I had purchased my card from gujarat and currently i am in banglore.
i dont know what to do.


Thanks & Regards,
Hardik Parikh.

AIRTEL THE BIGGEST CHEATINGBAAZ COMPANY IN THE INDUSTRY!

They
1) Beg to you to get their connection
2) Make you beg to disconnect a connection !


I am going in for

1) A petition the High Court and,

2) A PIL in the Supreme Court against unnecessary harassment of innocent customer in which I will make TRAI a party.

Just go through the communication details as under with them.

Dear Haritha M / S. Vinoda,

Your Customer retention executive (Name : Abhishek Das) had visited my
place on 14/9/2010 and seen the equipment return note and collected a
fresh application for disconnection. I have mentioned the details of
my situation in the note. He said your problem is clear and will be
solved immediately once he updates the system.

Yesterday I got a call from your local billing department, they stated
that one of my old bill for the Month of April, 2010 is due and later
on they said it is ok and I have no dues. I have informed your billing
department that I have cleared all bills upto May, 2010 i.e. the Month
in which my instrument was picked up from my home.

I still receiving calls from your automated voice calling system
reminding me to clear my dues, which I don't have.

If you have any reconciliation statement confirming your claim please
send the same otherwise don't put in irresponsible claims without
proof. Please let me know the way it can be resolved in writing.

Please treat this not as a final notice after which I will be forced to
approach the appropriate authorities for legal recourse. I am giving
you 7 working days from today to revert on this.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Yours truly,

Sandip Pal

Subject: New connection
To: "[protected]@airtel.in" <[protected]@airtel.in>


Dear sir,
I have applied for new connection via 12148.

Mr. LAXMAN had guided me for product AIRTEL HD. Had ordered it on
SATURDAY I.e 11/9/2010 & made payment via credit card.
Now according to Mr.LAXMAN & commitment he made was same day
installation. And failed with this commitment. I had thrice asked him
that will installation be done by today EVENING. And he repeatedly told
yes.

I talked to 12148 many times and told will do installation on
12/9/2010. & was nt installed.

yet as on today I.e 13/9/2010 installation is not done. I hve called
in morning for the same & talked with Mr.NILESH. He told me will check
status & call u within a hour. Since i didnt received any call after 3
hrs I called again. The representative didn't told me name & whn I
inquired about my new connection he talked rudely tht it will be
installed & told me not to call again and again for the same and
disconnected call.

Since after this attitude of AIRTEL dth personal, I thnk eirther AIRTEL
have no interest to sell product & is only interested in harassment &
thinks customers are their PEONS.

Hope to resolve this matter at earliest.

Rgds.

Dear sir,
REMINDER2

WITH REFERENCE TO ABOVE MAIL.
I HAD CONTACTED 12148 & HAD CONVERSATION WITH MR.NILESH. AND HAD
GUIDED ME TO CONTACT DISTRIBUTOR IN AREA. I HAD PLACED ORDER WITH
AIRTEL 12148 ONLINE AND WHY I SHOULD CONTACT DISTRIBUTOR.

SECONDLY I HAVE CONTACTED DISTRIBUTOR. AND DISTRIBUTOR TOLD ME THAT
COMPANY IS NOT SENDING HD SET TOP BOX, AND MISGUIDING CUSTOMERS & FOR
IT DISTRIBUTOR HAVE TO SUFFER AND HEAR WORDS.

REQUESTED TO REVERT AT EARLIEST.

RGDS.

((((since above mail was not replied i wrote to nodal officer))))


Dear sir,

I have sent above mail at [protected]@airtel.in

Airtel customer care 12148 is misguiding me. you can go through above
mail and oblige.

At time of payment and all commitment is made for same day installation.
*after payment*
while contacting on 12148 Mrs. Reshama is telling it takes 72hrs for
installation.
Other representative Mr.Nilesh tell it takes 48hrs for installation.
on next call another representative tells you have to contact you
nearest dealer for it. (WHY SHOULD I CONTACT DELEAR IN THIS CASE AS PURCHASE PROCEDURE IS DONE ONLINE VIA NO.12148)
Then also I had contacted dealer and told we are running out of stock of AIRTEL HD
box.

