I would like to bring this issue to your notice.

I used Airtel Broadband services last year. There was serious problem in connection and I had raised several complaints. For personal reasons I had to leave out of town and I wasn’t using this service for 3 months, during this time without solving my problem in connection I have been sent bills after bill for all 2 to 3 months. When I was back to Bangalore I had raised another complaint with Airtel customer care that without usage bills have been raised and asked them to cancel my connection. They suggested to pay half the bill amount and would waive off another half bill on non usage. This was a fair deal and I paid Rs. 1813 during last June and closed the matter. 2 months ago Airtel executive came and collected the instrument and modem as part of connection closure. Now, I am getting threatening calls from Delhi from some advocate Mr. Alok Singh saying I am due to pay Rs1700 if not paid he will file a case at Delhi high court and these calls are flowing in continuously from the number [protected] and saying if I don’t pay that amount they shall accuse me and bring me to court.

I don’t understand does the high court judge has no other major matters to look at? is this the burning issue they want to solve.

When the customer care has given me a waiver why is someone calling and threatening!

He sternly clarifies saying once the connection is cut the customer care shall not be approached for details as they wont maintain any of these concerns raised and now the case is in their hands.

I am forced to ask - When the matter dealt with customer care has no value why at all have a customer care in place. They can have advocates and gundas deal with billing, broadband and all such matters right.

The behaviour from these people has been pathethic.

If this continues I shall have to complaint against Airtel broadband and the person calling to the local police station.

Airtel — bill not waived off

sir,

i lodged a complaint for repetitive activation of monthly rental schemes on my mobile no.[protected] without my knowledge. for d same reason i got a waiver of rs.100 on 5th july, 2009. my ref. no.[protected]
for this i called to cust. care twice but i never got my bill waived off n now my ref. no. is being stated invalid. M not billing to pay any amount as my bill is still under the waiving limit but m not gettin any waiver from your company . Please help.
i have a post paid no. sim from the company airtel
I would like to bring to your notice the following issues below:

Iam having billing issues since 3 to 4 months and inspite being continously filing the complaint, nothing has been done to resolve the issues.

Air tel services has been good in the past but now it has become worst day by day.
All of sudden they started sending the bills online and after many request they had put the password with my old phone number and due to that i had no access to my account, which i came to know later and that too i updated my new phone number there long time back. So i was unable to pay the bill ontime and always had to request for duplicate bills and everymonth they added late fees 75 rs for not providing me the access to my account. This i came to know later when i requested for the bills and also they never informed us that they are changing the mode of sending bills.

Later on again last month bill i havent received neither by post nor by email. When i made a request then i was informed that bill was sent and some woman named reena has received it.Well we dont have any lady with this name. Issue is that you people dont provide the bills and then keep on charging the late fee 75 rs from the custmors and i have filed so many complains everytime the excecutive ask me to pay the full amount and many time they drop the call as it happenedd yesterday and the name of ther person was Mr Krishna.

My question is if your delivery guys are not sincere enough to deliver the bills and then we make request for the bill, you should be paying for the bad service you are giving or you should take 75 rs every month for not sending us the bill.

My connection number is [protected], iam actually tired of making complains and if its not resolved the i would be rather better off the connection and then dont blame us later.

    I had an airtel broadband till Jan 2007. I paid the bill, and asked to close the account. After that I left the house. After that, till now I have no idea what went wrong.

    Now, in Jan 2011, I requested for a connection, and they asked me to pay 20,000 Rs bill. And threatening me to pay it. I had no idea about that usage, and also I have no proof now that I had closed the connection.

    I'm in terrible state of mind, please help me how can I handle this?

    Thanks

      Hi,

      My postpaid bill calculation is being wrongly calculated for the past one year, i observed it very lately.
      I have raised a complaint with airtel customer care, they have reverted for one month, i have clearly stated them to check for the calculations for the past one year, and they have been very lazy in doing so. If we consumers havnt noticed this kind miss calculations we might loose thousands of valuble hard earned money.

      i would request to look into this issue at a high importance.

      Thanks,
      Vijaya kumar Thorati.

