Dear Concern

I am having a Airtel DTH HD connection account no - [protected] from November 2010.

From the last one month I am facing some problem or the other on the Setup box and finally decided to surrender it back.

The issue is, Airtel does not respond to my request and also neither has it refunded the money back as promised on surrender. I have also requested them to change my setup box in case they wont refund the money as it is still within a warranty of 12 months.

There has been no response from the service provider party.

Kindly assist on the same so that I can log a legal complain seeking compensation for the harassment and forgery they are doing.

Thanks
Abhrajit Sen.

    Airtel — Rubbish Calls

    Dear Sir,
    We have been receiving calls from one person who talks rubbish and fearless. He calls from different numbers to Airtel mobile of my wife. Last numbers he used are [protected] and [protected]. Every time he declares a different name. His sole objective seems to be to talk obscene to some female voice. Kindly help in identifying this person. Kindly respond back on email id: [protected]@gmail.com

        This is Siva from Electronic City, Bangalore. I am facing problem in broadand connection for the past 15 days. I already gave complaint regarding this on May 31, Without resolving the problem they closed the complaint. Again I gave the complaint on 9th June. Still no one contacted me. Their service is very worst.

        Please resolve that problem immediately. or better cancel my connection and pay the compensation.

        I have not used the internet for 15 days. My work fully depends on Internet. Because of this problem I lost lot of money. I am not going to pay for the next three months. If you are ready to give that compensation. I will continue with your service.

        Also for the same month my bill amount is 740 Rs. I have 3GB data plan (Rs599). My bill amount should be 660 ( including Tax ). I used only 1.5GB for that month. Also I have not used the connection for 15 days. I dont know how they calculated my bill amount.

        Very pathetic service.

          Dear Friends,

          THis is with great regret of choosingAirtel Broadband as a service provider i am writing to you people,
          I had applied for a new broadband connection on 18th of May 2011, i had submitted all the necessary documents to the sales representative Mr Dharani([protected]).

          The representative committed mt a connection within 4 working days after checking the availability at my place. I waited for the same and since i didnt hear anything from Airtel or the representative, i called him to find his number is disconnected. I raised a complaint with Airtel Braodband Customer care[protected] and the complaint number is 46769446. Every mangaer i spoke to kept on giving a new date and time and with a promise that someone from the installation backend team would call me and follow up.

          Eventually no one called and the same repeated for over 6 times spanning 20 plus days.
          Airtel does not have any professionalism and has no value for customer. I have already lost around 200 rupees speaking to the customer care executive. on 6th of June when i called to know the status, the escalation manager informed me that the application that i have submitted has been rejected.And someone from the refund team would call me to refund my money.

          What a disgusting experience, Who will refund my 200 rupees that i wasted on the calls following it up with the customer care, they dont even have a toll free number(I even asked the manager to update this in the complaint),

          I had had the same experience with airtel an year ago, and after a long wait of two months they had refunded my money.

          I would like to warn you that Airtel is a fraud when it comes to deliverables, they have no professionalism, I would not refer even my enemies to go for an Airtel Broadband.

          I am so disgusted with the experience that i dont find words to describe it. I eventually am waiting for the refund amount to reach me and ofcourse with a loss of 200 rupees which i wasted talking to the executives.

          Airtel Broadband — DISGUSTING SERVICE AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT

          GOD FORBID IF YOUR AIRTEL BROADBAND CONNECTION HAS PROBLEMS - THERE WOULD BE NO ONE TO SORT OUT THE ISSUE AND YOU WOULD BE ASKED TO PAY FOR IT ALL.

          I have had my airtel broadband connections for around a year now. The problems started around Jan this year, I would have issues with my connection, customer service would not be able to help and would try to give you an engineering 101 course and throw the ball back at you, and ultimately, it would turn out to be ALL on their end! I ignored the first two issues, and heck, even paid for those 121 calls I made (yes they charge you if you need those of-no-use support). I didn't know what i ignored initially, was going to catch me so bad. My internet was not working for months from march end - may. Customer support as expected was of no use. Even mailing multiple people on airtel and nodal officers or appellate officers was of no use. They kept on charging me for their non-availability of service. I wrote saying I was/am willing to pay for the phone calls made during march end/april (when atleast the phone line was working - it hasn't been working since mid-april now).

