I have lodged the complaint on 29.04.2009 regarding non working of set top box but by giving some temporary solution they avoided the replacement. But finally when the complaint of hang of set top box increased i lodged complaint vide complaint no.1462701, on 11.11.2009. And without any person attending the complaint i had received a msg that your complaint has been resolved , and when on asking clarification on 12.11.2009 , Mr.Nihar, Supervisor had assured me of resolution within 24 hrs and generated a fresh comp. no.1468862 dated 12.11.2009. And on 13.11.2009 a person from OSEAN Infratech , surya nagar , Ghaziabad named Mr. Bansal came(Piyush had sent him from the service agency) came and taken away the set top box for repair/replacement with an assurance to get it back by 14.11.2009. No one had informrmed but i had got a msg again that your complaint has been resolved . And on lodging protest a fresh complaint no.1479608 dated 14.11.2009 sent. No action was taken on your behalf. And the situation get worst when your service provider on contacting informed that he is not in town and will come whenever he will return to ghaziabad. And after that neither customer care nor Piyush had received any call from me throughout the day( sunday 15.11.2009)
Hereby i inform you to return me my set top box repaired/unrepaired within 24 hrs along with compensation for mental agony of Rs. 1 lack. And this mail may be treated as LEGAL NOTICE.
You will receive the copy of complaint within a week.

This is a highhandeddedness of the company and you along with your serviceprovider is playing with innocent consumers.

As the problem was continuously increasing i called the customer care, Engineer from the airtel comes, examine the problem & said to change Set-top Box (STB). After a payment of 350/-(for STB replacement) + 100/-(as visit charge) he replaced my new STB with a very old STB (on[protected]. It worked only for a day, i again called the engineer and he gave me the another STB but that also doesn't work. after that i again registered a complaint on 14-feb-2011 and they replaced the same on 23-feb-2011.again the same problem occurs. again i informed them on 25-feb-2011 but they does not come yet.
also they provided ud the repaired one STB and not the new one.

Now i am getting totally fed up with my DTH service..please do something.

    Airtel — Overbilling of GPRS service - Postpaid user

    Hi,

    I have been using the Airtel postpaid mobile connection ([protected]) since about more than 8 years.

    On 4th Dec 2011, Airtel have activated the GPRS service of 200MB package on my mobile without my knowledge/confirmation.

    As per the package, after one month of 200MB free, they have started charging the data from 4th Jan 2012 (10 paise per 10kb)

    Once I got the bill on 21st Jan 2012, I shocked by seeing the bill of about Rs.1900+. Here they have charged me about Rs. 1300+ for 127MB of data.

    Then I raised the complaint (no.[protected] to airtel regarding the reversal of the amount, which they have not agreed fully.

    Point here is - Airtel has activated the GPRS service of 200MB package without my confirmation and they started charging for the data left and right. This is really cheating the customer. If they would have contacted me while activating then i would have opted for Rs. 98 package which gives 1GB of data free.(here i have just used 200MB + 127 MB = 327MB and they have charged so much..not at all acceptable..it really hurted the loyal customer of 8 yrs)

    I have contacted all the level of customer care representatives- 3 levels - floral, nodel & appellate. The output is they feel that it is correct but they can provide me only 350/- waiver. This is not acceptable. This is injustice. Why i should pay where it has been charged incorrectly.

    This is really cheating the customers!!!! Be customer centric to be success in the market....

      I have not subscribed to this pack and Rs.30/- was deducted from my account. I don't want this pack on my cell. Stop this non-sense of subscribing things like this and cutting money from user accounts. I want my Rs.30/- back into my account.

I have complained more than 30 times from past 7 months.

        DND
        sir, please help me, i took an idea sim in this month with no. [protected], and i think 5 or more times a same message is coming with the name - AD-AIRTEL, containing these msgs :

        "your bill dated 09-jan-11 of rs. 1679 for your airtel fixedline a/c no. 15863697 is due for payment on 28-jan-11. please ignore if already paid."

        what is this ... i dnt have any airtel connection and my idea no. is new, then hw they can sms me like this . please do something fr me, otherwise after tomorrow they will msg me little diff. frm the above, they will surely going to add the amt after due date ...

        pls do somthing fr these kind of invalid messages and calls.
        Airtel is such a fraud. Even though you're registered in DND in airtel it'll not show in National DND wrbsite of TRAI. This is because they are not actually registering. Try booking complaint in airtel website. you'll not be able to submit. Thats how Airtel have designed things to make customers not to register for DND. So no use in shouting at these peoples. Its TRAI who should act.