This thing of airtel is really very very hilarious. You are requested to
do needful at your end.

your cooperation in the matter will be highly appreciated.

Many Thanks.
Viral. Khatri.


{{{{On 17/9/2010 FOLLOWING MAIL TO NODAL OFFICER & [protected]@airtel.iN }}}}

Dear sir,

I am not able to talk to Mr.Gopal. Suryavanshi (GUJARAT AIRTEL DTH NODAL OFFICER).
He is always in meeting from last 7 days. As there representative responds.
On website there is a NO.[protected]. This is given as contact no. for Mr.Gopal but he is never at desk
from last week.

So my question, is a nodal officer appointed to server customers problem or to manage supplies of set top box?
as not able to do both....

Instead of him I had talk with Miss. Pinky. And was a worst thing. She
cannot understand problem.

And gives no of Mr.Narayan.([protected])
Mr.Narayan gives no. of Devang.([protected])
Mr.devang gives no. of Kripesh ([protected])
I HAD CALLED TO ALL THIS GYUS. And this thing goes on.

So I doubt that is this the thing for which nodal officer are appointed. (VERY POOR ASSISTANCE)
Its really a very very hilarious thing about airtel irresponsible officers.

Hope nodal officer Mr.gopal. Revert to this mail and gets problem solve.

Many thanks.
Viral. Khatri.





Dear sir,

If there is no HD box with AIRTEL they should not take order.
And there should be system like giving booking numbers.
When booking no. comes then only credit card should be punched for transaction. Why does AIRTEL needs advance payment for delayed services.

You are requested to look into the matter and install HD box at earliest. As I have seen online there are many problems related to late installation.

SOME RESOLUTION SHOULD BE PASSED FOR IT.
Instead of misguiding customers.

As this was my worst experience.
I would not suggest other to buy AIRTEL DTH.

Hope my problem to be solved at earliest.

Rgds.

REQUESTED TO REVERT ON MY MAIL

Sir/Madam.
Recently, i received a highly over rated bill , on my airtel broadband connection. I expect it to be 220, but i got a bill of RS. 2500 . The everyday usage list on the bill is completely fake, as have never used this connection since last 6 months almost ( All my past cancellation requests and also the last bills reflect the 0 usage). As since last 6 months, I am using my MTNL connection for my internet requirements. However keeping the airtel connection just to fall back upon in case there is some problem with MTNL lines.
After getting the overrated bill, i immediately (on 11.sep.2010) called the customer care to resolve it ( complaint no.:[protected]. They replied me to solve it only uptil 18 sep 2010

I highly doubt the problem is related to either faulty lines or modem. So with the fear of getting an overrated bill again, and so not waiting for 18 sep 2010, i also, requested to cut off the internet lines with an immediate effect. ( Request: 1191489 ). However this request is constantly being ignored, and even after launching my request to end up this faulty connection on 11.sep.2010, no officer has yet visited me to solve the issue. I fear that their delay would end up in charging me with an unaffordable amount by 18 sep 2010 with a fake usage list again.
After 6 days of waiting i got a call from Airtel (17 sep. 2010), that they have come to the conclusion that the bill generated is ok. On asking, what was the process through which they came to this conclusion, they just told me that it can't be disclosed. I was surprised that after 6 days of waiting, no airtel officer ever came to check the lines, or modem, and they just report me back that the bill is ok.
I even requested them to provide me the website list ( as i am sure, it must be fake, as i never used the internet connection ) they were unable to do so.
As i discussed more, they just reopened the case.Sir/Madam, they have already taken 6 days for this, and yet they have not solved my problem. I am sure, after 6 days, they would again report me with the same declaration, without even looking into the case. They are delaying this case, and i may recieve my next inflated bill ( However i have already told them to cut off this connection at 11 sep only).

