    Mr. Inderjit Singh Gill has issued me a Leagl Notice under section 403, 405, 406, read with section 420 of the IPC. I do not know if Mr. Gill has verified the issues before sending the Legal Notice to a common man like me or not. I have been facing issues with Airtel network for a long time, for which I have always registered complaints on Airtel.In, I have been getting emails from Airtel asking my location and giving false commitments to resolve the issues.
    After certin time, I had requested to stop the Blackberry Service I was using on my Airtel number [protected] and requested Disconnection of the same number due to continued problems in the Network. I got a confirmation message saying that 15 days there would not be any rent and then I shall get the final bill. I had even paid the last bill. The very next day I got a call from retention department of Airtel requesting not to discontinue the serevices and to use 249 1 paisa all over India calling plan for two months and also got a commitment that the problem will be solved.
    Now I feel that I amde a mistake keeping faith in Airtel and continued using the service. Again after a month or two I started giving complaints and reminders and Airtel did not bother to do the needful. Finally I spoke to a Customer Care Executive and informed that I would not pay the bill until I get the solution for my problems.
    Now, Airtel is harrasing me to pay the bill. In the mean time, my number was disconnected and whwnever one used to call on the number, heshe could listen to a pre-recorded message saying that this number is not in service. I had spoken to one Mr. Shrikant from Vega Center, Swargate, Pune (Gentleman from the recovery department!!!!) and asked that when the number was not in service, how can Airtel charge a Monthly Rental. Mr. Shrikant after (I guess) verifying my last bill, said that I could pay 500-600 Rs. and do the full and final settlement. Now Airtel is asking me for Rs. 1269.61 + 500 Rs. of the Legal Notice. I was emailing one Mr. Amit Borse, recovery department, Mumbai (The id and contact nos were given by Airtel in one document related to this matter) and all emails were getting bounced..I have the evidence.
    Also one more unethical way of harrasment by Airtel was a written notice which said that they would inform my HR department (of the company I am working for) about this issue...FOR WHAT??
    Fortunately, I have all the email exchanges and screen shots of the complaints I had registered on the Airtel website as an evidence.
    Today, i.e. on 29 April 2010, I spoke to one Mr. Swapnil on the given phone number [protected] in the legal notice, and as expected he suggested me to pay the said amount. To my surprise, when I expressed my concerns, he casually asked me to go to any legal way I can go and said that Airtel is open for this!! I had requested Mr. Swapnil to email me his commitments he had given today on phone such as retention of my number [protected], my other concerns etc before I pay the amount.. Mr. Swapnil had given his email id to me on request...swapnil.[protected]@airtel.in...all the emails are bouncing back!!! I tried calling him on his number almost 15 times...first he didnt pick up the phone, then his number was busy, then again he didnt pick the phone and then one Mr. Arora picked up the phone and said that Mr. Swapnil is busy in a meeting now till evening and he would not be available and then asked me to come down to D wing of Vega Center.

        I have been using Airtel mobile services since last 2-3 years. I had registered my cell phone number on Airtel DND registry at least couple of months ago. However, after registering on DND of Airtel, I had started getting offers/services descriptions from unknown number which I had never received earlier. The frequency of such messages has increased in the recent past and it is really annoying to see such messages coming especially after registering on DND registry.

        It is extremely unprofessional and unethical conduct from Airtel and I seek reimbursement in material terms for evasion of my peace of mind and trust on these services.

        My No. is [protected]

        Airtel — Does not abide to DND registry

        i am listed on national do not disturb registry for 4 months now and i still keep on getting spam calls. I have lodged complaints against these numbers several times, but i still keep on getting this calls and airtel has never responded to status of complaints whatsoever.

        I find this very irresponsible and in direct violation of TRI guidelines.
        My DND is activated from past 3 months and even today I get calls and SMS from Airtel. I have called the customer care several times and still get calls.. The customer care people do not respond properly. they tell me that they will message me the complaint number, but this has never happened.. I request TRAI to take action against this..

