Hello,
I am Girish my mobile number is [protected] i am using airtel 3g service and i activated 3g data plan Rs 750 0f 2gb data . airtel promise to their customers we will assures a speed upto 27 mbps but i am getting only 20kbps . even 2g connection will not give that much of speed i raised so may complaints through customer care and relationship centers of airtel they only giving Service request till date my problem is not yet resolved , really i am feeling very bad about airtel 3g service and customer support . Airtel is not bother about their customers and they are not ready to solve customer issues . plz any help me how to solve my problem.

My no is [protected]. My plan is friends (10 paise/min community calling , 50paise/min to all other mobiles with first call at 1rs, 200 sms /day free with 1st sms charged at 1 rs).

SUDDENLY MY CALL RATES ARE BEING CHARGED @1RS/MIN FOR ALL CALLS INCLUDING COMMUNITY CALLING.

I had bought the plan last year. I called customer care(198) many times. One of them say we will message you the options. I received no such message. One said recharge with 110 rs you will get ur plan back. Then when i went AIRTEL RELATIONSHIP CENTER they said first call at 999 to confirm. The lady on the phone said ur friends plan has expired, it cant be converted back to friends plan. When I asked how did my validity abruptly she said I m sorry. U must have recd message to increase validity. I HADN'T RECD ANY MESSAGE TOP INCREASE VALIDITY. She again said sorry.

This similar thing had haapened with my previous no. I HATE AIRTEL. GUYS READING THIS SHUDNT BUY ANY AIRTEL CARD. I LL HAVE TO SWITCH TO MNP..

This is in related to my "Complaint No: 1303340" which is made for the telephone no[protected] for Broadband & Telephone not working. This complaint was made on 26/07/11 & still it has not been resolved. Everytime i call customer care i get a new excuse & no one has came to look for the problem.They everytime say within next 24 hours a service representative will visit but no one has come yet. Would request you to resolve my problem as soon as possible. Airtel services are becoming a mess day by day.

We got our Airtel IPTV connection on 17th June with the 1099 plan. On the very same day, when connection was activated, we had raised request to activate ESPN topup pack (consisting ESPN, Star Sports and Star Cricket). We were told that this will be activated within 4 days, but even when we waited for a week, this was not done. Now its almost 1.5 months, still no resolution!

We then followed up with number of phone calls to customer care, sometimes 5-6 calls a day. The problem with their customer care was, everytime they would put us on hold and then somehow the call would be disconnected. We would call them daily. Most times they would end up raising new customer requests. It's been more than a month now, but still the top up pack is not activated. Sometimes we were even promissed that it will be activated within 4 hours! A lot of false promises have been done. It's nearly a kind of mental harrasement to the customer. To an extent that they even barred our phone number in such a way that we would not be able to talk to customer care personal! We then sent email to [protected]@airtel.in.. there too number of requests were raised, and not resolved.

Their systems were being updated from 9th to 19th july, and after that it seems they erased all the old requests, so they are now raising new requests, but again, no use.

It don't understand, in just activating a small topup why would they make the customers go through such an ordeal!

Our airtel number is[protected].

I have been using(adjusting) Airtel Broadband for almost 4 years now. Last month (June), I shifted to a new house and I have been sending mails to Broadband customer care to transfter my connection from my previous place to my new place. In fact there is no need to do any wiring as the previous tenant was also using Airtel and he shifted to another place.

Even after mailing their customer support till their Ombudsperson, there is not any reply from them. It has already been one month and I am without internet at my new place.

I didn't pay the last month's bill because of this and they are very active in alerting me that I didn't pay the bill. Also a lady called me twice to remind me that I didn't pay last month's and this month's bill. I said I will not pay it unless I get a resolution and also that I will not pay the amount for the days which elapsed after I sent the first email to customer care.

Things are moving very sloppy at Airtel customer care. I have already filled the form to apply for a BSNL connection.


I sent 7 mails at different times and got only one complaint number - 206201. My airtel phone number is[protected]

The calls to their customer support number[protected] never gets connected.

A copy of the mail I sent and the email addresses.

Hi

This is my 5th Email regarding the same issue and this will be my LAST email to Airtel.

UNRESOLVED COMPLAINT NUMBERS - 206201
You never gave complaint numbers for my other emails....

I had shifted my house from my current Address to a new location and I want my broadband to be connected there.

All the connection set up is available and you need to just map the modem with the new line. Wiring and all is already present.

My name is Easo Thomas and my Airtel number is 12786179

My telephone number is[protected]

My cell number is [protected]

If I am not able to get a resolution shortly, I am going to change my ISP for sure. I have been using Airtel for 4 years now. Enough troubles already.

My name is Niitn I applied for new 4mbps broadband connection at 67, Guru Angad Nagar, Laxmi nagar Delhi-92 and the main problem is that We took a flat on rent your airtel person servey the site and said that yes we can provide you new airtel connection in 3 working days than we said ok plz do it. After filling a Airtel form (form no. 2800325) he took 1000 Rs. to us but he didn't provide the new connection in three days. Now after complait a new airtel guy come to us and said tell us where your home we saw him location then he said noo it is not possible because your near by DP is already full of connections so we can't provide you new connection.

Now we are paying the room rent without live in the flat only because airtel guys cheat us. sir/ madam pls tell us what is our fault. If you can do something we will be very thank ful to you.