          I am filing a consumer court case against Bharti airtel for cheating customers with shoddy service, and harassing them for money when all the while they were not providing service anyway! If you notice my payment records, I have ALWAYS paid on time and way before time. So, there's gotto be a reason when a customer finally gets this frustrated. I hate bharti aritel so much now that i am switching out of airtel tv and airtel cellphone connection to tatasky and vodaphone.

          I hope someone knocks some sense into Airtel - i understand they have built a good market share in India, but they have really gone down in terms of quality. At this rate, Airtel would be losing its market share in another 2-3years at the max. As for me, I am through with Airtel.

            I am trying to disconnect my Airtel Broadband connection since 22nd April 2011. Everytime i call customer care, they register my complaint and assured me that my connection will be disconnect within a week. But its more than 45 days and still no action is taken.
            Every month the generate the bill. we are not using their connection for the last 2 months.

            I have logged my complaint to Airtel Customer care on[protected],[protected] and 1 more time in May 2011 and Today[protected].

            When i call them they say that your complaint has been logged and your connection will be disconnected in 1 week. But next time when i call them again, they say your connection is active.

            This results in loss of money, mental peace n torture.

              I have send the below mail to the addresses, nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in,nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in,appellateo... & till now they haven't responded to me

              To,
              The person concerned,

              I had an Airtel Kerala Postpaid connection with the following details, acnt [protected].I had discontinued it after 2 months from the day I took the connection. The reason was that I have not satisfied with my billing & the explanation I got from the customer care. You can check my call logs & can understand that I was not making much calls from the number though I have been billed too much( you can view my bill & can understand the mistakes like I have been charged for the same service multiple times). So on receiving the first month's bill itself I called the customer care in order to help me to get my postpaid converted to prepaid. But the executive told me that I must use the connection for 3 months before making any changes, when I told I want to change the plan he told it's not possible which eventually became possible when I told to discontinue the service.I paid the hefty amount on the assurance that it will be reflected on my next billing. Even though I changed my plan( from 349 to 99 plan), the second bill was also too heavy, as you can check I barely made calls from the number since I got my first bill. I again contacted the customer care & asked for my options, all I got was an assurance every time that the bill will be corrected on next cycle. I requested to terminate my service, but in vain. The only option left with me was to discontinue the service. Even though I requested to terminate, the same number was being billed every month then onwards. I told the customer care executives many times that I will pay for what I have used, that is the genuine monthly bill, requested for a discount on the fine amount though I definitely deserve more & want to make the number a prepaid. Although the number is barred in the third month itself (its funny the billing is now also active for my number & the bill amount is increasing day by day & have passed over my credit limit).

              The actual issue was different. Yesterday (05/08/11) I got a call at 5.11 PM from the number [protected], from Miss.Remya said to be from Airtel customer care.She was very rude & used unethical words which made me to cut the call( you can monitor the call which gets automatically recorded at your end). Then she called my colleagues & friends(whose numbers are 95xxxxxxxx,96xxxxxxxx), whose number I think she got from my call logs & said to them " I have cheated Airtel & not paid the money & I have given their number as contact with Airtel & Airtel is going to take legal action which will affect them also." These panicked them which eventually harmed my reputation. I don't know the consequences that will arise as they told they will take up the issue with my new firm . At first I thought it might be a prank call, later I confirmed it was from Airtel. I didn't expect such an action from a company like Airtel, what she done was in way my character Assassination.I definitely want an explanation for these action as I haven't cheated you & it actually happened viceversa.

                Hi,

                I purchased an Airtel World Calling card from Bangalore International airport on 28-May-2011. I reached USA and tried calling using this card. When I dial the Access code o[censored]SA, at the tone, I am asked to enter Card number and Pin. When I enter the 14 digit number that I have on the card (after starching the hidden area), I am asked to enter the card and pin again, when I reenter, I will be redirected to MCI operator. The MCI operator will ask me to contact the Customer care as my card is not valid. Please assist on how do I overcome this issue.

