Airtel Post Paid — Mis use of call history

Respected Sir,

I , Mohan kumar A K , have been working in Cochin for the last 4years.

I have been using one Airtel mobile postpaid connection ([protected]) for last three years. due to financial problem last two bills amount can not paid. but i made a payment of 1000/- on 28th February which is collected by an executive named Mr.Anil ([protected])who guaranteed me that he will manage to cancel the barring of outgoing and incoming call till march end and for that i need to make the balance payment in the tenure. but after 2 days my outgoing and incoming calls have been barred. i have informed Mr Manoj but barring have not been solved.

then on march 10th an executive named Mr. Manoj ([protected])called me in my alternative number of [protected], and convert me to make the payment the march itself, i have guaranteed him that i should
make the payment .but on 13th march a lady had made call to my two friends having numbers (Only two informed me about this) and told about my due of payments and asked my contact details but i have already give my alternate mobile number and mail id [protected]@gmail.com to Airtel for the best communication which has been used by Airtel many times. But instead o[censored]sing my above number or mail id ,they had tracked my call history and called my friends without any reason because that time my alternative mobile number is active and available. i had made call to Mr. Manoj and informed the situation and my resistance to pay the balance where i have been threatened like anything.

Again 15th march Another executive who having mobile number [protected] had called and asked about
the payment.that time i have expressed my resistance to pay the balance. but after few time again my friends got call from the same number ([protected]) and discussed about the due payments where i was really so cruelly insulted .Here Airtel has purposefully misused my call history without any legal reason.

This is not for reasoning me for not making my payment but for the cruel method used by the collection team against the poor customers. Also this reveals the freedom which is given to the collection team by the service providers which is really "the hurt of my human rights". here the authority can check my history of payments details against Airtel which almost a fair till last September when my business become very bad. Three week back i joined in a new company and i will pay the balance very soon. but before that i need to get my rights regarding this kind of call history tracking and insulting me within my business and friends network.

Again i got calls to me on 26/03/10 at 11.20 am form mobile no [protected] and abuse me very cruely when i express my resistance to pay . my friends got calls on 27/03/10 for a land line[protected] ans asked about my contact details which i have already to you..

My name is Asai from Chennai

I received the same SMS in my mobile (Airtel [protected]) yesterday, that i have won an Airtel DTH set top box and was instructed to login the website http://airteldigitaldish.com I logged in and i entered my address and contact number. After submitting the details i got the message your request has been registered. Today i got a SMS from my mobile that i need to relogin to the same website to confirm my order.

I did got that message too...the guy designed this cheating must be a clever guy to collect money in this way. This is abosulutely a Prank message. Don't believe it...When airtel is giving that kind of gift free they will not ask for any of this cheap tax in some executive's account number. A little commonsense is required here.

Rajan

I too got this message.is the website http://airteldigitaldish.com a genuine one created by Airtel or by some prankster.

I didn't enter any information and before that i thought of checking it out in google and was lucky to find the above comments.

sir please send me the past 3 months log of [protected] to [protected]@gmail.com

Mera Mo No [protected] mere pata ni meri majuri ke bina koy sachem chalu kardi aur mere A/c mese 25.1.11 se roj 1 rupya dedicate ho raha he mene customer care se bat ki to vo log aek dusro ko call de rahe ho kisi ne muje sahi tarah se javab nahi diya aur customer care me bhi charge laga rahe he

dear sir,

my number is [protected] in my balance your debited rs180/-
Rs.99 & Rs.40 past week and today Rs40.
as i saw my balance today and called to customer care office they have credited Rs 40/-
I want my Rs140/- back in my main balance.

Ifaced the same issue pal...am really pissed..

Ifail to understand why Airtel keeps changing plans without providing any notification to their dealers.Ihave lost Rs80 plus the balance Ihad has been deducted.Am broke as at present am unemployed and am really upset with AIRTEL.Ireally wish to get a refund.[protected]

i am using airtel rs80 plan.But i cannot send more than 100sms a day. what is the problem?please inform. After i complete sending 100 sms a day, Re.1 gets deducted from my main balance. Is there any other UNLIMITED SMS plans? please can somebody tell me

I hae re-charged with Rs. 26 on 2nd Nov 2011 an sending Airtel Local or Nation SMS for free and others local or National @0.10p. When reached 100 SMS they blocked my SMS of that day but yesterday after few SMS they sudden deduct my main Balance. I talked with CC executive she said they provide only 500 SMS for whole period. Whom will you trust? They said before no limitation in pack only TRAI rules apply but now said 500 but before this recharge I already sent more than 500 SMS. Always wrong communication for fooling customer. I will shift to Reliance 1p sms plan by porting number. MY mobile no is [protected].

Now Airtel is sending Goondas and Rowdies to collect money who keep abusing and threatening us including my aged mother when I am not around.

Instead of being lawful, Airtel is resorting to cheap and shameless tactics of sending messages to all the number, whom I might have called at some time during those 3 years.

Besides, Airtel has been harassing some of the persons for payment or information, whose numbers appeared on my itemized call statement.

Not choice, but to go to the police and higher ups for these threats.