        Vodafone Mobile Services — Receipt of Offers/Services through SMS despite registration on DND

        I have been using Vodafone mobile services since last 3-4 years. I had earlier registered my cell phone number on centralised Do Not Disturb Registry which was independent of service provider name at thta time. In the event of this registry responsibility being handed over to the service providers, I had again registered my cell phone number on Vodafone DND registry at least couple of months ago. However, after registering on DND of Vodafone, I had started getting offers/services descriptions from unknown number which I had never received earlier. The frequency of such messages has increased in the recent past and it is really annoying to see such messages coming especially after registering on DND registry.

        Dear Airtel,

        I have been calling your customer care every day (almost) and all they ask me is to provide them with the details of the sender of such SMS or calls. Please note, that if I'm not interested in these calls and SMS' surely, I do not have the inclination nor the time to note down these details and keep feeding you with the information!

        You need to come up with a solution to such a problem and I'm sure, since it is your network, you already have the details of all the 'DM - -----" etc. who are sending these messages and disturbing us.

        Regards,

          Address: North Delhi, Delhi

          Dear Sir,


          I would like to file a complaint against Bharti Airtel Ltd For the 'financial harassment and mental torture' for the following matter.

          I filed a telephonic request to Airtel on 121 for cancellation of Airtel DSL Connection No.[protected]or user ID: [protected]_dsl) on 22nd Deecember,2009.I followed it up with their official complaint email address on their website on February 1, 2010 as it was not disconnected by then.


          Instead of disconnecting the phone, they called me exactly 10 times on mobile no. [protected] while making various new offer rather than terminating the connection. I confirmed to each of them 10 times, therefore making it 100 times for 10 calls, 10 times confirmation each, that I'm sure that I would like to disconnect my connection, yet they have sent me Bill with complete
          monthly charges.



          Nothing happened till now instead of giving termination request every month since then.

          Again I made the request with latest service request reference number as 32540966 dated 11th May,2010, against which termination assurance of 13th May,2010 was given.



          Now, even after 5 days there is no confirmation of termination of connection from you Airtel, Please do the needful or else I would have to drag you to Consumer Court.


          Thanks & Regards,
          Gagan Khanna

          I totally agree! I have had numerous problems with Airtel people and one of them is of the same nature.

          Airtel Broadband — No Termination

          Dear Sir,

          I had informed the bill collecting person and had also requested aritel customer care for termination of broadband connection[protected] after clearing he bill till the month of February after which I shifted to a new location. Despite of me intimating them for termination I still receive alerts in my mobile and email which I had brought to notice to them the time itself, when I got bill alert for the month of March. But I still received bills for the month of April and have been getting messages regarding the same.

          Please take it as a formal complaint.

                    Address: Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh

                    I was having a BSNL broadband connection for my home usage. Someone suggested to get an Airtel broadband connection which he suggested would be faster and better than BSNL. Hence I went for the same and issued a cheque on 23rd April 10 for Rs 1800.00 as an advance for three month rental.

                    I am a professional and working as a consultant to a British company. Without internet I can not work and thus I am loosing heavily and which is affecting my credibility.

                    The Airtel internet connection was released (Login ID [protected]_dsl) on 30th April 2010 in a hurry and a modem (Beetel modem 110TC1) was provided with the connection. I was having my BSNL broadband at that time which was got disconnected on 6th May 10 and from that day my nightmare started. The performance of the connection is very poor, very erratic. Every now and then I am getting the page which shows that the ADSL is down. When it is running, the Signal to Noise margin normally remains below 5 (downstream) and 8-12 (upstream). Similarly Line Attenuation remains between 30 to 24.

                    I have Netgear and Huawei wireless router-modems which, I have been told, would not work because of the above problems (Both of them are in perfect working order). Therefore, whenever Airtel internet works, I have to connect my laptop to the Beetel modem (110TC1) with the help of LAN cable and thus limited to my PC work table only.