                Thanks & Regards,
                Shruthi N

                      I have recharged my prepaid mobile with 0.5 paisa per second offer at after 20th(i dont remember exact date) of May 2011. it has validity of 30 days. it worked fine untill 8th Jun 2011 after which it started charging me on usual pulse rate which i didnt observe and so far i had to pay over RS.150 for their mistake. i have complained on it 2 days back.. no response so far. They gave me some reference number[CMBNR[protected]]. IF I DONT GET THIS RESOLVED AND GET MY MONEY BACK, I WILL STOP USING AIRTEL AS MY PRIMARY SIM AND WILL OPT FOR SOME OTHER PROVIDERS WHO DONT CHEAT CUSTOMERS.

                      I also have airtel broadband[1 MBPS UNLIMITED PLAN- 800 PER MONTH] and i will see what to do on that one too based on response from customer care.

                        Dear Sanjeev,
                        They will never help you out. You have to fight for this. Call on their call centre and don't disconnect the call untill you will get proper resolution.

                          Address: Pune, Maharashtra

                          Hi,

                          I had subscribed for Airtel services in Pune a year ago (2010) considering savings as the most imperative fact since the plan offered by the Rep appeared economical compared to my existing plan, however after being served for several months I found Airtel to help itself by overcharging me instead of helping me to get some benefits. Initailly I used to pay my bills between Rs.[protected], but few months later my bills suddenly went upto Rs.[protected] regularly when my usage pattern was still between the above mentioned figures.

                          I tried to communicate with Airtel's pathetic customer service people to understand the reason behind the charges and unfortunately after many exhausting hours of interaction the solution was to pay the complete bill everytime, despite of several complaints Airtel continued to do it's job and finally in the month of May 2011 I received a bill for Rs. 5600/- to which they usually had one explanation (Typical Airtel CS Response: sir aapka bill aapke usage ke hisaab se hi aaya hai).

                          Being helpless I decided to not pay my bill at all till they consider my concern and anticipated a solution from them, but instead of providing me a solution they found a solution to let their collections team harass me and my family to make payments...

                          Let me make you'll aware that Their collections teams aren't following any guidelines of the goverment stated under the FDCPA - Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (http://www.delhilaw .firm .in/debtcollection-india.htm) or stated as per Airtel's collections code of conduct http://www. airtel .in/wps/wcm/connect/airtel.in/airtel.in/home/foryou/mobile/postpaid+services/kno... briefly mentioned below; They are calling everyone I know using my call details to embarrass, threaten, crticize (called me a thief) and annoy my family and me, they even threatened my grandparents...
                          Note: remove any spaces from the URL's Mentioned above to visit the website...
                          therefore in this helpless situation I need someone to help me understand how to take imperative measures against this shameful act of our mostly hated company Airtel and it collections team.

                          A Debt Collector CANNOT:
                          ■ Telephone you an unreasonable number of times
                          ■ Telephone you at an unusual time/ unusual place
                          ■ Disclose information of your debts to third parties
                          ■ Use profane or other abusive language
                          ■ Contact you after written notification that you do not want to be contacted any further
                          ■ Claim to be affiliated with any governmental organization
                          ■ Misrepresent the character, amount or legal status of a debt
                          ■ Threaten of to take any action that cannot be taken legally
                          ■ Accuse you having committed a crime
                          ■ Threaten or communicate false credit information
                          ■ Attempt to collect, until he honors your request to validate
                          ■ Use deceptive methods to collect debts
                          ■ Call you before 8:00 a.m. or after 9:00 p.m.
                          ■ Call you, but not announce who he/she is


                          It seems Airtel doesn't know what does "Practice what you preach" mean...

                            Address: Nadia, West Bengal

                            1. I, MR SUMAN DUTTA, SERVING SOLDIER OF THE INDIAN ARMY, AM LODGING THE COMPLAINT ON BEHALF OF MY AGED AND WIDOWED MOTHER SMT PRATIVA DUTTA.

