I paid Rs.1590/- with my credit card and purchased an Airtel Digitaltv on 3rd November,'10. The transaction was made over telephone to the customer care of airtel digitaltv. I was told it would be delivered within 72 hrs. since then more than two weeks have passed no one ever came or call. I made nearly 50 phone calls to their customer care asking for installation. each time I was told it would be installed in 24 hrs. But nothing happened. I cannot believe a name as big as Airtel can cheat in such a petty manner!


Is there any way I can get my money back?

AIRTEL DIGITAL TV — non delivery

We bought the airtel digital TV on 19th sept,2009.but till now,i.e.,24th sept,no one came to install it at our house.Is this the service given to customers by the no.1 digital service provider in India?
On your website,it is written that our call centre executives are ready to help u 24 hours,but it takes nearly 15-20 mins for the call to reach them.This is disgusting.On your brochure,it is written that delivery would be made in 72 hrs.This is a complete show-off.we were told by the retailer that compared to others,buy airtel because its service is better.Now we realised what better service u are giving to your customers!

AIRTEL DIGITAL TV — No delivery / Information Status

Product Name : Air tel Digital TV DTH Rs.1290/- Customer Id :[protected]; Payment transaction Id: 48037.
Dated : 04-Nov-2011

As per air tel commitment with in 24 hrs delivery, they are not made the commitment. after contacting customer care pathetic response.
Customer care services very very poor. always false commitment.Including Supervisors & Superior

Kindly provide me when it will happens delivery it not cancel the transaction revert back my money.

    My mobile number is [protected]. I have been using 0.facebook.com, which is a free facebook website service. On FAcebook it is mentioned that the service is free. When i caled 12118, GPRS helpline, they also accepted that the service was free. But today, on 11th november i was charged Rs. 15 was browsing some 1.2 MB data using GPRS. I dont know why!. after 10 minutes, i get another message saying Rs. 14.10 has been deducted for using GPRS service and browsing 910 kb data. I again called the customer care . that person did not know what to do and neither did he sounded like he wanted to help. he put me on hold and later hung up without saying anything. ( Customer care managers. please see to this problem. it has happened to me before. and i am sure it happens to other people. the executives just hangs up while we are on hold. we are not some outcasts. we pay you. so you better listen to us!)

    After that call , another message came, saying i have been charged Rs 0.60 . And after that another message saying that i have been charged Rs. 1.20 for using GPRS. ! I was so surprised at this. I again called the customer care .. This time again, the executive hung up.
    My balance has been absurdly charged upwards Rs. 40 for browsing the free content! I cant even give the exact number because they tend to come after every other minute so its hard to keep track.
    This is not the first time it happened, earlier, i used to use the yahoo messenger servic eon airtel live. it would cost like Rs. 10 for 10 days or something. and airtel used to me charge me that amount twice a week . I talked back then too. Help me out.

    my request reference number is CBDAL[protected]

    The same happened with me as well. I used it for couple of minutes and my balance came down from Rs. 48 to Rs. 0.08...customer care guys never help! this is a pathetic service from Airtel!
    same has happened with me last week.I am a postpaid user and it is getting count in the bill. I called on the customer care and he told that these are the browsing charges. but if its charged then why is the comapny saying it free?
    hellooooooooooooooooo
    I have been having the same problem..and Airtel is doing none whatsoever to right it..what the hell is going on?
    i an also having same problem
    and The fools at 198 were not even able to understand it
    i called for 9 times one after another
    and they kept me on hold then disconnected the call
    i am thinking to sue them on Consumer Forum
    even im facing the same problem a past few days due to which ive stopped using facebook on my phone..
    this problem should be rectified..
    same here, till 5 days ago my free facebook was working well, but it just suddenly stopped opening...i got some charge like 100rs, and used 0.facebook.com, and right from 88 it came doen to 0.4 rs..niice.. i called 12118 and they told me to change some settings and it still didnt work...i am a facebook freak but i love my money so pleeeeeeeeease stop charging sooo absurdly for a free site! and gimme back my free facebook! >.<
    I agree...even i had this same problem...

    they charge atleast 30 to 40 rupees for this...whn it is clearly mentioned it's free...!

    when i called the customer care...they tend to hung up...!!

    i didn't know airtel does TREASON like this...!!
    Try not using value added services of airtel as far as possible..only use it if its very important.

