We had requested 1st by telephone on 6 August to have our plan changed from 1299 Business Combo to Impatience 1299. We were informed by the Airtel staff that since their system was being updated we should email the request to “wecare.[protected]@airtel.in”and assured us that after this our plan will be changed to Impatience 1299 within 48 hours. Following the telephonic exchange, we sent an email dated 6th August for the same to change our plan

At this point we understood that Airtel will do the needful and hence started using the internet as per the new plan Impatience 1299.

On 14th Sep 2010 we have received the bill amounting to Rs 14, 509.84. Upon further investigation it was noticed that Airtel failed to change our plan from 1299 Business Combo to Impatience 1299. We have written to Airtel customer service the same day informing you of the error with a request to rectify the same. We received an email from Airtel explaining that Impatience 1299 is not applicable to our account.

We were not told anything to this effect when we made a plan change request on 6th August. Even after sending an email for the same we were not intimidated that the plan will not be applicable.

Now, on 17th Sep 2010 I get an email from Airtel saying that they never got any email from us. What is next - will they delete the telephone conversation as well?

am unable to use the call barring feature. it was working fine before but i forgot the call barring password . i tried a few password and it got blocked. now i cant change the call barring password. it get error "Barring password blocked". i tried contacting Airtel customer case many times but as per them its a cellphone feature and suggested me to contact Nokia for the same . i explained them by sharing the manual of the Nokia model that its a service provider server and they don't agree. please get the Call barring password unblocked and share the new password with me.

airtel/prepaid connection — prepaid to post paid connection

Hi,

I had requested for transfer of prepaid to post paid connection nearly 15 days back, however till now the same has not been done. Also, three days back my sim card has been blocked without any intimation and when i tried reaching the customer care, they say that this number is not avl on records whereas i have been using this no for last 5 yaers. Also, they told me that the same will happen on monday. I want to check does airtel not work on sat/sun. This has led to so much of problem for me. Would request you to take this on priority as i have no resource to reach out to my family and frends. No is [protected]

My name is Rajalakshmi and my Airtel Sim No.[protected]. On 6/12/2010 I have received message from Airtel prepaid service that, If I recharge Rs.35/- I will get Rs.35/- talk time immediately and after 48 hours they will send Rs.6.3/- talk time . So that I have recharge Rs.35/- today on 06/12/2010 through Transaction ID No.[protected]. At the same time I have received Rs.28.73/- talk time only. but till now I have not received full talk time. Therefore now I decided to approach District Consumer Forum to file complaint against Airtel Company and I will file Complaint before District Consumer Forum .
Yours faithfully
K.Rajalakshmi

Airtel Prepaid Service — Call divert

Sir,
I am trying to divert calls from my airtel no: ([protected]) to my reliance gsm no: which is [protected] but it is failing each and every time i try.Pls help me regarding this.U can contact me on my reliance mobile or send an e-mail to [protected]@yahoo.co.in.

Dear All,

I am another customer who got cheated by Airtel and not able to Divert the calls on my numbers as well.

Airtel advertise them-self as India's #1 network but they don't have Call Divert/Forward option which is very very basic option since all other network providers are having this option without any restriction.

Except Airtel, if you use any other network just you have to provide a valid Indian cell phone number (10 digit some time with +91 and sometime with 0) is enough to set the call divert but AIRTEL NEVER support any of the way.

I called 121 regarding the same, 121 executive said that Airtel not have Call Divert option.

Then I called 198 and executive told its not network based its completely phone based like that.

Then I explained the executive its both phone and network based and when I place the check call divert status why its checking from your network like that? then the call diverted to the Senior executive then again senior executive also seems very poor in knowledge about the Call Divert simply told me "Airtel Not have Call Divert" option and also he too told me this is completely based on the mobile phone that we are using.

Then again I explained about Call Divert how it will work in detailed manner to the Senior executive as well, Call Divert is completely depends on both the mobile phone and Network provider and also I told him that I am able to do with the same mobile phone with the other networks but only with Airtel, I am not able to setup the Call Divert option.

Then asked him to register a complaint but no proper response from him.

Then I write a mail to [protected]@in.airtel.com and no response then I emailed to Nodalofficer.[protected]@in.airtel.com and no proper response and then emailed to appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com and I got the response as follows(if you read you can understand how WORST they handled me because I sent a complaint regarding the Call Divert but they sent a response for the bill plan change for a prepaid number),

As per the feedback received from our concerned team that your concern regarding the delay in bill plan change for your airtel mobile number has been addressed as call divert service is not allowed on given number from your airtel prepaid mobile number as per process.[REFERNCE: ROVAD[protected] and Qrc106091320095020059475].