Sir/ Madam, what i need is only the list of websites which according to them i have accessed in this month. With their attitude and services i don't hope any information regarding for what they are billing me such a high amount, when the fact is my internet consumption was almost nil, as it is since last 6 months.

Please help me in resolving this issue.
thanks

I have recharged my mobile phone number with Rs 50 only through online. The amount was deducted from my bank account but never got recharged in my phone. I have given 7 complaints in written to the nodal officer as well, but still not have resolved.

It is a best example of the pathetic service that Airtel offers to its customers.

Moreover when i called the customer care they cut Rs 3 from my account for talking to them and registering a complaint.

Moreover the customer services reps think they are doing a favor by answering our calls. They forget they are getting salary because we are using their services. One rep told me it is not possible to recharge Rs 50 online and only Rs 350 can be recharged online. That bugger even cannot understand or did not understand deliberately and kept on telling Rs .350 continuously. Looks like he was screwed by his boss that day :). Anyways the problem remains the same and still not resolved after 30 days of the incident. Looks like the INdian Police department is performing better than these corporate crooks.

I recommend, do not use the so-called online facility for anything for these corporates. They say it is for the user benefit, but it is actually a strategy to cut cost for them and pocket the consumer's money. Shame on the Financial Auditors also who audit these company's accounts and give a clean chit. If Company like Satyam can do frauds, why not Airtel.

Wake up consumers!

Recently I have moved to London for business visit. Before coming to abraod I recharged my Airtel mobile - [protected] with 2000/ Rs to ensure I will work in roaming.

But after week I landed in London , I got error message on my mobile saying SIM REGISTRATION FAILED. I called Airtel customer care and even sent email to customer care but didnt get any response from them.

One fine day , I got reply from customer care that my number has been disconnected and I will have to for new connection. Without any information airtel disconnected my number and made it available for sale which is not legal.

Can you please look into this and let me know if I can get my number and rupees back.

I was using 0.facebook.com in my mob as it indicates in both facebook website and in mobile browser stating tat its free.
But aft aug 31 thy were charging me. like around 10 rupes and more of every time ..
tis website is a full text version adn still dono hw it took tat much KB's..
and tis is really a wicked answer i got from airtel customer care saying only the login page is free and if i login and enter inside thy'll charge..
for wtf thy give its free FB browsing in FB websites and even at the top of mobile browser i dono.. cheat.. !! lost many balance in tis..@

Requesting ID proof resubmission

Airtel is requesting me to submit my ID proof or else they will deactivate my number ([protected]).
I have received a call from Airtel, demanding me to resubmit my id-proof also they told me that Mobile Sim Registration is not made to my number correctly. they told with some other name the actual registration is done.

So i have totally confused, also to verify this i have made a call to Airtel prepaid complaint - 198;

in that i have made a complaint that i have got a call, asking me id proof re-submission, but the customer support person told that all the documents submitted so far is clear, also i have verified the mobile sim registration is done in my name only.

i have given the complaint with the number in which i get the call from,

but still i am below getting message from AT-Airtel daily,

"Last chance to avoid disconnection. Last date extended, pls submit your document & form before 19-Sep. Also get Free 40 A2A minutes, pls ignore if sumitted already"

I am confused whether i have submit or not, if they have already then, why submitting again.

I am Biranchi Narayan Nayak. I am an AXIS Bank customer. And I have savings account with NetConnect facilities for Internet Banking.I am a prepaid AIRTEL customer. I have registered my Mobile number (AIrtel subscriber) on the Banks's website http://www.axisbank.com. Every time i do an online transcation, an SMS is being sent from the Bank to my mobile having the NETSECURE token. And using that token we perform our internet transaction.

But for few days i am not getting the NETSECURE token on my mobile phone , and most of the times the SMS reaches me after a long time by then the transaction would expire. But it is clearly mentioned in the Banking site that the SMS bearing the NETSEURE token would reach within 1 minute.