      I got a service message from airtel stating the availability of an Rs.44 ISD recharge. (ISD calls 1re/min)
      Recently I made an EC recharge for activating an ISD booster in my prepaid SIM . The recharge costed Rs.44. (ISD calls for 1 rupee per min)

      In 2 minutes I got a confirmation SMS that the Recharge has been done successfully.
      but when i made an ISD call, it costed Rs.9.80 per minute.
      I immediately called the customer service., they say that the recharge has not been updated yet. They even told me to visit the EC recharge retailer and get clrified from him. I even went there and asked him to call the "service for retailers". he did that, and they have told him that it'll get activated in ten minutes. (then why the hell did i get a confirmation SMS in not more than 2 mins)

      again, I made the ISD call the morning after.
      BUT WTF, still it has not been activated.
      I've been calling the customer care for 3 hours till now. STill thery're not even attending the call ..

      I want someone to heed to this problem immediately.
      Thanks in aadvance

      AirTel — not proper response from customer care

      I have been using airtel service now since 3 yrs now, but i have never seen so bad service till now. Its as simple as that since 3 months i have been trying to break friends group on my cell phone and nothing happened till now.Thats why i am unable to create new group. There are many instances where the customer care executive would speak very rudely, or in pathetic English, even threatened me once. They deducted some amount for nothing at all.

      I never expected this from Airtel.

        Hi,

        I have taken a new Airtel Dth connection in the month of October 2010. I had taken the 1590 Rs plan in which i was promised to get 4 months free subscription + 250 Rs Cashback to my account.

        Since last two days i am receiving messages on my mobile that my Airtel Dth account balance is zero and will be discontinued soon. Today i got couple of automated calls also regarding the same, Even after providing the proof of payment (Credit Card Statement) and raising the complaint with them.

        After calling customer care and speaking with Anurag & Mragendra, I came to know that my account was actually started with Rs999 only and current account balance is Zero (which is a big mistake from Airtel Team), However actually i had paid Rs 1590 for Economy Pack Plan.

        I requested them many times by calling the customer care, but all in Vein.This is the worst customer care i have seen in India.
        I had paid the Amount (1590) via IVR System using my HDFC Credit card..

        Again spoke with their floor supervisor Dharmendra Kale, & he assured me that rest of the Subscription and cashback to be credited into my account within next 24 hours, which did not happen actually even after 48 hours.


        Below are the my details i sent to Airtel: -

        Name: - Vipin

        Customer ID: - [protected]

        Transaction ID: - [protected]for Rs 1590)

        Plan: - 1590 Economy Pack (Rs 250 + 4 Months Free Subscription)

        Mode of Payment: - IVR using HDFC Credit card

        Date of Payment: - 17 Oct 2010

        Date of Activation: - 21 Oct 2010

        Email ID : vkc.[protected]@gmail.com


        Can i expect any help by posting this to Indian Consumer Complaint Forum?

          I have been using Airtel prepaid mobile connectivity for the past many months. In September 2010, the outgoing and incoming calls services were barred and I was asked to resubmit identity and address proof and I submitted the application along with photograph and copy of the driving license in October, at Airtel Customer service outlet at Jayanagar . Despite that, the connectivity was NOT restored.

          On enquiry at the Airtel outlet I was asked to resubmit the documents as I could not produced the details of the acknowledgement issued by them for having submitted the document earlier.

          I submitted the documents again on 12th November 2010 at the Airtel Customer care out let at Kammanahalli (Touch N Talk Com) and I was told that the connectivity would be restored in 3 working days.

