Dear All,
I wold like to tell all of you that airtel has the worst website in terms of checking bills online..
The payment option always seem to work.. but the bill guide and account information dont work 9 out of 10 times..
Even the Airtel customer care people told that they could not check my bill because there applications were running very slow and they needed atleast 12 hours to check it..

The only thing the i would want to suggest Mr. Mittal is that your company makes billions in profits.. Please care to spend a substantial amount on your website and designers if you want to give the option of online payment...

Airtel broadband speeds are good and stable.

The problem is with the "my airtel" website. The design and usability sucks. Login is difficult due to traffic, payment errors all the time. How can a private telecom company sport such a slow website. Their executives call all the time for payment, its frustrating.

Any senior exec in airtel watching this space?
Yeah, I agree. This site is down most of the time. Even IRCTC is better then this site.
Worst website by any service provider i have ever seen.
Even govt. websites are better then this.
It took more then 1hr for login & putting recharge for my dth. connection.

    I was bought Airtel Prepaid connection ([protected]) on 18-March-2010 from Sagar Stationery Bashyam circle , Sadashiva Nagar, Bangalore-80.

    When i was bought they collected from me Address proof and Photo id proof ( Employee letter pad & Voter id with Tamilnadu address) with Friend No written in it.

    26-March-2011 Evening they called and verified they asked the addresses and said verification was over.

    The Next Day 27th-March-2011 evening they sent sms says that verification failure and provide the documents to Airtel relationship centre again. They Cut my outgoing calls.

    Then i tried to the customer care 121 they said my document i not reached and i said i got the verification call and all. Even then they said to produce the document again, I said whatever the document provided i true and i asked.


    One time they saying verification failure and other time documents not submitted then i catch the fellow who sold the sim card they said it has been submitted in Malleswaram Airtel relationship centre.


    I demanded if verification fails say what is fault i have provided ( As per my knowledge they didn't verified) . Then one time they said document not reach . Then i asked with out reached the document how i got a call for verification after a week of got the connection ?

    The Airtel wants to twist the problem and wants their customers to run behind for their executives not working properly ..


    Finally i submitted the same documents and got the new connection from AIRCEL . Their executives came personally to my office and residences and verified now the connections is live without any troubled me. Then why this very big networks fellows doesn't doing their formalities.

    I have all the mails return to the airtel customer care is with me and i got the bill from to whom i am purchased the Sim card too.

    Kindly give the direction to get back to my all the money back from the AIRTEL.


    Regards,
    K.Prabu

      not changing my connection from Corporate to Individual Account

      Address: North West Delhi, Delhi

      I had word with Airtel customer support on 02 May,2011 for changing my corporate mobile number to individual number, since i left that company (ibibo Web Pvt. Ltd.) long back.

      They had told me "You need to get a mail sent from your last company official email ID to [protected]@airtel.in"
      and i did the same. On Tue, May 3, 2011 at 4:07 PM a mail has been sent:

      I gave the request of my Airtel for porting to vodafone vide porting no. AD713697 with expiry dt. 25/04/2011. However, it was rejected by Airtel without informing me any reason. I must also mention the fact that all my dues were clear on this date.

      I again gave the new porting request to them vide porting code AD683184. I even made an excess payment of Rs. 100 so that they could not reject it saying the balance was not clear. I could have paid more, but their online system does not allow me to pay more than my current dues.

      Airtel called me yesterday (after 15 days of my porting request), saying that my current dues were Rs. 400. I told them I have no problem in making the payment, but when I made the upfront payment of Rs. 100, they should have done the porting that day itself. It is obvious that dues will increase with passage of time, and I cannot keep making the payments everyday. (Their system just doesn't allow me to make excess payment!!). Further, they give me petite reason of Rs. 400 as excuse, when my credit limit by them is Rs. 6,900.

      Anyways, I made the payment of Rs. 400 online immediately as I did not want to fight with their stupid customer service. I actually tried making payment of Rs. 500, but their online system again does not allow it!!

