But my sim was blocked on 19th dec form your side without informing me. I submitted all documents thrice but no one was responsible enough to contact me.
I am very angry now with such careless behaviour of airtel as still my plan of 800min in not activated again,however i received confirmation about the same. Can anyone revert me back on my No.[protected] or email me on anshi.[protected]@gmail.com.

Hello

I am a user of airtel digital tv fro dec 2009.customer id is [protected].

Every time message shows instlation error.before one month engineer have come to resolve the problem and charged 100 rs.

now the problem started again, i have call the engineer,he visited us and told us that your set top box is not working, it requires to change and ask for 1000 rupees also charge 100 rupees for visit.

i just want to know that why airtel making fool to consumers?

it is a problrm of airtel product, and airtel have to change that.

Dear Sir,

Airtel has sent a message to submit ID & address proof against my five years old prepaid no. [protected]. As per instructions, yesterday I have submitted ID & address proof with duly filled form & photo at their Nehru Place centre (SSDN Enterprises). To complete the process I have also sent confimation to "51619" that (as desired) I have submitted the documents. It is extremely unexpected that the services to my no. has been permanently deactivated after five hours of documents submission. Airtel has neither checked the status of documents submission nor they have bothered to inform me before deactivating the no.
I have tried almost 15-20 to contact the CCE on 121 to report the matter but they have not answered the call even. I have written mail regarding this but they have sent any satisfactory response. I have again visited their centre at Nehru Place where I have submitted the documents but they have neither activated my no. nor they have told me any status of documents submitted by me yesterday.
It is extremely unethical & unsupportive conduct level shown by a big co. like Airtel. I'm still stuck helpless with my permanently deactivated no. inspite of fulfilling all the document requirements & trying all possible ways to resolve this matter. Please help to get my no. activated.

I've taken an internet connection from Airtel during Nov'10 and facing the below issues:

1. Installation was not done properly,
2. Was provided a faulty instrument and not yet replaced (even after several follow-ups),
3. Airtel engineer has installed an INEFFECTIVE ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAM - "AIRTEL PC SECURE",
because of which my laptop is infected by viruses.
4. Due to the virus infection the internet speed was decreased (less than 256kbps against the committed
speed of 1Mbps) and now i need to spend in thousands to clean the viruses in my system.
5. I've escalated this issue upto APPELLATE level (since customer care & Nodal failed to resolve the
issue in a reasonable time, DESPITE OF SEVERAL FOLLOW-UPS,) however i've not received any
proper response.

Against the damages caused, i require:

1. ONE MONTH WAIVER (Rs.1249+taxes)
2. TO MIGRATE TO THE PLAN WITH 1Mbps AT THE RENTAL OF RS. 699/- P.M. – OR TO UNINSTALL THE CONNECTION BEFORE 8TH JANUARY 2010.

I need YOUR help to resolve this at the earliest. So far i've wasted lots of TIME and money.

Hello Sir,

First of all I can't understand the style / way of working at your office. I've sent a follow-up mail on 3rd January 2011 (refer the attached mail with subject – "Fwd: Acknowledgement Mail), but you have sent the reply on 4th January for the mail I sent on 26th December 2010.

Consider the latest one before writing your reply.

It's clearly mentioned in the attached mail (3rd Jan '11) that I agree the speed problem is because of virus issue in the system. However the virus issue is not because of any 3rd party Anti-Virus software that I've installed but because of your product – "Airtel PC Secure" (I'VE NOT ASKED YOUR ENGINEER TO INSTALL IT IN MY SYSTEM, HE HAS RECOMMENDED TO USE IT) AND IT MADE THE DAMAGES TO MY SYSTEM.

I'VE CLEARLY MENTIONED MY REQUIREMENTS IN THE MAIL SENT ON 20TH DECEMBER 2011 (ATTACHED FOR REFERENCE).

BECAUSE OF THE INEFFICIENCY OF THE AIRTEL PC SECURE, I NEED TO –
a. TAKE BACK UP OF ALL MY DATA FROM HARD DISKS,
b. FORMAT THE HARD DISKS
c. INSTALL OS
d. INSTALL ALL THE SOFTWARES THAT I'M USING NOW
e. WASTE TIME ON THESE THINGS UNNECESSARILY AND
f. SPEND MONEY UNNECESSARILY

PLEASE GO THROUGH THE ISSUE PROPERLY AND LOOK AT THE FEASIBILITY OF BELOW OPTION AND GET BACK BY TODAY BEFORE YOUR CLOSE OF BUSINESS.

1. I WANT ONE MONTH WAIVER AGAINST THE DAMAGES CAUSED BY YOUR ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAM (To meet the expenses for the POINTS (a-f) mentioned above)
2. I WANT TO MIGRATE TO THE PLAN WITH 1Mbps AT THE RENTAL OF RS. 699/- P.M. – IF YOU CANT MIGRATE MY CONNECTION TO THIS PLAN, PLEASE UNINSTALL THE CONNECTION WITHIN THREE DAYS FROM TODAY (BEFORE 8TH JANUARY 2010), I'LL GET THE SERVICE FROM ANOTHER ISP.

