UNSUSCRIBE AIRTEL FRIENDS CHAT, MY NO. [protected]

AirTel — UNSUBSCRIBE AIRTEL FRIENDZ CHAT

Madam/Sir:
For the past 4 months, I am being ripped off money from my account. I am being subscirbed for the Airtel Friendz Chat which I have not subscribed at all. It is a crime to steal when I have not subscribed at all.
I have called 121 to unsubscribe it but the matter turned to deaf ears. Either the Airtel employees are not trained to understand the complaint or just don't care. Would you please step in & stop this nuisance.
Thank you,
Mrs.Aparna.

Dear All Respected, (date of post 18/08/2009)

To my HORROR of horrors, Airtel has started another UNSUBSCRIBED service wherein they are deducting Rs 1 per day. Despite of my mail to Airtel with copy marked to TRAI officials in my last post, Airtel has the courage to start yet another unsubscribed service on my number on 16th August 2009.
This is really pathetic on behalf of the country's telecom regulation. I think it is pointless to speak to their service operator or to their 121 service.

In comparison, I will state that Reliance wins hats-off to their Customer Service approach. Reliance has an office where their customers can see a face of Reliance service's which is - The WebWorld. Even if Reliance activates any service without the concern of their customers, they are kind enough at their Webworld to service the customers.

I hope Airtel upgrades its service levels to retian its Customers and reverts to me on the above complaints.

I have switched off my numbers and am too SCARED to start the numbers not knowing what other UNSUBSCRIBED services may start automatically. In case Airtel wants to contact me (since I have switched off the numbers [protected] and [protected]) they can reach me on [protected].

Regards.

REMINDER 2. (Airtel please note our pleas.)

I do have received an reply from Airtel but their are not clear whether they stopped the VAS services from both my numbers [protected] and [protected].
And they are not ready to refund my money.

Airtel please note that I will certainly not start such useless, worthless VAS services on both my numbers.

I guess Airtel is not living up to its global name. It is really confusing on the standards that are being implemented in the company. Airtel seriously needs to reform their revenue strategies and should not comply to such heinous activities to generate funds for the company at unfair cost to their customers.

If all of their customers moves away from Airtel then what will Airtel do? Airtel need to bear this in mind.

KINDLY REFUND MY MONEY.

Regards.

Dear Mukesh,

Has your issue been resolved?

You have taken a good step to expose irregularities by the biggest telecom operator. Having said that, I dont believe, you would get justice, as they only focus on selling more SIM cards, and not believe in retaining their existing customers

former AIRTEL user

Hi Gaurav,

No. I have not received any clear correspondence from Airtel.

And Yes, I think you are correct in stating Airtel's mindset and strategy. Only sell no service.

Regards.

Dear All Respected, (date of post 27/08/2009)

REMINDER 3. (Airtel please note our pleas.)

Still no proper response from Airtel.

I am not sure whether the useless, worthless, meaningless services of Airtel has been stopped on my numbers [protected] and [protected].

hi,
Can any body plz suggest me how get rid o[censored]nauthorised VAS from this CHEAT company called AIRTEL !!

Same problem as that of Mukesh. And quite sure Mukesh might not have had any replies. Fed up of carrying AIRTEL mobile. No point calling 121 service. Worthless service of the CHEAT company.

Airtel — unsolicited subscription to vas

my name is suresh bindhumadhav and my mobile no. is [protected]. Suddenly one day an sms comes which says "congrats you are now subscribed to yuvraj blog for Rs.10 for 30 days.dial *5550* to listen or to unsubscribe. first of all i have not subscribed to this service and when i try this no., there is no option to unsubscribe. when i tried to sms STOP to 121, i got a message to reply with the serial no of the service i wish to stop and when i did that i repeatedly got message, "that is not a valid response". I wish to be unsubscribed from this value added service which i did not subscribe to.please help me to unsubscribe from this.

Airtel — Unwanted subscription to VAS

I bought one Airtel sim some 7 months back. I have repeatedly, almost 3-4 times, requested Airtel to not put my number in any kind of promotional calls or sms, to put my number in DND category. But till date they keep sending me all kind of sms, and top of that they SUBSCRIBE me to these services WITHOUT ANY CONSENT from my side. It has happened many times before when I had to call 198 and request them not to do such robbery!!