          Wrong Information Given by Airtel Customer Care (Tamilnadu). I have rechared my mobile number ([protected]) with ec 64 rs (1 second pulse rate). But i have not satisfied with this scheme. So i called to customer care and asked to cancel this 64rs (1 second pulse rate). One lady told me to recharge 119rs to change my plan as 10 paise to airtel and other mobile for 50 paise std 1 rupee. I recharged my mobile but it goes 30 paise for airtel. Again i make a call to customer care and asked "Why you given a wrong information to me?" that lady cooly replied i will transfer your call to sineor officer. I am waiting hardly more than 30 minutes no higher officer attended my call. I end my call and again make a call to customer care. At finally one supervisor (Parvathi) told me "If our side mistake we will solve this problem with in 24 hours."

          I am using Airtel Service more than 7yrs but today i am think Airtel Customer Care Service is so POOR. So i am waiting to see the soultion.

                Hi

                This is Arun Kumar Singh the postpaid mobile customer of Airtel mumbai. I would like to request you to terminate the services of the mobile no [protected] immediately. The reason being i am shifting to bangalore and think this no would not be beneficial over there. So please action on my request and cancel this mobile service.

                Regards
                Arun Kumar Singh

                Then I got one mail from Airtel:

                Dear Mr. Singh,

                Thank you for contacting Airtel.

                We understand from your previous interaction dated 16 April 2009, you had requested for cancellation of your Airtel number [protected].

                You can also know the status of the Service Request number by dialing *121# (toll free).

                We request you to make the payment at the nearest Airtel Relationship centre to initiate further action. The forthcoming bill will reflect the payment and outstanding, if any in your account.

                Further, please be informed that there is no security deposit in your account.

                Again I got one more mail from Airtel:

                [COLOR="Blue"]Dear Mr. Singh,

                Thank you for contacting Airtel.

                You had requested to deactivate the service for your Airtel number [protected] due to relocation to Bangalore.

                Based on the above mail I paid the outstanding on the above mobile connection Rs. 464 appx on-line through my HSBC Credit Card.

                Between 8-10 May'2009 I received calls from Airtel Anti-Attrition Department to confirm my cancellation request. I told them that I don't want to continue with the above postpaid connection as I am planning to move to another state. They told me that the above mobile number will be de-activated with 24 hour. Over the same call they offered me if I want I can keep the same number with pre-paid connection after paying Rs 50 As a service charge. I told them to cancel the above post-paid connection and send the executive at my residence to collect Rs. 50 for the pre-paid connection. I thrown away my above postpaid mobile sim after finding that services terminated between 11-12 May 2009. They told me that within 24 hr a executive will come at my residence but nobody turned up as of now.

                I raised the complaint about this through a mail. Then I got one more mail from Airtel on 11 May 2009:

                After this I stopped interaction with Airtel but In Sep'2009 I got a shocking mail from Airtel :

It has been over 8 months now and it has reached a point of harrassment where we are constantly bombarded with calls and threatened. Kindly help

                Airtel Mobile — Harrassment over phone

                Hello,

                I am a grieved customer of Airtel Mobile phone service. I took a postpaid connection in October 2011.
                I actiavted a basic postpaid connection plan of 99 Rs. and a 2 GB GPRS plan of 98 Rs for airtel no. [protected].
                I took this connection from my Company premises through an airtel agent called Kishor Dhapse.
                He confirmed me the same day that both plans have been activated as mentioned above.
                But after a day or two, i started noticing huge unbilled usage on my number. I contacted airtel customer care and asked the reason.
                They said that dont worry its simply unbilled usage. Real amount will be reflected in the bill generated at the end of the month.
                But I was not satisfied so I called them again and asked about the Plan activation.They said that only 99Rs plan is activated and other plan activated is 0,[protected]@10KB, with Usage charges:10ps per 10Kb.