                            2. MY MOTHER HAD SUBSCRIBED A AIRTEL PREPAID CONNECTION ( NO [protected]) IN YR 2006 FROM MANJU TRADERS, CHAKDAHA, NADIA (WB-741222) AS LIFE TIME AGREEMENT FOR RS 999/-, SUBMITTING ALL VALID DOCUMENTS I.E. VOTER ID, RATION CARD ETC. THIS MOBILE CONNECTION HAS BEEN THE ONLY WAY FOR HER TO COMMUNICATE WITH HER TWO SONS, WHO WERE POSTED IN J & K AND RAJASTHAN. ALL RELATIVES WERE ALSO CONNECTED ON THIS MOBILE NUMBER.

                            3. AFTER FIVE YEARS O[censored]SAGE OF THIS MOBILE CONNECTION, THE SERVICE PROVIDER (AIRTEL BENGAL AREA) HAS BLOCKED THE SIM CARD IN FIRST WEEK OF MAY 2011 WITHOUT ANY KNOWN REASON. THE NUMBER WAS LATEST RECHARGED ON 27-28 APR 2011 WITH RS 50/-. THEREAFTER, AFTER BLOCKAGE OF SIM CARD, FOR SEVEN DAYS MY MOTHER COULD NOT UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM WITH THE CONNECTION. SHE COULD NOT CONNECT ANY ONE AS ALL INCOMING AND OUTGOING CALLS WERE STOPPED. BEING WORRIED, SHE VISITED RETAILERS FOR THE NEEDFUL. SHE AGAIN SUBMITTED THE ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS TO A RETAILER FOR RE-INSTATEMENT OF THE CONNECTION. SHE WAS CONTINUED TO BE HARASSED BY VISITING RETAILER SHOPS IN THE HOT SUMMER DAYS AGAIN AND AGAIN. WE, THE TWO BROTHERS, SERVING IN THE ARMY AND POSTED IN OTHER STATES, COULD NOT DIRECTLY COMMUNICATE MY MOTHER FOR ONE AND HALF MONTHS. WE TRIED TO CALL ON THAT MOBILE NUMBER (I.E. [protected]) AGAIN AND AGAIN, HOPING THAT THE SERVICE WOULD HAVE BEEN RE-INSTATED. BUT IN MID MAY 2011, WE HAVE COME TO KNOW THAT THE NUMBER HAS BEEN ALLOTTED TO ANOTHER PERSON BY THE AIRTEL.

                            4. THIS ACT OF EXTREME SMARTNESS OF THE AIRTEL HAS BREECHED OUR TRUST BESTOWED ON THEM. NOW, I, ON BEHALF OF MY AGED & WIDOWED MOTHER SOLICIT THE HONOURABLE COURT TO INVESTIGATE ON THE CASE AND INITIATE NECESSARY ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION AGAINST THE SMART & RICH AIRTEL COMPANY TO COMPENSATE THE COST INVOLVED AND HARASSMENT CAUSED TO MY MOTHER.

                              Just to share with all of you. I received a call from Airtel (Mr. Aditya). The number flashed on my cell was [protected]. He gave me the following details :

                              3. The visiting engineer will fix the STP as well as Dish Alignment.
                              4. Visiting charges will be 100/-
                              5. Aditya will double check and follow up to get the call closed

                              I was glad to hear the response details. Post this call no one called or arrived.

                              Please take back your STP and dish and thanks for all the trouble and nuisance I had in past one month.