          However, the connectivity has not been restored and on enquiry on 19th November 2010, I was told that I SHOULD RESUBMIT MY DOCUMENTS. When I showed the receipt issued as acknowledgement for having submitted the documents, they checked up with the customer service back office and I was then told that the verification is still not completed and I should wait for another 3 DAYS.

          During my wait for more than 30 minutes at the AIRTEL Customer care outlet at Kammanahalli, I found many customers coming with similar complaints as mine, of non restoration of connectivity despite having submitted the required documents.

          For some reason Airtel seem to be harassing the Pre-paid customers by deliberately not taking note of the documents submitted to them and disconnecting the mobile services.

          The time and effort of the common public cannot be wasted for the inefficiency in processing the documents by Airtel.

          A week go my new SIM card was blocked due to " non-submission" of necessary document- viz. a photocopy of my Visa details, which the dealer had not asked me for.

          I submitted the necessary document the day after I was requested to submit the photocopy. Nonetheless I remain without any phone/ Mobile services for these last few days, although i was assured that the service would be resumed within 24 hours of submission of the necessary documents.

          I find this a pretty unacceptable treatment of a customer who has to rely on phone connection for all kinds o[censored]rgent business.

          airtel really sucks these days. my number got barred in outgoing calls for its non submision of proofs. i submitted again the proofs (driving licence of mine) in anna nagar airtel outlet. they said the number will be back on track within 3 days. four days up, my barred outgoing calls r not been released. Airtel is giving me an unpleasant mobile services. i totally disagree with the services. Airtel lost its respect i had. if not my number is back by tomo, i will throw it off n will surely change to some other network. And i want to make this under your attention. the staffs in the airtel outlets don at all respond good. they were busy in chatting rather than looking at the customer's service. i have been to an airtel outlet in second line beach, chennai and also to an airtel outlet in anna nagar..both have bad customer satisfaction. they dint at all respond me properly.. AIRTEL SERVICE SUCKS :(

          Its already more than a week,
          How much more time you require. A job whihc can be done in 05 Mins is taking too much of time.

          Please let me help in understand the problem in restoring the services. Since every time I calle up 121 they says services are restored but its not working. Now is that my problem that services are enabled but its not working

          Or please share the escalation matrix so that I can proceed ahead for resolution of my problem.

          Please help me quickly as I am not having this much of patience.

                I was imposed a hefty postpaid bill of Rs 2038.84/-.
                I filed complaint against this discrepancy number of times but did not received proper explanation nor any assurance from airtel. I paid bills for subsequent months , despite of that my outgoing services were blocked.
                Even when issue was not resolved the incoming services were also blocked in month of Aug.I have to suffer a huge loss as my Airtel number was blocked unnecessary. Many of Recruiters could not contact me as the service was blocked. Along with this I was getting continuous calls from recovery department and other airtel teams for payment.Now as this issue was for the month of May the impact was carried till month of August. I wrote to airtel customer care,Nodal officer , Appellate officer but never received solution on this.
                I have all those communication with me.
                I had really suffered a lot using Airtel service. Today also I get mail for payment.

                Airtel Postpaid Mobile Services — Poor network and abrupt services

                BE AWAY FROM AIRTEL, A ROUGUE MOBILE SERVICE PROVIDER !

                I am having Airtel post paid connection from last 5 years. Its now a disappoint for me that, Airtel mobile network service has become such a serious poor service that they are now a days just road side prank cheaters. Manytmes, I have sent so many threatening, abusing and even threatening SMSs to kill their top management over poor service in Pune. But to my surprise, till now either their services is improved nor they have deceny ask me what's that huge problem I am fussing about. Airtel is an such a rougue organisation, Idont have any words to explain.

                If I have the power (or I would be the TRAI) to take any actions against AIRTEL, I would have put the entire top management, including Mr. Mittal behind bars for voilating good corporate governance norms.

