I have a prepaid connection from Airtel. During the time of registration, i opted for the NDNC registration. But after a month of service, suddenly they started making promotional calls to my number and suddenly one day they activated a pack and deduced 2 rs per day making my no. unusable. I mailed them a no. of times for a response but got only auto response. But after more than 10 days,...

My airtel dth is no working since 18.04.2011 and the complaint has been made from time to time on help line and each time they given me request no. and committed to provide service within 24 hrs. but before completion of 24 hrs the sent me massage that ur complaint has been resolved but I never my complaint resolved. They r debiting my account but till date I m waiting to get my problem resolved . According to me AIR TEL DTH is the most worst service provider in our country

Airtel is shaping my torrent traffic without my consent and are not admitting to doing this. Quite frankly speaking I think this is wrong and illegal.

I question their ethics and their loyalty to their customers.

HI,

I have recently switched to Airtel from Vodafone. The Airtel network seems to be very weak at my home making the cellphone ineffective from any communication. I frequently get no signals, dropped calls, broken voice. This is making it very hard to use Airtel in the locality.

I live in Abhishikta II, kalikapur (9th Floor). Every resident I have talked to has opted out of Airtel due to similar network problems. Can this problem be solved? or do I too have to opt for another network that works here?

Hi,

My number is [protected].
I receive so many promotional SMS.
I have activated DND Services so many times.
But it never worked.
I receive SMS names as TM-####, TD-#### etc.
I have asked Airtel Customer Care but they never listen instead they always speak in attitude.
Sometime they disconnect the call when they put my call on hold.
I don't know why they do this. They have disconnected my call so many times.
and about DND, it never worked.
I also have sent emails to them regarding this problem on [protected]@in.airtel.com.
they always say it will start working from next week. but for last one year, I'm tolerating bulk SMS Service.
I am so much frustrated, sometime I get so much angry that I through my mobile on the floor.
This is really pathetic and ridiculous.

Please take a serious action, or if this website is just to earn money from ad then shut it down.
because I have complained on this website before also but no action was took.

Thanks,
Parteek

This is C. Sudha rani, with the airtel digital tv customer Id:[protected] installed in the first week of April, 2011. It has been activated after 3 days from installation, that too making somany calls to dealer and customer care department.The package was at Rs. 1790/- for 7 months. But we are not getting many channels, which have mentioned in the package. I have complained somany times to customer care without taking the complaint number. I thought that they are unable to solve the problem and I want to go to consumer forum for the same. So I called again on 27th April, 2011 to customer care, and taken the complaint number as 7422570, and customer care executive expressed his feeling that I can go to consumer forum if the problem hasn't been solved within 24 hours.. Again I have called on 28th april, regarding the complaint. Same thing has been repeated by customer care department of Airtel Digital TV. I think Airtel digital tv makes life hell really.

Worst Customer Care for Pre-Paid clients - It is like a government unit.

I am having a really bad experience with Black Berry Services on airtel prepaid. I have been wasting 1-2 hours daily on customer care (both 7070 and 198) but no one seems to have a clue as to what needs to be done. So many times people just put me on hold for like 10 minutes before cutting the call. Every time I ask to speak to a supervisor - I am either cut off or put on hold and then cut off.

Here are the details of my issue:
- I had my blackberry curve 9300 handset (with number [protected] from Delhi) stolen on 23rd April on which I had Rs. 399 monthly BB4 plan active from the 10th of April
- I purchased a duplicate sim card and a new blackberry curve 9300 on 24th April. The same day I called up the customer care (both 198 and 7070) - explained them the same and I was told the service will be activated in next 24 hours
- In the next 24 hours the service is not activated - I call up the customer care again and I am told the same thing. The service will be restored in the next 24 hours. A complaint has been registered with the server team - and they need to activate the service on your new handset.
- The same story continues on 26th and 27th also - the service will be activated in next 24 hours. Every time I tell them that I am hearing the same response from customer care - I am told that the complaint is escalated and it will deifinitely be solved.
- On 28th - the cutomer care executive (7070) tells me that If I really want the service to be restored immediately then I should deactivate the current BB services and then reactivate again. This way the services will DEFINITELY work. Based on this suggestion - I deactivate the services and again activate the services leading to deduction of Rs. 399 from my balance. However the services are not restored.
- I call up the customer care (7070) and they tell me the same story again - The server team need to activate the services and will be done in next 24 hours!!!! This is unbelievable. I was asked to deactivate the services and then activate so that the services will start working immediately!!! This is cheating the customer! Ask them to deactivate and then reactivate the services!
- I have tried to call the customer care three times today - and asked to talk to a Supervisor. Every time I have been put on hold for 8-9 minutes and then the call is cut!! What is happening in Airtel Customer Care - I am thinking of I should file a complaint against such behavior. So much of my time, effort and money has been wasted since Sunday.

