Dear Friends
MY CUSTOMER ID IS [protected]
I am writing you and warn u how a company like AIRTEL doing wrong commitments with their consumers
Please read all details from beginning to till date. On dated 18/5/2010 time 16:30hrs. I called at 12150 and enquired about DTH PLAN & TARRIF, at other end the person I spoken with is Pritam Singh he told me all details and when I told him that I will think and let him know later on he told me that since I am existing customer of Airtel, he has a very good DTH offer @ Rs. 999/- with 4 month subscription free of 162 channels. I found this very attractive and asked him how to proceed he told you can pay right now through Credit or Debit Card and I paid money thorough my ICICI Credit Card as he instructed me online. After payment he given me transaction ID No. 8844814 On 20/5/2010 the system installed at my place. Ok as he promised 162 channels, I found less but no complaint by me.

Now I am mentally tortured when I receipt a message from Airtel DTH on dated 12/13 June that your balance is such and expiry date is 18/6/2010 immediately after receiving this message I started contacting to Airtel customer care numbers i.e.198, 121, and 1800…. ……..And lastly one gentleman told u contact at 12148. I spoken on 14/5/10 on this no. and narrated my entire story at other end some one told me we will resolve this within 24 hrs or so. I could not note down his name on this date as I am confident because I am using Airtel mobile so long I never faced any problem.

On 15/6/2010 I again called at 12148. on 12:05 hrs and talk with lady named Meenakshi all details then she taken on line one Mr. Alfred he again listen my all story and said will get back on evening. Till date waiting his response.

On 16/6/2010 time 14:00 hrs. I call again at 12148 then phone attended by Shashikant I asked him about my query he disconnected the line. Then again I dialed a lady named Vaishali listened all and said she will talk with her senior named Vinayak he also spoken with me and listened all and assured me he will definitely get back in the evening of 16/6/2010. Till date waiting his call.

Then on 17/6/2010 I again called at 12148 on 13:10 hrs. and other end in gentleman Parshant I asked him plz connect me to Vinayak he hold me some time then said Vinayak is busy on another line he will call u later, no response till I am waiting his call.

In this regard I emailed them 4 times from dated 14/6/2010 at [protected]@airtel.in. Only auto response that we received your query that’s all. Still waiting for reply. Nothing from email and nothing from customer care.

All whom I spoken said we will check your recording with Pritam Singh, nothing happened till date.

My only concern is that they are a Company not a shopkeeper who made false promises then backs out. But if they behave like this then AIRTEL WILL BECOME HISTORY SOON.

      Dear Sir,

      I was having Airtel Dish since last three years or so.Customer ID[protected].In the last week the channels were over-lapping and no clear picuture was available on
      my TV. I have made comlaint in the last week of April 2010.It is stated that it may be
      a local problem,get chacked dish and cable connection.it was found accurate.There was problem in set-top box.They didn't depute any technician to check.Ultimately
      I have taken fresh connection of Airtel at the cost of Rs.l597/ on 5th may 2010.And
      on 3rd may I had informed that pl.discontinue my services and refund blance which
      was Rs.169//They are refusing even they are not prepared to add that balnce in my
      present connection which is obtained in the identical name and place.From this
      con I have received plathoria of incorrect messages stating that there is no sufficient
      balance and services may be discontinued.One incident is surprising to-day I have
      made recharge of Rs.100They have confirmed but they have admitted this recharge
      in old ID.In past I had not made in recharge for espn although I had recieved sms
      stating that top-up has been made and deduction of Ra.30/-+tax was deducted from
      my balance.On complaint they have accepted that the re-charge pertains to some
      Hariyana customer.But they did not allow reverse credit.Not even started channel
      espn.On the first day it was made clear to them that I am not going to order for
      film or top-up.I am only interested in small value Rs.127/ +taxes,therefore ignore
      any top-up.
      2. On the facts stated above,I have to request you to do something to help me
      because I am aged 70years and not keeping well.