                I was outraged and I conatcted my agent Kishore Dhapse. He said its not possible as he himself has filed the information, so, a 2 GB GPRS plan of 98 Rs must have been activated.
                I kept following up with them. I even turned off my Phone's data mode still the bill was getting incurred at as fast rate.
                I kept contacting airtel n they kept on incurring false bill. I didnt make even a single call from that No.

                The airtel customer care centre said that they are not responsible for any plan activation. I said ok.. I even asked them that when my phone's data mode is off, how come my usage is increasong on its own. But they didnt answer. They just field a complaint with complaint ID 40514861 saying they would revert back soon with the resolution but no resolution was provided. I refused to pay the bill unless the correct bill and resolution was provided.
                They emailed me saying the connection has been disconnected.

                In a 15 days span they generated a bill of 1640 Rs. for no/minimum data usage.
                Such is the pathetic airtel service.

                Now after 5 months, they have hired some agent who calls himself a police officer and threatening to file an unbailable offence against me.
                Can you imagine?
                This is the way these telecome companies launder money , by harrassing their customers.
                They are not answerable to anyone but we are.
                That person who called was very rude and was not listening anything. He claimed to be a police officer.
                The number he called from is [protected].
                Please look into this matter urgently or I will have to file a real case against these false calls.

                Thanks,
                Divya.
                Hi Divya,

                If possible, make sure you keep the soft copy of the bills for ur records which you are getting from the service provider.

                Regards,
                Mayank

                    This is regarding my post paid connection of Airtel mobile number-[protected]. I am using this number since last 4 yours and having good track record of payments usage of avg. amount INR 1500 to INR 2000 pm. Just on Oct 2009 at beginning i got a few SMS from Airtel to submit the documents reason this is TRAI regulation, for updation of address, they need the documents, othe rwise fix up an appointment for the collection of documents call as at [protected]. So, i called up on this number to collect the documents from my home, but the airtel representative responsed to call me back after talking with his senior, whether Govt bank statement is valid or not for address proof.But he did not call thereafter.

                    on 20th Oct 2009 i submitted my relevant documents in Radical Communication, lajat nagar delhi and called to customer care within 4 hours it was activated again at the end of the day it displays sim card registration failed. I called to customer care department many times from other network with paid service and holds me on line for a longer time, but the result is i am unable to see your details.
                    really it is very bad service from airtel after a several calls and given my alternate number for calling me, but it is not happened.

                    Bur for this disconnection i have not received from SMS or call from thier end.

                    Again on 13th Nov,09 I visit to Radical Communication to ask for the reason why my conection is disconnected, they replied my document is not submitted and pending. I surprised, because the document was submitted on 20th Oct,09 in the same Redical Communication. again they asked for the documents and filled the form, photo and documents along with a cash receipt of Rs 220/- saying it is towards unbilled amount showing. I paid it on cash and they promised it will be activated on 14th Nov,09 at evening . But so far it is not activated.

                    I called on the numbers provided by redical at 7.00 pm , they replied to call me on my alternative number- [protected], but they did not. there after they did not picked up my calls and holds it for .... and keeping busy.......... saying i am out of office etc...................

                    I am really unhappy on thier service and respond and spent a lots of time and money for this my old post paid number. At least they should understand the needs of customer and valuable time, if they don't theyhave no rights to mis commit and mis guide.

                      Airtel Prepaid mobile service is deducting unnecessary charges from available balance. and when lodge a complain in CS they are giving so many excuses aginst the charge.

                      Airtel Prepaid GPRS — GPRS wrong amount deduction

                      I have my mobile number [protected] with internet GPRS connection of 98 rupees pack and i am using this facility from last one year with no problem but since last week my amount is regularly deducted and when i called customer care they told me you are downloading mp3 from site which is not free

                      let me tell you i am using that site from last one year and still there was not deduction(with 98 rupees internet pack) from my airtel amount but since last week my amount deducted with 40, 26 and 6 rupees approximately.

