Address: Mumbai City, Maharashtra

I had raised a complaint on 21st Feb 2011 to Airtel via phone on thei number 121 which is chargeable. I spoke to an advisor Surendra who I thought took my complaint of connection issues. My modem was behaving weird, it used to take 15 mins for the connnectivity to happen on my PC once I used to switch on the modem. There was no revert from Airtel till 28th Feb 2011 post which I called up 121 again. This time, the engineer came to my place. Once I explained the issue to him, he was quick to gauge the issue. He quickly changed the adaptor and the connection happened in seconds which was the normal thing.

Post which, my bill for Feb 2011 was generated. I was shocked to see a bill of Rs. 2611/- which has never been the case. My bill has never gone beyond Rs 880/- in he past 2 years since I have registered with Airtel.

I raised a complaint with Airtel about this on 28th Feb 2011. It took almost 5 days for the first revert. Every revert that I have exceeded my usage and I need to pay my bill.

I replied to my mail on many occasions and tried explaining that the usage has exceeded due to the faulty adaptor. Only 3 people use the internet at my place, my sister who uses for reading the news article and my brother uses the same in the night and I use the internet on weekends.

On not getting a proper response from the 1st line, I escalated the issue to the Nodal office via phone on 16th March 2011. Here again, it took them 5-6 days to revert to me. Vijayalaxshmi was coordinating with me from the Nodal office.

The bill for March 2011 has been generated. The amount now is 1053/-. Note that my billing cycle is from 26th of each month to 25th of the next month. My issue existed since Feb 2011 and it got resolved on 28th Feb 2011.

I am looking for a proper resolution. Note that I have already made a payment of Rs. 880/- for the Feb 2011.

To add to this, I have been receiving calls from the Airtel dept to make my outstanding payment when my complaint is still open.

Waiting for an appropriate response...

    Dear Sir / Madam,

    I had availed the services of Airtel Broadband for my internet connection, Customer ID: [protected], for the period February 2010 to July 2010, at my rented apartment in Kothrud, Pune, which was a prepaid connection and total payment was done in advance, Rs.2500=00.

    Later, in August 2010, we had shifted to Warje, Pune, where Airtel din't had any connection(this is what the reply was provided by Customer Care when asked for transfer of connection), hence had asked the ISP to dicontinue the services.

    Thereafter no action of discontinuing the link was done and we had received many phone calls from Airtel Customer Care to pay some outstanding bills for the services which were not at all availed.

    We had been Airtel Mobile customers from last 4 years and have 3 connections and there had been no case where the payment have been defaulted or even delayed.

    This is the last request to Airtel Customer Care Executives to stop harassing the Customers which have been loyal and not defaulted ever.

    Regards,
    Gautam Lapsiya

    I am getting sms' from the company asking me to pay an outstanding amount. request the Airtel Executives to check if any calls have been made since February 2010 from Airtel Fixed Landline for Account Number 15557313.
    This is becuase we never wanted an landline facility, we have requested Airtel engineers to pick up the Telephone set from our place but there was no action taken on this and now we are being constantly chased for the amount for the services never utilised.
    I can be contacted at the number [protected]
    Dear Airtel,

    As per conversation, it was conveyed that the telephone connection was auto-renewed and hence the bill has been the rental that needs to be paid.
    I would like comment that, the auto renewal was not conveyed to me.
    The whole case seems to be a fraudulent activity to gain meagre Rs. 1995=00 for an unused service.
    Please take this into consideration that the services were NOT AVAILED and even the renewal was NOT NOTIFIED.
    Kindly resolve the issue.
    Please contact me at [protected].

    Dear Airtel Customer Care,

    I am still receving messages from Airtel that my Airtel Landline bill is due Rs.2199.
    Account Number 15557313
    Although I had intimidated that we had never used this number, refer above mail. I thought the matter was sorted, please look into the issue at prority.

