THIS IS A COPY OF THE MAIL FOR WHICH WE DIDN'T RECEIVE A SOLUTION UP TO THIS DATE FOR WHICH WE ARE SUFFERING FROM PAST 3 MONTHS
we possess all the relevant complaint numbers

Dear All,
I am TVN TEJASWI holding a airtel
connection([protected]) from last 4 years with the below mentioned as billing
address
Do.no. 43-3-47/10, flat no S-2 , Bobby Enclave, Railway new colony,
Visakhapatnam,
Andhra pradesh, Pin- 530016.

Today I am here to you regarding the bills not being handed over to us from
past 3 months and we came to know that these bills were given to some 3rd party
with a forgery signature. regarding this we have been spoken to airtel customer
care services 121 hundreds of times but there was no response on this matter.
DETAILS:

1. From may 1st to june 1st our we were out of station, and on may 21th we came
to know that our may month bill has been handed over to some third person named
(KOMALI)on 11th may as per the statement of CCS of airtel where as we don't
have any person named as above in our apartment.
And as per the words of our watchman he din't receive any
letter.
And the same thing has been informed to visakhapatnam manikantha Courier
incharge Mr. satyanarayana and asked him for clarification but he was being
very rude with us no reply from him.
COMPLAINT NUMBER FOR THIS IS 32375157.


2. Up on complaining airtel CCS has informed us that they had send a duplicate
bill on 25th and the same was received by watchman's wife named (BANGARI),
where as her name is not the same what you have mentioned and that was also we
did not received.
COMPLAINT NUMBER FOR THIS IS 32773241.

3. And on june 5th we found 6 duplicate copies of the bill in our letter box
that to delivered from the POSTAL DEPARTMENT .

4. And on june 15th up on asking for the bill (dates of 5th may to 4th june)
to one old courier boy from manikantha services he has stated that our bill is
not with him, after that we had called to CC for the clarification on 18th we
came to know that the bill has been delivered to ONE OF THE FAMILY MUMBER but
where as we din't receive any letter.
and for us CC informed that they are dispatching a
duplicate bill on 18th itself and we will receive the same by 25th.
And on 23rd june 2010 Mr.satyanarayana courier services came with a
original bill and with a small slip for acknowledge signature and upon asking
for the data sheet he responded in a very rude manner that this is the only
data sheet we have to sign on this. And we asked for the duplicate bill he
refuse to handover.

5. And on june 18th we have placed a request to stop ITEMIZED AND PAPER BILL
from this month onwards and send to EBILL. and the same request has
been registered from june 20th to july 24th.
For which we have received the message that our request has been registered.

6. AND this month on ie; july 30th means bill dating (june 5th to july4th) we
have received a DUPLICATE BILL that to not through Courier but with
a GOVERNMENT POST STAMP with ITEMIZED BILL dropped in my letter box.
And on 30th july we have called to 121 and 126 for the clarification
as per their statement airtel CC has not sent any type of BILL , So now we
require clarification for all the above.

NOTE: As per our observation there is a problem with airtel Customer Care team
who are not responding properly for any issues and regarding bills are being
handed over to some third party at our Residence.
Is there any any problem with airtel or with courier.
And these type of Malpractice had started between 22th may to 30th may means
the executives on duty on these dates.

For all the above we require clear details in written and I want a courier
person to come to my residence and clarify the problem that to whom he has
submitted and copy of third party duplicate signature.
I hope the above said problem to be solved as early as possible for a good
and smooth relation between us.
Hoping a wise solution for this with full clarity.

I purchased Airtel's trial offer for 3 months, in last week of June. After that an engineer surveyed the area around my home to fix the dish. Due to some problem with my neighbors, we were not allowed to fix the dish on the roof. As there were no other place to fix the dish, i requested for disconnection of the service. This was done in the last week of June/first week of july.

Till now, i haven't received the amount back in my account from Airtel. I have made numerous calls to Airtel's customer care and talked to supervisor Neha Jain who told me that she's sent an email to nodal office to settle the charges and gave me this email address and a phone number of some Mr.Daya Krishna[protected]. The number seems to out-of-order.

IT'S MORE THAN A MONTH NOW SINCE I DISCONNECTED THE CONNECTION AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE MY MONEY BACK.

WHERE SHOULD I GO?

I am a customer of Air tel prepaid service. My outgoing call has been barred since last one week.i submitted my documents again but my service has not been resumed yet.
i called to customer care many a times but didn't get the positive result.i am facing problem.i had not expected such poor service by Air Tel....

