blacklisted and will not be able to commit fraud on other subscribers of Airtel.

                                    In case you fail to take action and the site continues to defraud others, it will mean that Airtel is in collusion with such websites to defraud its customers and such an act will amount to a criminal conspiracy on part of Airtel

                                    I await your response

                                    Sincerely
