Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi All,
I'll bring to your notice that AirTel DTH Customer service and complaint resolution is too worst. After recharging I couldn't view any channels. I got an error signal locked error code B001.But they are deducting money from my account. Since October 13 I'm facing this problem I called customer care more than 10 times. These are the request no's I raised. The interesting part is they will close the request no's without my knowledge and without any resolution :)

Area service manager Keeps his mobile Switched OFF ([protected]). Guys if any one knows the e-mail ID of regional manager or country head please share with me. ([protected]@gmail.com)

I'm ;located in Bommanahalli Area, Bangalore.

I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT TO GO FOR AIRTEL DTH. My intention here to right this is no one should not face such problems like this in future.

Hi,

I have been using Bharathi Airtel Post Paid Connection since long time. I have 2 connections with me one of which is not being used much during the recent past. I therefore decided to surrender this SIM Card.

I went to Airtel office in NR Colony, Bangalore to surrender, but they did not accept giving varieties of creative reasons for not accepting the SIM. When I made repeated visits, I was told to send a mail to [protected]@airtelindia.com requesting them to cancel the connection. I got reply from this email stating they will get back to us in 48 hours time without even mentioning if they have accepted my request to inactivate the SIM. I did not get any response from anyone in the next 48 hours. When I gave a call to one customer service executive through 121, he informed me that the request was still open and no action was taken on this. He had no reasons to explain the cause for delay. He then told me that the connection may be inactivated in the next 10-15 days time!!

When we have a post paid connection, every day counts for the billing and this is a cheap trick to increase the bill amount. When I ask them about the refundable deposit of Rs.400 they collect when we take a new connection, they bluntly say, it will be adjusted. I do not understand what adjustment here means when we have zero outstanding amount.

When I enquired with my relatives and friends about this, I was shocked to know that Airtel does the same to all its postpaid customers when they surrender their SIM. My friend had also approached the NR Colony Airtel showroom for cancellation. He was given an assurance that the connection was cancelled. After several months, Airtel people from various offices have bugged him to make the payment saying that the connection was not at all cancelled.

How can a reputed organization like Airtel play such cheap tricks to make money. This is a completely illegal and objectionable attitude of Airtel. When it takes just 1 day to get a new connection, why should it take months together for a customer to surrender and deactivate a connection? The way they talk makes anyone sure that they won't return the refundable deposit amount they collect from us.

Is there no single responsible and sensible official in the Management level in Airtel who can look into such issues and stop their executives from looting customers like the way Airtel has been doing currently? Who can teach Airtel the basic business Ethics they have to follow?

Regards,
Karthik

I have recharged my mobile [protected] ( Airtel karnataka Prepaid) on 20.10.09 @ ahmedabad Airport Airtel counter for Rs.399, I have got credit for Rs.5 only.

Further I have recharged for Rs.200 on 21.10.09 , I have got the message stating that amount is credited but no talk time. I have contacted all the customer service executives ( ahmedabad and bangalore) including nodal officer in Bangalore but in vain. At present My mobile is in accessible.

I am not getting reply for my mails.

Airtel service is very very bad.I called 121 from my mobile and the operator says since you are in roaming , you need to contact karnataka customer care as we are not having your data base which will be STD for me.( but 121 auto message says any time anywhere service). Is it the service are we expecting from Airtel?

AirTel DTH Customer service and complaint resolution is Worst. I am paying for channels with no picture on the screen. Area service manager Keeps his mobile Switched OFF ([protected]). Service engineer calls and commits will come in 30 mins but never turned up and finally sends the SMS that complaint has been resolved.

I am facing this problem in Electronics City Area, Bangalore.

I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT TO GO FOR AIRTEL DTH...

I would appreciate any help you can give us - on the owner of this phone, on the procedure to lodge a legal complaint, etc. Thank you, Veer.

I have recharged for Rs.200 on 21st october 2009 at 01:12pm by knowing that i would get full talk time with zero validity.
The recharge option was sent to me by airtel service reply. and when i called customer care to know confirm/know about the offer even they said u will get full talk time with zero validity.
But now after recharging i got RS.200 full talk time but "VALIDITY given to me was 1 MONTH" But they(airtel) said there was no validity for this top up..!!