I am not sure if this is an authorised forum to discuss and what are the impact and response I can expect. I am using Airtel blackbery service. I got my account deducted by Rs 899 for the month of July-Aug. But after 10 days of service it got deactivated and it is 6 days since I am calling up customer care support for help but this is not getting resolved and they giving bogus time frames and reasons. It seems since the service provider is physically persence is not there and the complaints are raised through phone it is not at all getting resolved and hoing unheard. I am reaching out for justice. Appreciate if you could help me with resolution to this concern and do not allow service providers to take consumers for granted and the consumer rights are protected.

Dear Sir,

This is Leeroy Fernandes and my airtel mobile number: [protected] . Since 2010 i am the one of most important airtel customer. Previously i am a honest customer and regularly i paid my post paid bills you chek up my payments records also for your reference.we have received on receipt No[protected] Ammount 1520 Rs. in your side From last month 24/06/2010...pls disconnect this nomber. but we have received again bill for your office 382.74 Rs bill no[protected] .pls check it.

I requested Airtel customer care to shift connection from New Gupta Colony to Model Town on 26th July they said it will be done in 3 days, but they don't do that...every time they say it will shifted today by evening...In evening they say wait for tomorrow...shifting will be done...and nothing happen again...

I am waiting for a while than i will go for consumer forum in ashok vihar to file case against him...


All are cheater giving wrong commitment, the executive don't know either gossip and giving wrong commitment..

My Bharti mobile connection (91-11-[protected]) in name of Ami Kapur is as old as approximately 7 years. Upon my request to convert the connection from post paid to prepaid, I was asked to re-submit the KYC documents and in absence of same the account was deactivated for 48 hours.

The concern here are as follows:
1) why should the two division within Bharti not corrdinate within to complete their KYC records
2) Even if re-submission was necessary to support service provider as big as Bharti, why should it take 48 hrs from recipt of resubmitted cos to reactivate the deactivated connection.

Trust anyone would appreciate with incrasing financial dependency on technology and communication, the break of of 48 hrs can cause considerably adverse financial impact on the consurmer and indifference of company's staff towards same is very disappointing - specially from a company of repute like Bharti Airtel Limited.

I didn’t expect these kind of things from such a big firm.
I don't know which link i clicked or visited for that i got 2 to 3 times messages that "You have been renewed for GamesClub subscription service. you have been charged Rs.99". like this in the month of July total of 500 amount got debited which is totally ridiculous. Upon calling they told that you have downloaded these games but i don't understand how can someone download games in just 1-2 seconds, they even told me to be careful to click on any link which again doesn't make any sense. Once they told me that we can send you the games which shows that they are forcefully giving services. They are doing terrible marketing.
Now recently i.e. on 31st July i got a message "You have been renewed for bloomberg subscription service. you have been charged Rs.3"
I had a very bad time with them, this time they kept me waiting for more than 5 mins and the call was being charged.

I had purchased a new airtel simcard from Airtel customer care centre, Chakala, Mumbai on Thursday, 29 July 2010. They told me it would be active by friday, 30 July 2010. However, today its Monday 02 August, 2010 and it is still not active. I have tried to call customer care and the representative there. However, there is no information available with the customer care.
Personal trips to this shop is difficult as this area is under a flyover construction and has constant traffic jams.

Since I lost my mobile, I got a duplicated SIM card on Saturday, 31st July 2010. I had been told that the SIM card will be activated in 4 hours time.

Today, its 2nd August 2010 and its still not be activated. I visited the Airtel Shop couple of times in Vidyaranyapura. When ever I go there, they said the same thing. It will be activated in 2 hours.

Also, I tried calling the customer care number from another post paid connection on [protected], the representatvie tells it will be activated in 4 hours but, no change happened till now.

I am very frustrated with Airtel's customer service. I am missing so many important calls.

I am Prabha Khimsura residing in Chennai. I am writing to you today in regards to what has happened to me in the name of Airtel. I got an sms on my mobile on 26/07/2010, stating that my mobile number has won an Airtel Dish TV settop box and a DVD player and asking me to log on to www.airteldigitaldish.com and register my name and address. Once I had done that, I received another sms the next day confirming my registration and asking me to login again before 12.30 p.m. When I did, I was asked to deposit Rs. 440 in Punjab National Bank with the account holder's name as Mr. Swapan Das, Senior Executive From Mumbai, along with his account number [protected], and to fax the receipt to this number[protected]. It also said that once I fax them the copy of the receipt one representative will contact me within 4 hours and that my gift will be delivered at my door step with no extra cost on 29/07/2010. I had done things as instructed, but no one has called me yet with regards to the gift. I also tried to log on to the site but it seems to have been suspended or blocked now.