                      I requested customer care dept to look in the issue but there is same response.

                      Kindly take immediate action and let me know the problem and why my amount is deducted from my account.

                      Call me on [protected]

                          Sir,
                          This is to inform you that we had installed the Airtel connection on May 2009, since then we are facing a lot of problem.At least 20 times our internet is not worked and also 6/7 times our telephone connection not worked.As on today our phone & internet is not working. We made a complaint on 26th May Complaint No.33134314.
                          Being an office this has not only been extremely inconvenient for us, we have suffered loss in terms of work time. We have also had to spend a lot of money getting and using alternate broadband connection / Data cards. Still now our problem has not solved.

                          Sir, please check the status and do needful.

                          Thanks & Regards

                            I have sent the below mail and waiting for the reply and I do not want to lose my number [protected] at any cost and it is no fault of mine as I have a validity running up to mid of 2011 with a balance of Rs. 435/- when the mobile was deactivated for some absurd rule as per the Customer care representative. Looking forward to your kind and favorable response. Thanks
                            -Abdul Qaiyum


                            Dear Mr. Sudhakar (Customer Care), Ms/Mrs. Vassim Unnisa(Chennai Nodal Officer), Ms/Mrs. Radhika Ramesh (Appellate Authority),

                            This is great gift you give for an Airtel Loyal Customer like me who has been retaining this number for the past six to seven years. Out from the blue, all of a sudden, without educating the customer about this absurd rule (check the mail below from Airtel) you disconnect & deactivate my mobile no. [protected] which has a balance of Rs. 435/- and a validity which runs until mid of 2011.

                            Buddies I am an NRI who frequently visits India. How come do you expect NRI's like me to keep up with your absurd overnight born rules.

                            You should keep the customer educated on it, a simple line like "Validity until 2011 subject to no usage clause" when customers check their balance would have helped customers like me to follow your absurd rules.

                            Play the game with the rules and then hit your legal goals. I for sure can say this rule has been floated recently as I always retain my mobile in saudi arabia and switch it on after four five months when I am back in India and it has been working fine until now. And I specifically look to it that my validity is extended way ahead to retain my number during my visits out of india. But you have stabbed me in my back with this absurd rule.

                            [protected] is just not another number for me, it is my identity in my mobile world that you have stolen without any intimation.

                            Ofcourse Intimation can't be there when it is a matter of stealing!

                            Check the history of this number, check how much money has rolled over in these past 6 to 7 years on this number and alas you give this sort of treatment to a very loyal Airtel customer like me. It is an indigestible proposition.

                            People around the world in my circle know me only by this entity in the mobile world when I am in india and all of sudden you disconnect it citing your absurd rule and I come to know of this rule only when I get hold of you people by sending reminders and then I also come to know that you have put it for sale, isn't it a theft of identity?

                            I know that I have to go through the steps to get my grievance solved by Airtel but I am addressing to all three steps in one go the Customer care, the Nodal Officer and the Appellate as a last ditch attempt to save my identity in going for sale as I am in Saudi Arabia now and I have also put a CC to my family friends in India to educate them on this absurd rule of Airtel at least they be protected and if you are not going to restore my identity to me I am never ever going to touch any Airtel product for my life. That's for sure.

                            Why the hell Airtel automated service now says that my number [protected] is not in use and invalid number when I have a validity running upto 2011 and there was a balance of Rs. 435 -

                            I am waiting for your reply on the status. Check my usage details if the service is like this for a loyal customer like me I just can t describe what to expect from Airtel which brags about their services in their advertisements. They have not even cared to reply in this jet age where information is on fingertips at the press of a button on computers.

                            I have been having this number for the past may be around 5 years Now all of a sudden it says invalid number when people try to call me on this number [protected].

                            I had kept this number switched off probably for two to three weeks as I am in saudi arabia right now. Before that two to three weeks I was receiving messages and calls on this number in saudi arabia.

                            As far as I remember it had a validity running upto 2011 and there was a balance of around Rs. 435 - Can I know what has happened and please I want this number to be back up and running soon. Help me out this problem. I will be looking forward to your kind reply.