                Airtel Postpaid Mobile Services — abnormal billing to mobile no 9611126770

                Dear Sir,
                We have post paid mobile connection bearing mobile no [protected] to our Executive of KVG Bank - Dharwad - Karnataka. Last week our Executive was on official tour to Malyasia for 6 days. During his tour he has hardly contacted 8 to 10 times to the nos at INDIA. We have received messages stating the bill amount is Rs 41600/- which is abnormally very high. After contacting to local authorised service providers at Dharwad there is no proper response. They direct us to get information through customer care. At customer care the person attending the calls change frequently & suggest to wait for some time. We are facing difficulty to contact the right person an solve the issue.

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

                My no. is [protected] (post paid). 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.
                The same thing happend to me also.
                My mob no is [protected].
                Plan informed by dealer: CUG unlimited free, 2000mins Local & STD airtel free/month, Local call 30 paise, Std Airtel 60paise, STD others 60 paise.
                Plan confirmed through call: CUG unlimited free, 2000mins Local & STD airtel free/month, Local call 30 paise, Std Airtel 60paise, STD others Rs 1.50.
                Plan in bill: 2000mins CUG & Local & STD airtel free/month, Local call 30 paise, Std Airtel 60paise, STD others Rs 1.50.
                But in this why they are mentioning CUG numbers i don't understand.
                While we made complaint we recieved the plan details as : 2000mins CUG & Local & STD airtel free/month, Local call 30 paise, Std Airtel 60paise, STD others Rs 1.
                Which one we can follow?
                Great business huh!!!

                Airtel Postpaid Mobile Services — Billing Discrepancy

                This complaint is regarding the Air tel Postpaid mobile charges discrepancy issue. I was out of town for 3-4 months and My Phone was with My Mother (who is 60 years old and don't even know how to send or check sms). They charged me 7000+ amount for 3G usage which can not be true. Air tel charged fraud amount from me. I logged a complaint when I was back in Town on which they never responded back and after few days they deactivated my services and started calling all my known people and starting harassing me. They never reverted back on my Alternate Land line or Mobile number which I supplied at the time of logging complaint.

                After few months they emailed me a legal notice to make the payment and their Agent Ashwini called me threatening that If I am not making the payment they will trouble me personally. Then My Husband called Ashwini and they settled to make payment of 5000 Rs and the Air tel Agent sent me an email assuring that once I make the payment they will reactivate my number (On Dec 3 2011) . Last week when I went to Nearest Air tel Outlet in Galleria Market Gurgaon they informed me that my number is permanently deactivated as there is still some outstanding of 3000 Rs. When I called back the Agent Mr. Ashwini he told me that it will take unlimited time to get the services reactivated.

                Highly disappointed with their services and , need urgent help in fixing this issue. Please suggest and help me with this regards. If they cant reactivate the services I need the money back which I paid please.

                Regards
                Ruchi

                    Dear Sir,

                    Are you joking. From earlier phone conversations & earlier mails is it not
                    clear to Airtel poeple when I have recharged. What was the matter. Have you not
                    gone through the earlier mails.
                    Anyway I will again WAKE YOU PEOPLE UP.
                    Please don't go to sleep again.

                    Date & Time of recharge : 08.10.2010 around 11.00 am
                    Place of Recharge : Airtel showroom in Nasik near Divya Adlabs.
                    Validity of Recharge : for Rs. 42 recharge ( for modification local & STD
                    Charges from Rs. 1.00 & Rs. 1.50 to Rs.0.50 & Rs. 0.60 respectively ) was told
                    as 2 years.
                    Along with this I had recharged for Rs. 295 with a talktime of Rs. 295.
                    Another Recharge of Rs. 100 for which a talk time of Rs. 88 was given.

                    Before replying back first do your homework properly. Don't just reply without
                    going trrough the records.

                    Airtel has APOLOGISED through the previous mails 3 times & you can read in this
                    mail itself. This is all because of some lousy & filthy people at work with
                    Airtel.

                    Sanjay Bhatia.