      With regards,

        I, Bimal Kumar Naulakha (Jain) have purchased AIRTEL DTH service 1½ to 2 months before from your Siliguri office. My customer id is [protected] as referred above. Since 17th June 2010 the service is totally off. Then and there we made a complain to your office vide complain no 3066041 & 3095369. But till now nobody has attended the complain even after our daily follow ups. Every time they are replying that ‘Service executive is out of Station’, ‘today is raining heavily,’ ‘Our executive will meet you tomorrow’ and so on. They have thousand of excuses but no time to visit customer place once for necessary rectification to the service. This is surprising and not expecting from an organization like Airtel. This type of negligence cannot help to run your business of DTH service smoothly.

        In any case we are terribly disappointed with your after Sales Service and decided to terminate the connection with immediate effect. So we request you to inform us about the process of termination and how fast we can be detached from your connection. I strongly recommend never buying AIRTEL DTH connection to every one those who shows interest by watching our connection.

        Hope you will at least inform us the process of disconnection to me at the earliest. For further details feel free to contact the undersigned.

        Thanking You.

              I am a customer of Airtel. My mobile No. is [protected]. Company has activated a WOMENPORTAL pack and deducted Rs.30/- from my balance. I received their message Dated- 18.8.2012. This they have done without my consent. They have automatically activated the pack.
              This is totally fraud with me. If they not refund the deducted balance than I have change the Airtel service on my mobile.
              I want them to return my account balance as soon as possible and I just want stop all additional services.
              I am very disappoint about their services.

              Hi,

              See this similar issue: http://www.consumercomplaints.in/complaints/bharti-airtel-c756306.html. Can you please send an email to rikhath about your issue. We can co-ordinate and raise a petition against Airtel about this issue.

              Regards
              Shashi
              I had purchased mobile internet services for Rs.125 from the Airtel website on 26/10/14. The service offered mobile internet of 525MB which would be valid for 30 days. This morning (9/11/14) I received a message from Airtel saying that my mobile internet had been deactivated and hence they have been deducting from my main balance. I called up Airtel customer service and asked them about it. In the first call, they said that the problem was with my phone and not their service. I checked my phone and it was working alright. I called them again. They said that I had recharged from some other private site and they were not liable for it. However, I had recharged from the Airtel site only. The third time I called I gave them my airtel recharge transaction id in spite of which they said that I had not recharged at all and their data does not show any proof of my transaction. When I called for the fourth time, they said that I had recharged but however, the validity of the service was only for 14 days and hence it had expired. The service is still available on their website and it clearly shows 30 days validity. I have been harassed by Airtel customer service with each of them giving completely distinct responses on the same issue. Due to this I have not only been unable to use the mobile internet pack which I spent Rs.125 on, I also lost Rs.50 from my main balance despite having proof of my recharge being done on the above mentioned date. I had to recharge again in order to activate the services again. This is the 4th problem I have faced with Airtel in the past 3 months.

                  Airtel DTH Service is a SCAM

                  Ref: Cutomer id: [protected]

                  This is to pointout the Scam pratices performed by Airtel DTH and the harassment and mental torture caused by them to their consumers.

                  I applied for a 999 Rs. Connection via online contact form at Airtel's website. I received a call the next from the Airtel Executive and made the purchase for a 999 connection and multiple room connection for 1750.

                  Date of Payment: May 27th 2010
                  Transaction id: 8974827 – (999 Rs Connection)
                  Transaction id: 89744899 – (1750 Rs Connection)

                  Waited patiently till June 5th, no one contacted me or came for a Installation. On 6th June I contacted Airtel toll free no. [protected] and complained about the connection.

                  I was assured an installation and call back soon.

                  Till June 9th no response from Airtel DTH. Once again I contact Airtel DTH customer care, This time I get my customer id.: [protected]

                  Also I am given a complain number this time 3011821. The executive assured me a installation on June 10th and also passed me the mobile number of their local installation company. [protected] - Mobile No.: OASIS Services

                  OASIS services don't attend calls at all. I tried contacting them more than 10 times on June 10th but anyone failed to answer at their number.

