Airtel — lost number not able to get it once again

Hi Sir/Mam
My Name is rubal singh S/o Sh.jitendra singh and i have a real big problem regarding my No:[protected] which i took on my father's ID proof and it has always been on his name but unfortunatelly on 25 of last month i lost my mobile and i reported the FIR in the sarita vihar police station and when i went to get the same number i was completely shocked when person who was sitting in the showroom said that he couldn't give me the number as it is not on my father's name!!!
it's been 1 month now since i have lost my number and i m worried that how Airtel change the address without any varification?
Pls see to it as this is totally not acceptable and if needed then i'll take it further and ill make sure that nobody within my knowledge will be having any airtel connection in future.

Airtel Prepaid — Fuckin Hello Tunes..

Hello,

This is Bharti Airtel policy that activate bulk Hello Tunes on lacs of prepaid/post paid numbers then watch how many people try to deactivate.

Even all people try to activate still they got INR 7 for 1 week.

I'm also 1 of the such victims. But i have decided to kick their untill they returned my money.

Thanks

Airtel — Stupid Messages

I M NOT USING ANY AIRTEL SERVICE & I M GETTING MESSAGES & MY BALANCE IS DEDUCTED AS RS. 20 CONTINOUSLY FROM 1 MONTHES MY NO. IS[protected]

This should be taken up in the consumer court for causing mental stress and tension to the prepaid subscribers. Without any request how can they suddenly activate the hello tunes and charge Rs.30 and cause so much tension and stree??

Dear Customer,


This is to inform you that your concern has been noted and our team is working on a resolution. At the outset, we apologies for the inconvenience faced by you. We will get in touch with you for further details of your concern as the need arises.

TO THE APPELATE OFFICER AGAIN . NEXT TIME WOULD FILE A RTI AND PIL THAT IS THE ONLY OPTION LEFT IF I HAVE TO KEEP THIS AIRTEL NUMBER



Dear Mr Satish Pathak and Ms Jyoti Rawat

Please refer to my previous complaints to you regarding unnecessary deductions on my pre paid number for unauthorized unrequested Value Added Services. Today 08th October 2009 I have again received a message from 54321 at 11.21 am saying "Thanks for downloading Hello Tune Preview from Airtel. You have been charged Re 1". OTHER THAN THAT MESSAGE RIGHT NOW WHILE I WRITE THIS MAIL TO YOU MY BALANCE HAS COME DOWN FROM RS 129.00 IN THE MORNING TO RS 81.86 AT 18.30 HRS. I HAVE NEVER EVER REQUESTED FOR THESE SERVICES AND HAVE COMPLAINED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THAT I DON'T REQUIRE THESE SERVICES. IN SPITE OF THIS YOUR COMPANY (AIRTEL) STILL IS DEDUCTING MY ACCOUNT BALANCE FOR THESE VALUE ADDED SERVICES WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE , CONSENT OR AUTHORIZATION. IN REPLY TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS YOU HAD ASSURED ME THAT THIS UNREQUESTED UNAUTHORIZED DEDUCTIONS WOULD NOT TAKE PLACE ON MY ACCOUNT IN THE FUTURE THEN WHY IS THIS HAPPENING AGAIN ??? I REQUEST YOU TO PLEASE ONCE AGAIN LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND SEE WHY THIS HAS AGAIN STARTED HAPPENING?? I SPOKE TO YOUR CUSTOMER SUPPORT EXECUTIVE MANANJAY KUMAR WHO INDICATED THAT I AM TELLING A LIE AND I AM ACTUALLY REQUESTING THIS VALUE ADDED SERVICE. THEN HE ASKED ME IF I USE A HANDSET WITH A GPRS FACILITY. WHEN I SAID YES HE TOLD ME TO CHANGE THE HANDSET BECAUSE HE SAID TILL THE TIME I USE A GPRS HANDSET REQUEST FOR VALUE ADDED SERVICES WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY SENT FROM MY MOBILE AND I WILL BE CONTINUOUSLY CHARGED FOR THIS. I AM A MOBILE USER FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS AND HAVE OWNED QUITE A FEW MODELS AND THIS IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS SOLUTION I HAVE EVER HEARD OF. WISH AIRTEL TRAINED THEIR STAFF MORE ON SOLVING CUSTOMER PROBLEMS RATHER THAN SUGGESTING STUPID SOLUTIONS. MY REF ID FOR THE CALL TO MR MANANJAY KUMAR IS 298400. I AM FACING A LOT OF PROBLEM DUE TO CARELESSNESS OF AIRTEL SO I THINK AFTER ALL I HAVE TO INITIATE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST AIRTEL. BUT TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE I HAVE DELETED GPRS AND WAP FROM THE SETTINGS OF MY PHONE.