    Gautam Lapsiya,

    Airtel Team,

    Even after loggin a complaint and clarifying with Service Provider that there was no usage of said Landline connection, the company has came from its level. Also above response from Mr. Rakesh Ranjan clearly specifies that the problem has been resolved, which means there is no due on me for Airtel.
    Yesterday there was a call at 2:50 PM from a so called Advocate Mr. Abhishek Gupta([protected]) from Delhi informing that a case under section 420 was registered in my name in Delhi High Court. He asked me to pay the bill of Rs.2199=00 in 1 hour else he will forward the file to Magistrate, once that is done I will have to attend the court proceedings in Delhi on Monday 31st Oct 2011 with a fine of Rs.22, 000=00. Also I will have to bring 2 bails (jamanati) of Rs.8000=00 each.
    Since currently I'm undergoing financial as well as mental turnmoil due to my mother's serious illness I decided to pay the amount to avoid any tension and left in search of Airtel Relationship Centre. At 5:30 I reached the ARC to pay the bill all I found was closed shop. This I intimidated to Mr Gupta, then he asked me that it was OK if I pay the bill next day by 12:00 PM.
    There are many flaws in Company behaviour:
    1. I have not cheated still a case under section 420 is applied on me (infact its the Company that is fraudulently trying to get money from my pocket).
    2. I don't understand that 10 times fine has to be paid for any such cases (this seems to be frightening technic so that customer agrees to pay the small amount).
    3. If it was OK to pay the bill by 12 PM of 29th Oct. 2011 why the person tried to harrass me mentally that it has to be paid on that day itself.

    I would like bring the attention of government towards company's such harrasments in cases where consumers are not defaulters of any bill payment and are innocent.

      Service provider AIRTEL is continuously deducting Rs 25 daily from my Prepaid account for last 6 days despite complaining to Customer care.

      I would like AIRTEL to stop this deduction and CREDIT the excess amount into my Pre paid account.

      Thanks

      Dear Rakesh,

      Thank you for your reply. But I ought to inform you that despite Customer Care's ( 121, 198 & 999)
      assurances, my account is being continuously debited by Rs 25 on a daily basis. Now the balance
      is only Rs 7.

      Thank God ! mine is a pre-paid account. You can imagine if it were a post paid account, AIRTEL would have kept billing me endlessly.

      Dear Rakesh,

      Thank you for your prompt reply. Can you please advise how long it may take to resolve the issue.

      You will have noted from my call Log, debits towards ACTUAL usage of prepaid connection should be a mere fraction of what I have been erroneously charged.

      Awaiting good news from you informing me that the problem has been resolved.

      Dear Rakesh,

      I am still awaiting resolution of my problem of wrongful debit of Rs 25 from my prepaid account[protected] since 21-Mar-2011.

      Pls expedite and ensure that the excess amount is credited back so that I can regain confidence in
      resuming further use of the AIRTEL connection.

          Address: Ahmedabad, Gujarat

          Hi All,

          I am using airtel mobile office services since two months I am paying Rs.98/- every month for 2GB data ussage. Yestarday I called to customer care for connectivity issue @ 121 as I need to reconnect the connection every 15 minutes to use MO serivce in my mobile Nokia 5233.

          CCR take some times to check the all things and said every thing is correct they provide me another MO settings. After that I come to know that now I have been charge for using MO. I checked my data ussage by dailing *#123*10# it shows I have 2760 MB left in my account and the validity till 05th April 11.

          Again I called @ 121 and asked them about this problem they told me that I am ussing airtel live but in my phone connection showing Mobile Office. I told them Airtel networks giving airtel live service in mobile office isn't it? They agree that there is some network problem and ready to give refund Rs. 8 which is diducted from my main account within 4hrs. and as of yet I didn't received any refund from Airtel. CCR told me if the same problem will happen again then I need to call from different number so they will solve my problem on call and I said ok.

          Again the same problem is happen again so I called again now CCR says again that I have been charged for airtel live service. He did all the necessary steps for this situation like reset all the settings and ask me several times to switch off and reinsert sim then the problem will be solve. For these all conversation I spent Rs.40 but still my problem was not solved. So I diceded to go nearest Airtel branch and the branch people said that I have been charged for airtel live I told them that airtel live settings are not in my phone CCR already removed they check my phone and checked and said now you will not charged for Mobile office I check in front of them again but still the deduction was continuing from my main account balance now the branch people also unable to find out how to resolve this issue and they start to give me silly reason they said you need to go through Google search engine only then you will not be charged. But this statement was unacceptable for me I told them Madam I am ussing Mobile Office since last two month and I never gone through like this way MO service means you can browse or download anything within given data size limits but they are not ready to listen me and start behaving very rude.

          At this time I was completely disappointed due to their behavior and unprofessionalism. I decided to give their complaint HOD I asked her name but she was not ready to give her name also. Now my number also has been barred I am unable to call even 198 or 121 Can't understand to whom should I contact.

