While working with RIL I have taken Airetl Mobile connection No. [protected] (With A/C Id NO.[protected] for which the Sim could not be submitted to Airtel Surat office. Submission of same I approached the Jhansi Office and they conveyed the SIM can be surrendred at Surat office only. Latter Outsatnding on my account was cleared vide slip NO. 58221/15.07.09 at Sadar Bajar Jhansi Airtel office.
On 05.10.09 I got a call from Mr. H.K Yadav (Mobile no. [protected]) with advocate Ms. Verma (Mobile [protected]) recovery agent working on behalf of airtel with threat calls for submitting the O/S amount on the Mobile no. [protected]. It is surprise to my part that the connection was taken at my account ID with the help internal satff of Airtel only. Hence I request you to please look into the case and take legal action against concerned Airtel staff who has utilised this (Mobile NO. [protected]) and please intimate me also at an earliest.
you are also requested to please allow me to surrender the SIM available with me of my actual Mobile NO. [protected] at Airtel show room nearest to me.Kindly consider it highly urgent.

Dear Consumers,

I have a Post paid connection [protected] (Bangalore), Airtel is charging unnecessary charges as Value added Services like Games Downloades, WAP, etc., As i aware that Airtel is involved in such illegal charges, i will not use any of these Value added services. But, Airtel is claiming that i have downloaded Games and used WAP.

My First question is how Airtel is enabled these features without my written permission. I want to take Airtel to Consumer Court and punish these people for unneccessary charges.

Find the below details which are charged by Airtel :

I want to ask Airtel that Am i a fool to download these rubbish games on my mobile, even though i have 24 X 7 Internet facility at office... ?

I spoke to 121 and sent mail to [protected]@airtelindia.com and also nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in, but no such favorable reply.

If any body is faced the same problem, kindly let me know. I want to take severe action against Airtel.

With regards,

Hi,

I have taken Airtel DTH connection on 2nd Oct,2009 in Ejipura(Bangalore) for Rs. 1750 containing 3 years 'Rest of India-New Value' channel package and is assigned customer Id: [protected]. The technical team installed the setup and antenna on that day itself, but I could not see any channel, only help channel 999 is coming; getting Error Code=4 stating 'You are not authorized to view this channel'. A...

I had Airtel Prepaid Connection, Ph. No- [protected].
From that automatically Rs 184 been deducted on 2/10/09 at 1.00 pm. When I call to customer Care they said It is due to ISD CALL. but i did not call. Again at 3.30 the same happened and Rs 145 been deducted . Again the same reply i get from customer care. Customer care did not take my complain.

After that only Rs 6 was left in my Sim. At 5.00 pm my cell automatically light up and sound came saying " your ballace is so less so u will not be able to make the call" And the same is being repeted till now.

How money can be deducted without my call ??????????

from 543212 i am receving jokes every day & it is eating up my 1 Rs balance daily i had never asked to start any such service on my no it was forceful & if sms as STOP also still it is not responding now i am really FEDUP & DISAPPOINTED with airtel service AIRTEL IS REALLY BAKWAS.

I have given request for reinstallation of Airtel digital TV at my new address in Bangalore.
Each time I give a complaint a new complaint no is generated.
Customer Code: [protected]
Complaint Codes: 1144724,1155758
Moreover after every call I am given a new appointment date & time

. For the last three days( 2nd October to 4th October) I have been given atleast 10 different time slots.
Neither is my request processed nor am i getting contact details of any authorised Airtel Service Engineer.

This is simply harrassment by Airtel.

( Pl note that all payments regarding this connection IN ADVANCE has been made to AIRTEL).

As per information collected from AIRTEL site and outlet,when we purchase a new Airtel connection and recharge it with any amount,outgoing call rate 40p A2A and 65p A2other mob.implemented automatically without free of cost for 30days.After 30 days this plan will continue in lieu of deducting Rs.1.50 daily.
However, according Airtel it is optional.If a consumer likes to stop deduction of Rs.1.50,he/she should send SMS UNSTARIFF to 121 and outgoing call rate will be Rs.1.00 in that case.
I have sent e-mail to [protected]@airtelindia.com on 05/09/2009 and 28/09/2009 and SMS UNSTARIFF to121.NO satisfactory reply been received from their end.I have been insisted on recharging with new plan.I think nobody is there in Airtel to solve problems of consumer.I never experience such a treatment before.
Thanks.