Sincere advise to all consumers - Please switch to Vodafone or some other Service Provider using number portability option. I am definitely going to do so.

Hi Sunil Sir,

2nd Open complaint since 8th,Feb 2011. I had a n issue regarding a refund of Rs.300 which was suppose to be adjusted every month. I called up to discuss the same. The agent was good for nothing ..I asked him to escalate the call to his Manager. He said I am not in a mood and my Manager is not in and started misbehaving. With half an hour I started getting call from Punjab (several PCO and mobile numbers ) Later I discovered that he was the same agent with whom I spoke to in Airtel. He has been very abusive and threatening on call. He had all my personal data which was against the Data Protection Act.

What are you going to do about it? I haven't heard anything about it till date.

An early reply is solicited

Akkashh

Hi Sunil Sir,
PFA the chain mail which I have been writing to your company. No resolution been given till date.
Need you to intervene. I have sent the copy of the mails to TRAI & Ministers. You know it well that no one is going to do anything so your agents also behave in a same manner, the way you behave.

After listening to the whole story yolur agents reply -- He is unable to find why did I write a mail.
(Doesn't it sounds funny ?) That proves that notes are not left on my a/c. Complaints never been marked.

Hi,

I thought you might be having all the complaints registered on my system.

I was in Delhi using the BB service from MTNL & a very satisfied customer. On
30th May 2010, when I moved to Noida (Ph:[protected] I got attracted to the
IPTV deal and the service was provided to me within no time.

Since then, I have gone through nightmares. Most of the time my Broadband was
not working. However TV was working..Time to time obstacles were there.
Engineer use to visit and it use to work for a time being.

Now, its is a torture , On every month after 18th My Broadband stops working &
I have to call customer services. They are good for nothing. Either they'll
place the call on long hold or terminate the call , if I ask them to escalate
the call further to their Supervisor or the Manager.

Luckily, I spoke to Mr.Sagar Dubey who was very apologetic, knowledgeable,
patient and has promised to reolve the query. He did not terminate my call in
the mid & assured to reolve the problem permanently. My complaint is nothing
against Mr.Dubey. I wish if Airtel has a team of Sagar Dubey's.

However, I have suffered for almost a year now. I have been paying the bills in
time without using the services. How are you going to compensate it. What
actions been taken till date for not resolving my problem ? Is there anyone in
Airtel who can listen to those calls which were hung up on me without listening
my query.

I had a word with TRAI & the lady asked me to spk to Vikrant Pandey or Imran
Khan. However, when I called up the agents picked up the call and they were
extremely rude and said they won't escalate the calls further as they are not
in.

My question is why whenever any customer calls in for their problem why these
agents say that the next level is not in the office.

What is Mr.Sunil Bharti Mittal is going to do about it ?

An early reply is solicited.

Technology )

I applied for the Airtel Broadband connection on 9th of april 2011 in Madhapur, hyderabad. A sales representative came at my home and collected my ID proof xerox, electricity bill, photo along with 1800 rupees for the 3 months charges and promised me that connection would be through till 11th of april.But they failed to get connection to my home even after a week passed , they told about some technical difficulty/hurdle and asked for more time since they need permission to dig the road. but on 16th of april I refused for more time and I asked for the cancellation of the connection and asked my money back. They took my cancellation request but since then I have been waiting for my amount.

Please do the needful and return back my amount.
Thanks,

Hi,
We have fixed landline connection of airtel from last few years with three numbers(4233834/35/36, Account Number:[protected] registered under company, Satyam Software Solutions Pvt Ltd. One of the line[protected] went dead on 13th January 2011(due to some technical fault at airtel's end) and inspite of regular complaints(for which various reference numbers were alloted by customer care department); nobody from airtel took care of it for next two months. I even stopped the February month bill payment in March 2011 for few days so that somebody from airtel will pay attention to my plea and fix the problem so as to get the bill cleared from our side. But on the contrary, they stopped the outgoing services for the rest two numbers also. In late march 2011, airtel's collection department talked to me regarding the bill payments and convinced me that the dead phone lines will be activated in no time & the bill amount for malfunctioned line will be waived off if I pay the bill instantly as it was airtel's year closing and if the case stretched further, they will not be able to help me out as per airtel's "some" policies(Never heard of such policies before). Instead of hearing my grievance for loss of business due to malfunctioned phone line and corresponding unactivated phone lines, they told me that we will not be liable for even the waiver if I didn't pay the bill immediately.