                    I have made several complaints about my Airtel internet connection but to no avail. I had also called call centre and got registered my complaint (Reference no 32554802 dated 11th May 10). I am continuously contacting every body who was involved with the release of the connection. However when my problem was not taken up seriously I contacted Mr. Anural Lamba of AirTel on 15th May. He suggested to contact Mr Shahzad Jami[protected] who finally said that he would look into the matter and my problem would be solved. In the evening Mr Ajay Singh, engineer again visited my house and the internet was made functional again. However the S/N ratio is still below par which was shown to Sri Laxman and Sri Ajay Singh who had visited my house earlier.

                    The connection is still poor and I am getting frequent disconnection every now and then.

                    Today in the morning the net was again not working and I got the same page (ADSL down). At the time of writing this (18th May 2010 10:18 pm), the SN ratio is 3 and 11. Line attenuation is 31.0 and 24.5.

                    Today I have received the bill against the internet connection.

                    I request Airtel authorities to look into the matter and take corrective measures immediately so that I may get a stable internet connection alongwith the commissioning of my wireless modems (either Netgear or Huawei ). If this can not be achieved by Airtel then the connection may be disconnected permanently and my entire money be refunded.

                      15th May ’10 Saturday around 19:00, I have opted for new Airtel Digital TV connection (North India Ultra Pack). I have made payment of 4350 INR through Airtel Digital TV customer care (no dealer involved). Transaction Id for same is 8801526.

                      I was set with expectation during a call after I made payment that I will get customer ID SMSed to me within 3 hrs of time. However I have not received any customer ID till now after 48 hrs even (complain logged – 2709803).
                      I was told that incase if I do not receive customer ID; based on Transaction ID I can get it traced. Even for this Airtel Digital TV customer care is not helping.

                      By 17th May ’10 installation of Airtel digital TV was promised, however same has not been done yet.

                      I am following up with Aritel Digital TV customer care and it’s not of any help because customer care simply disconnect call because neither I have my customer ID nor my cell number ([protected]) registered properly by the person who took payment on 15 may '10 as part of new connection buying transaction with Airtel Digital TV.

                      Please inform by when My connection will be installed.

                        Address: Howrah, West Bengal

                        I am having Airtel Connection No.[protected] and on paying Rs. 999/- made it lifetime free incoming in 2004/05. The validity dace then was being shown as 25.11.2024. Suddenly since a year the validity period is shown as 24/11/2014. Being useless citizen of India, (Passport Holder, PAN card holder, Voter Identity Holder, Central Goverment Pensioner) I am not able to decide whether the Airtel Services are going to close in November 2014 or the Airtel wants me to die in November 2014. Can anybody give me an answer as I do not yet know the number for consumer complaints, neither they reveal it as done by BSNL while inserting SIM Card.

                          Address: Mumbai Suburban, Maharashtra

                          Recently transferred to Mumbai from Hyderabad, I had to change my mobile service provider and take a new number. Based on my own research I narrowed my option to Vodafone. But all logic set apart,

                          I decided to go for Airtel based on my friend’s recommendation and ever since it has been a nightmare.

                          I stay in Bhandup and work in Worli. The nearest Airtel Relationship Center (ARC)was in Mulund West- one Bhavna Connect. I called them up and found from the the documents I should submit to get a postpaid connection. According to their instructions- I carried with me the following:

                          a) Copy of the rent registration agreement. It should be noted here that the house was rented in my wife’s name and it was unambiguosly mentioned that Mrs. XXXX ( my wife) was wife of Mr. YYYY ( myself).