Hi I have a mobile number [protected] I am using is only for calling purpose every week from the past three months I am receiving a message "Thanks for downloading JavaGame from Airtel Live WAP Service. You've been charged Rs. 40. Enjoy http://gclub.in" From 64611040.

I have a very basic nokia phone of 200 rs in which I cannot play any games it is not possible

Actually I have not download any type of game through Airtel Live WAP service.
I want the answer ??????? Return my 400 Rs. please please please ...
Also I don't want to buy "Sorry" "Not Possible" etc by my 400 Rs.
I would like to have my refund and that with immediate effect & just unsubscribe this service as well from my number

I was using Airtel Fixed Line and Broadband connection for past 1 year at my residence which was rented.This years in August I shifted to a different location and asked Airtel to transfer the services. They said they dont provide service to the area where I shifted.Then I asked them to cancel the connection and to tell me the outstanding that I owe. They told me that the outstanding bill is for Rs 176 and I was asked to pay the bill. The representative also said that she'll not take the request for cancellation but she will change my plan to a different plan with 2 months rental waiver and after 2 months if Airtel will start providing service to this area then I will start getting the service.I said that in the meantime I will take a new connection from a different service provider so I dont need their services anymore.But the rep was adamant so I asked her to send an email concerning the same.I paid the bill for the outstanding amount on time and also called airtel to confirm that. They confirmed that they have received the payment.Now I am getting continuous calls to pay the remaining amount.And moreover, when I called cust service again, what the rep asked me is--- Is there no requirement of this service where I used to live before? Now isn't it a silly question? How the hell will I know, if there is any requirement for a connection there or not if I am no longer living there.This means that if the person who has taken the connection wants to discontinue with the services, they will force someone else to use it and if the other person denies, they will start charging the bill to the previous customer.This also means that all airtel wants is to keep on making money whether you use the service or not.I know many people at my office who have faced the same problem when they have asked to discontinue the services to airtel. AIRTEL SHOULD BE BARRED FROM PROVIDING SERVICES FOR FIXEDLINE.

Dear Sir,

This is to inform you that i Pradeep Kumar Keshari holding Airtel corporate connection no [protected], and one of my friend holding Airtel connection No. [protected]. We are holding same corporate plan group w-16. As per plan policies we are taking 1500 min free CUG talk time. We have notice that we are not getting CUG facilities as we are in same CUG plan. I have interrupt with Airtel Customer Care Executive and Airtel Nodal officer regarding this issue. As per Airtel Customer Care Executive we are not in same plan or as per Airtel Nodal Officer we are in same plan but our plan parents are different. Whereas the plan details are clearly mention in our bill and our call charges of CUG plan are same.
I feel that I have cheated and I will not get full facility as per CUG plan. Please do the needful.

This is to bring to your notice the harassment being meted out to me and my family from Airtel.
I have an Airtel broadband connection at home . On the 19th of September 2009,a man named Kamaldas who was from SERCO BPO PVT LTD Begumpet, came for collection of the bill amount which was Rs.1524/- .Since neither o[censored]s had change I paid him Rs.1500/- for which I got a receipt too. Number of the receipt is SBIOHYD[protected].

After 3 days I got a call that my bill payment was not done .I gave them all the details and they got back to me saying my account reflects a payment of Rs.1200/- instead of Rs.1500.And hence I was required to pay Rs.324/-. Again I gave them details. The customer care executive took down a complaint and said action would be taken.

After this began a series of phone calls from Airtel asking me for payment of Rs.324/-.Whether I was driving or in the midst of a meeting I was asked again and again for the receipt number when I had already provided them with the number of the collection agency representative, the receipt number etc. Again a complaint was taken down.

Rs.324/-seemed to haunt me as this still did not stop calls from Airtel.