          Dear Sir/Mam,

          BELOW IS WHAT MY COMPLAINT WAS TO AIRTEL WHICH WAS LOGGED ON 09/01/2011 AND ALSO THE RESPONSE THAT I GOT FROM THEM :-

          Deduction of Amount from the Prepaid Account
          Respected Sir/Mam,

          My name is Manish Aggarwal and I am a Airtel prepaid connection user with Mobile # [protected](Haryana Circle)...I have been using this Mobile Number for quite a long while now and had no major concerns in the past.But from past few months,almost every single day I am being charged for a service called (AIRTEL LIVE) which is offered by Airtel,for no reason.Despite of contacting Airtel Care END NUMBER of times and requesting them to deactivate this service on this Mobile Number,I am still being charged almost everyday for the same service which surprisingly I HAVE NEVER EVER USED...Every single time when I contact Airtel regarding the same I am being asked to delete some settings from the handset that I use,which unfortunately has NOT DONE any good.THE MOST SUPRISING PART IS THAT WHEN I ASK THE AIRTEL PEOPLE TO DEACTIVATE THIS SERVICE FROM THERE END,I AM TOLD THAT THIS SERVICE CANNOT BE DEACTIVATED FROM THERE END AS ACCORDING TO AIRTEL ONE WILL ONLY BE CHARGED WHEN HE USES THIS SERVICE WHICH IS VERY HUMILIATING AND DISGUSTING AS I HAVE NO PROOF THAT I DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE...I have escalated the issue end number of times in the Custmore Care Dept. but have never been provided with any permanent resolution to this.Every time it is a QUICK FIX that the Customare care dept. gives and few days down the line the same issue reoccurs(That the amount starts getting deducted from my account).Though I only use this Mobile Number as an alternate number as I am not currently residing in Haryana anymore,but still I will be using this number and would like to get this issue sorted out at the earliest as I have already paid A LOT to airtel for something that I've never used.Any assistance from your end would be greatly appriciated..Waiting for a positive response..

          Thanking You,
          Manish Aggarwal

            Dear All,

            I purchased AIRTEL-3G-Broadband Data Card ( with 3G plan - supports upto 7.2Mbps)

            My number is [protected] - Purchased with Airtel USB 3G Modem E1731

            Purchased and activated on 3rd Feb 2011

            The connectivity is very slow and it is giving only 132 kbps , when I called the airtel purchased outlet Chrompet they said to call customer care .

            When I called customer care one representative told no 3G available in Chennai .

            Later supervisor Mr.Saqib spoke to me for 20mins but not resolved

            It is pure failure from AIRTEL-NEW - 3G and concern person should take immediate action.

            Guys please do not buy Airtel 3G in Chennai .


            Regards,

            Hello Mr. Rakesh Ranga,

            It is AIRTEL-3G-Broadband Data Card ( with 3G plan - supports upto 7.2Mbps) [protected] - Purchased with Airtel USB 3G Modem E1731

            if you call it will be switched off only because it is data card

            my mobile number is +91 [protected]

            no one helped / cared in airtel to solve this even after escalating in call centre / Nodal officer

            Regards,

            +91 [protected]
            My problem is solved by Mr. Lakshmi Narasiman, Technical Person @ Tamilnadu Circle - finally
            he is the best in Airtel overall.
            I too have purchased a 3G data card bearing No.[protected] with E1731 7.2mbps speed and 695 plan and since the day i have purchased its been troubling me, firstly even after installation every time i re-insert the USB it goes to F Drive asking for installation, twice i have un-installed and re-installed but the problem persist, Secondly the speed is a pathetic its worse than a normal data card of Tata Indicom that i have been using, worst part is as soon as i leave Delhi/NCR the stupid things stops working stating "no data connection". In cities like Lucknow and areas which are hardly 100km away from Delhi it does'nt work at all, whereas i was told in cities where 3G is not introduced you will get 2G connection, forget 2G or 1G i dont get a connection at all.

            When contacted the call centre they tried all their permutation and combinations by removing the SIM and putting in a Mobile phone, selecting the network manually, re-inserting it back to the data card and what not but it simply refused to work, and whenever a call is made to the Call centre, whoever the executives are they simply promote the new Rehman Tune (hardly understand the lyrics..but the melody is music to ears) and then it goes blank that's it, fortunately a complaint was finally registered on 7th March which was supposed to be cleared by 17th March (10 days and you are at their mercy) and till date there's no single call from airtel to clear this

            I am customer to Airtel since the day they started their operation in India but i sincerely appeal to the mass please do not buy Airtel 3G data card, the service is simply beyond expectation. To lodge this complain i am using a Tata Indicom Data Card.