                          b) Copy of my PAN card

                          c) Photographs, and

                          d) The activation charge of Rs. 300

                          I was serviced by Mr. Ravi an executive there who studied all the documents and told me that they were in order and then accepted payment and gave me the SIM card ( No. [protected]). This was on the 7th of May 2010 and he told me that my connection would get activated the same day evening. True to his word, the SIM card got activated the same day evening.
                          The subsequent events are outlined below in chronological order:

                          1. 10th May 2010- Airtel officer visits house to verify address and other information provided
                          2. 11th May 2010- Received call from Mr. Ravi at Bhavna Connect, seeking clarification that my name does not appear on the Registered House Rent Agreement. Pointed out to him that the agreement was drawn in the name of my wife that my name appears as the name of the husband. He was satisfied and on asking him whether there is a problem, he answered in the negative saying that this should be fine.
                          3. 12th May, 2010- Received an SMS Alert from Airtel requesting me to submit my documentation to the point of purchase to avoid disconnection
                          4. 12th May, 2010- Immediately called Customer Service Representative and informed him of the SMS Alert and asked him what further documentation is needed. He informed me to ignore the SMS and that everything was in order.
                          5. 12th May 2010 - Received confirmatory mail by courier giving me the details of my plan and that my subscription is confirmed
                          6. 13th May 2010- Without any notice whatsoever, all outgoing calls were barred from my number. Enquiring with the Customer Service Representative, Mr. Vinod, I was informed that a piece of documentation called SIS was missing and that I had to go to the ARC where I purchased the connection to get the issue rectified. On telling him that I had filled up all the forms given to me by Mr. Ravi at Bhavna Televentures and that I was informed the day before that this was an error on the part of Airtel, he asked me to get in touch with Airtel Nodal Office.
                          7.13th May 2010 - Was send a Reference Number ( F [protected]) by SMS
                          8. 13th May 2010- Immediately called up the Nodal Office and talked to Mr. Satyaveer Singh. He checked out my details and informed me that it was a miscommunication and arranged for all outgoing calls to be activated.
                          9. 13th May 2010 - All outgoing calls were restored immediately
                          10. 14th May 2010 - Made a few calls during the daytime and in the evening found that all outgoing calls are again barred.
                          11. 14th May 2010 - Immediately called up Customer Care Representative and talked to Mr. Tanaji. He cited the old issue of incomplete documentation as the reason and asked me to go to Bhavna Televentures. On citing my earlier interactions, he then gave me the number of the Appellate Authority to communicate to.
                          12. 14th May 2010- Wrote to the Apellate Authority to Mr. Vishal Gurung, who is supposedly be the highest authority for Airtel in Mumbai. Got an automated response saying that my issue would be resolved in 24 hours and was given a reference number[protected]
                          13. Waited for 2 days and nothing happened...looked like Mr. Gurung was either not interested or had better things to do
                          14. 17th May 2010- Called up telephonically to the Apellate Authority to find out status of request. Phone was attended by a Ms. Nisha who told me that Mr. Gurung was not available. So I briefed her about my problem and she said that she will check into it.
                          15. 17th May 2010 - Ms. Nisha promptly called me back giving me yet another new reason for the abrupt discontinuation of services. She tells me that my name is given differently in the system. On querying with her as to whose mistake it was that a wrong entry has been made, she turned high and mighty telling me to go visit the ARC to rectify the issue and that she couldn’t do anything ( imagine the Apellate Authority, the highest authority of Airtel in Mumbai ) saying that they couldn’t do anything
                          13. In the same telecon, I told her that I do not have any other document to submit and as to whether Airtel could take back the SIM card and return me the Activation charge since the service was not being provided, her reply was interesting. Airtel would gladly take back the SIM card, but the refund was possible only after 60 days !!!
                          14. To cap it all, on 17th of May 2010, I receive a self satisfied mail from one Mr. Satish Pathak, Apellate Officer telling me that my issue has been resolved and asking me whether I was satisfied with the " service " provided.
                          15. Lastly, I write back to Mr. Pathak telling him that my issue still remains and yes true to its style...I get a reply from Airtel...thanking me for writing to them and giving me a new reference number[protected] and promising me resolution in 24 hours....And so the jouney has come back to square one...
                          16.I reviewed my experience with Airtel on Mouthshut.com giving their services a big thumbs down on the 17th of May 2010 and with 3 hours of writing the review, my SIM card which untill that time could receive incoming calls was deactivated completely and am now not in a position to get even incoming calls !! I get a message saying " SIM Card Regsitration failed !! ". Talk about freedom of speech.