                  June 12th – I speak to senior executive at Airtel DTH toll free no. 3028453 : complaint no / Sr.Executive name: Prabhat , I threaten him for a cancellation and request for a refund.

                  Executive begs for 'One more chance' I am assured a call back from him and also installation the next day. (- Got No Call back or any response.)

                  To this complaint number Airtel sends me sms stating: Your Service Request ref no. Is 3028453 for “Wrong Resolution(Domino)”

                  Wrong Resolution?? I haven't got a intallation yet and Airtel tells me I complained for Wrong Resolution.

                  June 14th - Same old story. I speak to senior executive at Airtel DTH toll free no.[protected] interaction number / Sr.Executive name: Sushant , I threaten him for a cancellation and request for a refund.

                  Executive begs for 'One more chance' I am assured a call back from him and also installation the same day by 2pm. (- Got No Call back or any response.)

                  June 14th – 3.50pm again at Airtel Toll free no. ... Again assured installation on June 15th / 3056485: Complaint number.

                  June 15th – No one arrives at my place. Called up Airtel DTH toll free no; Sr. Executive assured installation by 2pm.

                  June 15th – 3.50pm called up Airtel DTH toll free no; Sr. Executive says spoke to Area Manager, spoke to higher senior authority; assured installation within 1.5 hrs.

                  - No update, No Installation!

                  June 16th – I call up Airtel DTH toll free no; Speak to senior executive Poonam Singh. She assures a callback in 1hr.

                  No response for about 2.5hrs. I call up again and speak to her, she claims she was busy. Tells me spoke to my Area manager Gladwin George and says they are not allowed to install a connection Kharghar.

                  Why did Airtel tell me before accecpting my connection request that they can install the connection in my area?

                  I request for a cancellation.

                  Cancel Connection: Service Req No.: 3071530

                  I am assured a call back on June 17th around 3pm and need to explain the reason for disconnection.

                  June 17th – No Response from Airtel.


                  I am still waiting for my connection from May 27th 2010 ie., and for the refund or installation.

                  Stay away from Airtel DTH, its a scam company.

                  Hi Humm,

                  I agree with you on this. I have been with Airtel DTH from past seven months. Believe me I committed a mistake, instead of going in for a recharge, I by mistake on the Airtel DTH website purchase a new connection. It was 17th of June then, and till date I have been fighting for my money back.

                  I have written loads of emails have made calls everyday but there's absolutely no resolution. I have written email to Airtel presence as my last resort. I intend to talk to some lawyers or approach the consumer forum. This is totally unexpected, never dreamt that Airtel would provide such pathetic support to its DTH customers.
                  Airtel HD is a big scam. I strongly believe that Airtel doesn't have HD service and only to capture new customers they have rolled out the promotion. Kindly stay away from Airtel.

                  I have applied for HD and no one has come yet. After 7 days one person comes to our house. Attaches every thing for 5 mins and then says tha HD box is not working. How can someone know within 5 mins that HD box is not working. This was a trick easily understood by both me and my wife. The installer said that next day he would get a new box only to tell me that all boxes have bee sold out and i would need to wait.

                  Kindly go with Dish TV its good service...
                  Airtel is big scam. They haven't yet refunded my money.
                  I made blunder!!! I should have read complaint on internet before booking new Airtel HD DTH services. I booked new connection online on 30/8/2011 & so far what I got is only the customer ID No. [protected]. I contacted Customer Care on[protected] on several time but always got evasive reply. They asked me to contact Oasis Service on [protected] but this no. is always found to be either busy or switched off. When I insisted to know their Nodal Officer's contact no., they asked to contact one Mr. K Rao on[protected]. Here also I failed to speak in person as I always get to hear the recorded message & no one answer the call at any time of the day. When I tried again to contact Customer Care again, they simply disconnect the phone & refused to give any information. I do not know when installation would be carried out. I feel cheated & do not know what to do or whom to approach. My humble request to all new customer not to book Airtel DTH online as you are dealing with invisible entity. Airtel Customer Care simply refuse to give phone no. of any Officer or if you insist, they ensure that the no. shared to you is not working. I need to know how to get my money back or mobile no. of the concerned Airtel Manager.

