Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I had airtel postpaid connection which was commited to get start in 4 Hrs but started after 3 days,later outgoing calls were stopped due to non availability of ANNEXURE -E. I submitted the same to retail outlet from where i got the connection & they told me outgoing will resume in 2 hrs but today after 6 days outgoing is still blocked by them.The reason given by customer care is insufficient documents.i.e they have not uploaded my documents.Mr.Vijendra (owner of retail outlet) is not picking my phone nor his boss Mr.Ashish & even their Nodal Officer Mr.sandeep.They are neither disconnecting my connection Nor resuming my outgoing.Please Help...

Hello,

I have ported my number to airtel from idea. I am unable to activate my 3G. Whenever i send SMS 3G to 121 they reply me that "We are unable to process your request!Please try again later. " Also I am unable to get LIVE settings. I tried sending SMS to to 54321 but still unable to get setting.

Also i am unable to connect to customer care executives.

Thanx,

Hi,

I have applied for Broadband connection last week through calling [protected]. This guy was not picking my call I had been trying for 2 days and then I called him in another number and he took the phone and told me that he was talking to other customers so thats why he did not picked my call. Then got a message from Airtel saying that I will get the connection within 3 days however I did not get.

Today morning I called him and he told that he will give me the update in one hours time but he did not called, so I called him @ 1 Pm and he was talking very rude to me saying that I thought of helping you to get the connection now let us see how will you get the connection.

I'm going to file a Case against Airtel for doing this.

I called up the customer care and he informed me that it will take time and he cannot assure me that when this will happen.

I need to get an update by EOD today otherwise Monday first thing I will file a case.

Thanks,

I obtained an AIRTEL Pre-paid connection (Mobile No.[protected]) in 1st week of Feb'2011. On receipt, i recharged my account to get validity & talk time. However, from 2nd day onwards my outgoing facility is blocked. I tried to solve the issue through local AIRTEL service provider but failed. Thus, on 16/02/2011 I called AIRTEL customer call over phone and booked a complaint. My AIRTEL req. ref. no. is "COGCL[protected]". Till date my outgoing connection is blocked.
Kindly help.

I had a Airtel postpaid mobile connection [protected] that belongs to Assam circle and was in roaming in Mumbai, Maharashtra circle from 27/03/2011 and stopped working since 03/03/2011. Inspite of giving repeated complaints at both 121 and Airtel relationship centers the problem has not been resolved yet. I had even written a mail to nodal officer at: nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in but he/she did not even bother to reply.

Therefore I wish to terminate my connection and seek compensation for loss of business and harassment.

When I recharge my mobile, automaticaly Rs. 30 have been deducted from balance during the last 4 - 5 months.
I talk several times to the customer care executive, but unfortunately some service packs yet to deactivate.

so please look into this mater at the earliest for the deactivation of all the unwanted service packs.

thanks and regards.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a airtel connection with number - [protected].

I went to New Delhi on 17.01.2011 from West Bengal near about 1.00 PM and after 4.00 PM outgoing calls are stopped from my number. then after reaching new delhi i complained to customer care (121) for this problem on 18.01.2011 near about 5.00 PM (complain no - [protected]) but they couldn't help me, then i called to Nodal Officer ([protected]) on 18.01.2011 near about 5.30 PM and they told me for waiting upto 20.01.2011 at 6.00 PM. On 20.01.2011, i received call from nodal officer on 20.01.2011 but they couldn't solve my problem and told me for wait. From 26.01.2011 my Incoming call is also stopped and due to this i have faced many many problems from 17.01.2011 to 05.02.2011.

On 03.02.2011 i came back to West Bengal but my number still not working so i again complain to nodal officer ([protected]) with complain no.[protected] but he is also told me for wait some time.

finally i have to recharge again the lifetime power for reactive of my service on 05.02.2011.

for this problem i was mentally harassed and also used to contact with any person through Public Telephone.

Now i am fully decide to complain at Consumer Court for a reasonable compensation for all that problem.

so please do the needful as earliest.

Thanking you.

Hi, I am an Airtel customer for 2 years. My no is [protected]. But I was sick of the service and decided to change to BSNL using MNP. I gave request to bsnl on 4/3/2011 by filling out a form. They processed the request and after that I got a call from Airtel offering some new plans but I rejected it and confirmed my change. But strangely, I got a message from BSNL stating that the port in request was rejected by airtel due to UPC (Unique Porting Code) Mismatch. Today (10/3/2011) I went to the bsnl office and checked the code they had entered and it was correct and valid. They said Airtel might have done fraud. So I contacted the senior officers but they said, first I have to disconnect from airtel. Then only they can do something. So I tried to contact the customer care. But for months I have been blocked from the customer care.(Its their policy against customers who complain). So I was unable to contact them. I got the number of Airtel nodal officer in kerala from TRAI site and called it. It played a sweet music and nobody answered. Same was with the Appellate authority. What can I do? How can I give myself a complaint to TRAI? If any of you Airtel people are reading this, please note this. I am studying in a college with 2000 students. And you are going to lose a lot of customers...