                          My advice to future potential customers of Airtel is to refrain from this house of white collared thieves.

                          Regards.

                          Vodafone — Arm Twisting Tactics

                          1. Vodafone wrongly collected advance against receipt for the services to be rendered immediately within 3 days.
                          2. Vodafone provided services after good 78 days of collecting the advance, which is not normal and against industry norm.
                          3. Vodafone provided these services after almost 100 calls from my side to them or there agents, causing me financial loss, time lost and mental stress.
                          4. Vodafone after 78 days provider services which were not in conformity of the promises given in the receipt and supporting documents.
                          5. Vodafone did confirm the services on phone call which were mentioned in the documents but in the charges in bills was completely different.
                          6. The services to be provided were to be activated on one existing number and on two additional numbers.
                          7. Services to my existing number were rightly amended, whereas on additional numbers it was not provided, why, nobody explains.
                          8. In the bill there was no mention of the advance money collected.
                          9. After receipt of very first bill I complained in Vodafone gallery at Thane, put telephonic complaint and on the Email also.
                          10. Vodafone did not heed to my complaints and requests either on personal visits or on phone.
                          11. Vodafone did never bother to take note of the advance money collected on false pretext.
                          12. I had to visit the gallery at least 10 times to resolve the problem but to no avail.
                          13. NOW INSTEAD OF TRYING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM, VODAFONE HAS ISSUED ME TWO LEGAL NOTICE THREATENING OF LEGAL CATION.
                          Totally.. they are just ripping off customers money!

                            Sub:- Regarding Landline No.[protected]

                            Dear Sir,
                            This is with reference to our landline no. allotted to us. In this regard we would like to say that we have applied connection in the name of Ishika Foods Pvt Ltd at H.No. 2088, Sector- 4, opp. HUDA Gymkhana Club, Gurgaon by giving account payee cheque in your favour to sales officer Mr. Vikas Bairwa([protected]) which he processed for the connection and no allotted as well to us but due to some mistake at our side cheque returned from bank unpaid reason being difference in signing image which we came to know on last Saturday[protected] at 09.30pm by contacting customer care for the discontinue of the services………

                            In this regard we would like to say that this is our fault and we apologize first for the same and we rectified the same immediately by paying on-line through our credit card amounting Rs. 1750 only. We would like to dictate a little story as experience faced during the period till date…..

                            Sir if a company is distributing connections on the good faith of the customers then customers also too have to be equally responsible for the same we know and as a good customer we can’t deny because we are too doing business in market but yes! You can say status is much low as yours will……………….Hence ethics of business is same my dear …. We will pay for your services and you will provide services and thus to be called business…………

                            We want to say that we have given those cheque has returned due to difference in signing image but we paid immediately by credit card after we got the status but it is also a duty of company to inform customers or they should have some measures about to inform customers that there services are going to be blocked in the next coming day or hours or any type o[censored]ltimatum hence this is your internal strategy and as a customer we have right to give suggestions.

                            A LITTLE STORY ABOUT US FACED DURING…………………

                            Sir, this is very shameful to brief about your customer care who attends the call at [protected].
                            My personal experience start when I called to know the status of payment which I paid through credit card on Saturday[protected] at 11pm in night which they respond no payment received by us till yet. Then on very next day i.e. on Sunday I again confirmed on above said nos. they replied they received the payment and your connection will be activated on[protected] till 1.30pm sharp(as min. time of 4working hours required ). I again called for requesting if possible kindly activate currently as IP TV connections also got locked but at that time they replied we are not in receipt of any kind of payment. Mind two faces and two statements when both are using same system and working under one roof.