                            -S. Abdul Qaiyum

                            Airtel Prepaid Mobile Number — Wrong billing

                            I am having an Airtel post-paid number and been charged against my own number and voice mail number while I was on international roaming. Since I have not made any of these calls (obviously how can you call yourself), I have requested Airtel to revisit the bill, but they simply refused to do it, as it’s on international billing and it can not be done.

                            Also no explanation provided on called number discrepancy. I would not recommend anyone to use Airtel.

                            Airtel prepaid mobile — Deactivated SIM despite validity till 2010

                            I am an NRI and travel to India every year 2-3 times. I purchased a prepaid connection with validity of 2 years in 2006 from a dealer in Sama,Baroda. The SIM number being[protected] and the number being [protected]. I recharged in 2008 for a further validity of 2 years and my validity was till Nov 2010. I had sufficient balace when I left India in Feb 2009. When I returned on 8th Sept. and tried to activate my SIM, it did not get activated. On enquiring from customer care at fatehganj, I was told that the SIM had been withdrawn and awarded to someone else because it was not in use for 6 months.I had given this number to airlines/ railways/banks/agents/distributors and friends. I was shocked when I called the Nodal office in Ahmedabad and was told that ' nothing can be done'. I called the Appellate Officer Mr Mrityunjay and he also regretted and asked me to complain to TRAI and Consmer Forum. The new SIM card of AIRTEL is available for Rs 50. The least AIRTEL could have done was to deduct Rs 50 since the validity that was dispalyed on my mobile was till November 2010. How can AIRTEL withdraw a number when a) validity was till 2010 b) when I had balance in my account c) No intimation has been given to me regarding deactivation.

                            I want to sue AIRTEL for damages as my bank and personal information may be going to a third party. I would like to warn all not to subscribe to AIRTEL as they are irresonsible and do not care for customers.

                            Please let me know how I can address my grievance to TRAI.
                            i want to know my sim validity.[protected] please send information as soon as possible.its very urgent
                            have u complaint in consumer are in TRAI are else ur taken the new sim pleae reply to my mail [protected]@yahoo.co.in
                            Airtel's rule is not at all acceptable (90 days Nil Usage justification to deactivate my number [protected]) as TRAI dioes not mention about this aspect whereas on the contrary TRAI regulations seems to be more protective to the consumer from this monopolistic attitude of Airtel on this aspect.
                            airtel is so stupid bcoz i bhavesh a sukhani residing in ambernath (mumbai THANE district) had buyed sim card prepaid no. [protected] in 2007 but due to my too many contacts of reliance mobile so i was supposed to buy a reliance mobile too instead of having an airtel connection.so i started using it quite less & my business is of imports & exports in textiles so travelling abroad is a must for myself & making airtel international roaming activation was not so affordable on 27.07.2010 they deleted my no. as not used the mobile no. for 90 days & not recharged since 90 dayz but all is so wrong & for that airtel must be banned for telecom providing service so i went to airtel gallery they say that we cant do anything right now & i told them to check that i m so sure that i ve recharged last month & 1 month has 30 days not 90 & incoming & outgoing calls also i have made as buyed in 2007 my no. is with so many people pls check it out & then they said that we cant check any information for this no. pls call 121 from any airtel or call 999 from gallery all two of them r son of [censored]s & [censored]s as they the same that we cant see any information in regard to this no. so what must we do i think we must be united & stop using airtel [censored]ing service & lets begin boycotting it from now.my contact no. is [protected] / [protected] / [protected] / [protected] & now i want to know what the [censored] airtel can do for this issue ?

                            Airtel — Deactivating my mobile number without valid reason

                            Hi,

                            To give the quick overview of the issue, my number was in postpaid and was requested to migrate to prepaid as per the mail sent by Corporate services team.
                            I had provided necessary documents along with the reply to them, and THERE WAS NO FORM FILLED BY ME and neither asked by corporate team to fill it.

                            Now when I check with the customer care I get a reply saying the number is deactivated permanently due to incorrect FORM filling.
                            When I have not filled this FORM at all how could that be wrong??? Then I would like to see the scanned copy of the FORM which AIRTEL customer care is talking about.