                    Dear Sir,

                    Since last few days Airtel on its own has started deducting my balance on
                    prepaid mobile as per the old rates inspite of revised plan given to me by
                    airtel executive in Airtel showroom in Nasik. My local calls are being charged
                    @ Rs.1 per call & std @ Rs.1.50. After so many complaints over phone & mails
                    the negligent sleepy heads of AIRTEL do not bother of what service they are
                    offering to the customers.
                    Money is not going from your pockets. Time & again you are not waisting your
                    time giving complaints regarding service given because you are being paid for
                    this work.
                    After revised deductions again you started deductions as per the old rates even
                    though I was given a plan of Rs. 42 i.e. 50 paise for local calls & 60 paise
                    for std. I have spoken to airtel customer care executives n number of times but
                    it seems my complaints are falling on deaf ears.

                    Will the NEGLIGENT, IRRESPONSIBLE people of AIRTEL WAKE UP from their SLEEP.

                    This time I will make sure I recover my money from Airtel according to my means
                    & if I become a defaulter it will be AIRTEL WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE.

                    Dear Manoj,

                    Does Airtel really respond to customers complaints within 24 hours or is it
                    merely an eye wash.
                    Is Airtel interested in giving me my refund back or Can I move ahead with my
                    own plans to recover my money from Airtel.

                    Does Airtel have the courtesy to answer the customer's complaint or is it a
                    looting hub.

                    Do revert.

                    Awaiting your reply.

                    Sanjay Bhatia

                    Complaint marked as Resolved 

                    Airtel Prepaid — charged 3 times within 24 hours.

                    Airtel charged 14.99 for Mobile office 3 times within 24 hours.
                    As per their policy they should charge 14.99 once in 24 hours.
                    Now my account is in minus Rs.7.44/-
                    Where to contact?
                    NO point contacting...Airtel will say "We our right...and the customer is wrong"...its a fraud company !

                    prepaid mobile balance — inappropriate deduction of money

                    on 23 september 2010 i activate Rs 98/- gprs connection for 1 month free browsing and 2 Gb download . but to my amaze i was charged about Rs 70 to Rs 80 for simply browsing the net on my mobile. i lodged a complaint on 25 sept 2010 and had been promised that the deducted amount would be refunded. again on 29 sept at around 9pm to 10 pm and was promised a call back however the said promise could not be kept once again.
                    on 30th oct i called up the customer care once again and spoke to the supervisor who bluntly responded me stating that on 25th sept 2010 i activated 1 day mobile internet package @ Rs 20 with the same amount of the deducted amount.with great dissapointment i realize my value of being an airtel customer however the supervisor was thankfull when i state that i m not going to use airtel connection in my life.
                    here i m not asking airtel to refund me the money which has been deducted .my main concern is the way u treat ur customer is a disgrace.

                    Airtel — Inappropriate Information Provided

                    Hi,

                    I had issues logging into the online portal of Airtel. So i called up cust care and they promised to send me a soft copy of itemized bill. Later the supervisor calls me today and states that they wont be able to send it until i subscribe for email copy..Why was it promised then??

                    Secondly, i requested them not to change the password as the issue was not with password and that i had tried resetting it about 10+ times. Inspite of that Airtel goes ahead and resets the password with out my consent.

                    I had called in for a query on SMS package. The rep who attended the call stated that the application is down and asked me to call after 4 hours. Meanwhile the package is activated without taking an authorization from my end.

                    It is becoming a serious concern now as the problem not just lies with the frontline rep, but also with the managers as i have had just bad cust service experiences. They dont let you speak nor try to help you out as a customer. You ask for some information and they deviate from the topic and talk about something else.

                    I just get frustrated...

                    Airtel — inappropriate balance deduction

                    To whomsoever this may concern

                    My airtel mobile number [protected] has very often been a subject to activation of schemes without asking or calling or messaging for any of them . we have ben filing complaints regularly . last time again we got the balance deduction redeemed and asked for any schemes that are active on the phone to be deactivated as we have never tivated any. we got a call checked balance for few days it was the same as the phone is not really used much . but a day or two back deduction started again and on asking them they told us abt a scheme that was activated on one of our std mobile number in december 2010 precisely 27th as told to me by the telecaller. whereas the number in question [protected] stopped working around four months back. and on confronting i was told we activated some sort of scheme and the telecaller was just not reasoning out the fact wen i said if the money is being deducted it will happen everyday but it has not been that clearly means that their is something wrong with the system and they always try to prove us wrong. its enough . we can definitely change numbers and not go through such trouble of filing complaiints but i guess as a citizen of india its my right and responsibility . i would like some action to be taken and matters cleared.