                            I waited for Monday and called again in hope that connection will be active after following the team. But they replied your request is under process and mail has marked by us which is a part of procedure and waited for the target time and in vain. I requested again on customer care and argued over the matter then they told no payment has received by us…..this is ridiculous that a phone caller is not receiving proper answer from opposite side and they all are making fool of others. At last I approached MR. VIKAS, sales officer for the said problem, he replied he is in a meeting and need 2 hours to get the status clear …….. I have no more option and I waited till 5pm, he didn’t made a call and when I called him he disconnected the connection two or three times and finally he replied he can’t do anything more and he replied to have talk with his senior Mr. ASHWINI ([protected]) and disconnected the phone in ill-mannered way and behaved rudely…….that is a team of AIRTEL such a big group touching sky and this type of attitude, shame full to us…. And at that time we thought we are much better as we are…………..

                            Now I called to Mr. ASHWINI ([protected]) who listens the whole story and said he will reply after half an hour definitely and till yet he didn’t make any call and when I am calling he is not picking my phone Such a great senior persons they are and you have in your group family, this is very much shame for us to be known as how we treated in last 2-3 days…………………….

                            At last we would like to say that till this date and time our services are not activated and no senior officers has approached us over our problems and one more thing we wish to surrender the connection as we need not require any harassment and any problems with us and when we have paid the whole amount. Kindly guide for the surrender formalities……………………

                              purchased new settop box from airtel with 12 moth mega subscription pack, all of sudden with in a week time my airtel dth service is suspended saying due to insufficient fund. reported the issue on airtel customer care 12150, seems some one stole funds from my account.

                              Calling airtel customer care 12150 is quite frustrating, keeping on hold for 15-20 mins and they says sorry sir system is down, call us latter, no manager is available to listen. its often forced to keep customer on HOLD, sounds more like there strategy
                              its been more than 48 hours and airtel people haven't rectified the issue.POOR SERVICE, BAD SUPPORT, BAD ACCOUNTABILITY and full headache.

                              and calling them now, they say our server is on upgrade. its 6PM in evening, ideal team to carry out maintenance.

                              ALSO remember the new settop box heats up like coal, and as per customer care its normal. wondering cheap product set-top boxes are being sold out by Airtel at high prices.

                              in short, give excuse to airtel DTH and go with other DTH service.

                              I had never expected this kind of pathetic service levels from Airtel.

                              I recharged my account with One year subscription option by recharging with Rs.3033 but till date validity is not updated.

                              First they told me that my account has been wrongly updated by 6 months subscription and same will be corrected with in 24 hours.

                              However even after one month same is not been corrected and i am getting repeated reminders for payment thru SMS.

                              Getting through help line is most difficult task and takes 10-12 tries .If you succeed standard reply is that systems are under up gradation.

                              I spoke to lady by the name of Nancy who was not ready to take down complaint and told me that there is no system of giving complaint number.I had to speak to another lady Ms Vidya who claims to be supervisor who finally gave service request number 37828962.

                              Last i spoke to Rajneesh who assured that validity will be updated but nothing happened after that.

                              It s really frustrating and disappointing as staff is ill- equipped to handle and solve any complaint .They are also not ready to give contact number or email Id of any responsible person.

                              Hope some one is listening and will get this corrected.

                              Till date have spoken to
                              after logging a complain here, i got a call after 7 days of posting.
                              Issue is resolved but i still keep on getting popup on screen saying "Your balance is negative please recharge." 4 times the complain has been given to CC, so far no luck.

                                Dear Sir,

                                I already gave complaint regarding recharge problem. I am the registered user of Airtel MChek. I can recharge my old number 98946***** through MChek. But cannot recharge the new 770866**** number. Showing number is incorrect.
                                I contacted to MCHek customer care. They told me "It is AIRTEL problem, They didn't update the database, that's why you are getting this problem".
                                So I have forwarded the problem to AIRTEL Customer care, But they are still not updating the database.
                                But they mailed to my mail id & messaged to my number, like "your problem is solved".

                                So Please solve my problem.