                    There is signal loss and it shows error code B001 on very light Rain fall. Where as neighbour having Dish TV signal strength is more and no signal loss observed.

                    Please make signal more powerful so there are less chances of loosing it.

                      From: [protected]@yahoo.com

                      To whomsoever it may concern,


                      I am an Airtel customer for the last four & a half (4.5) years with the postpaid connections, bearing numbers [protected] & [protected]. With this in mind I opted for one more post paid connection, but for the last one & a half month, I have faced much harassment, which is being put forth as under:

                      1) Rent/lease agreement along-with the application & Rs 300 security deposit. I was provided with the number [protected] on 10/5/2010, which was activated on 11/5/2010.
                      2) I received a letter from airtel about my number ( [protected] indicating the plan etc
                      3) Subsequently I had to make half a dozen trips to your vendors place with several silly reasons that I have to sign in blue ink & lease agreement is not acceptable etc,
                      4) On 21/5/2010 the number stopped functioning & I received a bill No [protected]
                      dt 24/5/2010 amounting to Rs 149.30 for the number [protected], relationship
                      number [protected].
                      5) I then complained on 121 with my existing number [protected], I was asked to go to the vendor and get a new sim card & not to make this payment & either take back the deposit or take a new sim card.
                      6) Accordingly I submitted fresh set of documents which also included the income tax assessment order of the last year
                      7) Then before I could get the second sim card from the vendor, a representative from Airtel came to my residence for verification of my number [protected].
                      8) Even after 3 days of verification my number did not start functioning & I was compelled to take the 2nd sim card with number bearing [protected] which was activated on 8/06/2010.
                      9) After a few days I again got the message that I have to submit the documents.
                      10) I spoke to one Mr Tushar on 198, who on my insistence connected me to a higher officer one Mr.Shahid. He requested me to visit the vendor once again & resubmit the documents & also ensured that, there will not be any problem & the complaint number is F[protected].
                      11) Finally on 17/06/2010 all outgoing from my new number [protected] stopped functioning.
                      12) I received call on 18/06/2010 at 9:11 am from Airtel ([protected]) for verification of my new number [protected] and confirming that the documents submitted by me have been received by them & when I informed her that my outgoing has been deactivated. I was assured by her that it will be activated soon. Subsequently on 18/06/2010 my incoming also has been deactivated.

                      I have undergone tremendous mental harassment & financial loss in this period
                      due to uncertainty of my communication facility.

                      In view of the above if my connection is not restored within 24 hours, I may
                      be compelled to take necessary action as deemed fit.

                      Thank you for contacting Airtel.

                      We understand from your previous interaction dated 19/06/2010, you have requested to activate the Outgoing call facility for your Airtel number [protected].

                      We would like to inform you that your Outgoing call facility has been deactivated with effect from 18/06/2010 due to non receipt of documents.

                      We request you to kindly send the scanned copy of the documents which you have submitted in the Airtel Relationship Center and the address of the Airtel Relationship Center, enabling us to do the needful.

                      For further assistance, mail us at [protected]@airtelindia.com.

                      Dear Ms Rekha,

                      It is disgusting to note that when 0n 18/06/2010, I got a confirmation call from Airtel regarding receipt of documents & the assurance provided over thephone that the activation would be made at the earliest & now asking for the documents again is just meaningless, This kind of treatment to an existing
                      customer is crossing all limits of harassment.

                      All the documents are with the Airtel relationship centre. However I am sending
                      the scanned copies as attached zip file. Hope the response from Airtel is positive by activating my number immediately. I am sending the scanned copy of the income tax assessment order which has already been submitted twice.

                      Airtel relationship centre address is as under :
                      Gayatri Telecommunication,
                      Deep Niwas, 46,
                      Aundh Road,
                      Near Ganapati Mandir,
                      Khadki, Pune 411020

                      I would like my number to be activated latest by 11:00 am tomorrow, failing which I would make the claim for the mental agony, harassment & financial loss which I have suffered in this period.
                      Matter may be treated as most important & urgent.