                    Thanking you

                    Bharti Airtel Ltd — Regarding balance Deduction

                    Hello,

                    Sub:- Regarding Balance deduction from My number [protected]

                    without my notice my mobile(:[protected]) is subscribed for hungama club and daily 5 rupees is getting deducted as far I know more than 25 rupees got deducted so far. When I contacted customer care 198 they are turned off that service refunded the money back and then again they activated that service on 30.10.2011 and deducted Rs 20.00 from my account and again called to 198 customer care and they refunded Rs 10 to my account.Now again that service is activated on 02.11.2011 and deducted Rs 10 from Account.Again I have Airtel customer care 198 on 03.11.2011 they taken the request and canceled that service and refunded that Rs 10.00 .We have so many complaints on this hungama club and this is happening to me for the 4th time. Please stop these crazy things and do not waste the time and money and I want know without our permission or notice how you are doing those kind of activities. If we are asking to customer care representative regarding this issue they are saying that happening from you end.I need the clarification on this
                    I hope you will resolve this issue asap to stop further deduction and I hope you will revert the amount.

                    Once again I am telling you that I have never subscribed for this service and even no one will use my mobile.

                    Thanks,

                      Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

                      I have submitted the required documents and received the sim card from Triplican Airtel office, once activated and used for 2 weeks, i lost the mobile & barred the sim card by calling to customer care. Then waited for 2 weeks to get the duplicate sim, but due to non availability of stock i was asked to go to Parrys Airtel office. I submitted the document again and got the duplicate sim by paying Rs. 25. They informed me saying it will be activated with in 24 hours, but they did not do it, when called it was informed to me it will take 1 week, but did not activated at all. After 2 weeks again they asked me to submit the documents for activation of sim. After submision of documents , with in 24 hours only incoming calls facility could be availed, but not able to make outgoing calls. The recored messaging is saying your line has been temporarly suspended for non submission of the documents. When i call one person speaks only in tamil which i could not understand since i am from out side of tamilnadu state , i asked her to transfer the call to other executive she transfers unwillingly which disconnects after few seconds after repeadtly calling for 5 to 6 times. When i called their manager he never picks up the call. ( Manager cell no is [protected]). It is a real pain to get the Airtel connection in Chennai unlike other places, They are not professional at all, they need to speak in english like in Karnataka state to cater to outsiders too.Some of the staff is not at all cooperative. Could you kindly help me in getting the connection as soon as possible. Thanks & warm regards, Don Stuart ( Mangalore cell no. + 91 [protected]& mai id: [protected]@hotmail.com)

                      The delay in activating is not acceptable, the staff itself has informed me saying it will be activated with in 24 hours. Inspite of it only in coming calls are activated but not able to make calls. The recored voice is saying my line has been temporarily suspend due not submitting of documents.
                      The delay is not acceptable since the Airtel staff it self has informed me saying the delay has been happened from their side and it will be activated with in 24 hours.

                      Airtel Mobile — Barring of services in spite of submission of documents

                      Hi,

                      Airtel services has been barred on my mobile[protected] for want of documentation inspite of me submitting my passport, pancard, photo, company id copies as documents.

                      The Airtel showroom in koramangala (called Airtime services) verified the documents and agreed everything was in order and provided me an acknowledgement. The services were barred after this happened. When I tried contacting the customer care, they were very rude and did not provide a response as to why the services were barred.

                      I checked with the showroom again yesterday and was again confirmed that all docs. are correct and they confirmed that the documents were also logged with Airtel central office and the services would be restored. But the services are yet to be restored.

