Airtel Complaints & Reviews

2-Mar-11 I had gone out of the country and when I came back in Jan 2011, I
requested for retention of the same number I had earlier in 2009. It took
several weeks to get my old number back ([protected]). Before going abroad, the
connection was in my employer¿s name (Wipro Technologies) but now the
connection is in my name after the reactivation.
The connection I got reactivated already had `Airtel Live' feature already activated
with it. I was not aware about this feature nor about the charges associated
with this feature. The handset I had initially was a basic one without any
advanced features so it did not matter to me that this feature activated.

19-Mar-11 I purchased a smart phone around March 19th 2011. With the help from
the dealer, I got GPRS enabled for my handset. I was told it would be a Rs 98
plan. But still there were some settings which had not been done w.r.t
MobileOffice on the handset. So whenever I tried to access internet, the
access was actually happening through `Airtel Live feature that had been
already been activated in my connection.

19-Mar-11 At that point I was not really aware about various plans and their
variations available with Airtel regarding internet access.


25-Mar-11 As usual I was getting many SMS from customer care about the
approximate unbilled usage. I immediately noticed that the outstanding balance
was increasing by hundreds of rupees on a daily basis. I contacted the customer service on 25th and expressed my concerns.I was told till the bill is generated, they
will be not able to find out why I was getting these SMSs on the heavy bill
amount.

29-Mar-11 I was still getting SMSs on a daily basis with hundreds of rupees increase in the billed amount. I again got really concerned and contacted Airtel Customer support on 29th March and expressed my concerns. They told me to wait till the bill gets generated on 19th of April,
which was 20 days later. They have recorded in their system about this conversation.


9-Apr-11 With help from one of my friends I came to know how to set up the Mobile Office feature properly installed my equipment around 2nd week of April by contacting the customer service.Even after this, Airtel Live feature was still active on my handset.

19-Apr-11 I have got a bill of 3360.32 for the month of March-April 2011

26-Apr-11 I spoke to the customer service and explained my situation.
Customer Service rep told me that I have to pay the entire amount as I
had actually used internet through 'Airtel Live' via WAP_ALL (Web Application Protocol through Airtel Live Login) gateway. I got the Airtel Live feature inactivated from my phone.

27-Apr-11 I escalated the issue to the Nodal officer and Apellate officer at Airtel as per the advice from Customer Service

7-May-11 Apellate office responded back telling that "We wish to inform you that the 2 GB GPRS Free @20KB/30Ps With Rental Rs 98 is active on your Airtel mobile effective 26/03/2011.

As per the above Mobile Internet pack activated applications has to be browsed through Mobile Office only.

We would like to inform you that based on your complaint, we have investigated the possibility of the same. Post the investigation we have found that browsing was done through WAP_ALL (Web Application Protocol through Airtel Live Login) gateway. The GPRS plan offers will not be applicable for browsing through Airtel Live. Hence we would like to inform you that the charges are valid.

There is an out standing amount of Rs. 3283.19/- we request you to make the payment at the earliest."
I had specifically called twice to find out why my unbilled amount was increasing by hundreds of rupeees every day. The customer service were not able to give me proper reasons and failed to advice that internet browsing was not happening through GPRS because Mobile Office settings were incorrect.
They failed to tell me that Airtel Live charges through WAP_ALL gateway was hundreds of rupees for every access unlike 98 Rs for GPRS.

Please advice on my next steps.

Subject: Re: FW: [protected] : BALANCE DEDUCTION

Hi team,

I am not sure what really did with Airtel. Whenevr I got up my balance get deducted. Today it was RS. 215.

In the afternoon, I raised this issue and your agent has confimed me that my balance will be returned as i did nt activate any services ( Req # [protected] ).

At 6 PM today, I called customer care to check the status..i got funniest answer stating..u have been charged because you were surffing through airtel gprs. Where as I still have same old MO settings. Your CC agent told me that GPRS recharge is for only download and nt for surffing..... Amazing and shocked. So he asked to recharge it again and even asked me to take MO settings.

Guys...please educate ur team or me. If after every recharge I will have to confirm settings then there is some issue from ur side.

Please advice me what to do now?

I live in South Bangalore and have been facing regular drops in my connection for the past 6 months. Every time I place a complaint, an executive comes and tells me the same things that there is some copper issue in the line that is coming in to my building and would be taken care of by changing the copper cable. For the past 6 months they have been changing copper (or so they tell me) every time I make a complaint. I must have at least 15 Service Request numbers with me and still the same happens every alternate week! What kind of a joke is this? I am paying Rs1200 every month for this crap and I am helpless as I can't afford not being connected even a single day in order to switch to another provider.

Airtel DSL in my area has to be the most terrible broadband connection I have every experienced. Shame on you.

Hi,

I would like to file a complaint against Airtel as despite of repeated calls at customer care, I'm not provided with specific deadline to resolve issue. From 8th May, I'm unable to send fresh sms to any number. Whenever I compose a sms it instantly goes in the outbox, showing "resend" for a very long time. And this is happening with all the numbers I would like to sms.