I am really shocked to realize that I have been cheated. I would like to ask you if this whole thing was indeed related to Airtel India, that for publicity they are doing such things or its someone else who is doing such things in the name of Airtel???? In both cases your company loses the credibility it has. It concerns me as how easily people get cheated..

Please look into this matter and take action against the wrongdoers. I also would like you to inform people about such fraudulent things happening and if possible please do add this in the commercials so that the public is aware and no one else is cheated. I would like to hear from you regarding what action has been taken against the fraudsters.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Greeting from Don Bosco Navjeevan.
Sir i would like to bring to your notice the gross misconduct and apathy of your staff at the Airtel Office, Near Ambala Club., Rai Market, Ambala Cantt., Ambala.
Sir we are running a project of Haryana State Aids Control Organisation in District Ambala working with drug addicts towards the prevention of spread of HIV and AIDS. We had approached you said office on the 14th of July 2010 for getting a landline and broadband connection. We were asked to pay a sum of Rs. 1000/ towards security for the same and fill in the necessary documents. We did so and we were assured that the connection would be installed inn 2-3 days. With this assurance we left the centre.
After 3 days we approaced your office your office and were told that due to the floods in Ambala a technical snag had occured and it would take another 2-3 days to rectify. We then visited you office again on the 21st of July 2010 and we told that still the problem would take a couple of days. We the requested Ms. Ruchika ([protected]) that we were waiting to get our Information material printed and required the landline number to be printed before for the conveinience of all the clients/patients. We were given the number as[protected] and assured that the connection would be made available to us in a couple of days.
We then went ahead and got our information material printed and displayed the above mentioned number in all our pamphlets which are more that 13,000 in number and cost Rs. 10,000/ (Copy of bill attached).
Subsequently we have been now told by Ms. Pooja ([protected]) and Ms, Ruchika that it is not possible to give us a land line connection and that they cannot do anything about it.
Sir, it is rather unfortunate that we have to go through such mental torture and our now in possession of over 13,000 pamphlets with the incorrect telephone number printed on it. Sir i would certainly appreciate if you could take up the matter with your staff and ensure that the connection in made available to us, or else give us a refund for the entire amount spent on the pamphlets, failing which we will be forced to go to the consumer court with our grevience.
Looking forward to your help and cooperation
Thank you

I have registered Airtel DND - Do Not Disturb Service on 30th May 2010 and my registration number is I[protected]. I was told that it will be activated within 45days. First question is why should they keep disturbing for 45days by their advertising recorded phone calls and service and Airtel Blog SMSes ?

I co-operated and waited till 45 days, but they didnt stop calling me twice or thrice a day for their advertising and 4-5 smses. I finally called up Customer Service Executive, which charges 50paise for 3mins, it has to be free of cost. They told my AirTel DND service has been activated since 14th July 2010. But still they will take my complaint. After this also the advertising calls and smses didn't stop. Finally I talked to Sachin, a Customer Care Executive from Airtel on24th July 2010 at 12:22PM, this call costs me 2Rs, means I talkd with him for 4mins. He told that it will stop from next day. But it didnt stop.

I have recieved following advertising calles from AirTel:-

23/7/2010 10:15AM, From: AIRTEL BLOG: Invitation to see John's AirTel Blog
23/7/2010 11:45AM, From TM-Midnight: Midnight babes AirTel Service Message
23/72010 1:30PM, From: 55435: Chocolate Babes AirTel Service Message
23/7/2010 2:42PM, From: 56060: Kingfisher Airlines models on AirTel Service Message

24/7/2010 12:13PM, From: [protected], Recorded Call from AirTel
24/7/2010 12:39PM, From: AIRTEL, Choose a Scheme That Suits Your Need.[This message I recieved after talking to Customer Care Executive at 12:22PM]

I recieved an SMS From AZ-Service, on 29th July 2010, at 2:23 PM, saying We have resolved your complaint number[protected]. But it has not been resoled and I a getting regular advertising calls from AirTel. I recieve regular calls from+91-[protected], twice or thrice a day, minimutwice they call me. I am fedup of this AIRTEL service.