I AM SURE YOU HAVE MY CALL WITH MR MANANJAY KUMAR RECORDED AND I INSIST YOU LISTEN TO THAT CALL BEFORE REPLYING TO ME. I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS OF PREVIOUS INTERACTIONS WITH AIRTEL WITH ME.

IF I DON'T GET A WRITTEN REPLY AND A WRITTEN ASSURANCE THAT THIS WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN THEN I WILL HAVE TO INITIATE APPROPRIATE ACTION AGAINST AIRTEL. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF COMPLAINING TO YOU EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS SO THIS TIME IF I DO NOT GET ANY PERMANENT SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM I WILL HAVE TO TAKE SOME OTHER ACTION BECAUSE I CANNOT LET AIRTEL DO WHATEVER IT FEELS LIKE WITH MY MONEY.

I THINK AIRTEL IS TRYING TO JOKE WITH ME AND THEY DO NOT TAKE THEIR CUSTOMERS SERIOUSLY.

Today again in the evening I got charged Rs 45 for subscribing to hello tunes and downloading song without my knowledge or authorization. Spoke to Mr. Rajesh who said I am telling a lie and I am doing it from my end. AIRTEL wake up this is happening due to some fault at your end.

Airtel — Not Able to use the Value Added service GPRS

Hi

My name is Monib Khan ,
My Airtel Mobile No:- [protected]
I have taken the GPRS service to access the internet on my laptop .. Service is activated and amount is deducted from my Account .. i get the setting and saved .. But while i am checking the usage status its still showing the 0 MB ..
When ever is use the service amount is deducted from my Current Account ..

I called the customer service more than 20 times .. once its get connected and they assure me that your prblem will be resolved in 24 hrs ..
and after that i am not able t get connected to custmer service (121) from the same number .. they put my number in DNC list.. and after 24hrs I am on the same page ..
Again next day i call to 121 and the reply is same ..
then i call from landline number to [protected]..
they repeat the same asking for again 24 hrs ..
one day a lady name puja she told me till 15th your problem will be 100 % resolved .. Till that day i did't call to them .. on 15th also my problem is on the same page . then again i call to 121 this time their commitment change the guy name pankaj told me in the Next 24 hrs Either ur problem will be resolved or U get the amount back in ur account and fresh u activate ur service..
Again after 24 hrs prblem is same . No changes ..
Today Again I call to [protected] the girl name puja pick the call i explain everything .. during the call she ask me to hold for wile a minut so that she check my details and after holding the call for 2 minuts the call get disconnected..

I really told you this is the worst exp with the Airtel Customer service ..
I dont know what to do whome i shuld contact .. I went to Airtel Outlet they r also helpless on the issue ..
I request any one from the world kindly take the necessary action for those pepople who r not resolving the issue and making the false cmmitment .

she hold the call to talk to some seniour person..
What Airtel is doing..
I am Really fed up with the Customer service .. ............

AirTel — Security Deposit not received

I HAD TAKEN A CONNECTION FROM AIRTEL[protected] TN CIRCLE

WHERE I HAD SURRENDERED IT ON 4TH APRIL 2009 PAYING ALL MY OUTSTANDING & UNBILLED AMOUNT.