But whenever I reply to any particular sms, it goes instantly without showing "Resend" option. I raised my complaint on 8th May itself and I was informed that my problem will be resolved and I'll get a call on 11th May. But to my surprise they closed my complaint stating it is resolved, neither my problem was resolved nor I got any confirmation call.

And as per the latest status they say they have again opened my complaint but aren't providing me the deadline. Can you please look into this and guide me accordingly. I even got my handset checked and they say if its the problem of the handset not a single sms should go but replies are going. My handset is Nokia E-7.

Best Regards

Vivek Sharma

Hi,

I am one of you customers having a relationship with Airtel for over 11 yrs now. Currently, I have a compliant for my broadband connection with number[protected]. Overall the journey so far was good; however, I am really upset with the rude behavior by one of your “Managers” named Gaurav. While I was trying to explain him the issue and having a resolution he was rude and mis-behaved stating I can proceed to disconnect my broadband services. IS THIS THE CUSTOMER CERNTRICNESS at Airtel for their customers?

Back-ground: About two months ago I had requested an upgrade of my Broadband plan from Rs. 899/- to Rs. 1099/- looking at some of the ads in the newspaper and receiving calls from Airtel to mention about the benefits of this plan. I was made to understand that while I upgrade my bill plan to 1099, not only I will have broadband benefits I will also have 300 calls free per month.

I had my previous bill (last month) as per my expectations i.e. Rs. 1099 + taxes coming with a total of Rs. 1212/-. I made a call to your call center yesterday i.e. 10th May’11, after looking at the inflated bill that I received yesterday. It has a charge of Rs. 300, which I never requested for. Since systems were not working yesterday, the agent mentioned I would get a call from them within two hours or so- which never happened.

As I did not receive the call yesterday, I again made a call today i.e. 11th May’11 at 8:45am. I spoke to one of your call center agents at 198 and she was very courteous and realized the issue and guess the error from Airtel. She asked me to hold and she would transfer the line to her manager. While I was holding for 7 mins, I had a word with Gaurav. He understood the issue, however was very RUDE in behavior and adamant that this is the BILL PLAN OFFERED BY AIRTEL – you as a customer do not have a choice. You will have to live with it as I don’t have much option. He also mentioned, if you don’t want – disconnect your connection and he was transferring the call further to relevant department while it got disconnected.

ISSUES:
• Why I would pay for something I never requested for. I agreed for an upgrade of 899 to 1099 with an understanding that I will have a bill of about 1200/- per month. The bill I have received is about 30% inflated (Rs. 1543/-), which I NEVER requested for
• How can airtel force upon a plan to customer, without his/ her consent
• It was a wrong selling by Airtel staff and now customer is being unnecessary harassed to pay more for a plan that is not my choice
• RUDE and INAPPROPRIATE behavior from Airtel staff is UNACCEPTABLE to me. I want a written apology from Gaurav on this.

Let me know if this would need me to proceed for disconnection of my broad band services?

Looking forward to your support and action on immediate basis.

Thanks & Regards,
Sudhir

She apolozised me for that and later asked me to do the final settlement by paying Rs 2784/- .When i went to the airtel outlet for paying the bill they said that they need a dummy for paying my as my previous number was blocked.When in turn i contacted them they were asking me to deposit in their bank account,for which i refused.Later she called me again and asked to make the payment by 30 May ,2011.
After two days i received a mail from legal department stating

When i called up the number mentioned there ,there was no proper response from them.How can they do this without proper communication among them and asking us to pay more amount.
Im really vexed up with their poor services and no proper information available.When i ask them to send their executives to collect the money they say its not possible.

Hi,

Myself bibha an Ex- Airtel DTH user. My customer Id is [protected] and connection was first installed in Gurgaon dated 21st March 2009. on 11th Feb 2011 i shifted to mumbai and asked for re-installation on 5th March. Airtel fellows visited my new address for 4-5 times and couldn't re-install due to some directional problem which led to non-connectivity. since then i logged complaints for many time and every time the same unsuccessful story. later on i cancelled all my requests and shifted to some other service provider. noe today 10/05/2011 again i tried for re-installation request then the airtel guys are telling that since my account is -ve (negative) they can't log a request.

My complaint is 1. how they are not capable enough to re-install

2. if not re-installed how the renal is being charged on daily basis

3. Now what to do with their instruments like (set-top box, remote, antena, wire etc)

4. why not taking request to install at some fesible location.

I did a mobile number portability from Tata Indicom to Airtel in March 2011 after contacting Airtel, Rajajinagar outlet. A person took my documents and Rs 300 cash as refundable deposit. The manager of the outlet told me this will be refunded after I stay for 3 months with Airtel.
When my account was activated, I observed that there was no mention of the Rs 300 refundable deposit in my name. I called the manager and the call centre. They assured me it will get updated in two days, as there was a backend issue.
From then till now I have been calling and writing to customer care, nodal officer and finally appellate authority at airtel. Other than replying that they have forwarded to the concered team, there is no other response. I also scanned a copy of my application form which mentions that Rs 300 has been collected from me, but no response.
The problem seems to be bigger and lot of Airtel customers may be losing money like this and this may have the support within and outside Airtel.
Request you to highlight this to the concerned authorities.