I paid for Mega pack offer and HD channels in Airtel DTH but None of the channels of mega pack and HD channels are being given to me.
With repeated complaint for last 20 days, Airtel DTH has misguided me and did not tell that they have registered degraded pack for me. Now that I got to know about the real cause of the issue, Airtel is asking me for more money to give me the pachake I opted for!!
Now, this is very irritating and disturbing as I have lost Money, time and still am deprived of the vaue that I should have got. I feel helpless as one of the many cheated Indian customer.

I have got the cash memo of the Mega pack offer and all the relevent documents.

Hello,

My name is Niranjan and i own a Airtel Connection in the name of Avyaya Multimedia for close to 8 years now.
I have normally been getting an average monthly bill of Rs. 900-1100 all these years.
About 2 months back, out of the blues, i get a bill of Rs. 4000 odd. When i asked why, i was told that it's because Airtel Live has been activated on my phone and the usage of the same is the basic reason for such a huge pile up. I would like to clarify 2 things:
a. I had never asked them to activate Airtel live
b. They had never sought permission from me to activate the same

In spite of this, they have gone ahead and activated the same and have also billed me for the same. When i refused to pay, my connection got suspended.
I would like to register this complaint against Airtel on this issue.

Hi there,

I am using airtel prepaid connection for a year or so. I was pretty satisfied with airtel as your network strength was good but recently there is some issue i guess.
We have to roam here and there just to catch a glimpse of the signal to make calls or receive sms.
Earlier i was using Docomo and for the same reason i switched to airtel. Other users of this area are feeling the same thing.
Can someone please look into this.

Area : Gera Emeralds City North, Kharadi, Pune 411014 Maharashtra.
Please do let me know on my mail([protected]@ymail.com) if you require any more detail.

Looking forward for expedite response from you.

Hi,

Sorry to this but I think you didn't read my complain, so I have to submit new complain.

This is what is the customer care of India's Leading company Airtel.

"For subscribing Ten's Cricket HD channel SMS ADD 222, I did that and after that I can see Two times "Ten Cricket 3M TOPUP Dec-10 NRC" activated in my account"

This channel was already included in my base package so there is no need to ADD Ten Cricket 3M TOPUP.

Two times Rs 82/- (Rs 164/-) was deducted from my account, you have reverted only Rs 82/-, I m not doing any negotiation,
or
Do one thing if you cannot pay my another Rs 82/- then as my detail now I m having two Ten Cricket channel, one in my base package and another what I have activated through IVR as per you records,
so I need two Different Channel number for Ten Cricket 3M channel as I have paid for this channel, so you cannot use my existing subscribed channel number and deduct my money.

Please make your system or software in the benefit of customer not in the benefit of company.

I am also having Tata Sky connection and they have atleast far far better customer than you.

Regards,
Abhishek

I have been trying to Port Out my Mobile number : [protected] from Airtel to idea since more than 1 month, but the Airtel is not releasing my number.

I have already submitted more than 3 requests for porting out my number and talked to Customer Care several times but nothing resolves and no one is ready to give proper update.

Please help to get my number released from Airtel asap as it is causing me lots of trouble and I am losing money as I miss many calls due to their poor network.

Thanks

My Airtel Prepaid no. is [protected].In the last week,the VAS service 1. Cricket Score Pack 2. Comedy Zone 3. Talk to me - Saif Ali Khan have activated in my mobile without my permission & any message from my side and unathorised amount deducted from my balance.It is the common practice of Airtel Co. because this is my 2nd complain against Airtel Co. These VAS services should be deactivated immediately from my mobile & unauthorised amount should be returned in my balance. Also the necessary action should be taken against the fraud Airtel Co. & punished for these types o[censored]nauthorised activities.

Hi,

I have a prepaid number (+91-[protected]). My number was not receiveing and sending any message and any number on satuurday afternoon without any reason.When I went to the Zonal office, I was told as my number was heavy usage one, my number was cut the sending and receiveing message.

This absurd reason was provided to me with no explanation that why the number was cut in the first place.

I was promised that the number will be activated on Saturday evening.

That was a lie again given by Airtel Zonal office, as on Monday also, my number is off. The message given to all my client is that the number's incoming message and sending message are barred. Which in reality is not the case, as this is a prepaid number.

I want to take action against Airtel for harming my reputation in front of various clients across the world who have been given a very bad picture of me.

Dear sir,
I am trying several times to contact u, but failed due to network or poor service. I have some queries about the service,so please arrange a call from your end.
The detail problems facing are as below;
1. Call rate became higher as my plan is 1sec/1paisa. It is automatically changed. . How? Why?
2. 2-3 days back Rs.99 has beed deducted from my account & thenRs. 20. Why this is happening. Please clarify?
Waiting for a positive reply at the end.

I purchased Airtel new iptv connection on 11/072011. I filled all the forms & submitted my proof on the same date & I paid for the new connection in cash ( 1750/-). While applying for new connection they told me that Airtel server are going for upgradation & I will get new connection on or after 19th July but definitly in that week only.
But till now they haven't installed any connection. I called all the airtel contact in Noida more than 20 times but they keep on giving new dates. I even called Airtel customer care but they don't have any information about my application. They also gave same assurances that it will be installed soon. I visted their outlet on 29th & then 30th. They keep on repeating same thing. They are neither refunding my money nor they are installing new iptv connection.