            In case if anybody is listening then please call me back at my registered no. as recorded in your system.
            MR:sunil mittal and nodal officer

              AIRTEL Broadband/IPTV — Poor service

              I am facing an issue with the service provided by airtel

              On 2nd July, I requested to airtel to shift my connection from Delhi to Dwarka.

              From last 20 days I am just listening commitment from customer care and nothing happened with with the shifting. I am planning to request to disconnect my IPTV & DSL connection as it is taking too long.

              I was not expecting such poor service from AIrtel.

              My request no. 358052 is pending since 2nd july.

              Thank you,
              Vikas Awasthi

              Hi Rakesh,

              I have all the instrument from previous connection.

              Will this help me to get quick connection.

                  Hi

                  I have an airtel mobile number. I got a blank call from this number [protected]. When I called back , the person who receive the phone told me to that I won a prize and ask me to note down this 89911 and also ask me to switched off the cell and remove the sim. But then I disconnected this call immediately.

                  So request you to take proper action and ensure personal details of the consumer should not be shared with anyone. And please ensure this number is not being cloned.

                  Thanks

                    I undersigned am having the Airtel prepaid no [protected] since Nov 2010.Through this complaint i want to tell that i have been charged Rs 99/- and 30/- on two occasions.I have not asked for the service. like downloading value pack and airtel friendchat service. The message comes and straightway the money is deducted from my account. When called to customer care firstly they make us to wait for at least half an hour and then they transfer the call to higher executive and every time while transferring the call the call gets dissconneted. Ihave request no CBCC[protected] for deducting Rs 99 and request no CBDFC[protected] for deducting Rs 30/- dated 7th January and 2nd February respectively.If the complaints are not looked for i have no choice to change the service provider.
                    Thanks.

                      Address: Maharashtra

                      I had purchased Airtel digital tv connection in april 2010 online and engineers came to install in month of may 2010, as our society has MDU installed the engineers told me that they wont give me my seperate dish antena and provide connection from the MDU itself. I told them that I want my seperate connection as I have ordered it seperately. But then too they gave me connection from MDU. In the month of Aug. 2010 I had called on 12150 to provide me with my dish antenna, but they demanded Rs. 2,250/- extra for the same, which was quite shocking as I had ordered all the items in a package. Then one of my neighbours had purchased a individual dish tv and he got a seperate connection, hence it appears that airtel has different rules for different peoples and they fool people after taking the money from us. Since then I have been complaining again since last 1 and half month and still no action has been taken. Pinki Katke, Mumbai

                        MNP rejected by Airtel Prepaid

                        I have conacted airtel customer care and they have no idea about it and tata docomo says it has been rejected by airtel and they have to approve.

                        I don't know what are the problems here? First i am a post paid customer of airtel 2years back, last year i cleared all my dues up to last penny and migrated to prepaid [more than 6months back]. Now i am a prepaid customer, I have been using it since 2 years and its on my name.

                        Now again i have applied for MNP on 30-01-11 to Tata Docomo. Please make sure that no problems will be raised this time. Kindly fix the issue and let me port out to docomo..

                        Thanks in advance...

                          I am using Airtel Network in my mobile [protected] with lifetime offer for the past five years. I used to recharge with Rs.119 booster back for free messages and calls at subsidised rates. This being the sitution I recharged with Rs.121 as top-up. Again I recharged with Rs.119 booster on 31.01.2011. While using my mobile, there was a message informing that recharging with Rs.37 will enable local and STD calls at Re.1 for a duration of three minutes. I have done this recharge on 01.02.2011. To my shock when I used my cell phone on 02.02.2011, I was charged with Re.1 per call even for a duration of less than a minute. Seven times I called the Airtel helpline 121 but it was abruptly cut or no proper answers were given. My request for elevation of the request went in vain. Every time I wanted to complain, I had to enter into IVRS and once it took even seven minutes and twenty seconds for an abrupt disconnection. After repeated request a complaint was registered as CBNRA [protected] AT 2.31 PM 02.02.2011 still remains unsolved. My son has a unlimited broadband connection. The most pitiable thing is the recharges were done in Airtel outlets only at Ambattur. I propose to make a consumer complaint if Rs.156/- is not restored to my account immediately. I am sorry for the irresponsible attitude of Airtel's nature towards their valuable customers. N. SRINIVASAN

                          i had puchased a connection of airtel friends card in july since i have purchased it they are charging me unnecessarily and even not responding to my complaints i have lost balance of more than 50 for no reasons they activate services and do not inform and when i told them this they say that you are lying please help me out
                          Called to Airtel Call Center & Requested to change the Bill Plan on Aug 15th Morning. But due to some GPRS issues, I again called to customer care on same day evening to cancel my given Bill Plan Change request. They are also agreed for same & Informed me that request taken to cancel. But Plan got changed & i Got GPRS charged around 1947 rs. Yet they asking to pay the amount to release my Service.

