Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi Deepak,

The SIM is still not active and i have provided my contact no to the airtel customer care executive.

I have paid Rs500 /- and all necessary documents to the activation. I dont get any response from Airtel or the delear till now.

Deepak,

The reason for providing my contact no in customer care is because, the www.airtel.in/airtelpresence doesnt work at all. It always throws up any error or doesnt allow me to submit a complaint from it.

I recently got a mobile and a connection was offered to me for free by SUbhiksha mobiles. I furnished all the necessary details and got the connection. For the first few days it was working fine. I recharged with 400 rupees and got full talk value (offer). Then, I recharged with 99 (gprs offer). Suddenly, the connection went blank. Saying, it was unregistered. I had a balance of around 330 rupees in it. Therefore I went to Airtel Relationship center and complained. They asked me to wait. It was around 3 hours and I approached them again. They told me the concerned person was unavailable and asked me to come over again. I went again in the evening only to find out that it was not even the guy sitting in the counter. He was more like a clerk and told me to contact customer service center. I told him already I contacted them and they asked me to go to the Airtel Relationship center. He started swearing at the customer care people. Finally, he made the call to the customer care and told me to wait. Then, a lady at the counter asked me to come over and started to talk crap and I would assume was trying to assuage me with all pity. I felt too awkward, I was there for a complaint and they talk crap to you. I told them I wanted to meet their manager, which they told I had to wait. FInally, I got frustrated and gave them a sound blasting and walked away. DON'T EVER USE AIRTEL!

Airtel/Prepaid mobile service — Amount deduction without concurrence of customer

Many times the service provider is deducting the balance for value added services without any proper concern with the customer. Automatically the services are activated and the amount is deducted from the balance of the customer. Many times the value added services like Java games, Video downloads are activated where as the facility is not supported by the phone model which we are using. If we are complaining to the customer care they are not able to solve the problem.They are saying that the particular service is activated by the us(customer) and they can not refund the money. They are telling "You do what ever you can". If we are not able to contact the customer the same day, they are telling "The amount can be given back in the same day only, the next day it is not possible". Many times they are telling "we are refunding the amount within 4 hours" where as amount is not coming back, i[censored] are contacting again the same person will not come on line and the procedure is repeated and finally the amount will not come back. Because this we loosing our temper and wasting our valuable time mental peace. After of these conversations with the customer care we will be in tension and we are spoiling our relations in the office and at home also. Every time this is being repeated and we are loosing our time, money and health.

This is the same prob thats happening with me too. I've filed the complain with the customer care too. Even after giving the required time of 48 hrs that they needed for action, they failed to do such any. The customer complaint cell becomes useless in this case.

AirTel — Deactivation of Mobile Number

Hi
This is a complaint to AIRTEL PREPAID MOBILE, MADHYA PRADESH Circle that I had airtel prepaid number [protected] which I had purchased one year back. Now on 2 august they deactivated my number and when I asked to customer care about that then they told me that u did not use your number for 90 days ( may to july) so we deactivated your number. But the point is I am sure that I used that number frequently and I the month of May I used gprs on my number and from 24 july I continuously used my number till august. Not only this I used my number in the middle of it also. Now I do not want again activation of that number but I want justice as I am MBA final year student and my number was in placement brochure of my college and because of that I am suffering now.

Dear Mr. Rakesh Ranga
This is with reference to CBNRA[protected] that i got call from airtel and they offered me a compensation of Rs 50. For your kind information, i am demanding for the loss which i bear due to airtel not due to my fault. Moreover i am not a kid that you offer me a candy. I suffered from a loss of 1000. So, its my humble request to you to please give me a compensation of Rs 1000. If you are unable to do then let me know about it as soon as possible so that i put the matter in consumer court.
Thank you
with due regards

AirTel — Frequent Call Drop inside my home

I've taken 2 new airtel connections in the month of December 2008. I've heard of claims of very good signals from airtel and that was the prime reason i moved from vodafone to airtel.

But inside my house I'm just not able to talk. There is no signal at most times and some times there is a weak signal and call drops are very very frequent.

I made a complaint to the customer care on 13th December 2008 and I was told there was a problem with tower and they are setting up a new tower.

It's been 2 months now and I'm still facing the same problem.

Please help me

Sir/Madam,
I have been complaining about major network problems in my residential area (Lodha Paradise, Majiwada, Thane, Mumbai). No one from Airtel contacted me in the starting.

After a month, customer service department started calling me again and again about the complaint and registered more that thrice my complaint. No action was taken on this.

I got a call from customer service department again stating that they have resolved my problem by increasing the network in my area. After that the network started behaving in worse manner than before.

I have wasted my money in call drops and many other aspects of this service. Help me and your department in rectifying the problem.

AirTel — Network issues

Hi All,

i have kept compaining to airtel customer care from early 2009 on the network issues in banashankari, hoskote areas, where the signals are always less than 2 lines and most of the time it shows "no service" and unable to make or recieve calls most of the time.

till now airtel is just telling we are installing new towers and giving false promises. when i call the customer care they say we have visitied these areas and dint fine any issues.

but one of the person from network team did visit my place and when checked he clearly told the network is very poor at my locality and he will infrom airtel teams to rectify the issue.

after this survey also i dont see any change...

