Another Scam in India with Bharti Airtel.

I have purchased postpaid connection from Airtel Bharti GSM phone company in India.
The service was so quick in terms of activation and selling- by Airtel. I got my number and SIM right at my door step and was happy on first day of its usage. For getting connection I provided all the documents ( indian resident proof) to the satisfaction of the Airtel Agent who came to our door...

Sir

I applied for a online dth connection vide order no 2832069 & form reference no. 2999314 & deposited an amount of Rs 3090 online around 15 days back selecting HD setup box & mega pack. I was promised that the connection would be installed in 48 hours but to my utter surprise that took nearly 8 days(8X24 hours).

when the man for installation came he went back leaving the material at my place& saying that the signal strength is not being achieved. He assured coming the next day but never turned up for next 4 days.Since the material was lying with me being an engineer by profession i installed the dish myself & called up the dealer at shimla to activate the channels.

The dealer responded the next day & my channels got activated. But again to my utter surprise many channels listed in the mega pack were missing. It happended around a week back & i have been running pillar to post for activation of my channels. I called up the helpline nos etc umpteenth times & the final respone is the customer ID coming on my TV set ([protected]) is registed in the name of some other customer. My original customer Id is [protected] which has already been activated but the channels i am receiving is for other customer id.

I really shudder to think about future. Till date no solutions no calls. If i call up i am told it will take time. please help

Dear Sir/Madam,
This is my number,[protected]. On December 15th, 2010 at 5:44 pm, Rs. 99 were deducted from my account balance and I received a message from the company.

"Thanks for downloading CricketChampionsTrophy from Airtel. You have been charged Rs. 99. Join games club at http://gclub.in."

But actually, I hadn't downloaded any game from any website. On contacting the customer care, I didn't get any satisfactory answers from their side, they are not even trying to understand the problem. This is not the first time that I am facing such a problem with Airtel. This is becoming a frequent problem that I am facing with my Airtel number. I would be very grateful to you if you help me out with this problem.

I think they have developed a new strategy to cut the money from customers pocket. I had missed call from air tel whose number is like any other local number, obviously I think that it may be a call from my friend or relatives so I called on this number...they directly activate the service of hello tune without asking for me and cut the money from my account. And this thing happens for two times in last three months. When I called the customer care he said that we cannot refund..it's your fault because you callback...

Extra Money being charged or services which were never requested

Dear sir/Madam,

I, Someshwar Parate, Airtel's postpaid customer under corporate CUG scheme and availing your services under Bill Plan - ALC 149 Plan - MH, since April-2008 in the city of Pune.

I never wanted to escalate against such reputed establishment on this Public Forum, but since last couple of months, I have been observing that charge of Rs. 30/- being lavied for some services under "SMS Others to # [protected]". I am not aware of this service rather never requested for any or dialed/SMS this number.

Seeing this charge on my Oct-10 bill, I have called CC and got this charge reversed and was really thankful for their cooperation. But, the same I am seeing in my Nov-10 bill as well. I againg gave a call on 198 and registered a complaint (#[protected]. But this time, charge hasn't been reverted but asked to wait till resolution about this complaint comes and I was told that somebody would call you about this.

It is really frustrating and I don't see any way to understand, what AIRTEL is expecting by doing so.
Charging for unnecessary reasons or for those services which were never asked is something like harrassing the people.

I request “Airtel Top Honchos/Concerned Authorities/Circle Authorities” to look into matter and stop being fooled customers.

Awaiting for your positive reply and action

I am Amol Shinde. My Mob. No is [protected].

I am using Airtel Prepaid Service from last 6 year. But from last 10 days, Airtel gives me very bad service. and It gives mentally/ Psychological tension to me.

Firrst they stop my friend plan . and Now They stop my service (incoming and outgoing calls also). They give reason that your validity will be expired. But my service validity will be up to 13 NOV. 2013. and I have a mail from airtel service [protected]@airtelindia.in, In that they also said that your validity will be up to 13 NOV. 2013. So Can they stop my service.

If call to them that time they said that we can't help you about this. and in their mail they suggest me new recharge option.

If my validity will be up to 13 NOV. 2013 then Why I recharged again.

Airtel gives me more mentally stress during last 10 days.

Please give me option to take action against Airtel.

I give you that mail below:

Dear Sir,
I am a mobile phone subscriber with Airtel. My mobile No. is [protected]. My name is Mrs Swadesh Misra.
Right from the time I applied for the connection, I have indicated my gender in absolute unambiguous words but the company in all its correspondence addresses me as 'Mr'. I have brought this to the notice of the company's functionaries a number of times, there is no response and I continue to be addressed as 'Mr Swadesh Misra'. This depicts the total insensitive attitude of the company.
May I , therefore, seek your intervention in this regard to have the records straightened.
Thanking you.
Yours sincerely.
Swadesh Misra.

I had booked an Airtel DTH connection through my local dealer M/S Dass Electronics, Sibbari Road, Karimganj-788711, Assam on[protected]. They told me that my connection will be installed within 48 hours. Subsequently I got a phone call from their call centre and asked to recharge for Rs. 1590.00. Accordingly I paid that amount through IVR by my credit card. I was given transaction ID 11699199 from their side.

But, it is very much unfortunate to say that, the amount is not credited in my account till date. I complained several times through phone and email, but failed to get any satisfactory reply from their side. I also provided my credit card statement reflecting the transaction to them 2 times.

I request you to find an early solution to my problem.

Hi sunil Bharti Mittal

I am customer of your airtel Broadband from last 5 years. Previously I was proud customer of airtel but now I feel shamed that I was ever part of that. I am also shareholder of airtel. Please see the matter below if you can do something otherwise I will raise in other platforms.

I raised the complained against wrong bill on 29th august 2010 with complaint no – 37003366. In the same call I told if this is not solved I will not pay. ( No body want to pay more and it was double amount) . Customer care told It is resolved in 2 days. After 2 and half month I got call with all additions like late payments etc. Then these your stupid people in 10 days given me 50 calls, I want to know where these people are when I raised a complaint. Please ask them not to give me so many calls otherwise I am going to raise this in gov platform.

I am ready to pay what is correct amount of 1 month 6 days - ( amount I paid for installation) . Because this is poor or say very poor service I got from your side and so service agreement is broken from your side. As I already told please close My connections and send me correct bill upto 2 of september minus all other installation.

Waiting for your quick reply. Reply in 3 working days.

Regards

Jaspreet

This is in reference to some channels subscribed through Airtel Digital TV, the company does change the pacakages as and when they launch a new scheme and charge the consumer on any pretex of deleting or adding a few channels. This causes a lot of inconvenience.
More over its a one way traffic, ie,, a consumer can only top up an additional channel but does not have the facility to delete the channel from the subscription list and the corresponding amount for the channel must be credited back to the customer. if not these DTH companies continue to fleece the customer under one pretext or the other.

I had purchased C3 nokia mobile along with a new prepaid airtel connection no. [protected]. Airtel had promotion scheme with nokia in which airtel was giving 6 months GPRS free upto 2 GB on new C3 nokia handset. Inspite of my repeated complaints and reminders the problem has not been resolved. SERVICE REQUEST NUMBER [protected] has already been lodged with Airtel on 2/12/2010. On 7.12.2010 I again emailed a reminder to 121.Subsequently I received a reply asking for scanned copy of bill and IMEI number of the handset. A scanned copy of bill and other details as required were mailed to them. After that inspite of repeated reminders I have not received any reply nor the problem has been resolved.