      Still, Till today, the porting has not been done. Neither Airtel, nor Vodafone are willing to inform me the reason. All my mails to their CC dept. are unreplied.

      Just a quick information for my reason for porting: I have registered many complaints since past 4 years to Airtel regarding network problem in my area. I had to even approach their Appellat authority for this. Finally, in their mail dated 28/08/2010 (in reply to my service request no.[protected], they informed me that it wasn’t possible to rectify the situation in my area.

      To say the least, it is pathetic service from Airtel. They cannot give proper service, then they accept their mistake and say they cannot improve their network, and then when I want to use the MNP for better network, they are not willing to port me out. Don't know what they actually want from me, except from harassing me!!

      For your information, my mobile no. is 98****3363

      Hi Rakesh,

      I have written you the mail with my contact no. However, note further what Airtel is doing to me:

      After writing atleast 6 more mails to your [protected]@in.airtel.com, they called me yesterday, and again informed me that my unbilled balance was around Rs. 563, and that I should make another payment of Rs. 63 so that Airtel could do the porting. Are you guys playing games with me? First, I made a payment of Rs. 100 for unbilled amount, then you called me again to make payment of Rs. 400, now again you are asking me to clear the unbilled amount of Rs. 63!! How many time am I supposed to make payments to you??

      Anyways, I have made one more payment of Rs. 150 to you. YOU GUYS ARE NOW TRYING TO HARRASSING ME ON THIS MATTER! You are delaying the MNP process, and then coming back to me every 3rd day asking me to make more payment. Either you think I am a thief who will run away with your Rs. 63, or plain and simply, you are trying to harass me by first not improving your services, and secondly not porting out my no. sine past 20 days.
      Rakesh, it clearly shows how irresponsible and insensitive you are towards the customers! I have not only replied to your comment on the above thread, but also mailed you with my complete contact details and details of complaint in my mail dated 15/05/2011 to [protected]@in.airtel.com. You never called me back, but instead feel the issue has been resolved! Funny, isn't it...

      If you cannot hear me back now on an internet public platform, you can never ever hear me back!

      You guys suck...

          Hello Sir/Madam,
          I have taken the airtel connection with the plan, Bill Plan Charge Future Value 299 Plan. As per this plan for the first month 1GB data GPRS is free. This connection was activated on 23/04/2011. But with in 2 days on 25/04/2011 the unbilled amount reached more than Rs.2200 due to the GPRS. My mobile is an iphone and some applications will connect GPRS without my knowledge. So on 26/04/2011 my outgoing was disconnected reasoning I have crossed my credit limit and when I contacted customer care they said I have to pay Rs.800 to reactivate my outgoing. So I paid it on 26/04/2011 Rs.800 to activate. Then I contacted to customer care to deactivate GPRS on 26/04/2011 since I couldn’t track the usage of GPRS. Customer care people deactivated GPRS without informing that if I deactivate in middle then it would be prorate basis and they didn’t have share any information mentioning we can give clear picture after the bill is generated. But now the bill is generated and the total amount comes to Rs.1436.35. Now I wanted a waiver for the GPRS amount for which as per my plan of 1 GB usage and not to burden the customers with wrong commitments. I have attached the bill plan details. Please do the needful.

              The SIM is alerted to me (Sanghamitra Swain) for life time and it was valid 20 years from date of purchase. Since that day onwards I am using same number and mentioned in my CVs, Friends for meeting and offical purpose. Now the same SIM was alerted to some one by the Airtel Company. I am not confirm weather the Company alert that one to some body or the person using my SIM? Customer care says we will not say the name of the owner of [protected]. How come it is possible? I am the owner of this SIM without my permission or any written document how they alert my Life time SIM to other person. Its the right of the Life time SIM user that the SIM should be belong to the owner upto 20 Years. Only after 20 Years the owner may want to continue the same number ,If only the owner don’t wont to continue the number the company has right to reprocess (recycled) the SIM and alert to other person. But in my case the SIM was valid till 2015. Before 2015 how the company dare to reprocess (recycled) the SIM and alerted to other person. Its mean the person has no value before the company.