BUT DUE TO AIRTEL SERVER ERROR SINCE 5TH APRIL TO 20TH APRIL THEY HAD PROCESSED THE REQUEST ONLY AFTER 20TH

LATER THEY HAVE SENT ME A BILL FOR 620 & THEY R NOT RELEASING MY SECURITY DEPOSIT PAID RS.250

I had installed a broadand connection on 05/03/2011.....and paid rs.500 as security deposit...for a data plan of rs 649..(airtel broadband) and due to some problem i cancelled it few days after the connection was cancelled before it was started....since then i have not been refunded my deposit as it was promised by the salesman who booked the connection....i have a proof in the form of receipt....THE RECEIPT NO. IS 1586025........AND SEF NO. WRITTEN ON IT IS 2660702....THE CONNECTION IS NAME OF mr.RAJENDER NAYYAR......
i have called up customer care many times and they are not responding to the situation...this is least expected from such a big company.

Airtel Postpaid Connection — Hello Tune service

I would like to mention about a serious issue with a service provided by Airtel Hello tune. I am a new customer of Airtel using its service for past one month.

Issue:
I made a call to my friend. He had a hello tune activated in his mobile. My loudspeaker on the mobile was on.
As he was not picking up the call i thought of checking my unbilled amount for which I dialed (*121#).

That’s were the problem starts
Airtel has service were if the user presses * key the hello tune which he is currently listening to gets set has the callers hello tune for which they charge around Rs. 40/-.

You wont even get any warning or message before they activate this service.
Every thing should have a systematic procedure of activation. See i was not at all aware of this service.
Then I contacted the customer care they told they will resolve the issue in my next month bill.

When I deactivate the hello tune service I had to go through a list of warnings and messages after which they have deactivated. I think they should do the same while activating the service as well before charging....

Airtel Postpaid Connection — Wrong billing & Change of Plan

My Aitel mobile connection no. [protected].

For the past two months I am under Rs.150 Plan. I am paying the bills for the months of February & March 2009 on the payment plan. Suddenly, for the months of April & May 2009, I have been billed under different Plan (Rs.499 Plan) without my concurrence. On an enquiry with Call Centre officials, I was told they have updated their old records and I was put under the Rs.499 Plan, which was unwarranted. They have not referred the Present Payment Plan while updating their records.

It is requested that the Bills for the months of April & May 2009 should be under Rs.150/- and send the bills to me for payment. I should not be penalised for no fault of mine and I have to be informed before changing any Payment Plan before hand. They cannot unilaterally change the Plan according to their wishes without my express consent.

Post Paid — Worst service and service activation

The service from airtel is getting worser day by day. I have taken a new connection, They required more details and said that they will send a person to collect the details, None turned up they deactivated the Outgoing calls and when i went to the office, they behaved rude.

TIll today (From 5/jun/09 till /jun/09) my service was not activated. Customer service was not ready to answer...

My number is [protected]

hi sir/madam,

As i had the post paid sim in our service.I want change post paid to prepaid in the same number. My number is[protected]. the current status of my number it shown "sim registration failed".I want to continue with same number in prepaid service. I want immediately pls take action immediately .

i had made online purchase for new DTH connection on 25th october 09 , the amount got deducted from a/c ( 1800 Rs. ) , but still i did not got any confirmation code from airtel site. on calling airtel customer careseveral times , they are asking for customer id , which i have not got. When i approached airtel office in delhi ,the executive told me that they did not handle online complains and was saying these type of problem occurs frequently with airtel.

till date i have not received airtel DTH .
i strongly advice to all the readers to stay away from airtel DTH. ( and make online payment at your own risk )

Airtel DTH — Regarding online payment

I had made an online payment on 25th october 2009 for installation of new airtel dth connection , but after doing payment ( online) , i did not get any airtel website transaction id , however amount was deducted from a/c.

i would really appreciate airtel , for installation of my dth connection on time.

however for claiming of 15% cashback offer , i needed , airtel website transaction - id , i had mailed to airtel dth, but did not got response. and customer care is not able to solve the problem.

i have request instalation 4 NOV but airtel not instalation on 28 nov so i sead airtel dth has verry poor sistem in india poor poor poor poor

Hi,

The same thing happened with me today and please respond to below mentioned points:

Have you got the DTH connection on time at your residence?? By whom you have been contacted for the delivery and have you got 15% money back??