                            Address: Goa

                            I refer to the complain made to Airtel regarding my excess BillingON PHONE NO [protected]. I would like to state the following facts.



                            My December 2010 bill was approx. 16,000 and after paying the bill there was a message that your O/s bill amount is 29,000
                            Since then I am after Airtel customer care to please put a check on my excess billing.
                            My credit limit was Rs 19,000 and the bill rose to Rs. 29, 000?????? How inspite of the credit limit
                            On 3rd January I was informed by Airtel office that since the bill generation date is 22nd January, so you have to wait till January 22nd. I had warned Airtel that you are ware that the crime is to happen but you are not taking any measures to Control it.
                            On 20th Jan. 201i I received a call from form Airtel Panjim office that we will generate the bill on 22nd and GPRS charges would be reversed.
                            Till 26th January 2011 when there was no reply from Airtel office I again wrote to Airtel customer Care.
                            They have registered my complain with service request of 35521076, and have assured to come back by 1st February 2011.
                            On 30th January 2011 I receive a call from Airtel Gurgaon for my complain and who once again assure that the complain will be handled and will come back to you shortly.
                            On 31st January 2011, I had spoken to the no of Nodal Officer wherein I had once again requested to sort my complain out and have received an assurance that we will comeback to you by 2.00 0 clock in the afternoon.
                            Around 5.00 o clock in the evening on 31st January 2011, I get a Phone call from Airtel office that the bill charge is as per the usage.
                            Around 8.30 in the evening of 31st January 2011 I receives an email from the Nodal Officer that bill is as per the usage charge.




                            I need to put my point forward as under:



                            If my credit limit is only Rs. 19000 how my unbill amount has gone up to Rs. 59,000 approx. till today.
                            Even during my international travels my biil was not exceeding to Rs. 19,000 with international roaming.
                            For the period 22nd December 2010 to 22nd January 2011, I had not moved out of my Goa circle than how my bill has come to approx. 48,000.
                            During my stay at Goa Circles I was 12hours per day on line with my Laptop, hence no question or using any GPRS.
                            Even when I had stayed in the circle or roamed in national roaming my mobile bill has not crossed Rs, 3500 inclusive with the use of GPRS in national roaming.
                            With the average monthly bill of approx. Rs. 3000, how do you expect my bill to rise till Rs. 59000? Is there any logic. ?????? Of course there is something wrong.
                            Inspite of my repeated reminders, email, call to Airtel office no steps were taken to stop the rising bill amount resulting to the total outstanding of Rs, 59,000 as on today which is totally wrong.
                            I do not accept your statement that System generates the bill hence there cannot be an error.
                            With all the frustration of not reactions from your side, I had specifically instructed to DEACTIVATE my GPRS immediately which would be the 1st step on stopping the rising amount.
                            Secondly I had requested for MNP request no for which I did not receive any response. With such response from the Airtel and such lethargy in handling of a customer complain, it is of absolutely no use in continuing with the AIRTEL any more.
                            The bill for 22nd Dec. 2010 to 22nd January 2011 is not at all acceptable to me plus the further o/s of approx. 11,000 totaling to Rs. 59,000 is not ACEEPTABLE.




                            Who in this world can afford to pay a Mobile bill of Rs. 59,000? Even Mr. Sunil Bharti Mittal’s bill will not amount to so much.



                            I am absolutely surprised with the handling of my issue by the Airtel Staff and customer care, wherein you have been warned regularly to stop / investigate on the EXCESS billing but no one took the intiative to go into the detail and stop.



                            I would like to request you to please see that this issue is sorted out immediately and I have no intentions to continue with AIRTEL any longer seeing such lethargic response.

                            Complaint marked as Resolved 

                            Airtel/mobile post paid — Excess GPRS charges

                            Airtel has charged RS. 3151 and RS. 2308 consecutively for the months of Aug, sep 09 as GPRS charges which I claim that excess, because, I do have unlimited data plan broadband internet connection and never my charges for GPRS has exceeded Rs. 350 previously.

