Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Am getting sms with regards to deduction of Rs 5/- daily towards Game Mania. Have complained ealier. it did stop for sometime and now it has started again.

Suggest a renowned company like AIRTEL shouldn't stoop to scam operator levels. Or even tie up with such operators. This damn thing is forced down the subscribers throat ( as can be seen from the number of complaints - google games mania and see the avalanche of complaints against this exhortion)

I am a very loyal customer of AIRTEL. My co land lines/ resi /broadband/ CUGs are all Airtel. I appreciate the company v efficient services. Have had no reason to complain. Wonderful services.

When i called 121, I was told that i will be sent the link and that i will have to go to the link and stop the subscription. I am yet to recieve the link and
i really dont have the patience to talk to 121. I would rather that since AIRTEL started this scam, its your responsibility to put an end to it.

And this has to stop and fro today. Infringes on our freedom and its v frustrating that we cant do a thing about it. Will AIRTEL please do something about it or i might be forced to look for another service provider.

Thank you and have a lovely day.

I would like to inform that I subscribed for Airtel prepaid service in New Delhi a month back, with the relevant authentic documents submitted. After 10 days they disconnected my mobile giving the reason that document verification failed. I am still in dilemma that how was this possible since each and every document was authentic.

But this was only the starting of my problem. Inspite of repeated request to customer care they were of no help and responded with the mechanical answer that I should submit the document again. OK fine. After that I made several trip to their two customer relation service centre in New Delhi, sending me back for one or other reasons. My problem is yet to be solved.

I want to ask one simple question that why do give the connection in the first place before verification and what procedure do they follow that verification of authentic documents fail their test. I hope somebody is listening to my problem.

Regards,
Govind

PS: I think this prepaid connection will be the last service I would be availing from Airtel

Airtel — outgoing disconnect

[protected] evening 9'pm my airtel service of out going calls disconnected. Even customer care no not connected. So please rectify my service complaint as early as possible.

Thanking you,

my dear Airtel service.

Rakesh Ranga

I personally went to your land line customer support center and paid 1300/- cash as your staff told me and gave me copy of reason for bounced check. The reason for bounced check is " Check is out of allotted range". I do not know what it means, as I issued many checks never had a problem, and i have lakhs of rupees in my acct.

Cash payment details:

Payment date:[protected], Reciept No[protected]

After I paid, Airtel told me that, outgoing service will be restored in 4 hrs. Today date is[protected], IT HAS NOT BEEN RESTORED YET. I have sent a long email related to same to Nodal.[protected]@airtel.in and addressed to Rajesh who is a Andhra Nodal officer.

It is shame on you that you did not resolve issue and almost 96 hrs. I have been in US almost 10 yrs, customer support in US feel shame if they are not able to resolve. If payment is due from my side, I should feel shame.

I am also giving your the complaint number: 1504192 logged by Karthik Venkatesh.

Hope you would not come up with another excuse to by pass the problem.

Hi Everybody

Dumb Airtel is still not able to resolve the issue, my out going to not working. I lost 600 calls of worth due to a month long delay in restoration and fact finding machine. Rakesh Ranga is a virtual person in the cloud sending typical generic emails. Today called customer support, they do not have any clue.

Airtel Cheating people like this, NRIs beware of Airtel. Expect many crappy companies like this in India.

Airtel

till today service has not been restored. Airtel Down.. down...

Hi Everybody

Still the my case has not been resolved. The Andhra Nodal officer of Airtel coordinated for couple days showing up like they can work for resolution. Nothing has been resolved.

Down.. Down ...Airtel

It is yet to be resolved, what is this, a mere eyewash?

Gurdev Singh

hi,

My mobile No. is [protected].
i did not opt for any 54321 services in my SIM. but these kind of services get activated automatically and i receive some 20 service messages every day, its too annoying and these services get charged everday like Re 1 or 2 or 3, why should we pay unnecessarily for the services which we don't even want, and since two three days i have been receving messages from AD-54321, some cricket alerts, i complained about this to customer care, they say its activated from my side,but i never activated anything like that i said, and i asked them to unsubscribe it and they said it is unsubscribed now, but i keep on receiving those messages. i don't know why do they annoy people like this.