Excess Data Charges without Supporting Documents during International Roaming
I am a customer with Airtel Karnataka for the past 3 years+ and have been regular and prompt payer of bills. My Mobile Number is [protected].
I traveled to Japan on 27th November 2009 and reached on 28th November 2009. I returned to India on 12th December 2009. THERE IS OVER RS.5375/- AND RS.9700/- CHARGED FOR DATA, WHEN I HAD NOT USED DATA TRANSFER / DATA CONNECTION.
Again, I traveled on 19th December 2009 late evening and reached Japan on 20th December 2009. I returned to India on 23rd December 2009. I received an SMS alert on 20th December tell me my outstanding as over 25000/- On 21st December 2009 afternoon I received another alert stating my outstanding as Rs.36000/- Within a span of 1 day without using data connection, I do not know how Rs.11000/- can be the increase.
I had disputed these data charges and till date without resolution, i keep getting calls from Airtel at all times and every time i need to explain the same story to their CSRs. Meanwhile, I kept Paying the Regular Plan, Call and SMS charges.
On 17th March 2010, my outgoing calls and SMs were barred even though I had paid all the phone charges except for the above disputed amount asking them to provide breakup of the sites that I am said to have visited. Till date they did not provide me the breakup, but had barred my Outgoing facility.
I hope at least now they will resolve, failing which need to highlight this kind of money making in press and take up legally.
NOW AIRTEL IS SENDING GOONDAS AND ROWDIES TO COLLECT MONEY WHO KEEP ABUSING AND THREATENING US INCLUDING MY AGED MOTHER WHEN I AM NOT AROUND. THESE GOONDAS ARE THREATENING TO KILL MY MOTHER AND BURY HER APART FROM KILLING MY OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS.
BESIDES, AIRTEL HAS BEEN CALLLING AND HARASSING SOME OF THE PERSONS FOR PAYMENT OR INFORMATION, WHOSE NUMBERS APPEARED ON MY ITEMIZED CALL STATEMENT IN THE PAST.
THERE NODAL OFFICER DISHES OUT STANDARD ANSWERS.
INSTEAD OF BEING LAWFUL, AIRTEL IS RESORTING TO CHEAP AND SHAMELESS TACTICS OF SENDING MESSAGES TO ALL THE NUMBER, WHOM I MIGHT HAVE CALLED AT SOME TIME DURING THOSE 3 YEARS.
NOT CHOICE, BUT TO GO TO THE POLICE AND HIGHER UPS FOR THESE THREATS.

AirTel — Hello Tune activated automatically

Sir,
My Airtel prepaid mobile no. is [protected]. Today all of a sudden I received a sms stating that my hello tune is changed. BUT I HAVE NEVER ACTIVATED IT. I NEVER AVAILED THIS SERVICE. Respective amount has deducted as well. I received no proper explanation from customer care and my call was disconneted as well. I wish to deactivate this service immediately.

Even my number got deducted with automatic activation of Hello Tune service and they deducted 30 rupees first and when I sent an un-subsribe sms they further deducted 10 rupees for that single SMS...

if the CEO needs money they can come and beg otherwise ?

I received calls from Airtel office their number is 43396310 and collector was Pooja. She offered me waver of 1521 and said my phone will start within a week if I make a payment of Rs. 9400.

Though I was never agree that I have done calls for Rs. 9400 however I made the payment of this amount as I wanted my phone to start ASAP.

Now they are not starting my phone, I went to Airtel outlet several times and they say that I have an outstanding of Rs.1521. and my phone is permanently disconnected.

Kindly advice what do I do.

Dear Shri Sujeet Kumar,


I believe you need to also represent your grievances to the below mentioned concerned personnel with all the documentary evidences /details that you have, who I believe, uses latest communications techniques, hence capable of resolving your issue better than the local Airtel Branch Manager.

Telephone companies are the second biggest scammers after the worldwide Pharmaceutical Fraud.

I am on a Freedom 1699 1 Mbps Unlimited plan since December 2009. I was made to undergo a bitter ordeal to get the lousy/ unbelievably sloppy Airtel personnel to get my line up and running and they set me on a wild goose chase for two weeks after they took my money & finally activated my connection (several calls and threats later) !!

An executive from Bangalore called me on the 8th of March 2010 with an exciting new offer. "Sir we are happy to give out a new offer you are eligible for double broadband speed at a measly add-on of Rs. 100 and you get to make calls for the same amount local or STD and you will get 2 Mbps from your present 1 Mbps speed within 7 days if you opt for this upgrade." Then on the 11th of March 2010, i received an SMS that said "Pay just Rs. 100 per month and double your Airtel Broadband speed from 1 MBPS to 2 MBPS. Also get free call value worth Rs. 100. SMS DELIGHT to 53636 to activate (Sender AX-Airtel- 17:17:19 - 03/11/2010) which I opted in and right away and received a confirmation that said

"Thank you for subscribing to Airtel DELIGHT Offer. The offer will be activated and you can enjoy the benefits within 96 hours - Team Airtel at 17:29:13 the same day March 11th 2010.

I called up 121 to confirm the same and the call center executive said it would be done within the time frame that was promised earlier on and i would be billed on a prorata basis.

I again called up Airtel customer service this morning to let them know that the upgrade is yet to take effect after 12 days i.e., 288 hours later & the call center guy gave me a complaint # 30677688 and confirmed that the new plan has been upgraded at their end on the 17th and i could expect the 2Mbps speed in a day or two maximum. I get a call at 4 p.m. today and the gentleman says "Sir you had requested for an upgrade to 2Mbps unfortunately that offer has ended and you will not be eligible for the same !!

Do they think we are a bunch of Retards ?? I am posting this just to skin these wolves in sheep's clothing alive ! I for one have vowed to take these unethical marketing devils to task !

I will post in all the forums that are out there and annihilate this telephone/broadband operator and won't quit until they eat their words and upgrade my account to the promised bandwith without delay ~! The sooner the better or I will be forced to destroy the goodwill factor in the market place by starting a storm of a bone crusher campaign against this blessed company AirTel !! Thank you !