                            Airtel claims that the charges are correct, but as per them they don't have any system to cross check or any system for customer to cross check the usage.

                            It has been two months since I have forwarded my complaint, and the customer care has been the worst I have ever saw.

                            I started email communication to airtel but no use. They even donot understand the problem nor try to solve the problem.

                            Kindly guide me how to approach to resolve the issue.

                            Dear Rakesh,

                            We would liek to inform yo that the complain has been resolved around 2nd April 2011, by taking upt the matter with the Senior Airtel Executive in the region.


                            I am not aware how your investigation was influential.

                            Thanks a lot for the efforts but am very much disturbed for the last three months by the followups and description to end numner of Aritel customer care executives. I might have discussed my issues to approx. 20 - 25 people over phone but no one reposted back with the status.

                            Since the issue is Resolved i do not want to make further comments but would appreciate that if customer care executive calling a particular customer - he should be aware of the previous conversation - or else they will have to tell a story to end number of people calling/ attending the complain.

                                Hello Sir,

                                My name is Parthasarathy Mani. Recently in the month of 23rd december 2010 I activated mobile office for 98 rs. But for the month of January also money was deducted and a message came stating that mobile office has been automatically renewed. I immediately Unsubscribed the service and called Airtel customer care regarding this. I was promised that 98 rs. will be credited back to my account within 31st of January 2011, also the agent gave me a reference no. which is CBDM[protected]. But to my surprise money was not remitted till February 1st of 2011. So I called Airtel customer care again and asked information regarding this. This time the agent was rude and said as per the information from back office money will not be remitted back. So I asked her to transfer the call to some other senior executive. She transfered the call and abruptly after 10 min (approx) the call got cut. I called Airtel customer care again, and discussed my issue. Again the agent said i will transfer the call to senior executive and the call got cut. I was really frustated.

                                And for the final time I called Airtel customercare on 2nd feb 2011, and told them clearly that, if I am not answered properly regarding my query I will transfer the service from Airtel to BSNL. After listerning to everything call was transfered and call got cut abruptly.

                                Please let me know how to go about this problem. My anger is not about the money but the irresponsible behaviour of Airtel agents in Chennai. My details are as follows. Also please let me know the best service provider so that I can transfer to a hussle free network.

                                Name: Parthasarathy Mani

                                  Respected Sir,

                                  I Mrs.Nirmala has been using [protected] thru Airtel moblie services for more than 3 Years. And every month there has been excess billing. Even after repeated complaints registered at Customer Support Dept there has been no action taken. And my usual out going calls are local but the detailed bill reflects some unknown outstation Numbers.

                                  Even after all these issues I was making the payment in full.

                                  Since things are going out of control I had not made the payment for 3 months for the amount Rs.3225.

                                  Finally Mr.Prakash ( Airtel Compaly Representative bearing Mob No.[protected] ) approached me to sort out the issue and said would give Waiver of Rs.645.00 and said would change the same Number for PostPaid to prepaid and had collected CH No. 604406 for Amt 2580 dated 31st Jan 2011 drawn on State Bank of Mysore Kengeri satellite Branch vide Acknowledge Receipt No.657300. He committed the change over from PostPaid to prepaid is 24 Hours.

                                  Later when called up Airtel on 1st of Jan 2011 for the update on this process I was told until and unless I pay the entire Amt of Rs.3225.00 the Number cannot be changed.

                                  Out of Frustration I have given stop payment for the cheque.

                                  Kindly consider this complaint and provide me Justice.

                                  Yours Truly

                                  Bharathi Airtel Ltd — Unauthorised barring of the out going calls

                                  I had taken a post connection from Bharathi Airtel from their office near my house in Bangalore. At the time of taking the connection, I had informed them that I work in Bangalore and since my wife lives in Chennai, I keep going to Chennai frequently.I have own house both in Bangalore and in Chennai.

                                  I was asked to take a postpaid plan costing Rs. 400/- pm. I filled in the application form and gave a xerox copy of my land line telephone bill and copy of my driving license. The original of the BSNL land line bill was also shown. After satisfying themselves about my bone fide, the company issued a SIM card and gave me the telephone number as[protected]. The telephone was issued on 3rd October 2008.

                                  Since I had some health problem, I have come to Chennai for a detailed medical examination and have been Chennai since 4th October 2008.