My mobile number-[protected]

I have received an sms from airtel saying "Thanks for downloading MCPACK from Airtel. You have been charged Rs 99. Get latest games at http://gclub.in/ea"
I never download anything from airtel provider before this..I want my money back since rs 99 is a lot of money..pls return my money back..

Thank you..

Dear sir , i m working with consumer care i'll try to customer care sine last 3 week but my call is not connected to customer care people plaese contact us my no is [protected] kindly resolve the problem otherwise i really stick aganist action your sector.

My trouble started once I bought the Sony LCD.

First the sales person at Big Bazaar, Cosmos didn’t mention on the additional Rs 1000. Opps!!! Why should they highlight that the product is costing Rs 1000 more? Now when we have to shell out Rs 1000, don't know why is it called free. You don't buy a HD box to put it your showcase. Don’t know who to blame here: Sony or Airtel. But sure, none would like to touch that topic.

Then the sales man promised (do these sales person know the meaning of the word: Promise) that the HD box will be delivered along with the LCD. I didn’t get it and I was not surprised considering the previous experience of Rs 1000. Now the delivery person said that the Sony personal would be delivering the Airtel HD. Now the Sony personal (mob [protected]) asked me to contact Airtel to get it.

Now stuck with Airtel. I have browsed through the site to get the voucher online, but no use. Tried the toll free no: 12148, same result. They said they will call back within 10 minutes. 10 hours past…still waiting. This is despite the fact that I am a Airtel post paid customer for the last 6 years!!!!!

BTW the Sony website says: ‘Sony shall not be held responsible for Coupon activation issues or related services, all disputes have to be directly handled with the Digital TV service provider.’ Good Prediction!!!

Requesting all to avoid this offer as it would create big headache running from pole to pole.

Thanks

I have been trying to call to Airtel customer care but they are not picking phone and some time 121 no does not work and facing the problem...Once a call connected to customer executive then I explained my problem then she told me to wait some time, having hold 30 minutes despite call has been disconected and now I have been trying to customer care....
Now Bharti Airtel is not providing service properly.... now time has come to change....

I purchased Airtel DishT V connection on dated 21 Feb under the exchange offer ,Offered by one of a distributor named : Saini Electronics but he sent a guy for the installation of the same but didnt provide any bill for the amt taken rs 1000/- for installation,now the connection is not working ,i also made complaind to the customer care,they are also just giving the fake communications for the visit but no one visiting to check it,plz get it check done otherwise i will go to consumer court for the further action...

Hi,

Am using airtel prepaid no: [protected] for the past 3 years.

But still now am receiving more than 60-70 sms per day from Airtel.

I made complaint to Airtel Customer Care, Nodel Officer and wrote a mail to [protected]@barthi.in.

But none of them are taking care about my complaint.

Really Airtel customer care is not taking care about the customers.

Subject: Complaint on Broadband services and staff at airtel - Land line number [protected]

Hi ,

I have got airtel broadband connection for past 2months ,landline
number [protected] .
I am shocked and surprise of the broadband services provided by airtel
with frequent disconnection of broadband and landline signal form the
day one to till date i got this connection .

I have registered various complaints from the day i got this
connection.This was fixed temporarily for that time.
During the past few days i have logged many complaints almost every
day but till today no service engineer visited my home neither anyone
bothered to call me and find if my issue is resolved or still
persists.
I am sure if any lapse in payment from a customer is found by you
,service provider will suck the blood of the customer till he pay back
the outstanding.I want to question you ,is this not the
responsibility of service provider to see what is the latest status of
the customer after the complaint logged?
I am surprised to see this kind of service from one of the leading
service provider in India to have this kind of miserable staff with
them that too in city like Bangalore IT HUB,i am afraid what would be
the kind of service in district/town /village?

This issue is not fixed till date.
I have done few escalations also and requested to restore the services.
I am incurring a huge loss in by business day to day because of this issue.

Please take my request to escalate against the culprits of the staff
responsible for this inconvenience caused to me and see that is issue
is fixed ASAP.

And also wave off my rental paid till date .

I might have to publish/proceed this issue in every legal manner, if i
am not finding a appropriate response from airtel on the issue.


Best Regards,
Nayeem.