This type of advertising calls and smses sucks a lot I dont have time to entertain such calls. I am Research Fellow at IIT Bombay, and I have lots o[censored]nkown people calling me, so many times when I recieve a call is an AIRTEL's advertise. And to write such a big complaints has taken lot of time from my schedule unnecessarily. Also every time I call Customer Care Executive, they waste my time by asking irrelevant questions like what was the subject of SMS or what advertisement that call had. I reject the call soon i hear a recorded voice, I dont have time to listen to your topic of ADVERTISEMENT. ALSO THEY ASK WHO CALLED YOU WHICH NUMBER, WHAT NUMBER YOU GOT SMS? IDEOTS CANT YOU SEE THE RECORDS ON YOUR COMPUTER, WHEN I SAY MY NUMBER?? WHY WASTING MY TIME??

I DONT KNOW WETHER MY EFFORTS IN THIS WEBSITE WILL SERVE MY PURPOSE AND STOP THIS CALLS. BUT AIRTEL SERVICES SUCKS A LOT AND THEY ARE MORE ADVERTISEMENT ORIENTED THAN SERVING THE PURPOSE OF COMMUNICATION.

AT LAST I WILL THROW AWAY AIRTEL CARD AND STOP USING THEIR SERVICES. I DONT GIVE DAMN TO SUCH SERVICES PROVIDER.

Dear Airtel,

Subject: Why one should use your service.


This is to inform you that I have recently purchase a new airtel postpaid connection from Initiative Data add-9-D, Shringar Nagar (Adj Avadh Hospital), Alambagh Lucknow. At that time I have submitted proof of my photo ID (PAN Card) and Address (photocopy of electricity bill) along with one photo with that form. Inspite of submitting all the necessary documents my outgoing calls have been barred without giving any prior information that too on Saturday so that I have to wait till Monday to resume my service. Don't you think this is crime to make person phone less in this Information era.

My phone has been barred on Saturday evening without any prior notice, I came to know when I have to make a urgent call. Than only I came to know you fool you have been cheated by Airtel.

The customer care people say your phone has been barred due to address verification. Now there is my question, if my address proof was wrong than why they have provided me the connection and the staff you have appointed over there are not costumer friendly. Instead of doing customer assistance they all are involved in gossips and jokes among them self.

If the person is doing address verification was unable to find the address, should have been contacted on my number. Instead of doing this, I have received a call from airtel on 29 Jul 2010 asking that please give me you electricity bill no. I have told that the bill is not with me please call me after 10 min I will let you know but I didn't receive any call further. and outgoing calls have been barred on 31 Jul 2010. Since than I have to go to the PCO to make a call and force to beg others phone in emergency situation.

What if I face a life threatening situation and i wont able to make a life saving phone call.




Please give me the clarification for barring my outgoing calls without giving me prior intimation.
How you say yourself a most admired brand in India??????????????????????????????????????????????

Respected Sir,

This is my first experience with your DTH service and worst experience for me as a customer with any of the organisation. I applied for DTH service 5 days ago. At that point in time sales people were very nice. But person who was supposed to come in a day to collect that money came 2 days late. Then i was told that installation will be done in 48 hours. Its being more than 50 hours noone came to my place. When tried to confirm the status with same people in Mumbai call canter people were very rude. Were not even ready to give me their names. My calls have been disconnected 5 times i am trying the same number [protected] sine 10.30 am. Two of them gave me their names Nikhad a girl and a boy donot remember his name. When i said i want to talk to any supervisor. They said no manager is available and they disconnected the call. One person talked to me as a supervisor after conversation he said he is an agent an cannot transfer the call to supervisor. All people were rude, unprofessional and had casual behavior. everyone of them advise me that i will receive a call in half an hour but didnot receive any call. i am totally fed up and have spent more than 100 Rs on phone calls to them. the i got another number of Noida center. executive named Sonia tried to help me and provided me a number 12148 saying they donot have any record for Rs 999 plan. When i talked to executive on this number. Again my calls got disconnected twice around 12.30pm after introduction. Then associate advised that i will receive a call n two hours and by the end of the day it will get installed. I have not even started the service and this is the treatment i have been given. Please provide me solution. Now the only option left to me is that i should go to consumer forum with Payment receipt and call details and should ask for all calls recordings from your end.

Thanks,
Gaurav Bhanot