                                  On 5th October, I got a call from some one claiming to be from Airtel informing me that they have come to my house for address verification. I told them that I was in Chennai and will come back to Bangalore after medical examinations are completed when they could visit once again my house, if need be, for address verification.

                                  The address in which I am staying in Bangalore is our ancestral house where my family has been living for over 100 years. The land mark I had given viz., Mitra Stores is our tenant for over 50 years. All these information the company representative who had come for address verification could have ascertained independently without my assistance which would have been better from the company's perspective. However this was done for what ever reason. My house also has my name plate at the house entrance.

                                  Two days back I got a call from the company informing me that my phone will be disconnected since address proof could not be done when the company representative visited my house. I had no prior knowledge of the visit of the company representative and therefore was not available when he visited my home. I called up the company on 121 and requested them not to disconnect the mobile phone and that I will call them as soon as I am back for them to do the address verification.

                                  Today i.e. 10th October at 8.00pm I find that my telephone number is barred for any calls. I called up the company have lodged my complaint for deficiency of service for the following reasons:
                                  1. If it is a pre-requisite that address has to be physically verified despite submission of necessary original and xerox copies of documents for address verification, identity etc., and payment of all the money required for issue of connection, the company should not have given me the SIM card and if the SIM card is given, it should not have been activated without address verification.
                                  2. The company representative who visited my house in my absence could have easily verified my address by talking to any of the neighbors who would have confirmed about my bona fide. This was not done.
                                  3. When I contacted the Airtel 121 in Chennai, my complaint was taken by the Chennai circle and they promised to forward my request to Karnataka Circle and I was informed someone will get in touch with me with in 4 hours. No one got in touch with me so far.
                                  4. Despite my making specific request not to disconnect my phone for the reasons stated, the company, despite collection all the money and deposits, has unilaterally disconnected my mobile phone for no fault of mine.
                                  5. When I spoke to the company representative today at 8.15 pm, I was informed that my phone will not be activated till the address verification is done.

                                  By this unilateral action, the company has put me lot of inconvenience besides causing me mental agony and anguish. There has been clear deficiency of service and lack of courtesy and concern for people who pay all the money demanded by the company for the services provided.

                                  Kindly register my complaint and take necessary action and render justice.

                                  Airtel — Unauthorised Barring Of Number

                                  Hi. Myself Anand Singh and have taken a post paid connection on 15th January 2010. Mr.A. Narendra Prasad from Koramangala outlet has sold the connection.

                                  I took it as individual account.My Mobile number is : [protected].

                                  Some executive came and did the verification from the land lady Miss.Sarala once. She has given the exact information that for last 10 days we are staying in the premises and our HR consultancy

                                  Firm is under process of registration. This i came to know when a lady calls from Airtel office asking for more deposit. I dont know what for

                                  Then she tells me that my land lady has told that we are doing the business for 1 year time and we need to display the company sign board. I made her clear that its a week old company under registration process

                                  And once through with the process we will be surely displaying the sign board. On this she assures me that i will be getting services from Airtel.



                                  Last week that is on 9th February my out going call barred without any prior information. When i spoke to some customer care manager and he said that while verification i need to be present.

                                  So it means that i should keep myself available all the time till verification guys come to see me. That too these guys come on their own wish and accord. So as a human being its not possible for me

                                  to sit in my house 24 7 and wait for executive to visit. Fine then the manager understood the situation and the pain i was bearing and released by outgoing call. He assured me that he is reinitiating verification process

                                  and he also confirmed me that the guy will give me a call before visiting my place as requested by me.

                                  But after that nothing happened. And today again my outgoing got barred. When spoke to customer care same old story of sign board comes. And lot of other stories that executive visited my place thrice for verification. I am completely unaware of it. Today i spoke to almost 4 customer care executive all my eyebrows got completely raised when all four was painting different stories about the date of visit details given by my land lady. They themselves were contradicting their own statements with one other but no one was ready to listen to me...wow customer has not got any right.



                                  My inputs in getting the number and value of this number:

                                  [protected][protected][protected][protected]



                                  (1) I have paid Rs.1000 - extra to get the choice number.

                                  (2) I am paying for my sms as well when in today's market its completely free.

                                  (3) I go and pay the unbilled amount as soon as i cross the tiny credit limit allocated to my account.

                                  (4) Every then and there i spare almost 20 to 30 minutes explaining the same story repeatedly to customer care executive.