          Now every 15 - 20 sec. I have been charged 30p I had waste Rs. 40 to talk with CCR and till evening 8pm Rs. 48 diduction made from my main account. I spent total Rs. 88/- and still my problem not solved.

          My personal suggestion is Airtel should close thier local branch of Bapunagar, Ahmedabad,Gujarat or needs to change the staff. I found the branch people are embarrassing the company.

                I am Fully Agree with Bideshi Samantray Comments.

                Airtel is Too Much Bad, Poor, Fraud, Liar, Unfaithful, Unbelievable, cheater & 3rd Class Mobile Service Provider.
                I also very much agree with Bideshi Samantray comments.
                I am Shalini from chennai.I tried for airtel customer care and i posted my complaint regarding sms booster pack activation but they didt solve my complaint.They told me to wait on the for the moment and then they disconnect my customer care line.Then later for 1 hour i tried for customer care i didt get any response.They cutted my line to customer care.

                Airtel is very very very very bad.Their service is also very very bad.
                Now its a competitions market there are a lots of mobile operators they do provide better and very good service from air-tel.So i am informing my friends, relatives, neighbors, colleagues and the viewers not to buy airtel sim cards and don't waste your money.
                my no [protected], 198 customer care no not responce, i have mcheck problum, AIRTEL DOES NOT ACCEPT TRANSACTIONS FROM YOUR MOBILE this msg willcome.pls check and clear the problum,
                It has been observed that everday Rs. 1/- has be deducted from my talktime recharge towards cricket alert, which was not instructed by me any time. I have already instructed to Airtel Complaint No. 198 for the same.

                I am sorry to inform you that no action has been taken from your side, it will force me to discontinue Airtel Services.

                Please look into the matter and do needful urgenlty.

                  Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

                  Dear Sir/Madam

                  I refer to the complaint no: 44496826, Landline no:[protected]

                  I wish to inform you that i am quite upset with your customer support and a "clueless & incompetent" technical team. Below is the narration of reasons as to why i am forced to describe airtel technical team as one.

                  I called your customer care on 24th morning regarding "internet not working". they told me that they will be sending an engineer and nobody turned out on 24th. I had to call again on 24th evening to "remind" your customer care. they gave me a commitment that an engineer will be prvoided for rectifying the problem and that he will come to my house in the morning.

                  Based on the commitment by your customer care, i laid off few important appointments for the sake of attending your field engineer during his visit. The engineer came to my house @ 1.30pm and to my surprise he literally came empty handed, ie without any tools or even a standby modem. To my surprise he did not even have a RJ45 patch cable to test. The engineer came and did some revamping of the modem through router page and it wasn't sucessful. He then said that he would come back after some time talking to his senior and left my home around 2.30. I waited for him to come back and indeed he did come back @ 4.30 again empty handed. I asked him if it was a router/modem problem and he said it could possibly be that only and tried to leave. I stopped him and asked him to install a stand-by modem and he said, his agency does not have any standby modem currently and that he would get it by 25th morning and do the installation (i am skipping the number of commitments made by the engineer on providing a stand by modem, since that would only make this mail lengthy without addressing the issue.) Please be informed that i am not making any complaints against the Field engineer Mr.lokesh who came to my house for rectifying the problem, as he tried his level best and he was competent enough to handle config problems. But the agency for which he works is just "crap"and that you must take the onus of appointing such crappy people as your support agents.

                  on 25th afternoon he came back with a standby modem (Beetle 110X) which i suppose could have been picked up from trash bin as it looked just like a piece of garbage with so much of dust and scratches) He did all the things that he could do and to his best of his knowledge. But everything failed. I provided him with my laptop, just to check if the LAN port on my desktop had some problem. But the modem did not work on my laptop too. He then tried to connect it with a wi-fi router but that again failed. He went back saying that "thats all he could do" and that he will contact airtel official to test the MUX and Port end.

                  Right from that time, you guys are trying to figure out where exactly is the problem, but till now neither your technical team nor your customer support has been able to give me a solution. I have spoken to around 10 customer care officers and to Ms.Priyardarshini of the escalation team and to Mr.Amrut, who introduced himself as priyadarshini's boss.