EXPECTING A RESPONSE AT THE EARLIEST. IF NO ACTION IS TAKEN BY TODAY, I'LL BE FORCED TO BRING THIS CASE TO CONSUMER FORUM. (I've brought this issue to nodal on 9th December 2010, yet to get a solution!!)

DO NOT SEND THE SAME STORIES AS IN THE EARLIER MAILS. I'M REQUESTING YOU TO GO THROUGH THE ISSUE PROPERLY

After 2 days, your installation team has come and told me that antivirus
program is free for the customers who have internet connection with speed of
1Mbps and more. Hence Ive accepted to install your anti-virus (Airtel PC
Secure). But its been charged @ Rs. 250 (125*2 - excl of service tax) in the

checking the speed, the download speed was less than 20kbps. You can check with
him the status!! And he said the reason that there are viruses in my system and
thats why the speed is not up to the bandwidth provided (1Mbps).

Hi - Thanks a lot for the reply. Mr. Karthik from your team spoke to me last
evening and he has assured that your retention team will get back to me with a
better plan, since i expressed that i feel that im not getting the service for
what im paying.

Expecting the call from the concerned team. Ill be glad if i get the call by
today.
Ive attached a file containing my internet usage for the last 2.5 years with
Tata Indicom Broadband. It was an uninterrupted service i enjoyed during that
period. I wished to continue availing their service, but unfortunately i
couldnt Since i shifted my residence from Triplicane to Velachery. The speed
was 2Mbps; it was a time based prepaid plan; at just Rs.1800/- (incl of service
tax) PER QUARTER. (Now Rs. 1750/- and Rs 1000/- recharges are available for 3
months validity). I rarely called their customer care office for
non-availability of service, that too was resolved within 2 or 3days. Ive
never made a complaint of poor speed because they have maintained the quality.
And there is no reduction in the speed after reaching a particular limit of
download, the speed was 2Mbps 24 * 365
When such a kind of service can be provided by Tata Indicom, why it cant be by
AIRTEL?
Thanks & Regards

PS: Im paying to Airtel more than twice the amount i paid to TIBB connection,
for a connection speed of JUST 1Mbps (of Airtel) against the 2Mbps speed of
TIBB.

But now it is 14/12/2010 21:50. Nothing has been changed!! I've just received 4 phone calls, inquiring the issue and asking my address. I was frustrated to repeat the same four times. That's it!!

Hi Sir,


I'm not getting a proper response from the customer care as well as from your agent who have installed the connection.


First of all i suspect the connection is not properly installed. I've chosen the Home-shop plan 1249 (2 landlines+1DSL) and got it installed last month (Nov'10)
A box has been set inside the compound of my premises and only one landline has been connected to that. I cannot find where the other landline and the internet connection line[protected] has been connected to. I was not given a proper response in this regard.


Secondly, please find attached document for the download speed, browsing speed and video streaming and let me clarify on the below:


1. Do you want me to pay 1250 + tax for a speed less than 100 kbps??
2. Your own homepage is taking more than 10 minutes to open!!
3. Poorest video streaming: Just a 50 second video takes more than 10 minutes to load!!
4. Monthly payment for an improper installation!!


Expecting a proper reply at the earliest.

Discrepancy in bill generation since the month of Aug (Airtel), Delhi

My no. is [protected]. I did my last payment in Aug and I had called up the airtel customer service to disconnect the no. or else if possible they can convert it to a mumbai no. to which the agent said he will work on it and will convert it into a postpaid mumbai no. and also he suggested me to keep my no in safe custody for few months so that I can retain the same no. Also I requested him to change my rental plan from 299 special to a zero rental plan and it was confirmed to me over the phone that my plan has been changed and it's in safe custody for a period of 6 months. Now in November I am receiving a call from Airtel stating that I have to pay Rs. 1500/-. They were not even aware of the plan change or about the safe custody and were pressurizing me to make the payment at the earliest. Even after talking to around 4-5 agents nobody could resolve the problem. Lastly, I spoke to a senior agent he said he is working on it and in one month's time my no. would be converted to mumbai no. and my arrears will be waived of.
But till date am receiving calls from airtel and every time I have to explain them the same problem when they see they cant do anything about it either they will disconnect the call or else they will make false promises and again after few days someone new will call will the same query. I have requested them to check their records and find out the agent whom I spoke to in Aug who confirmed to me that everything was in order. But it seems airtel never records any of the calls made by the customer and expects its customers to suffer and due to some agents fault the customer has to bear the cost. I was thinking of taking up the same no. or atleast similar no. in mumbai but I am deeply dissappointed by the way my problem is being dealt. I have been a loyal airtel customer since the past 6-7 yrs. I never expected this from airtel. They are harrasing me everyday with their calls on my mobile and my home no. and everyday I have to explain the same thing and they hang up saying they will get back or simply disconnect on my face. I have to call up atleast 5-6 times to get through the airtel customer service after long hold.