                                    ON 03 JUNE 2011 I GOT A CALL FROM LOCAL DEALER AIRTEL DIGITAL TV MOBILE NO ([protected]) ASKING ME THAT we are coming to your residence for dish alignment to the new satellite and asked for visiting charge of 100 rs when i refused. i called customer care they told me that the dish alignment will be done free from our side so not to give any charge for this. finally no body came.
                                    NOW ON 11 JUNE suddenly service stopped with ERROR NO - SM2 call customer care for assistance
                                    first time customer care exucutive told that it is a technical error i am taking complain keep your set top box on will be resolved within half an hour.
                                    nothing happened in next one hour.
                                    again i called them this time executive told me that your satellite alignment has been changed automatically from our side and system is showing that anteena alignment has been done. (for better signal and quality). THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR ANTEENA AND SET TOP BOX our engineer will come to you and solve your problem TAKE THE COMPLAIN NO[protected] AND GO TO THE NEAREST DEALER. the VISITING CHARGE WILL BE 100 RS. when i asked that how can your system is showing that SM2 service is activated where no engineer came to my house HE TOLD ME THAT WITHOUT ANTEENA ALIGNMENT SM2 ERROR CAN NOT COME.
                                    SO I ASK YOU SOME QUESTION
                                    1. WITHOUT CUSTOMER REQUEST WHY YOU CHANGED MY SERVICE TO SM2 WHICH IS NOT WORKING ON MY SET TOP BOX (as told by your customer care executive)
                                    2. if changed then why to charge 100 rs as VISITING CHARGE.
                                    3. is it a type of harrasment with the help of LOCAL DEALER (WHO CALLED ME ON 03 JUNE FOR VISITING CHARGE)
                                    4. IF YOU HAVE CHANGED YOUR SATELLITE THEN IT IS YOUR DUTY TO UPDATE THE CONSUMERS AND MAKE TECHNICAL ARRANGEMENTS REGARDING THIS.


                                    SO DO THE NEEDFUL QUICKLY REGARDING THE ISSUE OTHERWISE I HAVE TO GO TO OTHER AUTHORITIES. AS DEDUCTION OF DAILY CHARGES IS CONTINUE FROM MY DIGITAL TV ACCOUNT.

                                    Customer ID: [protected]

                                    I have purchased Airtel digital TV on 22nd February, 2009 with a Mega Pack with Rs.260/- per month charges after two months free subscription. I have noticed last month that Airtel was charging me Rs.315/- per month where as I have subscribed for Mega Pack of Rs.260/- I have lodged complaint last month with airtel customer service vide reference No.801159 to refund me excess amount charged for Two Months (i.e. 26/4/2009 to 25/6/2009) and stop add on services if any activated on my account without my knowledge with immediate effect. I am surprise to see that Airtel had not stopped add on service till date and charging me additionally Rs.55/- per month for ESPN Top up. I have written four e-mail but no response was received . I have calledup custumer care twice and when i am asking why you have not stopped addon service last month the customer care executive disconnecting phone with no response. Can any give me draft to be filed with consumer court for this? i wish to file a complaint before consumer fourm to save inocent people from Airtel bogus charges.

                                    Hello,

                                    This is to inform you that we are using your Digital TV services since January ’09.

                                    On the Name of Ramdas Gandhi (My Father)

                                    Customer ID [protected]

                                    Contact No. [protected]

                                    Comp/Ref.Number 879935



                                    In July ’09 there was some problem in our Digital TV’s result for which we have launched a complaint to Co.'s Toll-Free call center. For which their one of service Executive has came & found the problem somewhere in dish which was provided by the company. At the time of the discussion for the resolution for the problem he informed us that there will be a 600/- Expense for which “WE HAVE TO DO EXTRA RECHARGE OF 600/- INR” at the time of this recharge there was already balance of over 200/- INR. [censored]ll as he has insisted so we did the same on 20th July 2009. Then on 21st July 2009 their Service Executive has came again for the Problem resolution & has corrected the problem which resulted in Crystal Clear Visibility from AIRTEL Digital TV services.



                                    But the problem arises after he has left & three days passed for the same. Our Account is debited for the 800/- INR for the same damage’s repair/replacement, which is 200/- higher then what their Service Executive has said & the same charges has been debited without our concern or confirmation.



                                    Then for the same I have called at ARITEL DIGITAL TV Call-Center No.12150 from Airtel Mobile. Where I have explained the whole experience, where again their one of authorized service agent named __________ has given me assurance that my Account will be re-credited for 200/- INR by 30th of July 2009 which were debited wrongly & for which he has given me the Comp/Ref. Number 879935

                                    After this I have sent them Mail via my E-mail ID (dhaval.[protected]@hotmail.com), on that also they have denied to credit the charges without any Clarifications, & when I have replyed for that mail again with my queries, till date I have not received any responce from Company.