As these are my business numbers and I need to continue with the same numbers in future too, I sincerely gave cash payment to airtel on the same day(29 March 2011) and got the "waiver letter" which stated an adjustment of Rs. 1400/- to be reflected in the invoice generated after adjustment date i.e. 29 March 2011. Now the situation is that airtel is asking for the payment of 1400/- as balance from last months bill(February/March 2011, the waived off amount). Even after explaining them the whole story and providing scanned copy of the so called "waiver letter" to airtel's representatives via email: [protected]@airtel.in on 09-04-11 & [protected]@yahoo.co.in on 21-04-11, services to my landline was discontinued from 15-04-11, reason being, non-payment of due amount of Rs. 1400/-.
I kept requesting to the airtel representatives that my lines should be activated as the waiver was provided to me last month but to no avail.
Even today, I had interactions with representatives of airtel for the issue to be resolved but they again started playing the same game, insisting me to pay the bill amount for last month(March 2011) & then only my request for waiver will be logged and my lines will be activated. I have clearly told airtel representatives that this waiver should have been logged immediately after issuing of waiver letter and my phone lines should not be down just because of this silly reason. I have also assured airtel that I will be paying the bill amount but not before my lines get activated and a suitable compensation provided for the loss of business. On this, the representative at the collection office of airtel said that he will not give any assurance for loss of service & the corresponding compensation and clearly told me to pay the bill so as to log the waiver and activate the phone lines.

I hereby want to put this request to the concerned authorities that this service provider is manipulating the consumers on its will. The various departments meant for consumer support and grievances are just to misguide, compel and fool customers at various level so that the consumer doesn't have option other than abiding to airtel's rules & policies which the consumer has no idea. I would like to bring in notice, as these phone numbers are my primary business numbers and due to discontinued services from last 14 days and in the past months, I have incurred a substantial loss of more than Rs. 1000000/- in my business. Pain & suffering due to loss of peace of mind, time and energy in explaining airtel's executives at various levels are of no count and match.

Will certainly ask this forum that my request should be heard and proper legal action along with penalties should be levied on airtel. Airtel should also be advised to remove this conspiratorial behavior from its various departments which are meant for customer support and not for fooling & looting people.

Thanks & Regards

Hi all

Im Rajesh from nagpur and my mobile number is [protected]

Daily I receive a message from AD-54321 and it states as follows " thanks for downloading pernilla wall 38 from airtel You have been charged rs 99... thanks for using games club subscription service from Airtel. You have been charged with Rs.5. live cricket on mobile tv http://airteltv.co:8080"

I tried to call the customer care but he falts refused to refund the amount deducted They are not able to provide me solution, also daily I have to waste 30 minutes in speaking with the Customer Care. Some Customer care officers are not trained properly and they say I have did something wrong, I will then cut the call and try again to the Customer care and get a correct person.

Why the Airtel defrauding users?

Same thing has happened on my wifes android also and this daily and how much is Airtel earning daily by cheating its customers. Airtel you should be ashamed for doing this.

the only solution before me is to opt for MNP :)

Airtel is a big cheat they are issuing bills even if you phone is dead.
16740

I have been getting a message saying that I have renewed for the airtel's [protected]@5 service and rupees 5 has been deducted from my balance. I have not subscribed to it. but it is deducting money every day. I called customer care and told them about the problem but they cut the call without intimating. Immediately i called again and told them that i called few minutes before and i did not get any respone. He asked me to wait, in order to check details but he did not come back. i waited for 20 minutes on line. And when i call again it is not allowing me to connect to the customer care executive anymore. Instead asked me to dial *121# . But eventhough no use. Plz deactivate this service on my number. My number is :[protected].

I have requested Airtel DTH to close the connection and refund the balance amount Rupees 959 in my account [protected] last month. They have done CPE recovery on 03/04/2011 after following up with them for 30 days. Even after CPE recovery they have not refunded my money. Am following up with them daily basis, there is no response to emails, service request are being closed down without being resolved. Its one of the worst service providers. Request the authorities to refund my money at the earliest.

Subject: REMINDER 3: FINAL REMINDER & COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS WITH AIRTEL SERVICE AT TWO NUMBERS

Dear All,

It comes with a lot of grief as the patience I displayed, Airtel was truly unworthy of the same. I hold a number 88..226...(You can know the two numbers I complain about thru the complaint number as its unsafe to put them on a public forum) I had visted the Airtel office and met Mr Nand Kishore with all the below mentioned problems and he was supposed to revert back to me by 8th April Thats the next day with a solution. As they had not creditted back the amount I had paid in the initial(500 rs). I called three times to Mr Nanad Kishore on 8th, which you can also check in the gemntleman's call log, but neither did he honour his commitment, nor did he call back. Then Mr Saurabh Kumar, one of my aquaintance working with Airtel who had met me when I was talking to Mr Nandkishore, called me as I had called him after calling nandkishore and tried offering me a solution. He said that 200 rs will be immediately creditted and then 100 each will be creditted every month. When I asked that I want to speak to Jyoti, to whom nandkishore reports, he suggeted he will be able to give the solution. Trusting the same, he offered me to give an immediate discount for the mistake Airtel had committed in not paying me back my 500 rs., he offered 200 rs discount immediately and 100 each for 3 months which follow. Not satisfied with the solution as i did not trust AIRTEL, i agreed as he was an aquaintance. With the problem with the other number, he told me he will take around 4-5 days to revert, I agreed, and I waited. It has been 20 days and I have no response nor any communication. I paid the previous bills on both numbers, as directed, and as 88..226... was on dispute I reduced the amount which was on discount and paid, but accidentally i miscalculated and still paid more, The disputed amount was 602, and what I did not pay was 457 or so, as it was disputed. I was getting conactant calls from Airtel on the number from gurgaon and I told them thats its in dispute and I am still awaiting a response.