                      Dear Mr Mahendra, P.

                      As suggested by you I referred the matter with the airtel relationship centre & I am given to understand that the income tax assessment order is not an acceptable document. For your kind information the airtel website clearly indicates that the income tax assessment order can be submitted as proof of address.The extract of the web page is reproduced below.

                      Quote "

                      " In case the Proof of Identity document does not contain your address, you must submit one of the following documents as Proof of Address:

                      Electricity Bill of State company (not older than last 3 months)
                      Telephone Bill of Fixed Line (not older than last 3 months)
                      Water Bill (not older than last 3 months)
                      Ration card
                      Income Tax Assessment Order (not Older than one year)
                      vehicle Registration Certificate (RC)
                      Registered Sale/Lease (Rent) Agreement "

                      Unquote

                      Now if this is the excuse given by the document checking authority of Airtel, I will not be left with any other alternative but to resort to approach a proper forum to address my grievances

                      Airtel — outgoing call deactivated even after verification of residence

                      hai,
                      I P.Ramarao, My Mobile No. [protected] i bought one mobile with airtel connection .. i have already two times submitted my id proof and photos, but till today out going calls are not activate... please tell what is the problem... plase activate.. its very urgent... If you are not recieved my documents plase call to me.. i will come to head office ..
                      I have purchased my new Airtel post-paid card a week before. They told me someone from airtel will come to your house to verify residency details.

                      The person came & verified. But still I am not able to do outgoing calls even after 7 days.. I called customer care 5 times. Each time they said we are forwarding your complaint & give me request number of my compliant..they even told me someone will come again
                      for verification & asked me time suitable.

                      I got happy with the response but noone has come yet.

                        Dear Sir,

                        I am using Airtel number for last four years. I have also GPRS Connectivity. Regarding some GPRS issue i called to airtel customer care number 12118. That time their customer care representative told me to call from another number so they can check the problem. Then i tried to call from my friend number. i got a voice message that this call will be chargeable. This information is really shocking because i haven't get any message or mail from airtel that call to customer care is chargeable. If i tried from my number, this voice recorder is not there. it is connecting directly. Customer care is for assisting the the customer.not for making money centre. Bharti airtel exploting this service and making money out of this. Airtel have more 20 lakhs customer in allover india. if 20 lakhs people will called ontime in a month they will get a money 2000000 X .50 ps = Rs1000000/- apporx. without any effort. They charging money from the customers due to their problems. Why we should pay for getting their service. Please take this complaint as a serious issue and resolve ASAP.

                        Dear Mr. Vinay Chugh,

                        Why do you need contact details? the above customer complaint is not just concerning one person. It is a duty of Service Provider to give TOLL FREE customer service. It seems airtel is playing with TRAI rules.

                        I sincerely wish TRAI should act strongly not just by STOPPING such charges, but also recovering all this money and should impose a hefty fine...!!!

                          MY MOBILE [protected] IS BEING CHARGED FOR SERVICES SUCH AS JOKES AIRTEL RADIO ETC WITHOUT MY CONSENT/REQUEST. I HAVE ALREADY BEEN DEDUCTED WITH ABOUT 90 Rs. TILL DATE. WILL AIRTEL DE-ACTIVATE SUCH UNWANTED SERVICES PLEASE.

                          Airtel — without my knowledge some services are getting Activated and charged

                          Feb 5th 2009 I got a message from Airtel that Missed call Alert has been activated And Rs 15 will be charged per month
                          The same I spoke with Customer Care and also sent a mail to 121 but of no use
                          Again Feb 14th 2009 I got a message from Airtel that Missed Call been activated And Rs 15 will be charged per month
                          I really do not know why Airtel are activating the service without my request
                          My Mobile number is [protected]

                          Agriculture Services has been activated without my knowledge. Even after complaining about it at their Office at Vasant Kunj, this service still continues and I am being charged unnecessarily for it. I want Airtel to stop this urgently please.