                  Please be informed that i am sick and tired of calling your customer care and repeatedly repeating my name, telephone number, nature of complaint and the long hours that they put me on hold to get back to my query.

                  I wish to inform you that i have been with airtel for the last 8 years and that i am a gold subscriber. Good to note that you have given me such a position. But the sad part is that you have completely lost my trust of being a good service provider and a technically competent team of people. Sad that the SLA that you offer has gone for a complete toss and it doesn't bring anymore value to the customer, when not implemented and adhered to. Its even more disgusting to note that your technical team is totally clueless on the problem. It only goes on to say that you have lost valuable people to the competition and that they have grown stronger by offering me a new broadband connection with the same kind of SLA and money back guarantee with free live demo and Zero Entry Cost.

                  i have been a staunch supporter of airtel and an ardent blogger for a long time. I write reviews read by millions of people and have written so good about airtel (http://www.mouthshut.com/review/Choosing-a-DSL-Provider-slpnppltt) when i truly enjoyed its services in the past

                  But now, having understood how much airtel has changed from being a value service provider to "just another" service provider is quite hard to digest. I may not want to have business transaction with "just another" service provider and such incompetent technical team.

                  This is my last request to resolve my issue and i am "Pleased" and generous enough to provide you time till 5pm tomorrow[protected]Sunday). I know its a sunday, but this will prove if you are really a customer's company and truly regret for having "jailed" me inside my house awaiting resolution.

                  Failing to comply with my final request to resolve the problem, you may receive a disconnection letter for all my airtel services which includes my 5 airtel mobiles, 1 airtel DSL and Landline connection and 2 airtel DTH services, by 11.30 am on[protected].

                    Airtel — outgoing calls barred without informing

                    I had taken two new airtel postapid connections and it was activated imediately in the month of febuary 2010. After few days both the numbers was barred from outgoing calls and it was not informed to me. When i raised a complaint with the customer care, they were not ready to take complaint. they accepted that they do not have any proof that they had informed to me before barring the outgoing calls. It was like 10 days i was not able to make outgoing calls. They also misguided me to submit all the documents in any of the airtel outlet. when i went their with all the documents they told i had to submit the documents to the same executive whome i took the connection as it was an corperate connection.

                    i asked the airtell not to bill for the barred period but it was and I had to pay the bill for the barred period as well.
                    My airtel sim was barred, outgoing call is not going, my account balance is 20 RS.
                    WHAT CAN I DO?
                    GIVE ME A SOLUTION.

                    Airtel — suddenly outgoing calls were discontinued

                    I have done the MNP from BSNL to Airtel[protected] around 6 months ago. Incoming/Outgoing calls were working well untill yesterday night. Suddenly my outgoing calls were discontinued. Whatever the number i try to call it goes to 121 customer support, also the customer support representative. They were telling that my outgoin were discontinued due to the security verification failed. If i call by my mobile either me or the customer support representative couldn't hear the voice. Howcome past 6 months nothing happened and suddenly they discontinued my outgoing call telling the security reason?. Even airtel didn't try to call me for verification. They do call me only for marketing purpose.

                      Address: Dibrugarh, Assam

                      I have a digital TV HD connection ([protected]). I opted for the two new HD channel offered by Airtel i.e. Discovery HD (Ch-338) and movies now HD (Ch-198).

                      The costomer care told me that I shall have to migrate to a new Satellite and so the alignment of the dish has to be changed. After almost one week and repeated requests, instead of sending anyone to change the alignment, they have now promptly migrated my connection to second satellite and no channel is now available now. Its been 2 days since they have been giving false assurances.

                      The local airtel care centre is demaning money for this migration. Why should the customer suffer (RS 200) for the decision of the company to change the satellite??

                      This is absolute cheating by Airtel to deny the customer of the services and charge them for it.

                        Dear Sir;

                        My mobile no.is [protected].

                        My complaint is related to curtailment of balance without using any services. While, I have contacted on AIRTEL complaint centre no.198 on dated 05.03.2011 which request ref. no. CBDCK[protected]. But, no action has been taken and each day @ Rs. 1/- to Rs. 5/- is being curtailed from mobile without using any value added services. One point is also noticed that after doing complaint, when I have tried to recomplaint through their complaint service no.198, no one has picked up the call in customer care centre. I have also complained through mail on 11.03.2011 and 16.03.2011, but no action has been taken.