                This is regarding my Airtel broadband connection with Tel no: [protected](Bangalore). A connection registered in the name of my wife Arathi Prabhu.

                Just want highlight to what an extent representatives of Airtel can stoop down to.

                We stopped using this connection by the end of 2010 after we received a bill which was 3times more than our regular usage. The bill had a charge of 1300/- odd amount which I disputed and had multiple compliants to a pathetic airtel customer care which was never resolved. In the mean time I started receiving multiple calls from airtel asking us to make the payment and all the calls did have a similar pattren would start by they asking to make the payment and I would say that there was a charge which was disputed and the minute that was resolved I would make the payment.

                Disgusted by this ordeal requested airtel to discconect the connection for which they said that untill and unless the payment is made it cannot be cancelled.
                Then during mid of February a representative of Airtel came by saying that he would need to take the instrument and the modem for which did provide a acknowledgement. After which there was no other calls from any of the airtel representatives.

                All of a sudden on the 11th of May 2011 I received a call from Rajeev Singh identifying himself as a section chief at a court in Delhi and they had sent 3 summons which we never received and asked us to be there in the Delhi court in 30 mins. If not there would be a "Non Bailable warrant" issued against my wife's name and there would be a fine of 53,000 to be paid when asked what was the call about he directed me to CK Oberoi who was an advocate at the court. He said that there were 3 summons that were sent (which I was not aware of) and also then said that this was regarding our airtel broadband connection payment which was due. He said that best way is a out of court settlement. He sugessted that we make the outstanding payment in the next 30 mins and provide him with the receipt number so that he could withdraw the case against my wife.

                By this time I was completely shaken by this, went out immediately and made a payment at one of the Airtel centers for the amount due and called both these gentlemen back and provided the receipt number to which they said that there was nothing to worry now and they would take care of things.

                One thing that suprised me was how did I miss those 3 summons; we live an apartment where there is a 24X7 security and they would not miss thrice. Out of sheer curiousity I just googled CK oberoi and airtel and walla! the story unfolded.
                There were a whole set of people who had gone through the same experience.

                I am sure airtel's SPINELESS customer service team will not resolve this. I am so happy that I am not associated with airtel anymore.

                Best,

                I would encourage all people who face this to directly file a police complaint immediately and take legal action, only way to stop Airtel from their dirty, cheap and criminal pranks. While filing the police complaint also include names of Collection Heads so that they are called upon too.
                Rajesh Ranga, i would recommend you not post below every complaint saying the issue has been sorted as i just spoke to Nagaraj and he said his case has not been solved and the current state is that Airtel still robbed him and hasnt got his money back.

                If you are an airtel employee in collections i would recommend you put these people onto the Head of Collections directly and sort their issues out, people have already gone through enough trauma. Incase you dont have contacts of people within your own company, let me know and i'll give them to you so that people dont get harassed anymore. Please understand that what your collections team is doing is criminal, cheap and dirty.

                      Hi,
                      I have the Airtel DTH Connection with Customer ID [protected]. There is signal issue from last 7 days, Not getting the signal for hours and hours. So calling up Customer Support 12150 from last 7 days, I almost made 33 calls to this customer support .Every time they will register new complaint for the same problem and will be telling problem will be resolved within 3:30 PM tomorrow. No body turned from last days to resolve the problem. Even they are disconnecting my phone.They are giving fake phone numbers with the complaint registartion number, Which they will messge to our Mobiles. When tried to contact local manager here in Mangalore (Phone No : [protected]), they are also telling technician is not avialable and even they are disconneting my call. This is the once of the WORST and HOPLESS Servcie ever i saw. They are event dedcuting amount from my account daily for the servcie which is not resloved Please tell me what should i do for this.
                      Please mail me.
                      yours faithfully.

