            Hi,

            I will request you to file a complaint against Airtel gallery in 4 bunglows, opposite Kokilaben hospital, Mumbai.

            There has been a serious case of misconduct, wrong and misleading information by your store.

            We had bought Airtel mify (hotspot) from your store in November 2020. When we bought it we were told that the hotspot doesn’t support prepaid connection and we will have to only buy a postpaid one.

            We agreed to it then and went ahead with our postpaid connection.

            Since our hotspot wasn’t getting used today (April 3rd 2021), we wanted to cancel it. So I went to the gallery in the morning again.

            Out of curiosity I asked them again if I can just convert this into prepaid. They said it’s not possible. He told me that you can take a free sim card with this pack since it’s not getting utilised. I agreed to it and activated a new SIM card.

            When I googled I realised that repaid can be used on mify hostpot.

            I went again for cancellation or conversion to prepaid.

            Things I was told by your executive which were misleading by your executive during my 2nd visit in the day:

            1. You have just activated a new sim card it’s against our polices to cancel it for 120 days. So we can’t take a cancellation request.

            2. You cannot use prepaid SIM cards on Airtel Mifi as it uses a hybrid sim card which comes along with the router.

            3. In case you use a prepaid SIM card it might work for a while but will later start giving issues because of there is bandwidth difference between both and the router will not support it.

            We had a long argument where I asked them to show me proof about what they are saying. After arguing back and failing to provide with any proof they agreed to cancel my sim cards and provide me with a new pre paid simcard.

            Just to let you know the prepaid simcard it’s working absolutely fine.

            I want both my numbers cancelled. I am not paying a single penny of my unbilled amount. I want a strict action to be taken against the Airtel gallery and their employees for the malpractices being followed.

            If this doesn’t happen I will post this all over social media and go to consumer court for providing us with Misleading information.

                    I(Dr. Reeta Rani Jha) had taken my Airtel no [protected] with broadband connection having DSL ID[protected]_dsl and plan Airtel-UL-Xstream Basic 799 Unlimited GB
                    (100Mbps/1024Kbps) COMBO Plan on 29 Sep 2020 for three months. For this, I paid Rs2828 (bill attached) and also got free modem for taking a three-month subscription. This expired on December 30 2020, and I again took a three-month subscription by paying
                    Rs 2828 on January 4.

Post this I shifted to another place on 7th Feb 2021, and consequently applied for the transfer of my Airtel broadband connection, but due to feasibility issues I could not get the connection transferred to my new address. I then applied for discontinuation of the service on 10th of February 2021, and received a confirmation from Airtel customer care that my Airtel broadband connection has been deactivated, and I would get refund for my extra payment of 47 days within 45 days at most.
                    All of this I had mailed to Airtel customer care email address [protected]@airtel.com and they gave me a reference number[protected] for the complaint and assured that they will resolve the issue before 3rd of April 6 PM. They asked for these documents: -
                    1) Bank Cheque
                    2) Bank Account Number and other bank details
                    in order to refund my money.I responded the mail with all required document but the matter is still unresolved and I never received a refund even after their final deadline of[protected], 6 pm.

                      Fed up of calling the Airtel customer executives, requested the complaint a week ago but still no response has been received. Mailed their department for the same, still no reply.
                      Raised a complaint for the above reason, here’s the reference number- 9303124

                      Most important, the Airtel payment bank executives are useless! They don’t know a thing. I wish I could record there calls. Recording anyone’s call without there permission is illegal so I dropped the idea.

                        On 31.03.21 evening, i changed my One Airtel plan, after paying all charges as told by executive at Airtel outlet itself and changed from postpaid to prepaid, also recharged for those numbers by the executive itself, they told ur DTH service will be cut shortly, after that u can recharge for Rs 205, like that I recharged for Rs 250 on 1st April morning, once I checked at Airtel thanks app, it shows my primary balance as Rs 46 valid till 6th April, when contacted through 121 or 12150, prepaid executive told the deduction is not their side, u contact oneairtel section, getting connection to executive is a tedious process, when contacted one Airtel executive, they told there side no issues, you contact prepaid section again, this play goes till today
                        I had a bad experience of automatically closing of tickets raised for poor net connectivity 4 times without resolved which forced to come out of the plan. Poor response for exorbitant charges, unbearable for common people

                              Dear Sir,
                              iam not satisfy with your Internet Network
                              Coverage n Data Packs...Hence, i thought to move to BSNL...then i have started
                              to send SMS to 1900 for Porting...
                              but, iam not able to send only for 1900... "message Could not sent" is showing...tried 10 time...

                              Thing is I am able to send all the message but not only to 1900

                              I don't think so it's ethical practice
                              And I am trying to call the customer care no but everytime just not able to connect threw any no.

                              So please help me to change my service provider

                              Thanks and Regards
                              Chintan

                                  I, Swastik Bhattacharyya, Father's name- Ujjwal Kumar Bhattacharyya, When I was working at Airtel Company (Year 2015), I used a Postpaid sim which was taken in my documents (KYC) and given by Airtel Company. Mobile number was [protected]. And registered address was - 4no Kalibari road, Dumdum, PS- Dumdum, Kolkata- 700030, but now I am staying at Sukantapally, Khasjangal, Abash, Near Telecom Abasan, Paschim Medinipur, PIN Code- 721102, and alternate registered mobile number- [protected]. When I left the job I returned the sim to Airtel company authority and told him to close the connection. I am not using this number after left my job in the year of 2015, another person use this number month on month. I got bill payment related massage month on month to my alternate number [protected]. Today when I checked through online with otp based I shocked, I have seen registered email id is [protected]@yahoo.com. The suspect is using the sim card into a Device. Device name- Huawei E5573s-606, Device Imei number- [protected]. Why Airtel company authority cheated with me? Why Airtel company authority has given the sim card to another person without informing me. It was totally fraud (Sim Swap).

                                  I request you kindly take a legal action against that person or authority who using the sim card without informing me. I don't know the suspect person.

                                  Another person is misusing my documents, Please pay attention to the facts...

                                    I have ordered the airtel payments bank Fastag on 8th march 2021 & it was said that it will receive in 14 working days.. but even after 14 days it is not received..!!!
                                    on 28th march called them on airtel customer care no 400, they said will check and reply after 2 days with complain no 9239343... I have also sent email too, on [protected]@airtelbank.com they register complain no 9243164 said will get back in 2 working days ...
                                    on 29th they resend email & said will get back in 24 hours. another email said will get in tough with you in 4 hours.
                                    today on 1st april called them on 400 again and they said still we do not have any update...!!!
                                    Mean...!!! how many time to call & write email but not getting a ordered fast-tag...?? for such a small thing... too many follow ups...??
                                    Airtel takes money and gives to fastag company and do not hold any responsibility / commitments ... customer paying in advance mean they are king...we have to only suffer...keep them calling and wiring for getting fastag... We pay the money where is the service...!!! there is no option for cancellation & they do not accept allow the refund... too..
                                    this is big problem need to resolve...