Customer ID - [protected]

I am registering this complaint through mail after about 12 phonecalls over a fortnight. My problem is not rectified despite repeated requests.

I keep getting Error 2 which says that the Card in the STB is not Artel Card!

I complain, after 3 or 4 phone calls to ther Customer Care the connection works for an hour or two, and fails again. The whole cycle starts again - calls and so on.

I am fed up and am rueing my decision to opt for Airtel!

I am yet to see worse service than this!

i'm a retailer..my plan was changed to lifetime..i reported this to my dealer, he said that in our area all retailer sim was changed to lifetime.and also he said that i report this problem to his superior..still after 1week my problem is not rectified.rectify my complaint as soon as possible..(ALL RETAILER SIM WAS CHANGED TO A- A 10P A-O 50P) but mine not changed...

Hi
I have activate for Star News services from Airtel by sending SMS as StarN to 53030
I dont want this subscription now but Airtel company don't have any details for same but every time airtel is charging Rs.10 for same.Neither on internet or operator have any details for how to stop this service.Just messed up.
If possible please try to solve my problems

ive been begging airtel to give me a connection for the past 5months.
the reason why they cant give me one is cuz they don't have those blue boxes in my locality.
5 months back they said. it'l get done in 3 months.

i went the airtel store nearby and their reason is "govt has not given permission to dig"
one month back. AIRCEL dug the road for some cables.
and let me remind you that aircel was launched in Ktaka some 3 months back?

If you are an Airtel Representative, Please learn how to make a better excuse the next time a someone wants a connection!

Dear Sir,

Pl. refer below.

1. My landline no. is[protected] Faridabad) from Airtel.

2.My Ourgoing calls were barred on 5th of July,2009 without any reasons.

3. When I called up 121 it replied (answering machine said " no dues pending," Now I spoke to their call center rep. on 121 only, they confirmed that outgoing is barred due to non payments.Then I gave the proof of payments -which was paid online on 29/0609 of Rs1335.00 thru credit card and given the SMS recvd. on my Mobile from Airtel.ie.A/c No.14859242,Transaction Id-864374 dt29/06/09, 07:00:02 PM.

4.I called up again and again for complain on 121, Now they confirmed the payments but showed their ignorance for the reasons of problem. They gave me some landline no. to lodge the complain but surprisingly that no. never worked. Then they gave me complain ref. no. 21737122. and many more nos. whenever I used to call them.

5. Till date My complain was not attended. And my Outgoing were barred since 5th July,2009.

6.Meanwhile I requested to disconnect the phone -thru login on the net on their site-they never responded rather called me for the payment.

7. Now they kept sending the bills for the Phone which was not working- outgoing were barred since 5th July,2009.

8. From July 20,2009 onwards they started giving calls for non-payments of bills,rather they started chasing me 5-6 calls a day.which was really harassing. It is still happening now and then.

9. Till date they have sent one more bill for the next month.Without realising the issue they r unnecessary creating troubles for the customers who have been with them for last 7-8 years.( I have two more landline connections from Airtel and everything is working smooth,but now I am thinking of surrendering them too , its is really paining )

10. So Anybody from Airtel is listening have some care for customer then respond with a sense of care.

Thanks and Bredgs

Hi
I booked AirtelDTH thru online guided by vriti infocomon 25th July. Received a link to avail Holiday package for Goa. But the link says my Activation number is wrong. I tried to reach them by phone, mai. No response from Vriti Infocom till today.

When I contacted Airtel customercare, they distanced themselves that they are not responsible for this online trade.

How come, Aitel can allow such useless business ties with Cheaters. Beware of online cheaters.

Senthamil

Hi - I should have read the complaints registered in this forum before I went and purchased AIRTEL DTV. I've never seen such a pathetic and irresponsible customer service all throughout my life. I think if the company cannot provide a decent customer service, the govt. which gives license to operate should intervene and help the poor customers.

I am really disturbed by the servic, specially the call centre operations which Airtel has tied up with. It really sucks.I would'nt mind spending few thousdands more and get a descent service. I would like to spend some money and courier the to Sunil Mittal. I would also sincerely requests the brand ambassdors to stop promoting this product.

Regards
Sunil