                            I am Giridhar having Customer ID : [protected] taken a new Digital TV connection recently ( booked on 12th May 2010). While taking AIRTEL DTH service I contacted AIRTEL DTH customer care and got assurance that BHAKTI TV ( telugu religious Channel ) will be provided. Keeping trust and hope on AIRTEL DTH services I paid Rs 1791/- for 4 months of free service.

                            With out any notice AIRTEL DTH changed my favourite channel (channel 529)to some other news channel. By doing this act I am very much upset and disappointed.

                            Please take action for my favourite channel as AIRTEL DTH committed to me before I accept subscription.

                            I am least bothered for AIRTEL DTH any other channel with out Bhakti TV.

                            If AIRTEL DTH can not able to provide what I demand ( Bhakti TV ), I would like not to go with AIRTEL DTH Digital TV services any more and I also demand full return of my money with suitable compensation

                            AirTel — not providing proper services

                            i am a user of airtel since 6 years and now i am facing lot many problems regarding this connection. i activated my gprs of 250 monthly subscription and without any information another scheme was activated which deducted browsing charges from my balance. and on complaining about this problem to customer care executive they ask to deactivate the unknowing activated service and i was asked to wait for 48hrs till its deactivation. then after the time of 48 hrs that unknowing scheme was still there which kept on reducing my balance. when i called to the customer care executive centre somebody ask to do something else and some one asked to do something else. atlast they deactivated my 250 monthly subscription scheme without telling me. and when i again called they asked me to wait for 24 hrs. now this is a height of something that yo people keep on harrasing people with such idiotic answers. so either you people should give back the same amount of money being lost or dont misguide people.
                            I too am a subscriber of Airtel DTH. I have taken this up after another DTH dumped the channel without notice. Unfortunately Airtel has proved NO better. I really doubt if Airtel does proper market study before taking this type of decisions. I know atleast a dozen families thoroughly disappointed by this decision of Airtel DTH. The only option seems to be to move out of Airtel now. The good old cable is much better in this regard. Atleast they don't remove the channels. Its high time a proper regulation is put in place so that customers are not inconvenienced like this.

                            Sub:-Disappointed with the services.
                            My name is Paras and my ID is [protected] I have two connections with this ID.For the past couple of months I ‘am facing a lot of problem with Airtel satellite setup box, am unable to see any of the music channel, only one news channel is visible, where I have all the music and news channel in my package. Lot of time I have made complains regarding same problem but nothing really happened till date. (15/05/10, 25/05/10)
                            Kindly advice what to do or else tell me the procedure to surrender the connection.

                            Regards,
                            Paras Arora
                            This is absolutely ridiculous approach by AIRTEL by removing the channel without consultation. There are many families who would like to watch Devotional channels rather than stupid News channels following Politicians. Common Sense should prevail. AIRTEL grow up !
                            I am Kapil having Airtel DTH with Customer ID: [protected]. I have taken Airtel DTH exclusively for Bhakti TV 1 year back.

                            Recently Bhakti TV has been removed from the telecast without prior notice. I called up Customer Care couple of times and the response is that Airtel representative will contact me. I am not sure when will that happen.

                            I am very disappointed taking Airtel DTH. Expected good customer service from these guys, but they are not better than other DTH services.
                            i am also very dissapointed with AIRTEL.my mother is asking for the bhakti channel almost every day since it has been removed.i request AIRTEL to restore the channel
                            I am Udaykiran. Me too took Airtel connection because it satisfies my requirement of bhakti channels SVBC and BHAKTI TV. But I am disappointed Airtel removed that channel without any notice. We opted Airtel because of those channels.

                            Sir,

                            I myself compaint about the Airtel DTH services for the last few days that whenever I switch on of my TV then No Signal is always screened there. I complaint to Customer Care of Airtel DTH Service on 29.08.2011 and again complaint, they also lodged my complaint and also assure me within one or two day my service engineer visit your home. Sir, nine days elapsed but no one visit regarding my complaint, and further complaint/request no.11522850 dated 02.09.2011. I also suprise that service is failure due to technical problem but service charge/balance has been deducting everyday after complaining.