Finally I called the person who had collected the money .He too said he had collected only Rs.1200/- On showing the receipt he admitted an error and promised he would rectify the same. After an hour he called saying the error was on their part and was rectified. I also got another call from Airtel customer care saying the amount paid was rectified and they were sorry for the error

Another day went by and again I got a call asking me for a payment of Rs 324/-.This inefficiency and irresponsible attitude of AIRTEL has caused be tremendous pain.

Since then till about 10 days ago this became a routine for me and finally they disconnected my broadband and the linked landline. I called up customer care and again went through the pain of explaining the entire story .The customer care executive as usual said "we are sorry for the inconvenience and will take down a complaint ".At this point in time I requested them to activate my landline as I have a ten year old daughter who is unwell and at home. Since both me and my husband work, we are worried about her at home and call her at regular intervals to find out how she is doing.

In spite of this they did not unblock the services. For a week, I used to call up my neighbors or housekeeping staff in the building to find out how my daughter was. I again got in touch with Kamaldas who said he was no longer in the services of the collection agency and could not do anything about it. He gave me the number of a Mr. Deepak who was their team leader and said he would be able to help me. Guess what Mr. Deepak has also resigned and was also shockingly rude saying what can he do for this error.

It is been 10 days since they have blocked the use of our broadband and landline and in spite of various calls no action has been taken. The last service request number given to me by Airtel is 25449812 given on the 15th of October.

I am in fact discontinuing Airtel services and switching to an alternate service provider.
Let me also tell you something else. I still get at least 2 calls from Airtel everyday.

Hi,

This is Abhishek Gattani from Bhilwara, Rajasthan. I have taken airtel digital tv connection in the name of "Madan lal Gattani", with customer ID number being [protected] on 15th oct, 2009, from "DIgital Electronics", Bhilwara. I took this connection under the scheme of 1750 rupees and 5 month free subscription of new value pack. At the time of payment, I asked the person to give me the recharge voucher which he refused to give saying unavailability of vouchers and told me that he would send it with the person who is coming to install the DTH. But for some reasons which I can't comprehend, he recharged my account himself for 1800 rupees and put me under 4 month MEGA PACK subscription which I dont want. Now my accunt balance is showing -50 rupees and also tellng me to recharge my account by 50 rupees otherwise my services will get blocked.

I have filed a complaint on customer care, but there has been no satisfactory answer so far (Complaint id[protected] . When I complained about this to the "Digital Electronics", he pressed me on paying remaining balance to cover up his mistake. When I refused to do so, he started behaving very rudely.

This kind of services from Airtel DTH is definitely not what I was looking for. If I dont get my complaint resolved by Thursday, I am all set to move this to consumer forum.

Looking forward for a positive reply.

-Thanks & Regards
Abhishek Gattani

Hi,

I had booked Airtel DTH in the month of April for 2600 Rs (Yarly pack)
. The booking was done through your sales call center and followed
for booking till payments done.

After i received kit with three vouchers i booked instalation but no
one turned up and never bothred to call up and informed as well. Then
i follwed up and agin booked the installation this time again i had to
do follow up instalation guy but by that time my building rennovation
work started and we could not do installation.

After this no one did bother to check wether customer is facing any
problem? why the istallation is not done? and istallation guy update
system saying " customer wante to cancell the services" and your
system deactivated my account with cust ID - [protected]. I dont
understand how come you cancel customer ID even he paid for the
services and did registration with the process mentioned.


In the mean time i called up call center no but never got
through....Whenever i spoke with the call center they infomred me they
can not help as my account is cancelled and they can not send even
send a mail to concern authorities and they are helpless. i have to
book it again with payment fees.

why is the customer service call center is there if they can not help
customers and give resolutions and they dont have propoer information
as well.. They bluff saying we dont have your updates, your account
expired, go to the distributor and mail it to Airtel or senior
authorities.. Why is the system so complecated ?? Customer shlould get
all resolutions at single point and not to go everywher asking help
and clarification.

The details of vouchers are as folows..
1. 1750/- Rs - Sr No [protected]
2. 750/- Rs- Sr No [protected]
3. 100/- Rs - Sr No [protected]

Pls help me to activate the services and get the DTh started else i
wll stop all my Airtel services forever and forced to go to Cosumer
court.

Regards
Sudarshan