                      I will get important calls and now I am not sure what damages this would do to my career beacuse of this irresponsible behaviour by Airtel.

                      Please help.

                      Thanks and Regards,
                      Vinod Prabhakar

                          God & his saints help you if your Airtel dth conks out - or, as in my case, u move ur installation. My customer no is [protected]. My service request nos: 4435335 "Video Problem"; 4468043 "Installation Related"; 4490016 "Video Problem"; 4502848 "Engineer Related" have been hanging in midair for the last one week. When I called the mobile no mentioned in the SMS, the pelnipotentiary at the other end asks me to call up another pleni... who tells me to call another etc., thereby enlisting me as a virtual backend worker for the great Airtel Globocorp. Consumer complaint graciously notes down grievance & gives deadline by which complaint will be attended to. But when the deadline passes (and nothing happens), the grievance is "closed successfully". In fact I have been forbearing as there is an existing digital cable service available to me with channels that Airtel doesn't have - like Diva, News9 (B'lore), Daystar etc.

                            Respected Sir/Madam,

                            My name is Tejal Patil, i was using wireless Internet services of Airtel with mobile number [protected]. I used to connect it to my laptop with their data card.
                            The data-card was priced Rs. 3000. On top of it, they made me pay extra Rs. 500 in the name of Deposit and FALSELY promised that it'd be fully adjusted against my first 5 monthly bills (Rs. 100 per month).
                            I'll list my complaints and grievances here on:
                            1) They didn't make any adjustments in the monthly bills as promised. And the deposit is not yet returned.
                            2) Upon complaint of pt.1 to the Airtel authorities they simply denied that and stated that there wasn't any such scheme.
                            3) Now, when I asked them to discontinue the services, they sent me a Legal Notice under Sections 403, 405, 406 and 420 for unpaid bills which I'm ready to pay after deducting the deposit amount.

                                    Airtel — Disconnection pain

                                    I have requested Airtel to disconnect my broaband on 24th August because my broadband is not working since 3rd May. despite repeated complaints and follow-ups to fix. Even the disconnection request got closed on 19th september, without disconnecting and a bill of 1300 was sent to me. I have not been able to use broadband since 3rd of may and have paid around 6000 Rs cause bill kept generating.

                                    I have written to airtel appellate and ombudsperson with no restrain. Today after raising a re-disconnection request, I'm being told that no waiver would be given as i did not mention land line which was given as a package with broadband. I was also told on phone that verbal communication holds no value and unless written on an email we will not entertain. For evertything I'm being asked to produce a writen proof. The appellate officer hangedup the phone threatning do what you want but unless you show me in writing that I asked for complete disconnection of broadband and phone no waiver will be achieved where as the same guy raised a disconnection request for me, all relevant emails attached. 6 months of torture, this is the worst company in terms of customer care.My contact number is [protected]. Is there someone who can help I plead...please save me. I'm not allowed to attacch emails, who ever contacts, I will provide emails

                                      Airtel — Sms Offer error

                                      I normally use the 33rs sms pack offer which gives me 300 sms per day for 10 days. For the past one week i've been charged after the second day from my recharge. It is very frustrating because i already filed a complaint on 7th of this month(sep) and they told me on 10th that it had been resolved. But the problem continues and my sms are being charged. I request airtel to do the required at the earliest. My number is [protected].

                                        Address: West Bengal

                                        I had approached to Airtel ofr one Post-paid connection. One Mr, Ajay (Mob no. : [protected]) came to me & collected the rquired documents. He also gave me one SIM card (SIM no. :[protected]) on last 12/11/2010. He also gave me one new connection no. (No. : [protected]) against that SIM. He said that the new connection will be activated within 15/11/2010. But. it is still not activated and to my surprise, he is not picking up my calls for last three days. Neither he has shown any urge to contact me & discuss the reason for this delay.

                                        I am highly surprised & shocked by the service of such a reputated mobile service provider like "Airtel".
                                        If the service is like that while taking a new connection, then I can't immagine what will be afterwards....