                            This type of service is not tolerable anymore. I would request you to take stringent action against my request so that this type of happening will not occur in future.

                            Awaiting for your early and positive action from your side.

                            Thanking you,

                              Sir

                              I have take AIRTEL IPTV connection for residential usage in 2009 by paying the installation charges. On 28th April 2010 I applied for shifting of IPTV connection to new premises. Shifting was promised in 3 working days. Time elapsed and shifting did not happen and hence I kept on calling AIRTEL IPTV CUSTOMER CARE for 20 days but nothing happened. Whenever I called the customer care I got a reply our servers are down now. I requested them to call me back when the servers are up to resolve the issue up on which they replied we cannot call the customer to resolve the problem. They never got back to me with any technical problems involved. Due to Unacceptable delays and poor services I wrote to AIRTEL IPTV NODEL OFFICER enplaning the above and asked for disconnection of IPTV services due to laps of services and refund the installation charges. They disconnected the IPTV services but then I got a regular bill like every month. Upon questioning them they reduced the bill as per shifting application date and I paid the same. Since then I haven't got any reply from nodal officer explaining the poor services and the return of installation charges due to poor services. I request you kindly take necessary action at the earliest possible date.

                              Thank you

                              I was not expecting such poor service from AIrtel.

                              But airtel can not resolve your issue as my issue is pending since last 2 months .
                              and airtel is continually generating bills.
                              Airtel service are ridiculous regrading IPTV and broadband.

                                Recently I took a Airtel prepaid mobile sim. Though I am able to call from the number but all the SMS which I am sending is getting failed. Every time it is showing Error and giving option to retry or cancel. I talked to Airtel customer care executive and she told me to check the SMS delivery settings.

                                As per the settings,

                                Validity Period - Maximum, Message Type - Text, Service Center - [protected] and Reply Path - No.

                                Please look into the matter and resolve.

                                  Subject : Complaints…

                                  1. Unwanted and unnecessary activation, promotional calls & and being charged….since past ONE YEAR

                                  2. Unauthorized activation of the schemes and packages

                                  3. Unnecessary disturbance all day, and that disturbs her sleep and health.


                                  Some of the schemes and packages ACTIVATED AND CHARGED without our knowledge are as under :

                                  • Matrimonial sites
                                  • Cricket scores
                                  • Jokes
                                  • Airtel Radio
                                  • Airtel talkies
                                  • Caller Tunes, songs, ….. etc etc
                                  • Some others too that are not yet known to us … as the staff was checking and call gets conviently disconnected.


                                  Sir / Madam,

                                  This is a VERY SERIOUS BREACH of trust by your “Airtel Company”, where I have now decided to take legal action and I will make sure this is in print in all leading newspapers.
                                  There’s utter lack of responsibility and absolutely no accountability on the part of this unprofessional organization. It accounts to CHEATING, practically EVERY customer.

                                  My mother is 74 years old and she just watches TV programs that too very few.

                                  She brought this to my notice that there are messages and unnecessary calls throughout the day…
                                  and I was shocked to find what is happening.

                                  NOTE :

                                  • She is in no state to re-marry or listen to jokes or cricket scores every day many times over.
                                  • She does not even know how to operate the cell apart from receiving and making calls.
                                  • She has NOT subscribed or authorized any schemes or packages what-so-ever.
                                  • The disturbance level of ringing all day is unnecessary and that is affecting her sleep and health.
                                  • Not to forget we have been CHARGED for all this.
                                  Calling Airtel Customer Care is a saddening and frustrating affair and needs loads of time… as the call gets conviently disconnected or long waiting or no reply.

                                  Visiting airtel galleries earlier too was frustrating … AND so as PROOF this time; is as follows…



                                  On the above date and time I visited Airtel Gallery, Lokhandwala complex …
                                  Spoke to Mr. UMESH… He could not help but he did connect me to another department where one MS DIPALI MOHAN K from ARC Dept. spoke to me… now here too the calls were getting disconnected.
                                  This was from the gallery itself.
                                  On wanting to speak to the manager I was told she/he also wasn’t present.
                                  Mgr name : Ravinder Kaur.