This is indeed daylight robbery... Most of the people in this town are simple villagers and private companies like AIRTEL keep SUBSCRIBING them to such services on their own.

Today when I try calling 198, it asks me keep punching my options through keypad then thanks me and say goodbye!! What's wrong with this country??

Someone from airtel has to take ownership and STOP THIS ROBBERY from these innocent villagers who have no idea of whats happening. They are too innocent even to complaint... THIS IS GRAVE SITUATION... Morals of the companies are going down the drain... perhaps they dont even know that there exists something known as Business Ethics...

Thank you for your response Rajesh. But I had contacted the nodal officer and she convinced me that Airtel will take care of this. So I will wait till any such thing happen again, if ever.

I would suggest all the people who are unable to get their issues resolved by the customer care center to contact Nodal officers (that is the first escalation level). Hoping for better services.

Airtel — Wrong claim of usage and disconnection

Sir/ Madam,

I have been asked to pay for services and calls to the extent of Rs.7527/-, this the company claims to be my usage in 5 days for services and downloads which Airtel claims that I have not done, whereas my credit limit is only Rs1400 and my handset is not compatible to any such download services ( airtel Live ).

Airtel has now disconnected my phone without any intimation.

Pls help this is pure coersion and blackmail and mental torture.

My airltel # is[protected], I have using this since Dec 08 and my avg usage has been less than Rs800

Regards
Anil Rajput

This is a mental and financial torture towards the consumer even before the official launch of the product what to talk about thereafter.

Airtel — Wrong disconnection

I have problem with Airtel servics. The following is the text of complaint I have written to them BUT TO NO USE! . Can any one help.?
Solve/write me at : [protected]@yahoo.com....
[protected][protected][protected][protected]------Dear,
The following is the ordeal I face with Airtel's services. But as per Airtel may be an enhanced experience for me with Airtel!!
To narrate the pain:
I bought the number [protected] on 18th Sep 10 from Lalitha Communications, RTC X Roads, Hyderabad,AP submitting the duly filled application along with address and identity proof docs etc. The number was not activated till 1st October. I could get it activated after a many visits to the agent and writing many mails to Airtel (I can produce all the mails if need be)
Secondly, Calls were barred on the mobile since 13th Oct 10 stating incomplete application. The connection was restored on15th Oct 10 only after exchange of heated mails with Airtel and personal visits to Airtel agent.
Again the calls were blocked on the mobile since 21st Oct 10 without stating any reason and were restored after writing to Airtel .
Worstly again, since 2nd Nov 10, calls were blocked with a message that the number is invalid. I have written to Airtel at [protected]@airtle.com on the same day with reminders on 4th, 8th, 10th,11th Nov 10
I also visited Airtel Office at Begumpet, Hyderabad on 13th Nov 10 and lodged a complaint with one Ms Guna (on 123) who informed me that the number became a free number due to non-usage. They insisted me to submit all documents and photo afresh. I denied because it is a new number and I got the connection only after I submitted all valid papers very recently. She assured me to do the needful before 3:00 PM of 15th Nov. I was given nodal officer's email id for further escalation. On 14th Nov I got a reply from Airtel mentioning that the disconnection was done due to non-usage, asking to submit all docs and there would be activation fee and security deposit for restoration.
On 15th Nov 10 I wrote to Airtel copying to nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.com mentioning that their claim of disconnection due to non-usage was wrong as we were using till disconnection and hoped it would be resolved.
On 16th Nov I got a message on my alternate mobile to say that disconnection was not wrong and no concern found. On the same day I wrote to airtel again challenging their claim as we were using the mobile till 28th Oct until disconnection. I informed that I can prove it by providing the call logs from SIM card data and requested them to verify from the call log data on the servers.
On 17th again I wrote to nodal officer asking to take action on this immediately and requested for next level of escalation to prove the continuity in usage and to disprove their claim.
There is no reply or action and the number still remains inactive.
In this connection, I would re-iterate to you (hoping you are next higher level authority) that:
1. The connection is very new and we submitted all relevant geniune papers and as such we need no resubmission of papers.
2. Your claim of disconnection followed by non-usage is wrong and we have been using till 28th Oct and disconnection was on 1/2 Nov 10. I have the SIM card data to prove. Your system could be buggy. Please verify from back end call logs but not the system your call office/front office people use.
3. The disconnection is wrongful, unwarranted, unreasonable and for no fault of mine, so your claim is wrong. As such I need not have to pay activation fee/deposits whatsoever.
4. Request you to look into this immediately and restore connection at once.
5. Airtel's unprofessionalism in customer service and non-ownership of issues raised by customer had put me amply to utmost discomfort and waste of time.
6. Only standard automated replies to mail are being sent with no action. 24 hrs standard SLA is mentioned to solve but no hopes of a resolve even after waiting inadertently longer time.
7. No transparency for further escalation or no contact number of customer care are provided despite requested.
8. PLEASE RESOLVE THIS AND PROVIDE THE SAME NUMBER BACK TO ME
AS THIS IS PUBLISHED TO ALL STAKEHOLDERS FOR COMMUNICATION.
9. PLEASE APPRECIATE THAT I AM BUSY PROFESSIONAL WITH TIME TO SPARE FOR OTHER WORK BEING PREMIUM. AIRTEL'S UNPROFESSIONAL APPROACH PUT ME TO MAXIMUM DISCOMFORT
10. LET ME KNOW CONTRACT OF NEXT LEVEL ESCLATION.