                      My DTH service developed a snag on[protected]. upon visit by engineer i was told that set top box is faulty and he took away the same and told that it will be replaced. since, then i am being told everyday that we have no set top boxes available and wait. the wait has been very unpleasant. calling the customercare delay without any positive response from their side. i want to get rid of this DTH service from AIRTEL as they are very poor in after sale service. atleast i should get the refund for the dish and set top box so that i can opt for any better service provider. i have even mailed to [protected]@airtel.in without any response.
                      I strongly agree with this.your local agency in kollam, kerala, Great Enterprises, Ramankulangara is ridiculing me from the last week by tempting me to provide the airtel HD connection now and then.my regn no.is p-2170. I registered for the connection on 28/04/2011 in the telephone no.[protected] and [protected].It is too shameful for your reputation.beware of the local agencies.sreejith.c, kollam, kerala
                      it is for a positive effect to serve the customer as they are the spokesmen for ypur brand
                      Customer Id [protected]-airtel digital tv

                      From Monday onwards[protected] I am contacting on Airtel customer care helpline [protected] to solve Technical error but no one providing any solution. I call them for atleast 30Itimes in this week but every time they commit to send engineer on same or next day. But fact is that no one visited my home untill 20-06-11. And after visiting on 20-01-11 they installed old and defected piece of setup box. Again I start calling and registring my call to customer care and also at the same time I am calling there Nodal officer Mr. K Rao. But the responce and service I am getting is entirly unsatisfactory. Even for the period when there is signal problem, airtel deducted my account at the rate of Rs. 9 per day.
                      One request no. which is registered is 9102873.
                      Now on today they instaled new setup box again.
                      For the same i already in advance deposit Rs. 350 in my account. As you see there no delay in y job but the way Airtel giving service is unsatisfactory.

                      Error code Id B001 in the set up box


                      I had invested atleast 5 to 6 hrs in talking to solve the problem, it causes some where Rs 10000 to me as my time invested in solving the problem.

                      Please do the judgement ..

                      regards

                        Address: Karnataka

                        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.

                        airtel GPRS setting — GPRS activation not done & ignorant customer service

                        dear sir...
                        [protected] is my airtel no....they are not activating my GPRS service and also not sending me GPRS setting....when i pursue to to custimercare they barred my no....its really hurting a such derogatory action froma company of such repute...
                        pliz help me
                        As per your comment I called 121 to find out about the resolution you have mentioned. The customer service representative indicated that as per records the charges levied are still valid.

                        I would like to inform again that I had called on 26th March and 29th March to find out the reason for escalating bill (unbilled) amount.
                        • Though 2GB GPRS [protected]@ 20KN/30Ps was activated with Rental Rs 98 on 26/03/2011 on my connection, your customer service representative did not tell me that the browsing was happening through ‘Airtel Live’ and not through GPRS.
                        • He did not inform me about the charges associated with ‘Airtel Live’.
                        • He did not inform me on how to properly set the Mobile Office settings on my handset.
                        • Instead he informed me to wait for another 22 days for the bill to be generated
                        If your customer service department does not have the necessary technical infrastructure to look and tell why the unbilled amount is increasing day by day, you need to create such an infrastrucure to properly advice the customer on what is going on instead of asking the customer do continue the status quo for another 22 days and further incur costs.
                        • He informed me that the unbilled amount would show high amount but discounts would be applied later as per the 98Rs GPRS plan.
                        • I had never requested for ‘Airtel Live’ feature to be enabled on my connection. Without my knowledge Airtel has activated this ‘Airtel Live’ service on my connection.
                        • So in my opinion all these charges are invalid.
                        I am curious to know what the TRAI regulations say about the following two aspects:

                        1. Companies like AirTel enabling 'AirTel Live' kind of 'value added services' on all connections: I believe this kind of value added services are turned ON by default in the customer's connection . If an ignorant customer uses these services accidentally (or thinking that he is using some other service) he will be charged for those services. The customer does have much of say on this since he has used those services. It is his mistake. What does TRAI say about such a revenue model?