                                  Once again I was connected to Dipali who agreed after checking that some packages were activated and that CHARGES were DEDUCTED.

                                  She could only check for the month from May 2010.

                                  She later took my
                                  contact number : [protected] and
                                  email id : [protected]@yahoo.com and she said that she would consult her seniors and revert.

                                  I have been WAITING…………………………â�... date.

                                  All I want now;

                                  1. TOTAL deductions done since June 1st 2009 till DATE 17TH June 2010.
                                  2. Stoppage of all these schemes, packages and unwanted calls.
                                  3. Crediting the entire amount to her airtel number.

                                  My email id is :
                                  [protected]@yahoo.com

                                  Airtel — Unauthorised activation and charging of Hello tunes

                                  This is to bring to your notice that this is the THIRD time (complaint ref no.[protected] it has happened that Hello tunes have been activated and also changed to another one without getting my confirmation either by call from your representative or by a SMS.
                                  Rs 35 was also deducted.

                                  The issue is that in case the mobile is with my parents who cant do the procedure to reverse the amount and if the balance reaches zero ,in case of emergency they cant make a call.
                                  I had mentioned in my earlier complaint forwarded herewith to avoid recurrence but again repeated this shows how seriously you have taken.
                                  AUTOMATIC ACTIVATION OF PACKAGES AND SCHEMES and charged for it is the way the company CHEATS the ordinanr uneducated customers or then those who DO NOT REALIZE that they are being cheated.
                                  This has happened to me too.
                                  Airtel gallery has been contacted as per the attached TOKEN
                                  ...dated 02 / 06 / 2010 time 07 : 21 PM evening.
                                  Complaint is dated 17 / 06 / 2010
                                  15 days passed and no action is taken by AIRTEL Company...
                                  WHY SHOULD THEY CARE ...
                                  Airtel is a cheater but once I fought with them and have got my money back (of course to get that I had to visit their gallery by cab which cost me)

                                    Sample this! My wife receives a call this morning from Airtel Delhi, gives the phone to me because of an unknown number, I answer the call only to hear music on the other end and disconnect it within few seconds. Bingo!! 10 rupees deducted from the balance for opting Airtel radio mirchi. This got me furious and I called 198, the first person immediately disconnected the call and I was hung up on because I used unacceptable language with them. I called again only to discover that my wife, who is a home maker, had opted for job alerts since 2008. I wonder how many innocent people are being looted everyday by Airtel. This certainly needs to be enquired at a higher lever.

                                    The best part, the executive @ 198 gave me Vinay Chugh ‘s number and when called, it says “Number does not exist, please check the number”

                                    this is from [protected] (airtel). the airtel people have activated Mirchi mobile service without asking me or giving any info. they are deducting 5-10 rs for every week. i tried to stop that via using 121 service but there was no response. i am loosing my hopes on airtel . plz help me. I[censored] go on do these things i'm sure that one bad day your no 1 ranking place will be lost. Think bout it, just for 10-20 rupees are u going to loose ur status. Have some thing in mind bout ur users.

                                      So i think this is not a good service in a airtel which is multinational company.
                                      so plz look in to this matter care fully. for any further information plz contact me at below mention contact no.

                                      AIRTELL looted me lot of time with nonsense and ununderstandable expenditure..they said..
                                      I tried call center..seems lot of are working there..

                                      They say the money was never there in my account..wow..what to say...
                                      Sometime additional Roaming charges.
                                      Sometime I have entered to my country back
                                      Sometime due to some wrong button..

                                      Prepaid are always a enjoyable station for AIRtell to deduct money..AIRTell's earning is increased 3 times due to this kind of nasty buisness..which no one can proove and no one can tell to anyone..

                                      WOW Airtell..just keep on filling your pocket by looting poor INDIANs..may GOD bless you..