To whomsoever it may concern,

This is to let you know that I have been facing issues with my


telephone number [protected] for last 3 months, as some time its not working sometime lots of


crackling sound is there due to which my broadband connection drops sometime its not connected


and most of the time its very slow .Due to my busy schedule most of the times I am not able to


complain for the same aswell, cable has been changed twice outside the house in within three


months so what I should assume in this case that being a world renowned company Airtel uses the


worst quality of product or it could be due to work is not completed in proper manner by the


engineers due to which I being as a customer is suffering .I should be compensated for all this


inconvinience I had regarding the service .


In reply to this I recieved a call from nidhi(Corporate office) on 14.12.2010 at approx 15.25 on


[protected], but the call expirience was very bad as I explained her the issue that I have been


facing the issue for last 3 months as it has been happening since the cable was changed outside


the house in Oct'2010, I explained her that I didn't had time to use the conection for last 3


months due to which I was not able to compalint for the same as I was out of station for most of


the time and my doesn't know anything about the complint procedure, Hence I am complaining late


.I informed her that I need compensation for this inconvinience that I am facing for last three


months .I have been using the connection for last 8 months and I have never complained in the


past for compensation, but now since I am facing the issue so I should be compensated, I said as


per the engineer my telephone instrument is faulty and I would require a new instrument for the


crackling sound issue on the landline, but the dropping connection and slow internet connection


still remains the same .I informed her that inorder to use the service for making calls and check


the landline connection I need a landline instrument Foc, and I should be compensated for the


problem Iam facing for last three months .She said that she would be able to provide the landline


instrument Foc in leu of compensation but would not be able to provide any other compensation


will get back to me regarding the same .She called me back and informed that she wont be able to


provide me any kind of compensation as there is no complaint logged .I said is it my duty to keep


chasing the fault, She said she can only book the engineer appt cannot do anything else .Then I


told her that I would like to cancell the service, and she gave me options to cancell the service




Now the engineer was there at my house today on 15.12.2010 at 13.00 hrs and they still working on


it




In last I would like to say I have never expected this kind of responce from such a renowned


brand name that the customer care reprensentative don't know how to deal with customers .These


things leave a bad Impact on the company's name.In future I have decided that I will never go for


any AIRTEL product and never recommend anyone for the same .


I recieved a reply regarding the same but I have never espected as the way it has been sent, I


informed that I was out of station for approx 45 days due to which I was not able to check the


service and when I was here I was getting the same problem as I had in the october.So presumably


this is not working since I reported the fault in the first instance.Never have aspected this


kind of reply I know my rights as the customer .Will make sure will go further level required .


The job is now completed but I have received no reply regarding the compensation, Hence waiting


for reply




I recieved a call from saloni regarding the compensation and it was only for 15 days, I informed


saloni that I have been facing this problem for last three months, she told me she would check


and revert it back to me, I discussed the landline instrument issue aswell I questioned her that


if in future I would get any problem on the landline how would I suppose to know since I dont


have working landline instrument available .She told me that she wont be able to arrange for new


landline instrument but can manage to send the refurnished one or the old one, I agreed with that


but then I recieved a call from kuldeep stating that would be sending someone to to connect the


instrument and he informed that there would be charged incurred if I would be sent a instrument &


I detailed him regarding the discussion I had with saloni he informed me that he would be


escalating the case to the further level.