Yesterday I recieved my Bill intimation on my cell, which said that my bill is 544. Now when I felt it was more as the calling i did did not exceed 390, i called them up for clarification. I realise that I have recieved 135 rs as discount, which comes with the freedom 249 plan and still did not get the discount of rs 100 which was promised to me. When I asked them as why did I not get it, they say, there is still no mention of the deposit amount paid. Why? When I gave you all details and still there is no update, do i have to fight everymonth now to get my own money. When i asked him in what section was the 200 rs dicount given last time, he said that it was for custmer loyalty and to oblige me but is no where mentioned that it was for the return of the 500 rs I paid in security deposit. lodged a new complaint no 37150970 with my shazad alam. (I have a recording of the conversation, if you wish, i can send it across to you, and it is a customer call where the customer care wasted 1 hr and still no solution)

I really do not know how the organisation is run and what filthy customer cheating practices you might follow, I am tired, agonised and over with facing such trauma with Airtel. I want that my 500 rs that i paid in the initial, be refunded to me Immediately, I am not willing for a month to month adjustment.

With my another number 88..226..., I am still to get a revert, and no details have been given till now. I am not going to pay the charges for a service I have not used. The reversal of Rs 602 has still not happened, after repeated reminders, Visiting your ofiices, showrooms, wasting my precious time, wasting fuel, causing mental stress...and the list of damage is endless.

Kindly do not send me auto generated mails, I want people to write mails readin everything. There is a chain of trailing mails, and I guess there would be someone in the airtel who would care for the company, and not like to run away from responsibilities(like all I have met till now), and hence will read it all and can solve.

Rgds,

Serene Samuel
88..266...

Connection Booking Date: 21.04.2011
Connection Given Date : 28.04.2011

I have been given Airtel DTH connection with recorder on 28.04.2011 after very painful/agonising experience from your organisation. The installation was promised on 22.01.2011 and after vigorous followup by me it was at last installed on 28.04.2011.
After the installation to my surprise I am finding that the transmission is of very very poor quality. The channels are very blurred and is worst than local Cable operators distribution signal. The installation person has informed that the transmission quality will be of what I am getting. If this is the case then what is the use of taking DTH connection from your company. All other operators are giving very much better quality as is seen by me with my neighbors in my apartments who are using Tata Sky, Dish TV,Big TV. Some of the channels to name a few like NTV, ABN,NICK,SVBC,Gemini News, Gemini Movies, Subhavarta and many of other channels are not shown and these channels are getting stucked up and the set top box does not respond to any channels after this. Again and again the Set top box is to be restarted by switching off the power to the box.
I am also not given HD Cable along with the set and the installation person has informed that it is not available with him and after receiving the same he will be providing it. The Set top box being a HD equipment, I am amused that the pre requisite of supplying of HDMI Cable in order to watch HD channels is not met and what is the fun of having taken a HD Recorder, which only your company has to understand/explain. As promised while booking the connection, the HDMI Channels have not been activated and the message that the channels are blocked message is coming if we try to view the HD Channels.
I request you to immediately rectify these errors of transmission and see to it that the quality which is expected of a DTH TV is made available to me. If for any reason you are not able to maintain or provide me the quality of DTH transmission as being advertised by your company through various modes and is not up to the industry standards I think I have every right to return the connection and take the full refund from you for not being able to give the required quality of service.
Hope you will resolve the issue on top priority today itself.

Tel No [protected]

I am airtel customer from last year. I am R.K.Choudhary from Jharkhand,my mob. no. is [protected]. The problem is that from the two months ago my mobile balance is deducting regularly even i have not activated anything.sometimes it deduct Rs30,sometimes Rs20,sometimes Rs10.........and sometime in made negative balance........... and so on. And now generaly it deducts Rs30 without providing me any information.I have complained about it in the call center but no any steps have been taken.Even then I called to the customer care and he also not received any call and if received,then cut my call latter.Is this a method to treat any customer????? this is not good.so please see to this problem and take some steps.if this problem would not get solved in few days then i'll leave this sim and would start using another.And one more thing return my all money back.Almost Rs100 has been deducted from my mobile balance.It is very shameful..

so please see to this..