When I tried to contact the Airtel Customer Care (198), they were not able to give me satisfactory answers. I couldn't do the transactions on time, due to which i had to bear heavy penalty.

Please let me know what are the actions that i should take against the Mobile Service Provider and recovery my money.

Hello,

Please refer to the complaint below:
http://www.consumercomplaints.in/complaints/airtel-dth-c422897.html

I was told by the managers that the relocation will not be charged.

Why the hell should I pay you Rs. 300 when you have only partially provided the services.
The service provided was pathetic and I demand a refund.

Else I should take this matter forward legally.

regards,
anubhav

I recently changed my Airtel connection from prepaid to postpaid. In my plan I have 5000 SMS free and I am using GPRS 2GB @Rs.98. Till now I would have sent around 1500 SMS and I use facebook everyday in my mobile. In the unbilled amount they charge Rs.1 for every SMS and 30p/50Kb. My unbilled amount is now Rs.2200, still 6 days more to prepare the bill. I got a SMS telling "you to pay Rs.1500 now since your credit limit is Rs.1200". Then I spoke to customer care and the person told not to worry and he would revert it back. But today I got a SMS telling that the outgoing is barred.

Even after taking to the customer care executives and their manager, they told that this is their policy and I should have increased your credit limit. And I had no choice but to pay Rs.1500.

My question is if I use all the 5000 SMS (which are free as per the plan) and 2GB for internet (which is free as per 98 plan), the unbilled amount will be more than Rs.17,582(5000 + 12,582) but the actual billing would be Rs.349 as per plan. Even if I increase my credit limit to say Rs.10,000 in this case, these Airtel guys would then say that you have exceeded your credit limit and you need to pay Rs.10,000 immediately to unbar your connection. What is TRAI doing or is it unaware of this?? Stern action should be taken for service providers who cheat cheat their customers like this in the name of "policy".

This is in regard to the complain against my customer id:[protected]

My Air Tel DTH was again have problem regarding No Signal again within 6 month of changing Setup Box.

So i registered complain regarding it on[protected] and my complain no. is 3741264 and representative tell me that our engineer will resolved it within 24 Hour.

But after two days no one can come to solve the problem. so i again call them on 3rd Sept. so they said will forward ur complain and wait for 24 Hr.

Then again no one come then again i call customer care and they again said me the same so from last 16 days i am not geting any servise from Airtel DTH.

So you are kindly requested to resolved my problem as early as possible or take ur DTH system and return my money back, so i can buy new one from other company.

And also i am not able to seeing my TV from last 16 days so ur kindly requested to refund my 16 days money to my account till i dont get solution.

I am facing this problem third time before 6th month i had same problem and Airtel DTH was resolved after 3 complain to u and taking 2 month and also dont get refund of that 2 months.

Now u have to take Hard action against Air tel DTH servises.

Pls so ur kindly requested to provide my money back and i dnt want to use airtel dth anymore.

Due to this i cant able to see any news , any show , any serials, any cricket match etc. so Airtel DTH have to pay for this also.

If right now they will not get solution then plsssssss ban on Air Tel DTH connection and take hard action.

am from Hyderabad. My son joined at VIT, Vellore on 05.07.10. I have taken Airtel SIM card for my son with No.[protected] at VIT campus and paid Rs.865/ for SIM & Package. And My son submitted one photo, VIT ID Card & 10th Marks Memo. They told within one day it will be activated. The third day i.e. 07.07.10 when we asked for activation they asked to pay Rs.150/- for activation. We have paid Rs.150/- also. But till today ( 16.09.10) SIM not activated and nobody responding at VIT stall when we ask.

Suggest me what to do.

Airtel is requesting me to submit my ID proof or else they will deactivate my number ([protected]). They are demanding me to submit my proof frequently. i have submitted already 3 times and still they are demanding and they are not ready to accept my proof in emails and they need me to meet them in person and submit the proof. This is highly idiotic.....