                        When I have tried again to contact on customer complaint service no.198 of AIRTEL on dated 25.03.2011, a customer care person has picked up the call. When I have told about confirmation for request reference no. CBDCK[protected], he has cut my call without any hesitation. After that again, I have tried to contact in customer care, but noany reply got from customer care and has been disconnected my call.

                        I am also attaching my mail correspondence with AIRTEL as follows which is self explanatory:-

                        Dear sir;

                        I am abserving that from last 7-8 days, a sum of Rs. 3/- is deducted from my prepaid mobile no.[protected]. While, I have called on complaint no.198 and told to look into the matter. But, no action has been taken to stop the service. Later, I have gone to customer care office. Customer officer has stopped the service and told me that no any deduction will be made from next time. But, today, again, it is observed that Rs.3/- is deducted from my balance. May I know why?

                        Please look into the matter and confirm it. If any service is started on this no., please stop it.

                        Thanking you

                        Refer to my mail dated 11.03.2011 regarding curtailment of balance from my prepaid mobile no.[protected], till today no any action has been taken. While your sent is showing to take action shortly. You should aware that 5 days already has gone, but no action has been taken by you.

                        I want to clarify also that when I am going to write the massage STOP and sending to 1210 or 121, I am just getting the massage i.e. Your request to stop service has been received, we shall get back to you in a few minutes with the option. Dial 57875(Toll free) and set your favorite song as hello tune.

                        After some time, again, I am getting massage i.e.

                        The following services are active on your mobile:
                        To reply type the serial number of the service that you with to STOP
                        1. Cricket Score Pack

                        After this again I am going to type the serial number of the service with STOP.

                        After that, Again, I am getting massage from you i.e. DND is deregistered. Please contact on 1909.

                        When I am contacting on 1909, DND is deregistered.

                        I want to say also that no any service is active on my mobile no.[protected].

                        Please clarify why my balance is curtailing without the use of call.

                        Please resolve it within 2 to 3 days, otherwise it will compell to take action against AIRTEL. It is very bad thing that you are cutting my balance Rs. 3.00 per day without use of any service.

                        Please look into the matter and resolve it as soon as.

                        Thanking you

                          Hi,

                          I had purchased the airtel 3g card from Tell connect, Sarojini street,T.nagar, Chennai 17 on 11-Feb-2011. It was earlier very slow with speed ranging around 24kbps. My connection number: [protected])

                          Atleast it was working for a few days, then we had a number of issues using the connection.

                          Please find the details below:

                          1. We were asked to recharge the sim which was perfomed, and after a number of repeated calls to the customer care, at last they are saying that the connection is active. We never got a responsible answer from any of the customer care representatives.

                          2. Currently we got a message saying that the account cannot be activated since there is more than 50 GB available in the card. No surprises that there is so much still in available since the card was not working for most of the time and thanks to the irresponsible customer care representatives, the issues are also not getting solved.

                          Every time i call customer care at[protected] they give me a standard list of activities that needs to be executed like reinstalling the software, checking the settings, etc and when they run out of options, they hang up on me.

                          I hope you do have track of the complaints I had raised earlier in this regard. Every time I call, each representative puts me on hold and i think is trying to tire me out of calling them, and when i ask a qn and they dont have an answer, THEY JUST HANG UP.

                          I would like either my connection issues to be solved or a refund of the amount I have paid till date and end of this useless service I had bought and am regretting till date.

                            I purchased a Beetel qwerty dual sim mobile phone from you with a free offer of Airtel DTH. Upon receiving the said mobile I was instructed to contact the Airtel customer care to get the DTH system istalled at my home on payment of Rs825. But on dialing to the said airtel officials, the call was either not heard or they told me some other phone numbers to contact which were vague numbers as there was no response from those numbers.Now after a month or more I have realised that I have been cheated by the HOMESHOP 18 officials as well as the AIRTEL DTH officials. Shortly I will be apprachin g the counsumer court for redressal of my complaint and seeking the compensation for monetary loss and mental disturbance.

                              I am Kamesh, from Chennai my customer ID is [protected] i have two settop box connection under this Customer ID. Due to frequent signal problems i opted for disconnection of my second setop box connection and had contacted customer service and my second settop connection was disconnected on 7the March'11 but the daily rental being deducted from my balance was still not changed it included my second settop box also. Despite complaining several times about this to customer care service the problem was not solved. and my balance was reduced double the amount daily for just using single settop box. I feel very displeased with Airtel DTH service.