                                Regards

                                  Dear friend,

                                  Sorry to hear. Your best bet lies in throwing away this prepaid connection, destroy the sim and go for a post paid connection. Then drag this company Airtel to consumer forum and report this matter to TRAI - Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, New Delhi along with a RTI. You may contact Airtel/Trai/Press/DOT/MIT by e-mail in one go.

                                  I myself have fought Airtel successfully in getting stopped uncalled for add-ons like caller tunes, PC-secure and refund of the excess money charged though it was below Rs.50 each time. You may also endorse a copy to me and at e-mail: [protected]@rediffmail.com for helping you further.

                                    Recently since one year airtel has been deducting my balance on fake charges. When i called customer care they either say that i had downloaded some game from gclub.in of airtel live(which i had never downloaded) or that i had activated some service from airtel(which i had never activated). Each time they either cut 15,30,40 or 50 Rs balance on those charges. The Customer executive also refuses to refund my balance. My entire family uses airtel and everyone has the same complain. When i asked my friends who use airtel they say that even they had faced similar problems and were fedup of such kind of behaviour of airtel. If such behaviour of airtel continues, then there would be no option left for us other than dumping airtel. I request airtel to stop such kind of mess of our money.

                                      Hi,

                                      Airtel recently deactivated my number stating address verification failed. They said they sent SMS and tried calling me. But as per my knowledge, I never received a call or SMS. Here I may choose to reject a call from unknown number. They said they are following TRAI guidelines but here I can clearly see their address verification process is just the most junk. As just calling and verifying address will never work. Anybody can submit a fake document and then complete address verification by answering a verification call. Now they are doing a favor on my giving back same number to me by paying for a new SIM card.
                                      They just deactivated my number and sent it for recycling it. It caused me so much of inconvenience as my wife was using it on roaming when they deactivated it.
                                      They never told me how did they try to do address verification saying they have no data on it as they have deactivated the number. Such a bull$#**.

                                      Please, kick out Airtel as you may face this same trouble. Prefer some other carrier who has better process in place.

                                      Airtel — faulty process

                                      Dear Sir/ Madam

                                      I am writing to you as a very upset customer of airtel who is waiting to switch over to Vodafone or some other telecom company.

                                      The problem that I am facing with airtel is as follows:-

                                      I first bought 2 new corporate postpaid connections from airtel with the numbers [protected] and [protected] with the name of GBC and submitted all the documents required by the airtel officer.

                                      After few days the no [protected] stop working stating the reason that the documents are not complete so I contacted the airtel representative again and he came to my office to collect the documents once again.

                                      At the same time I required one more new connection so I purchased [protected] from that representative and was told by him that I do not need to give 2 sets of documents as 1 set of documents would be used for both the numbers i.e., the old connection and for the new one..

                                      But days passed by and the number didn't work so I called the airtel representative on his mobile and he told me in the morning that the number would start working by the evening and then in the evening when I called him again he used to switch off his mobile. This happened for few days and then I finally decided to call the nodal officer so when I called the nodal office, there was this representative with the name Monica who took my case and she promised me that the numbers would be working by the close of this case as I was not wrong anywhere and it was airtel who was missing something on there process and she also promised me a resolution. But somehow the call got disconnected from her side and when I called her again there was someone else and he took my mobile number and promised me that he would tell Monica to give me a call back as it was not possible for him to transfer the call to her and he also promised me that he would do a follow up on this case so that I am assured a resolution. But to my dissatisfaction. No one called me up and when I called the nodal Number for somewhere around 7 to 8 times after holding the lines for minutes I was not able to connect to anyone stating the reason that all the nodal officers are busy at the moment.

                                      So today i.e., 28th September I called the nodal number again and got connected to Monica and now what she is telling me is that the numbers are permanently blocked and if I wanted those numbers again I need to submit the whole set of documents again.

                                      Though the case was open how can you close the numbers and also do you feel that for 1 number I submitted the whole set of documents twice and I should submit them again for the 3rd time because there was some problem with the airtel.