Sir/Mam, Please could you unsubscribe these services.
even now,no action has been taken after this, i have no other option than changing my network.

My request for port out from AIRTEL still pending. I received the unique Port ID AL132866 for my mob.number [protected] on 02.02.11. I have submitted a new application with BSNL on 04.02.11.
On 05.02.11 I received a message from BSNL stating that your port out request has been rejected by the service provider quoting the reason of not completing 90 days with their network. But I am using this number since 2004 without any break and it is a lame excuse. AIRTEL started sending some useless offers for continuing with their network. Even if they are offering life time free connection for me I am not iterested to continue with them. So no use of holding on to this number.I will continue my struggle. My present Port ID expires on 17.02.11.

Dear Sir !!!
This is Gautam. I found your email id from Airtel Website.
Sir plz help me regarding my problem.

I requested for number porting from Reliance GSM to Airtel on 09/05/2011 at 06:33 pm. The mobile number is [protected] (Bihar Jharkhand Circle)

while processing
on 11/05/2011 I received an SMS "Request validated by donor and porting time:[protected]:02:00.454"

My number ported to Airtel at right time. After it I make a call on 123 and it is still answering that my number is invalid.
On[protected] I tried to recharge my account , but It was not successful. I received SMS
<< Recharge not successful on your mobile. Transaction ID[protected]. Date:[protected] at 11:51 AM.>>.

I informed it to customer care executive, but they didn't find any solution and provided me complaint number (reference number): CLTNM[protected] on[protected]. They told me that within 3 days my problem will be solved.

after 7 days of my complaints I got an sms On 20/05/2011 << Kindly note the service request No. 613854 has been resolved. >> But still my problem was not solved.

On 21/05/2011 I again talked with CCE, but they didn't given me any kind of reference number.
on 22/05/2011 I again reported to CCE and they given me Reference number CMPRO[protected] and promised me that my problem will be solved before 01:30 pm 23/05/2011
My problem still not solved and again I reported to CCE today on[protected] and got reference number CDAMN[protected]. They promised me that my problem will be solved on 24 may.
Sir while contacting with CCE many times my call was disconnected by CCE. They always say me to hold, but while on hold my call was automatically disconnected. Even they were not interested to listen me carefully.

Sir I don't think, they can solve my problem. My number [protected] is still not working since long time. Plz understand my problem and take necessary action. I'll be grateful to you. After sending email to you all I must believe that my problem will be solved soon.

you can contact me on my alternate mobile number +91-[protected].

Hi Team,

I received a call from Airtel on 15th July, 2011 at 9:15 and I talked to Varun Sharma..He ensured your request will be processed within the next 7 days...
When I talked today the person supervisor Mr. Mahesh Darji talked to me very rudely and informed me that your request will be processed in next 15 days. When I asked him to process that please get the information of 15th July conversation, why Varun Sharma ensured me that it will be processed within 7 days, he refused to do it & told me it will be processed internally but refused to update me regarding the process status.
Because of this uncertainties I have to keep my balance in mobile so less due to when the MNP process completes I will loose that entire balance.

Please do the needful asap.

Anticipating your response soon.

Thanks,
Vijay Patil-[protected]

Airtel Broadband — Unresponsive Service

My airtel broadband services has been billed more and I just want to know about my billing details but i have facing problems like;

* I have called many times but your server is down(as told by representative when calls get connected) so unable to check details.
* It takes lot of time to contact customer care as you IVR system is too long and poor.
* Due to this my bill has exceeded the desired period and late fee has been charged.

You service as well as customer representatives are extreemly poor to respond and thus customer has not only paying extra fees but wasting a lot of time contacting you.

Dear Mr.Rakesh Ranga,
I am thankful to AIRTEL's immediate response which is really appreciable. My problem is solved. The Number is ACTIVATED for OUTGOING CALLS immediately after your Corporate Office interference. Thankyou very much,
with regards,
PAPPU SATYANARAYANA.