                              If they validity period is about to end they will not forget to call or msg reminding me do recharge but a proper grievance they will not respond.

                              I feel ashame to use Airtel DTH Service this will even raise doubts to useing Airtel mobile connection also.

                                I would like to caution & get help from consumer forum on a call I received from [protected] on my airtel mobile number saying that I have won a lottery of 15.25 lakhs on my airtel sim number. The person calling mentioned that he was calling from Mumbai on behalf of Airtel & he could have the cheques delivered at home at 1800hrs today or I could have it collected from my nearest branch of SBI. The person calling also said that your voice is being recorded & I would need to disclose my pehchanpatr number. Also that the recording would be played in Sahara One channel at 2100hrs tonight. The pre-condition before which cheque details would be disclosed was to remit a sum of Rs.5,500/- to their account. Suspicious of this, I immediately checked the area code +9230 on the web & found out that this call was originating from Pakistan whereas the person calling mentioned that he was calling from Mumbai. I feel this a new method devised for money laundering by anti social elements & request that a thorough investigation be carried out on the above mentioned number & if possible nab such fraudsters at the earliest. I mean how could they get hold of my sim number which was exactly the same number he had quoted! Now, I am even more of the opinion that somebody from Airtel is hand in glove & compromising their customer numbers/details... Waiting for a response...

                                Dear friends,

                                I rcvd a call today i.e. 22nd july at 11.17 a.m. from[protected], the person identified himself as vinod sharma from delhi. He repeated the same story of my no. getting selected and winning Rs. 25 lakhs.I was asked to contact a person at another no. which he said belonged to the chief customer care officer at Airtel Mr. Rawat from mumbai. The no. was [protected] and all the time This man kept repeating the same thing. He asked for my ration card no. and account no. I told him that I would report it to media since I am the winner of such a big amount .Also he mentioned that the name of the draw is KBC.He was all the time addressing me as mohtarma, which is an urdu word. I informed him that I would involve media and police into this. Inspite of this he kept on and on. I disconnected and found my balance was Rs. 150 less as compared to my available balance before the call.People at airtel, we request you to follow the case. It could be something big.
                                I also received a call from a similar number [protected] . I received numerous missed calls and finally when I called back I was told a similar tale of winning the airtel lottery. I was told to contact a computer generated number [protected] (MD Akash Verma) for further details. I suspected that this was a fraud and asked him what his mobile number was. Realising that his fraud has been caught he started using abusive language on which I disconnected the phone.
                                I just hope some disgruntled airtel employee is not involved in this. Concerned authorities please look into this

                                  sir
                                  airtel broadband and landline connection is providing very poor services. On repeated calling to customer care they are giving request no 44502660 against my landline no [protected] and saying again and again that a engineer visit has been scheduled but till now no technical person has ever visited to my home place. When i have requested to forward my call to their senior person they replied that they are busy and they will call back later on but never ever they have called their customer . when i am again calling they are putting me on hold for 25- 30 minutes . Till now airtel services are in a very poor condition.

                                  We are a Big Corporate in Faridabad and Using Airtel's Services for last 7 Years with more than 500 numbers.

                                  1. While all the desired document had submitted at the time of taking these connections also (7 years ago) for all our numbers. We again submitted these on demand of Airtel and it was recd. by collection agency on 27.11.2009. After two months (in Jan.10) Airtel is again demanding documents for the same. We requested the same executive of collection agency to collect the documents again but no one came. Now after two months numbers are barred. We treat it as mental harassment.

                                  2. Earlier we were informed that Auth. Signatory is not updated in Airtel's system and due to this, two other numbers got barred

                                  We have been using Airtel Services for last 7 Yrs. and at the time of booking all collection we provides documents. If documents are not with Airtel or not updated in the system, where we are responsible ? This is not the way that first barr the services then demand documents, why ???

                                  3. We want to let everyone know that The service level & response time we are getting through current system is not as good as we have been getting from our Customer Relation Ship Executives in the past. Only one man who was looking after our account was having a good working manner by which he was able to made us satisfied and now C.R.E. services are not being provided by Airtel due to which "Mr. Manoj Kohli (CEO), Mr. Dinesh Vaid (Sr. Manager) , Mr. Gaurav Sareen (Asstt. Manager), Ms. Meera Srivastava, SMEQFS, Corp. Help Desk, 121" this big team is working on hehalf of ONE MAN (C.R.E.) and problem are still not being solved on time.