The telecommunication companies these days are changing their policies in India at a fast track. They are loosing faith in customers and deviating more towards investing in smaller countries. These companies are in fact loosing ethics and lacking professionalism. This may be the result of their incompetent induction of professionals in different areas. which clearly indicate that these companies are in want of revenue at any cost. On the other hand they talk about Eco-green India, actually it is cost cutting at customer level, which saves money by not sending bills to the customer, May be this idea is noble if true. But it seems to be carrying an hidden agenda behind all this, about which a common customer is unaware of. The customers is the pillar of the company and the policies made by them these days are creating a huge gap between them and the customers. I think it will have a very bad impact in near future.Their employees are away from their job responsibilities. These scenarios may be present in other similar companies and i am sure you must be a victim of such things sometime,if you are a customer.These days these companies are working at a slowest speed and lack in making quick decisions to solve a customer problem. they have created lot's of division to improve the quality but they are unaware that the growth depends upon the slowest working division irrespective of the other divisions whether they are working fast. I am not a management guru, but i know that creating new business or buying other sick units, or small companies in small countries is NO Growth. You are only self satisfied since you are creating a dissatisfied customer's base on the other hand.

I am the victim of such circumstances with this companies being a old customer, i have observed many changes since the beginning at various levels even at the appellate or whether it's nodal level. I think there exist a great deal of communication gap among all levels and it seems that every employee is trying to save his/her skin whether he/she has to make false promises,lies, keeping customer in dark, changing policies with any intimation to the customers etc.

The only good step for the customer is to approach the Consumer Court , No doubt you can solve your issue, but why it happened? who created this discomfort for you & why? This is still a big question again, I wish they worked in ethical way and treated us like real customers instead of money making donkeys.
The top brass, the actuaries, the management gurus in these companies should realize this soon or it will be too late.


In my view point these big houses should be brought under RTI by the Government.

Hello sir,


I have been with airtel with the number for 3 months in this house and i have been with the number[protected] with stay and gain plan.And i have been informed that i would be charged 881 per month without using phone and i would be deducted with 100Rs from my 3rd month bill and if i am discontinuing the service i can get the remaining money back.And i have been told this from my welcome call and the sales man.after that i have called customer care and i have been given the same answer and i have been told the same by all.now i am in a position to vacate this house and i have checked to continue with the service there is no network in my permanent residence as per the feasibility check.so i cannot move the service there.so in order to cancel the service to know the procedures i called customer care then as per i am not satisfied from the answers i asked for a escalation manager and his name is harish and he told that i cannot get any money back from airtel as remaining one or something.then he asked sorry for the miscommunication.i dont want sorry this is not any relationship to ask sorry its money and you have to stick to your commitments and then why the same wrong info has been communicated through all the way then.i have spoken to the appellate as i cannot reach the nodal as his number always busy for more than 30 minutes and then as per the appellate request(Mahalakshmi) i am sending this mail.she asked me to get a call back request on this issue.please do the needy because i will not surrender the equipment if there is any negative answer because a person in your concern had told me that i can get the remaining amount as a cheque in 45 days to my permanent address.so i want this to be sorted out before i am cancelling you request as on oct 31.i want the active connection still oct 31.i want that to be disconnected on oct 31.i dont want to transfer ownership or this connection to my native where there is no network and i want the option that i have chosen and i have been committed for.and there is an apeallate number where i called in and i cant speak to manish singhai who is the appeallate but i have spoken to an idoit named Arvind who is very rude stated that they will take an legal action if not i am not paying the bill and airtel is not very transparent to the customers and i dont like the dominating answer by the appealate arvind and i want manish singhai the appealate to call me or else i will meet this issue through court.


This is the mail that i have sent to the appeallate and Airtel appeallate is manish singhai and i couldnt speak with him and i have spoken with the person called arvind he is very rude and said that money cant be refunded and then i said i cannot pay the bill then he said that legal action will be taken and he is threatening me stating that he cannot help Bharti Airtel is the second worst service provider next to BSNL.Indians are fooled by the service providers like this