Thanks and regards

Hi,
I am Chandrakant.
Customer ID - [protected]

I am a user of Airtel DTH. Airtel is the worst Service provider I have ever seen in my entire life!!! I took new connection on 6th Aug 2009. I paid 2200 Rs & it was told to me that I will get 3 months subscription free. It worked for 2 months properly. But suddenly on 21st October 2009 the error message appeared on my screen. The message was "The view card is not authorised & etc...".
Second day I called their customer care toll free no. After almost half an hour I connected with their customer executive. He told me that this problem occurred because my balance is negative. So i asked him that why my balance is negative. Then he explained that somebody recharge for 100 Rs. on my account by mistake & then withdrawn that recharged amount from my account. So that is why my balance is negative. So I told the customer executive that even if balance is withdrawn from account but my account should not become negative. Whatever recharge was made to my account by mistake should be withdrawn but my account should not show negative balance. So he agreed upon that & created a complaint for me. Complaint no. 1288195 & told to me that the issue will be resolved by tomorrow morning i.e. by 23 Oct 2009 morning. I checked the TV in evening on 23 Oct 2009 but still the same error message was appearing on screen. Then again I called them. This time customer executive told me that problem will be resolved by tomorrow morning i.e by 24 Oct 2009 morning. Untill 24 Oct 2009 night TV was not working. On 25th Oct 2009 I got a SMS on my registered mobile no. that problem have been resolved. So I checked the TV but still it was not working . So I called them again on 25 Oct 2009. Please note that every time I used to call Airtel customer care toll free no. it took around half an hour to connect to customer executive. This time they told that problem will be definitely resolved by 28th Oct 2009 & told me that my complaint was by mistake put under wrong category & created a new complaint. New complaint no. 1313686
Untill 29 Oct 2009 my DTH was not working. Again I called them. Every time they told me that the problem will be resolved by tommorrow. But still today Airtel have not solved my problem. It is is the worst service provider I have ever seen in my entire life.

I am seeking help from Government. Government should take some strict decision against the people who are cheating the common man. Who will pay my 2200 Rs back to me? Is there anybody listening to my voice?

I have a motorola z6 phone and I am also facing the same problem. I sent a request to airtelpresense but there was no solution offered from Airtel. They just said according to the list provided by TRAI to them my IMEI number is invalid.

Though the intent behind this is right It all looks like a scheme trouble valid customers as they have not thought any good solution for them other than coughing up money.

hey!airtel where did u get those imei database? according to numberingplans.com, my imei[protected] is valid. but airtel u have sent me my imei is invalid. pls improve ur imei database!
why should i go for 2 get new imei, as i hav really a valid imei? i need solution

i think its a fake complin simply to charge money. dont follow it

Same here I have Motorola Z6.. I have same problem. Service provider Idea Cellular.
No one is taking the responsibility. Can anybody help in this?

SAME PROBLEM!!!

I also got the same message from airtel..my imei no is [protected]..SOMEBODY please help the customers...

I'm also surprised that Airtel couldn't recognize any of my phones! I used a one year old LG VU and Airtel sent me a message that I've an invalid IMEI and I should pay 200Rs (ofcourse, to a Govt authorized agency!!) for a new IMEI.