                                  4. Our CUG Issue : 22 numbers have been identified for which CUG needs to be corrected, which was under the process for rectification since 4-5 months Today when recitification is done, It has created a new problem. Billing Error. Billing consolidation got totally disturbed.

                                  5. We have booked an FCT Connection on 16.01.2010 through a CSA who assured activation within 2-3 days. After 9 days we recd. a call from Airtel. The person who was calling told me that "Your Company / Address Verification is NEGATIVE). We are glad to see this service that after 9 days of booking connection, we are being informed that our company verification is negative where we are already using more than 500 connections for 7 Years.

                                  6. For all above disputes we requested Asstt. Manager (Customer Relations) to visit us, he does not have time to come, he does not have time to work, even he does not have time to talk to us. He comitted to visit us on 27.01.10 and we are still waiting for him. Since 27.01.10 I am trying him and at that time he was in a meeting (as he said) . And till now I am waiting for his call, May be he is still in a meeting. Even If I makes a call, he does not picks it up.

                                  We have send all aobve issues to Customer Care, many officers, appellate authority, Nodal Officers etc. etc.

                                  All above matter has also been sent to the Top Man of the company and also to CEO of the company. Airtel , The Leading Telecom Company of India. And I am still waiting for the response from Airtel but they even don't revert emails sent by us.

                                  So by Writing this, I just want to let everybody know that How a Leading Company is Providing Serivces to Its Corporate Customer.

                                    RECHARGE ISSUE
                                    I have Airtel sim from last 3 years which was procured at Mumbai ( Thane ) . Now I am at Kolkata. And I have recharged with Rs 100/- ( hundred rupees only ) and its Transaction ID is 41184683 dated 26.03.2011. But I have got only Rs 1/- ( one rupee only ) top up. So, if there is any changes in the TOP up rules Airtel has to inform their customers first. Without informing they have given only Rs 1/- against 100/-. I want my money back. And looking forward for the better service from Airtel.

                                      AirTel though it is advertising all over about 3G, it does not have 3G network in all towers. Their services is below average. Except for first one week, there as no time I saw "H" (HSPDA) on my mobile. It was always EDGE. The speed is so bad even streaming radio at 24kbps is buffered frequently.

                                      Now after one month of EDGE speed with 3G plan of Rs.450 per month for 600 MB. I got unbilled charges for data as Rs.10,000. After their discount the cost for me is Rs.5400/-. What the hell is this? The technical support person who visited to analyse the 3G speed problem acknowledge that 3G is not from all towers. But all through outer ring road I didn't get 3G speed (H).

                                      The billing problem for data usage is the second time in 3 years. Earlier also their technical team claimed they gave me 2.5 Mbps speed with their GPRS network !!

                                      The support and also the nodal officers are waste. They only send long canned responses for small information. Their network and billing are horrible. No wonder their stocks have fell down last 3 years.

                                      Airtel — Unfair billing and ineffective support from customer care

                                      mobile no [protected]

                                      For my billing period from september 12 to october 12 I used to get messages from 'Nazara ', daily, telling me that I am 'charged Rs 30 for some services which I have downloaded'.When I got this message, the first time itself I called customer care and complained that I haven`t done any downloads and I don`t want to get any message like this any more.The customer care executive told me that it won`t repeat anymore and they have deactivated something.But again it came and, I complained.After my third complaint the person who talked in regard of airtel told me that they can check it only when the bill comes.
                                      When the bill came I was additionaly charged Rs 650 as download charges.When I complained they told that I have transfered data!!!.After that they were ready to raise it as a complaint and I was told that I wilkl get a call back.I called customercare again after two days and I got the same reply.Now they have additionaly charged me Rs 100 in the next bill as late fee and when I called back they told me that they cant do anything about this and repeated that I have transfered the data.
                                      When I called customer care and asked to 'activate GPRS FOR RS 99 PLAN ' facility for me in the september october billing period they told me some procedures.Later I came to know that this was not for activating GPRS but for something else .I was charged seperately for browsing 30 ps /20 kb and another some 100 plus rs for some other net facility.Total charge for the billing period was 1604.Clearly this bill was due to the wrong informations provided by customer care and passive attitude towards my complaints
                                      Kindly help me on this unfair charges levied on me.