                                  (5) I have distributed this number to entire my contacts whether personal or professional and now this got barred

                                  (6) My business got stuck just because my number got barred. I am losing business and trust from my clients



                                  You know why am i doing this Why am i paying for sms when its free because i keep Airtel at very high note compare to any other telecom service providers.

                                  I want to be in premier customer league thats the reason i went with Airtel. I am a customer who loves quality who keeps quality as priority than money.

                                  Sorry to say but till now i had an impression that Airtel values their customer Airtel is customer service centric but you guys have proved me wrong.



                                  I am very sorry to outline followings:

                                  [protected][protected]------



                                  (1) Non of the customer care executive takes accountabilities. I am suffering because of you guys mistake.

                                  (2) No one treated me as human no one even bothered to understand the pain i am going through. No one came with a solution.

                                  (3) After sales i am left as a dead entity. Few Sales like this has given the bad name to entire sales industry.

                                  (4) The gentle man carrying visiting card wearing Airtel shirt and a tie does not know the product he is selling.

                                  (5) Some of your customer care even say that i am not concerned talk to outlet people. How can you say that when every one is under Airtel umbrella. Really Surprised.



                                  You just make me understand that for others mistake why should i suffer as a customer.



                                  My today entire evening has gone running here and there to Airtel offices but surprisingly there was no one available to attend a Post Sales Query.

                                  Have it been a Pre Sales Call thousand person must have come to see me.



                                  Sorry to say but this was really not expected from AIrtel. Please stop making customer suffer because of your mistake.



                                  My last request is to release my calls at the earliest as my business as well as personal life getting affected.

                                  Airtel connects people rather i will say India..is this the way you connect people..



                                  I am flying to Delhi on early morning of 11th Feb.2010 and will be back only on late night of 15th Feb.2010 .

                                    recently vodafone and airtel have installed mobile towers in D A V School, Rainawari. Now they are about to get an arial high tension electricity line through the school. Though the tower is only 2 or 3 mts away from school, what are the legal bindings in such a situation.

                                      On 08/12/2010 I bought a new Postpaid sim ([protected]) from Airtel, Vijayanagar Showroom, the same was not activated till 10/12/2010. I had taken the connection for my home and when it got activated my cousin answered the call and the service provider immediately deactivated the connection and I had paid an advance deposit of Rs.300/- and till today (02/02/2011) I am yet to get the refund. When I called up the customer care after n number of attempts and complained about this they told they will revert back within 4 hours and they called me back the next day (02/02/2011) after reminding them once. They have charged me Rs.68/- for their delayed services. I am hereby enclosing the application of the phone connection. I have been using airtel since from Nov'2006 and I have been very prompt in my payments. I have two more airtel connections and I will bid goodbye to airtel and opt for mobile number portability. I didn't expect such unprofessional behaviour from airtel. How can airtel keep my money for so long when they give us the due date and charge more beyond due date?

                                      Dear Sir,
                                      My SIM No.[protected] has been lost along with handset. After completion of all formalities, I applied for a duplicate SIM. I got one duplicate SIM[protected] on 7-6-2008. My SIM has not been activated till today. You may kindly instruct your concerned people to activate early. I have also cleared the bill for the month of June, 2008. As this is a postpaid SIM, I have to pay for the inactivation period also.

                                      sincerely yours

                                      Now the airtel service has become the worst service provider for the Customer.The Customer care executive are not willing to help the customer related to the Service plan provided by the Airtel. I have recharged with Rs 13 on 7th july, 2013 and I was supposed to get 100 local call and my local call rate supposed to get reduced to 40 p/min but my call rate haven't been reduced to 40 p/min. When I called the customer care he just postponing the date daily saying that problem will be reduced within 12 o'clock at night.But still the problem was not resolved till date. Now I feel that there is no any difference between Airtel and other service provider. Airtel service is being degraded day by day.

                                        i had purchased an airtel sim [protected] around 35 days ago. On the 31 st of jan i had sent an sms to 1900 for the upc code, from the number mentioned above in reply i had got an sms confirming the porting request code number AK923121. Then i went to the bsnl office and i filled up the relevant forms and they give me a new sim, they said that the same number will be activated shortly. But when i reached home i had got another sms from airtel that i cannot port to the other service provider as the airtel number was purchased for not more than 90 days. Then i went to the bsnl office and told them about the sms from airtel . Over there they guided me that the airtel sms is misguiding me, and that i give a written complaint to the consumer forum.