Hi,

I stay in new civic center, bhilai. We all have airtel connections and have been using them more than 5 years.

Initially we had no issues but from last 2 years we have raised many complaints to airtel and to local airtel partner about the network issues but all complaints are vain. No one from airtel is taking any effort to fix the issue. I am very unhappy with the way they are ignoring our concerns. I want to get this escalated within Airtel and in consumer forum.

Hi,

I have been using Airtel service for the past 4-5 months.
Its a Post paid connection as a coorporate connection.
I have already logged a complain regarding NETWORK ISSUSE to concerned authority.They had assured to resolve this issuse withing minimum time but its almost one and half month gone.
The status of complain is as usual.
I am facing a serious problem with network in my locality.

My Number : [protected]
My current Address : Block- EF30, 1522 Rajdanga Main Road, Kolkata-700107.

Waiting for some positive result from your side.

We submitted a complaint about a week back due to the constant network drops in a prime location such as BTM II Stage in Bangalore. A week into this no action has been taken and there is no network in our area. The customer service got back to us asking us to monitor this for 3 months and then if required they&#039;d change the tower itself.

This is unacceptable as we pay about 500 Rupees per month for 3G services and we aren&#039;t even getting the basic coverage. Neither are we able to make calls within the house nor use internet services when a week back we used to get full coverage. Is this the way you treat a platinum customer? What do you expect us not to make any calls for 3 months? Webpages loading at 2G speeds when I&#039;m shelling out 3G prices!

Airtel DTH — non resolution of technical problem

Till now I use to appreciate Airtel's Promptness in the services.
But my opinion is changed due to the response I got for my last complaint (in fact multiple ).
on 21-September-2010 I complained for "Error Code 2" I got a service request no 3973031. on 24th I got SMS saying that "your service request no 3973031 has been resolved " . But In reality no one visited my house. then on 24th itself I complained once again and this time I got a ref no 3962358. after making several calls and all the promises no one came till 26th. when I inquired the ref no 3973031 was reopened with msg "Wrong Resolution (Domino)" I have no idea what domino means . So as on 26th there were two requests open. on 27th I got 2 msg "your service request no 3973031 has been resolved" and "your service request no 3973031 has been resolved" one after other. And the problem is still not solved ,and no one has visited my house. In all this process I have made several calls (at least 30 - 35, this number is not exaggerated ) and I have got false promises all the time. Right now my service req no is 4002619 this was also promised to be solved 29th by 9pm on "high priority basis". But at 9pm I received a call from technician that he will visit before 9am today (30th ) ,no surprise to me ,no one has visited In the morning.
Technisian visited in the evening and he replaced the STB ,and told me within half an an hour it will get activated . But AIRTEL ditched me again, it has not been activated yet (1st Oct 2010).

AIRTEL DIRECT TO HOME — Untimely termination of telecast

I have purchased Airtel Direct To Home (DTH) in February-2011. I have been given customer ID - [protected]. I had paid Rs. 2700 initially to the supplier/installer which as per him included the one time cost of the set top box and transmission of a Package worth Rs. 225 for 6 months. With an additional combo of English movie channels the package worth 300 Rs. was supposed to be trasmitted to me for 4 months. Now its not even two months that the english channels have been terminated and I am getting a cutinuous recharge request from Airtel.

Airtel DTH — Non resolution of complaint

I had added top up of additional channels Discovery Science with Turbo,Fox Crime,Movies Now .
But the channels were not activated even after 24 hrs.I called cutomer care 23March 2011 ,they replied that dish realignment needs to be done ,only then the subscribed channels will be activated and that this shall be done within 5 days from the date of complain free of cost,some service engineer will contact me.But even after 5 days when complain was not attended,i again called up customer care ,they said it will b attended in 24 hrs.Again i called them on 29Marech 2011 ,they said it will take five more working days.I again called up the same day and asked why 5 days ,they gave some contact number of the local who is supposed to attend my call.But when contacted they gave me another number,which would not pick up the number when called.
This type of service is absolute non-sense...Even the custome care is paid,the toll free is always busy.Horrible service from Airtel..
My customer ID is [protected]..Hope the problem is resolved soon

AIRTEL DIRECT TO HOME — WORST SERVICES FROM AIRTEL D2H

Their is no one reponsible in Airtel

I have taken a new Airtel D2H connection on 3RD NOV 2010 and my customer id is [protected]. I called on 13.05.2011 for New connection for Multi room the call center executive confirmed me that connection will be added after collection of Rs 1000/- from me from my home.

After a day when i called they said it will start in 2-3 hours to collect the money and to install the New connection but to my utter surprise no one reverted or called me back for the same.

I again called on 16.05.11 for my status of request but i came to know that no request was lodged on 13.05.11. call center executive gave me request no as 27028 and confirmed me that payment will be collected within a day for the new connection but no one reverted till 18.05.11 evening,

Are all call center executives only makes fool of his exsiting customers, All companies are companing for their products for selling but i think airtel doesn't requires more customers, instead i am behind airtel, airtel should have behind me for the new connection, today's market trend.

today i shouted like anything on call center executive but again they say that they will get the same within a day