Now I would like to know is it a right kind customer service that airtel is giving to the


customers by giving the customers false commitment, I would would really like to take this matter


to the highest escalation deptt in airtel as I do have the recoding of the conversation that I


had with saloni.




I would like to say that I am very dissatified by the way my query has been handeled






Thanks &Regards

Airtel — false address Verification report

I dont remember exactly but it may be the 1st or 2nd of June 2009, when i went to the airtel outlet named mobile shoppee at Gandhi bazaar, Bangalore to get my prepaid connection migrated to postpaid. Everything was fine till then, i signed a form got a new sim which i was supposed to insert when the account was activated and an executive was to come to my office the next day to collect the docs and the money(Rs.500).
The executive came, i gave him the papers he wanted and RS.500, i asked him for a receipt for which he phoned his office and they conveyed me that a receipt will be generated after the account was activated. Fine i believed them

The exec said that it would take at least 3 days for the migration, fine, after 4 days nothing happened so i went to their office and inquired and the reply i got was that the Sim provided to me was technically unfit so i had to be given a new one. When i asked why was i not informed till now and that too wen i have come down to the place, they had no answers. well fine that level of shoddy service we Indians have come to terms with our so called world class service providers.
New Sim New Day.
3 more days gone, surprise nothing happened(or is it a surprise???)
early morning went to their office was assured that it will happen that very day.
Again no surprises nothing happened.
Come afternoon i again visited their office, they said that a AV was done on my resi which i confirmed was done and my brother had met the guy and also i told them that i had recd a phone call frm the airtel off., regarding a visit to my business place, had given them the directions and the timing to come any time before 2:00 pm but had no visit.

They now said that they wanted a resi address proof, an executive came down to my office, i gave a signed photo copy of my Bank Pass book(which has a photo on it and is a PSU bank).
i tod the person that he will need the transaction parts too but he contacted his office and said that it was not necessary.

Again no prizes for guessing nothing happened.
I again went down to the centre and the reply i got was so shocking that it in my books it wud be termed as the joke of the century.
The mail they recd from the AV dept. was that a person had visited my office, met the front office executive and that he was refused to be provide with my details.
Now comes the joke part.
1. I am small time businessman( i run my own trading business and have no so called front office(though i wished i had one, so emphatically stressed upon by your exec.)
2.I had given the nearest land mark as Deluxe roadlines office( in your AV report it was mentioned as Deluxe bar, may be the thought process of the caller who took my details were somewhere else )

I told them clearly that no AV was done and nobody contacted me, so the guys at the shoppee told that ok give us one more day and we will see to it.

this was getting on my nerves now, how big or small a person may be but time is precious to all and sundry.

the next day they said that the report was that they tried to cantact me but the phone was not reachable, i told them that i was in the office the whole day, showed them the call register where i had received and called people from around India.

i gave them a final days time to rectify it or else return my money.

Yesterday evening they were still unable to do that, they said that the money cant be refunded before 40 days, i confronted them that how can that be when no receipt was generated and they had no answers

Airtel — verification phase

i purchased prepaid airtel connection no. [protected] on 2.12.2009. around 21.12.2009 Someone on behalf of airtel called me and said that they will come for verification and asked for landmark and convenient time to meet me. I informed them anytime after 7 pm. further i informed them that i am having postpaid connection of airtel for the past 5 years. On 23.12.2009 i received a msg stating that the company representative could not meet me and hence my services has been disconnected. I categorically deny ur msg as my house is never lockedNo representative visited my house . If at all, the the representative really visited my house, he should have immediately contacted over mobile requesting me reach home to complete th mandatory formalities. Further i am residing in the address for the past 2 decades and all the neighbors will vouch for this.The attitude o[censored]r representative is disgusting and nauseating. when i contacted airtel i was informed to fill fresh forms which i will not do. i want u to reactivate the connection immediately. i will approach necessary forum as i cud prove that ur representative did not come to my house.
