Hi All,

My name is Wasim Khan and I from Chennai. I am using Airtel DTH svc from past six months. Yesterday (05/09/10) I got a message to my registered Airtel mobile# from Airtel DTH svc stating that I have won a Airtel Digital set top box free with 2yrs of free connection and Rs.2399 gift hampers absolutely free. In that message I was advised to register my name and address at www.airteldigitaldish.com on the same day before 12:00 AM to get the free gift and Airtel DTH connection.

The following day (06/09/10) I received another message stating that I need to pay customer svc tax of Rs440/-only at the nearest State Bank of India branch in the favor of Kartick Pal, Ac#[protected] and also to fax the receipt to fax#[protected] on 06/09/10 before 3:30 PM or else I wont get the SET top Box.

This raised a concern and alarm whether this message were true or not. I quickly browsed Airtel digital dish on Google and to my surprise I found that lots of innocent people where cheated from this message. I request the Cyber Crime team to investigate and take severe action on these people.

I am also attaching the screen shots which I took from Airtel digital dish website which I copied as a proof for my prize. I should thank god now that this proof will help cyber crime to find the culprits

Thanking you,
Wasim Khan. A

I am using prepaid sim card of Airtel (Mob No.[protected]. Some services are automatically get activated on my number & payment is deducted from my sim account.
After inquiry in customer care I will get to know these services are activated by me. But if I had activated these services why could not I get any massage from Airtel about activation of services.
This was also happened in last month August 2010 that time they refund me, but now they are not refunding me. If I am not using services & not activated by me why I could pay for this?

I have Airtel DTH connection (Big mistake!). Most of the time it does not work and following message is displayed on TV screen:

"Inserted view card is not an Airtel view card or it may not be inserted properly. Please insert a valid viewing card correctly again.
Error Code: 2"

Even after several complains, they do not resolve the issue till now. Worst part is that, they mark and complain as resolved without taking any action on this.

I am also suffering from service problem mentioned above and from past 10 days my tv is dumb because of your worst service

I am tired of complaining and still there is no resolution.

he promises he will send somebody but nothing happens

4,I have given a pr-paid amount for last 3 months

feet distance and put in cable but failed to give permanent connection
7, Instead they have given temporary connection from nearby neighbours
house by suspending the cable between poles


I have been requesting Senthil - Mobile no[protected] He just does not
care.

If i fail to get response in next 2 days, I will cut and paste this
complaint in Google Consumer forum where 100000 people can view and
understand about Airtel

With due respect I Arpit Asthana would like to bring to your notice some malpractice being done on your name. I am a loyal customer of Airtel since last 2 yrs. My prepaid mobile number is +[protected]. As I have moved to Pune for my job, I wanted to continue using your service.
I along with my 2 other friends went to Airtel Exclusive Outlet located in VishalNagar, Pune named Apeksha Communication on 2nd, Sept,2010 (Thursday). We chose to purchase 3 friends card for which we were asked to pay Rs. 50 per card(Actual MRP of the friends prepaid SIM is Rs. 34). But we were asked to give extra Rs. 16 over this MRP.
When as a literate citizen we asked the reason for this overcharging, we got excuses like ' The Airtel company is not providing card, we are purchasing it from other dealers'. Further said, ' If you want to buy these cards then do it, else we dont have the time to justify ourself '. These statements were shocking for us when hearing it from person handling one of Airtel Exclusive Outlets. Other customers at that place we surprised too. We could have opted for other service providers like Vodafone or Idea but we wanted to continue with you. So still having faith in your company and service, we are bringing this instance to your notice.
Please take appropriate actions against these persons under the law because they are making undue profit at the cost of Airtel image. And if its possible please help us get back the over charged amount of Rs. 16 multiplied by 3 from those unscrupulous persons handling your exclusive outlet in Vishal Nagar, Pune named Apeksha Communication. And think of the illeterate people who are still unaware of this malpractice.

Our Names, New SIM CARD Number, Mobile Number of the new SIM are mentioned below:

I had requested vide complaint no 24596 to discontinue the facility of Broadband on my Phone no [protected]. On 3rd Sept '10 when I contacted Customer Service center to find out why my outgoing calls have been barred , I was given to understand that other than discontinuing Broadband my Telephone rental is seized with )D barring done .

This is not fair as I requested for only discontinuing the Broadband with continue service of landline on the earlier plan .

Pl look into the above complain and restore the outgoing call facility on my phone no [protected] .