                                      Where are those documents that I have submitted earlier gone.Have they been misused or misplaced. what should I take that as.

                                      The details are as follows:-

                                      Airtel Numbers that I purchased :- [protected] , [protected] and [protected]

                                      Airtel Representative Code:- AE120 (as written on the form)

                                      Representative Name:- Anuj Chauhan (Mobile:- [protected])
                                      Lokesh Kumar (Mobile:- [protected])

                                      Nodal Officer Name:- Monica


                                      This is just to inform you that you should go ahead and see how your nodal officers talk with the customers and are so worst in the way of saying things that it feels like that I have done something wrong on my side that they are talking to me like this.

                                      Your Nodal Officer, Monica told me that I could get a transfer of the activation charges of Rs. 600 (for two numbers) to another airtel number if I don't want to continue with the numbers and now when I have decided to leave airtel and go for other company they are telling me that I cannot get the money transferred to another number and nothing can be done about it. She is also asking me to go ahead and search for the airtel representative that came to my office for the documents and talk to him about where my documents are if they are not with airtel.

                                      Is this what you tell your customers when there is something wrong from your side, instead of apologizing and doing the needful.

                                      Please let them know that I am not worried about my Rs. 600.00 as I am running a company but called them just to have what was promised to me.

                                      But it seems that airtel has left all its customers and don't care about them anymore and also don't care about what is been done in airtel.

                                        we have recently moved from pincode 600114 to Pincode 603203.
                                        WE HAD A VERY TOUGH TIME TO GET DE-INSTALLATION AND RE-INSTALLATION.
                                        initially AirTel customer care could not tell that there is no service of Airtel in our area. after few days on repeated calls, they said we have to approach the Airtel Dealer and the dealers address and tel number will be provided by airtel by sending sms as DEALER 603023 to Airtel.

                                        We received only one dealer's address whose telephone number was always switched off. (Sri Aruna Agencies, pin 603203). Then Customer care said send sms to DEALER MORE PINCODE to airtel. This 'dealer more' SMS received a reply "The nearest dealer is already sharred. kindly try from different mobile".

                                        After wasting about a weeks time, with a local dealer's(NOT AIRTEL) help, we had installed the dish. but it need to be reactivated. we have been informing the customer care, they says it will be done in 45 minutes, 2 hours, etc. it is not getting done.

                                        I also need to update my new address to my Account. Please help us.

                                        Hello, I am exactly facing a similar problem with my connection. ERROR CODE 6 for the last 2 weeks.

                                        Customer Number - [protected]
                                        Service Request Number - 3047961

                                        I raised a request to transfer my connection from one place to the other within Bangalore. It was such a pathetic response. Once, I got the antenna installed in my new location, after a day's time, I am seeing ERROR CODE 6. This is the end of 2nd week after raising this complain with Airtel DTH Customer Care service.

                                        Till date, as far as I remember, I spoke to the Customer Care of Airtel DTH atleast 20 to 25 times with regards to resolving this issue. In fact, the field guy representing Airtel came to my new location 3 times to resolve this. He could not do anything. There is NO ACTION till date from Airtel DTH.

                                        I remember Mr. Guru Prasad from the escalation department of Airtel DTH promising me to resolve this week last itself.

                                        Some representative from Airtel whom I spoke to the field guy informed me that my validity is expired. Immediately, today, I called up Airtel DTH customer care to recharge my account for 3 months (around Rs. 900). For every interaction, the standard acknowledge which I get is to wait for 45 minutes or 24 days with NO ACTION associated to it. No one personally calls back and asks for the feedback. I only get stupid automated calls asking for the customer care service feedback. All such calls are even more frustrating keeping in mind the current frustrating situation.

                                        I am missing all the Football World Cup matches because of relying on Airtel DTH services.

                                        Hello, I am exactly facing a problem with my connection.I changed my connection to HD and the airtel agent told that it will be activated in 1hour but still it shows ERROR CODE 6.So please help to solve this problem.