                                    The charges are not Credited till time today on 07-08-09 & moreoverly I have received Message from AIRTEL TV that if I we have not recharged our account immediately, our services will be suspension.

                                    I seek your assistance to sorting out this issue.

                                    Your prompt & positive revert will help me to cherish good experience.

                                    Regards,

                                    Hello Friends,

                                    I just want to share my experience with Airtel DTH. I have recharged my Airtel DTH account [protected] in June 2010 for Rs.500. My account is credited with Rs.500 after recharging
                                    from the recharge coupon. After 24 hours my account was suspended. When I called customer care, they didn’t have any clue why they have suspended my account. After number of follow up, they replied that some other customer claimed that amount and my account is debited without informing me. when I asked to get my money back, customer care executives disconnected by call several times?????. Now Mr. Naveen and Mr. Rakesh from Airtel DTH needs a proof of that the recharge coupon that I used to recharge my Airtel DTH account almost a year back.

                                    Is this a Joke????

                                    My Friends if you are using this service and recharging with recharge coupon then keep it and do not throw, else you will be the next in this list.

                                      I have applied for replacement Airtel prepaid SIM today([protected]). I was assured that it would get activated by 8 PM.
                                      But it is not yet activated inspite of reporting to customer care repeatedly.

                                      Please take it forward as I need the no. to work immediately for important official work.

                                      Regards

                                        This complaint is sending to you in utmost dissatisfaction about the services to
                                        the new Airtel post paid connections I took and activated from 13/05/2011. I am
                                        an inspector working in Railway Protection Force and presently at Zonal
                                        Training Centre/RPF, Khajamalai, Trichy and residing at H-34, Phase III, Anna
                                        Nagar, Navalpattu, Trichy. One person by name Ibrahim mob No. [protected] from Trichy approached me and requested to subscribe the connection duly describing attractive offers for a Railway men and I took mobile No. [protected] & 52 under Plan 249 & 149 respectively. To get this connection I preferred the signed applications, two photographs and xerox copy of my departmental ID as address proofs along with Rs.331/- for activation charges which will be adjusted in the coming bills. The service to these connections have been disconnected on several times without any intimation during the past one month with a lame excuse that address verification & confirm verification etc:. I already explained the fact that due to vacation at KV Trichy my family members are out of the town and I am presently staying at my office accommodation at the training centre. Due to the above reason no one in my residential address up to 27 June and the same can be confirmed with the neighbors. But without understanding the above said facts they simply disconnect the service. For your information there are so many staff from my office have taken Airtel connection recently and if you people treat a responsible officer in the force as above, every one will
                                        discontinue the connection. If you can please reactivate the connections
                                        immediately (before 12 noon of 07/06/2011) otherwise treat my connections as
                                        disconnected and return back the applications contained my signature, two
                                        photographs and self attested xerox copies of my departmental ID
                                        card without fail. Otherwise I will took up the issue with appropriate level as
                                        deemed fit please. But my surprise, in connection with the complaint lodged with the Airtel by e-mail dated 07/06/2011, I received acknowledgements from one Aruna Srinivasan, Customer Care, Bharti Airtel Limited on 09/06/2011. Again I written to Airtel nodel officer for that on 11/06/2011 one Vinitha M, Nodal Office, Bharti Airtel Limited replied me duly stating some lame excuses like spelling mistakes and mistake in mobile numbers etc; even though I had furnished all the details elaborately with my present contact number [protected]. Again I replied duly demanding my photographs and documents. Why I am sending this complaint is to spread the matter all in the nation to understand behaviour of private service providers and also to get back my documents at my door step in the same way which way it has been collected from me. Apart from that I also need the amount Rs. 331/- since you have not been provided any service to me. To attain my justifiable and leagal rights I am ready to file any type of complaint in any legal body. Do needful withoiut wasting much time since the concern already exhausted much time to solve the issue without any fruitful results.