If you treat your long standing customers like dirt then soon your brand name will diminish. I hope I will atleast get a response on this. Just a couple of mins back I called up a lady agent and she disconnected my call. If your agents cant help out to such simple queries...I wonder why are they even hired...to create more trouble for the customers...i guess. Most of my friends are also facing the problems with airtel and the customer service is the worst...it's difficult to deal with the agents. Once the no. portability comes in customers of airtel will jump to better service providers in no time.

Dear Sir/Mam,

I want to block 2 numbers - [protected] and [protected] as I am getting fake calls and messages from that number from last 1 month. I talked to customer care but they told me that its not possible for airtel to block some other number.

My number is [protected].

Please block the the above mentioned numbers for incoming calls and messages to my number .

Kindly do needful.

Regards,
Priyanka

I have been using [Impatience 1399 broadband plan] for the last 3 to 4 months but for the last few days,"I am not getting the download speed as per mentioned in your [Impatience 1399 broadband plan].

First complain that i launched was on 29/12/2010 for which i got the service request complain number for phone number [protected] is[protected] and with this the assurance of my problem being solved within 24 hours of my first complain but till now nothing has been done.

R-772,A NEW RAJINDER NAGAR

I called up "Justdial" for Airtel Broadband Installation Numbers on 30/12/2010.
Many executives from Airtel started calling me up instantly. I accepted the offer from an executive(Named "Ansh") who told me that he's directly from Airtel's Okhla Phase-3 office and not a DSA and also recommended me that i should not go by the words of the people from a DSA as they instantly charge the advance and then delay the process of installation, but he will get the broadband installation done within 24-hrs. And thus he sent his executives to my house within half an hour and got the form filled and charged me Rs.500 cash as advance. He also gave me his mobile no. telling me that this is his direct no. and i can call on that no. in future in case of any problem.
After that neither he himself nor anybody from his office contacted me till a week. Neither did anybody visit my house for installation. He didn't pick his phone the whole day next day. I'm trying to talk to him since then but he never comes over the phone .I keep on trying to connect to him. But no response... and since only 2 times somebody picked up the phone and told me that this is the office no. and not Mr. Ansh's no. and doesn't make me talk to Mr. Ansh. When i insisted a lot to tell me the status of my application. He put me on hold and then came back and told me that Mr. Ansh says that installation will be done today(this was on 3rd Jan). But nobody visited my place. I kept waiting the whole day. Nobody even called up. Again the next day(4th Jan) i kept on trying his no. After trying a lot, somebody picked up the phone and said the same to me as the previous day. But Mr. Ansh didn't came over the phone. I even launched complaint in the Airtel Customer care. But their response was also not positive. They said they they dont know anything about whats going on with me and they can not do anything as they dont know Mr. Ansh. Then on 5th Jan, an executive came to my house to get the Airtel form filled from scratch and charge me again, telling me that my area is not under the Okhla office and those people who charged me were some fraud people. I got shocked. i tried calling up Mr. Ansh again and after a lot of effort, somebody again picked up the phone(not Mr. Ansh) and told me that they are working in the Airtel's Okhla Ofiice and are genuine as i got sms's direct from Airtel's side and the form was also original Airtel's form. i have a copy of it with me.
I'm still helpless. I wasted a lot of money in making calls and more that that i wasted a lot of my time. I'm am studying and preparing for MBA Entrances and this thing wasted a lot of my time. I have a lot many tasks which can be done over the net only. But trhis wasted a lot of my precious time. i'm very much pissed off and irritated. But still nobody has either bothered to call me up or visit my place for installation after so many days and so much effort...:-((

SUB: 225 BOOSTER IN AIRTEL PREPAID

This booster had reduced call rates of 50p per min to loc ans std lanline/other mobile and 10p per min to airtel mobiles.The booster is valid for 90 days.

The customer gets a msg that his booster is expiring in 3 days..pls recharge to get reduced rates.(but this msg does not specify that there has been a change in the same plan)

Suddenly the booster has a new change that landline no will be charged at 90p per min.This was done with no prior information to the existing customer in the same plan.

POINT:
1.If there is a change in the plan ,then existing customers in the same plan must be informed .
2.If there is a change in call rates in the already existing plan, it should be named as a different plan.
3.If a customer who has been in a booster plan and after his expiry of his booster continues to recharge with the same plan thinking that there would be no change in plan because of lack of prior information from the service provider then he should be either ALLOWED to have the previous benifits or reverse the booster amount to the customer.