                            Regards,
                            Madhukar GJ

                                    Dear Sir / Madam,

                                    I and my father are having AIRTEL mobile connection under CUG tariff plan. I wish to put up a complain on AIRTEL company, where there is intentionally wrong levy of charges(rates) of my postpaid connection as against rates given in my intoduction letter. No one is solving the problem since last three months. Last three months I have been mentally harassed my repetative calls from AIRTEL Company regarding bill payment and disconnection of my mobile connection to me and my dad. I am even trying with Nodal agency and Appelate authority of AIRTEL (TRAI), but in vain. I have not paid two months bill , which I intent to get setoff against the excess amount paid for the wrong levy of charges. Company customer centre and all the affiliate agency are not responding till three months of my query.
                                    I am having all the proofs and have also send to the company but till now no one has responded. I want the credit of the excess amount paid retrospectively. Please arrange to redress the issue since being a sincere employee, I am not in a position to concentrate on my work. I could be contacted at [protected]. Please Help. Waiting for your positive response.

                                    Dear Sir,
                                    I have a postpaid mobile connection from Airtel. I had been outside India on official visit for six months. I have been paying the monthly bills for first 4 months through internet payment. I had missed the payment of last two months since I faced some difficulty through epayment in Airtel site. After 2 months my Airtel connection was disconnected without any intimation/message to me. My cell was on international roaming. After that when I tried to make the payment through internet it said the number is invalid and it doesn't exist. Later after coming to India I made the payment and the person who collected the money told me the sim will be activated within 24 hours. Later they said you need to give identitity proof etc... when I agreed to do that also they told one representative will come to give new SIM within 2/3 hours and it will be activated immidiately. After 3 days I haven't received any call from AIRTEL regarding this rather I have made more than 50 call to the centre who had sent representative to collect the money. I am about to go out of country again and unable to get connected through my phone number.

                                    Please suggest.

                                      Hi AIRTEL,

                                      I have purchased a Fly company phone with dual sim and dual IMEI numbers. on 12.11.09 I received the message that my IMEI number is not valid and I have to get new IMEI by paying Rs 199. I think the data base of AIR TEL is not correct. M/S BHARTI AIRTEL please look in to the matter and rectify your data base

                                      My PARTICULARS ARE

                                      You are sending message that my phone IMEI is not valid. I have fly model phone of model SL 500i purchased from The Mobile Store, Ambathur & having IMEI no. [protected] and invoice no.TN/01122/00001/5131 dated[protected]. I also confirmed with the mobile store that the set is genuine one and no need to change IMEI No. Hence I request you please arrange to correct this error by changing my imei no. in your database and provide me continuous service without any disturbance.
                                      Hi AIRTEL,

                                      I have Mobile phone of Bluetooth company having dual sim withVALID IMEI number.
                                      But on my Airtel mobile I am continuously receiving the SMS like :My IMEI number is not valid and get new IMEI by paying Rs 199.
                                      I have checked and confirmed that the IMEI number of mobile is VALID with the help of link:

                                      I Apologies, as mistakenly I place my complaint in comment box.
                                      Airtel,

                                      I completely agree with the above complaints. This is because I also own a new E63 Nokia handset and I am also getting calls and SMS from Airtel. How can Nokia Priority dealers sell mobile phones with invalid IMEI numbers. Airtel has to look at this seriously and relieve the pain of its customers.

                                      i have Dual sim mobile named "io-sound i009" i asks to dealer from where i purchase the phone he said me that it has Valid IMEI that is [protected]. If this is not a Valid IMEI thenfrom where i can get a valid IMEI in Indira Nagar Lucknow
                                      "My mobile No. is [protected] and I am receiving msg. from you that my mobile IMEI no.is invalid and to change IMEI no by paying Rs.199/-.

I also confirmed with my mobile store that my IMEI number is valid one. But when I use *#06# to display my IMEI in mobile it shows a wrong IMEI no.[protected] which is invalid and it shows that my IMEI no.is entered in your database erroneously. Considering this I request you please arrange to rectify your database by replacing my correct/valid IMEI number and provide me undisturbed services.

                                      I anticipate that you will take early action on this complaint."