                        2. Companies like AirTel not having complete details about the customer's unbilled amount. Since they don't have necessary technology with them to dig into and find out what is going on current activities on a connection and from which access points the traffic is flowng (in the yet to be billed cycle), they ask the customer to wait till a bill is generated. Till the bill the generated the ignorant customer will continue to make the same mistakes and finally ends up paying a hefty price for the service provider's technical insufficiency/incompetence. What does TRAI regulations say about such situations?

                          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?

                          Regards,

Once you are registered on the same, all promotional calls/SMS from telemarketers adhering to the TRAI guideline, to your number will be stopped within the specified time of 45 days. All registered telemarketers can access this list and they are required to deselect those numbers from promotions as per TRAI mandate.
                          We would like to inform you that currently your number is not registered under NDNC registry, to activate that same we request you to dial 1909 and follow the instruction to register your number.

                            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.

                            3 days since my last service request and when I call customer service, I get a response that you will get a confirmation message when the issue is resolved! that's extremely helpful! thanks!
                            4th day, i get the field engineers number from customer service. When I call the field engineer, he says that he doesn't have the work order.
                            I was out of town, only to come back and see that airtel service is still terrible. I had my connection drop every 5 minutes on the 5th of July, so I raised an SR informing that I have been repeatedly facing this issue and would like a permanent solution or will discontinue using Airtel. SR 48482158 was raised and I was given an assurance that the matter will be resolved once and for all. Like I had not hear that one before. The matter got resolved, Internet was fine on the 6th of July, today, 7th of July, its gone again. Completely gone, I guess that's what the customer service person meant by solving my problem permanently. I have raised SR 48604124 again, and I got an assurance yet again that this matter will be resolved once and for all.

                            I am really really frustrated now and am very disappointed at the kind of service I am getting for the money I am spending.
                            19 hours since the SR was generated, no one from Airtel has visited me, the connection keeps dropping, randomly goes for hours. No response from [protected]@in.airtel.com either.
                            Airtel engineer did visit on Friday evening, made their checks and told me the line in the building is faulty and I should ask the building maintenance to get it fixed, not Airtel. Strangely, my Internet hasn't dropped or lost connection even once after that. Did the magical elves come and fixed my "faulty building lines?", I don't think so.
                            Ok my grievance is back again. This afternoon, my Internet went out, called customer service around 1pm, they said it would be taken care of by 6:00pm maximum time (SR[protected]. Until 6pm nobody called me and I still had no Internet so I called customer service again, they said it would take a maximum time o[censored]pto 8pm on 13th. Now I am supposed to not have broadband for 2 days, back to the stone age. Good job Airtel for sucking each time there is an issue.

                              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

                                Airtel is the worst operator in this regard. Other day I had my friend lose 50 rs on some stupid wallpaper, a sms or something came and as he was just typing something else he clicked unknowingly and wallpaper download began. He is a dnd customer. These airtel buggers give a rats relevance to dnd
                                i agree with you and all my friends, those using airtel not satisfied with airtel. Very bad company and you can see how Rakesh Ranga, Airtel Presence (Airtel Customer Service Team) respond my complain and without doing anything, saying my problem is resolved.
                                Since i write here, there is more unwanted sms coming daily and i am 100% sure Rakesh Ranga
                                Airtel Presence (Airtel Customer Service Team) is doing all to distrub me. Even he neither try to contact me nor solve my problem but creating more and more problem.
                                Airtel compnay should take strong action against these kinds of person.
                                But is use of DND and i am getting 10-15sms daily and even writing them since last two months...
                                they are useless...
                                Its over two weeks and still my complain has not reslove. Can you please forward this case to your senior officer or some responsible person in your deptt.

                                Since i write here, there is more unwanted sms coming daily and i am 100% sure Rakesh Ranga

                                      Date: May 11, 2011

                                      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,