Then I switched back to my old cell phone (Sony Ericsson) that my parents were using for past 3 years. Still Airtel has blocked outgoing calls now, only incoming are allowed. I'll talk (i mean fight, as always) to Customer care tomorrow again... it is just frustrating that they couldn't recognize the same phone that they had allowed earlier. Until last week I'd fight with them regarding unwanted so-called 'value-added-services'/robbery even after signing up for Do Not Disturb!!

As with others, both my IMEIs are reported as valid ones by numberingplans... I'm just venting out now, will update the status tomorrow.

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

yes... same here.. i also received a similar message and i have valid nokia phones. i sent sms to 121 (IMEI space first 8 digits of imei) and got a reply saying the imei is valid. When i called customer care.. they are not sure of what to do and even if we try to explain them, they just say go to registration centre or hang up. I also talked to the registration centre fellows on phone and enquired ; they clearly mentioned that the registration is only for korean/chinese phones and not for branded phones like nokia. They are able to understand but not the airtel customer care reps.

not sure what to do...

Even am facing the same problem. I bought Motorockr Z6 at Univercel, Mysore. My IMEI number is [protected]. getting message from Airtel that my IMEI is invalid. Not sure how to go ahead with this issue...

Airtel,

Airtel is sending messages that i have invalid IMEI no. My mobile model no. BR711 and it has valid IMEI no., but i got message from airtel customer care that my IMEI number is invalid.My IMEI no. is [protected]. My Mobile no [protected].

I checked my IMEI no. at this web address. http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr

it is saying my mobile IMEI no. is valid. plz. look into the matter.


Thanking You
Feroz

i m using motorola rock z6.i ma also facing same problem of getting invalid imei number even my imei number is register i have contacted with airtel gallery but they have said its only for china moblie and told me to meet near motorola center plz help me out get me some solution as early as possible.

I have China model mobile phone. I received the message that my IMEI number is not valid and I have to get new IMEI by paying Rs 199. hw to pay the money pls given registration centers in trichy

Same here, I have a valid IMEI number for my Sony Ericcson as well as China phone. Airtel has rejected the IMEI of both these phones. This is not the firts time Airtel is cheating customers. Similar incidents ahve happened in the past regarding talktime plans where they will suddenly stop giving full talktime and they pocket the excess money. Looks like after Tata Docomo has come into the market, Airtel is looking for cheap ways to make money. Imagine 50% of the Airtel customers paying 200 buck, definitely the amount will be huge in the Airtel accounting books at the end of the financial year. I have decided to change to Vodafone which is much more ethical in terms of looting money from cutomers. What a shame A.R, Rehman is actually promoting such a company.

I have purchased a IMATE(PDAL) with valid IMEI no. 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.
I think this is BUCK in your data base . Solve this problem ASAP

i have a LG KG 195 mobile and my the airtel show that it has a invalid IMEI number.
LG is a brand company and not have a invalid IMEI number.
Now i m where complain for this



in consumer form or...

Even I have the same problem. I have Motorola Rocker Z6 using for more than 1year. Today Airtel has blocked my services. I have checked my IMEI number with http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr

there is no problem at all with the IMEI number.

I didn't get any message also from the Airtel. Please help!!!

I have a motorazr V8 phone with a valid IMEI no. I checked the validity on numberingplans also & its very much valid... however today Vodafone has disabled my connection saying i need to register- they are not willing to take any responsibility or give any solutions even when i told them that i have a valid IMEI no... i cant understand how they can harass genuine customers. Not sure which database they are using to deactivate the connections.

chaina mobile imei solution please.

My Moto rokr Z6 also banned by Airtel. When I send IMEI details to Airtel, they replied that it is valid IMEI. But from Nov 30, I am not getting GSM service from Airtel. If even such a big company can not distinguish IMEI's validness, it's a shame for the telecom sector and it's professional. I stopped using my Airtel connection, rather I bought a new connection with other service provider and bought a new basic mobile phone at low cost and It's working fine.

I completely agree. My Imate PDAL phone is also being rejected by Airtel now.