                                      Airtel — Ineffectiveness of customer service

                                      Hi,

                                      My name is Arul Silin Ninchal, I am with airtel service for more than six years, here the problem is ineffectiveness of customer service, my airtel number is [protected], from this number it is very hard to reach the customer service, so I tried from another number (i.e.) [protected], the representative transfers the call to his supervisor, I am waiting online for more than 45 minutes (1june2011 9.00am -9.45am), but no one turned back, once again I tried from my number it has been blocked.
                                      My complaint is that, on 24th of last month approximately they have taken around Rs.50 for data usage even though I had sufficient data balance, I called for refund and they assured for refund, but I didn’t received it, like wise on 31st of May they have charged 30 without my authentication, the representative assured me I will refund it, till no use, then I send port message to change the network then somebody contacted me and told me I will refund and gave some offers inorder to hold me. I had some questions to you
                                      1. Being a prestigious institution why they are behaving like this? (many of my friends having these complaints)
                                      2. Why it’s hard to reach customer service?
                                      3. Why they are making the customer to wait for such a long time? 45 minutes
                                      4. Why customer service ignoring the customers & irritating?
                                      5. How to claim the compensation for that?
                                      6. Will I get solution ?
                                      Thanking you with anticipation
                                      Ever sincerely

                                      My Name is Abhishek Gupta . I Got Airtel 3G Dongel activated on 19/05 /11 . My Sim no. is [protected]. I have opted for 2GB PLAN @750/- On using the services for 18days my connection was barred on 05/06 on inquiring I was told that bill amount is 30, 000 so unless i make the interim payment the connection can not be activated .On telling them the statistics which one can see while using the dongel it was showing usage of only 1.24GB but seems logics does not work in Big Companies like Airtel and I was told that I have to wait till the final bill is not generated ... Which means company has not allowed me to use 0.75 GBS which was balance in the plan .
                                      Now once I have received the bill there was another shock for me as the amount was showing 16, 000 even though the itemised bill which they have sent is showing the consumption lower than 2GB . I am in touch with their diffrent offices - Nodal, Appelete asking for reasoning of this sort of inflated bills and the discrepencie in the statistics which is being shown in Dongel ( Live usages ) and bill which is as high as 61% .
                                      I have again told to wait till few more days time untill someone got to attend the reasoning right . In between my dongel is useless for nearly 20 days and since it is post paid connection - I am paying for the rental without usages ..
                                      Will any senior officer from Airtel will take note of the same and resolve the issue and customer dissatisfaction ..
                                      I am residing at Vashali sector-1, Gaziabad and reachable on [protected]

                                      Take Care while using airtel 3G services.
                                      I got a plan for 200 Rs where 200 MB of data is free and after that 30p/20kb

                                      Unfortunately I over used it to 290 MB and I got around 1500 billed for the extra 90 MB.

                                      There is no alert that I have used my limit or there is no way to de-activate 3G if my limit is crossed .

                                      This is totally unfair on the service provider part even though I am aware of my plan .
                                      The should send the alert in any case if my limit is crossed .

                                      And the billing rate is also high in Airtel if the limit is cross (30p/20 sec) compare with Vodafone which gives plan better than airtel and if the limit is cross it is only 2p/10 sec.

                                      Hope Airtel notices this
                                      Airtel 3g Goa is miserable.
                                      Billing is screwed up big time.
                                      No response from customer care.
                                      They say they ll give you a call back in 4 hrs and nothin happens even after days.
                                      They register a complaint and give you the SR# and when you send an SMS to clarify ur SR status, you get a reply SMS "No records found".

                                      These people deserve their stocks going down. No more curses.
                                      God bless AIRTEL.

                                        Hi

                                        I had an idea no. [protected], I applied for MNP on 08-03-11 through a local airtel dealer i.e, Standard Communication, Laxminagar, near V3s Mall. The no. has been activated on 15-03-11 but deactivated on 22-03-11 without any prior notice. When I asked to the airtel customer care, they told me that they have not received my documents yet. Again I applied with the same docs on 23-03-11, and communicated with the distributorn of East Delhi and Airtel Centre, Laxminagar through phone and mails respectively, but all efforts went in vain. The no. has not been activated yet.

                                        I am facing a lot of problems as the no. is deactvated without prior notice. I am blocked to communicate with my important dealings.
