      I am currently in UAE, Am using Airtel SIM ([protected]) since last 8 years with every time sufficient balance to keep in active status.

      Since yesterday my mobile does not show the Airtel SIM and i changed mobile to check but it does not show the Airtel SIM but all other sims are showing.

      then i checked Airtel mobile APP it shows SIM is active and do have mobile balance and validity.

      Kindly advice what is the problem caused and please rectify if any problem globally.

                  Airtel one plan 1999 request was raised on 30th, June 2021. As per their website https://www.airtel.in/one-airtel-plan/ airtel xtream box worth 3999 is free with 1999 plan but when they had come for installation they have asked for 1500 security deposit. Isn't it wrong to advertise something and then change it by making changes to your marketing materials? It is a complete error of communication from airtel and also that they decided to change something overnight and not update customers/their official website on the same. I have canceled the setup as of day one if they can lie/cheat am sure it would be the case going forward. I will ensure I change my postpaid services too as well as my family's the least I can do.

                    Airtel T. Nagar North usman road chennai outlet forced me to recharge Rs. 219/- as first time recharge when I converted post paid to prepaid on[protected]. Moreover customers are forced to download airtel app to get outgoing call activation for prepaid connection. You can not force customer to use airtel app and it should be optional. Is it mandatory as per airtel rules. If so look into it and re consider the issue. Airtel is denying customer to update their email id through their app to avoid registering grievance or complaints from customers. I have updated my mail id through airtel app from T.Nagar airtel outlet and my mail id is also verified from the app. Now more than 6 days past it is still not activated. mails sent to [protected]@in.airtel.com are retured back with automated message maid is not registered. contact 121 to update your mail id. But the customer care no.121 does not have the option to register mail id which the airtel is not aware ?. please wake up and resolve the issue immediately.
                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                    No updation from airtel even after 48 hours. Very poor response to customers grievances.

                              Hi Team,

                              I have been charged in June month bill for calling ICICI Toll free number [protected]. When I registered the complain, then I have been told that number starting with 1800 will be only considered as toll free number. But as per the screenshot, it clearly says that [protected] is toll free number and also this information was never conveyed to me earlier. I would like to highlight this, as normal customer is getting exploited even if the information is correct.
                              Request you to please check this issue on priority.
                              Relationship number: [protected]

                              Thanks & Regards,
                              Arunabh

                                Sir,

                                I have recharged an airtel mobile number [protected] on 12.06.2021 vide reference number [protected]IGALHMOKT7 for Rs. 129.00 but neither above said mobile has been recharged nor the said amount has been credited in my bank account.

                                Hence it is requested to reimburse the said amount to my bank account immediately.

                                Thanking you.

                                  I am a very old customer of Airtel. I recharged my phone with Rs.2495.00 with all india numbers free + 2 GB per day data. I had to send an SMS to SBI on 567691to unlock my credit card. The SMS was not going. I was informed that this is a special number and that the annual pack of 2495 does not cover the said numbers for SMS. So I recharged with Rs.79.00 on 29.06.2021. Still the SMS is not going. I am 70 years old and cannot keep running to your office everytime. Your local office was not able to offer a proper remedy for the same. Do the needful urgently. My credit card is blocked.

                                      I had done a recharge through airtel thanks app of Rs 598/- on 26/06/2021 for my mobile number [protected] . The airtel thanks app shows that Rs.40/- off for recharging the same 598 plan. I select recharge now option on the app and select amazon pay as payment mode. It shows that I have to pay Rs.558/- after discount. In my amazon pay balance it had a Rs.185 and balance of Rs.373 deducted from my bank account by amazon pay and the total of Rs.558/- amazon pay made the transaction to airtel. On same time i got a message from airtel mentioned one order id for the same recharge. But recharge not done by airtel and successful message not received till now. I contacted airtel and tell about this. But the representative tell me that the recharge amount not reflecting in their side and i have to contact amazon pay. Next day i contacted amazon pay customer care and tell about this. They tell that the transaction was successful from their side and they send the details of the that. I forwarded the same mail to airtel and tell again all the story. But airtel is not doing anything for solving the issue. And also regarding this I create a service request through airtel thanks app but airtel team close the request without solving the issue.

                                        Address: osmanabad Bypass road shams co-operative society.

                                        For months I have been trying to complain to airtel that after the daily limit of 4g data pack which is 3gb per day, the top up or the extra data which has been recharged of 251rs 50gb data, it doesn't get used after daily data is over!

                                        Instead of switching to the extra backup data I get notifications to recharge! Data limit is over! I try restarting the device, turning the airplane mode On Off.. then i try clearing the cache of the phone service, carrier service and settings. Even then the backup data is not getting switched on and I keep seeing the notifications to recharge!!

                                        Airtel doesn't have a clear contact email or customer service to contact! They have hindered users from complaining! This is the email id they have provided which always fails to deliver them, and i get reverted back to call on 198! After calling them the service executives are never helpful, despite hundreds of complaints the issue is still the same!!

                                        After the daily limit is over, the 4g doesn't use the backup data for hours of frustration!! To which the customer care scammer says that it is due to network load in the area! But You can see the speed test screenshot, the download speed is disaster, whereas the upload speed is fine, which means the network is clear, but their system is faulty or the workers are negligent, or maybe they are scamming, by making the users to recharge again and again by saying daily data is over.

                                        Into the attachments you can clearly see, that daily data shows 0 / zero after usage, and the extra data recharge which was done for rs.251 of 50gb, there is 18.5 gb data left! But their system doesn't read that and they keep giving warnings that your data is over, please recharge which you can see in the other screenshot when i tried to create a help ticket for network issue, they sneakily warn that your data balance is running low, please recharge, to which many people might recharge and give them the money! That is how fraudulent they are behaving..