So, I lost my all hopes and then I sent a mail to Airtel Presence [[protected]@in.airtel.com] about all my problems how worst I have handled by their executives and details about my problem of Call Divert option.

So far no proper solution from Airtel Presence.

I guess these day's AIRTEL is the worst network provider in India since I have experienced this personally. I am using airtel from past more than 10 years as a service provider but from past around a year very very worst at Airtel for sure.

No care for customer at all. Most of the executives at airtel customer care is very worst in knowledge about the telecom field and about the functionality of the telecom process. Even they never pay attention on which complaint they are working and what type of complaint they are working on if you read the above sample response from Appellate team you can understand that much better.

If Airtel keep doing like this then for sure one day they will close their business and all the peoples are are just come to the office and not working will loose their job and Airtel will loose their business and customers soon.

I kindly request all of you before get into the Airtel please talk to your friends who are using Airtel and then decide to purchase to avoid these kind of issues in future.

Airtel executives(worst customer care) and Airtel(very basic option Call Divert is not available at Airtel even newly stated networks are having it but India's #1 network not having) forced me to move out from Airtel. So, I have decided to move to the other network who care about their customer well and who provide all very basic options(I already investigated and it seems that all other networks are giving the call divert option without any restrictions for sure.

One of the Customer who got cheated by Airtel

Airtel — Weak Signal at Shell Colony, Chembur

Representing the residents of :

Shell Colony,
Chembur,
Mumbai-400071

The airtel mobile signal is weak in this area, the calls keep disconnecting. This adds a charged call for every UNcompleted conversation, Is this a way to earn more ? If airtel really cares for the customers ... take corrective steps to increase the signal strength.
It is not difficult to shift to an another mobile operator for good service.

Sir,
I am using Airtel conection [protected] from last about three years. I have never activated any service on my connection. I have not used my nofrom March to May regularly becoz I was out of station & it was lost in May'09 I have reissued the same no through duplicate sim. But from last many days my prepaid balance deducting automatically Rs. 10/- per day for which I try to complaint on 121 many times but this service is also not working on my connection. After that I took the another no 936 from a shopkeeper on 3-4th August & talk to the executive who told me that he couldn't check the detail right now then I asked him to stop the service if it is activated on my connection.He told me send the message 'Stop' on 121. I send the same message & I got reply throgh '1210' no "there is no serivce activated on your mob' & 'if you start the serive send Start on '121' within 5 min I again send the message 'Stop' to 121.

But on 5th August my balnace again deduct by Rs. 10/- . I again complaint on 936. There one customer executive Suprna attend the call & she told me the amount is deducting against downloading but that time my sim was on NOKIA 1100 how is it possible I asked to her but she can't give the clearance & also any solution to stop the problem. After that I check my message inboxt there is "Airtel WAP service of cricket" agaist which my balance Rs. 10/- is deducted on 4th August & also from last month regularly

After 5 minutes all serivces like Hello tunes, Astology, Freindship started on my no. without my permission & also deduct Rs. 30/- for which now my balance is -30 right now.

Please rectify my account & recover my balance from last months

Dear Sir


Re : Credit Card No.[protected]

I am employed with Everest Industries Limited having office at Mumbai. In or about Feb 2006, your marketing representative visited my Thane office and gave demo for the usage features of your card. While I was inquiring about the features of your card, your marketing representative obtained my signatures on some forms and obtained some documents from me for purpose of noting my name as “interested member” for filling inquiry form. Subsequently your Bank Credit Card bearing No[protected] was posted to me at my office address.

I say that without my using your card, your Bank sent me statement for Rs.210/-.approximately. I say that I immediately called your customer care number putting forth my grievance and called upon them to cancel my card and terminate services with immediate effect. I also called upon them to sent me letter for “No claim”, to which they showed their inability and stated that same is granted only in case where there is any dispute above Rs.1000/-, however they assured me that card is cancelled and services are terminated. I say that subsequent thereof, I have not received any statement from your bank till date.

I say that from last about 15 days, I am receiving sms from your bank for payment of Rs.4570/- towards aforesaid credit card pending bills. I had never imagine of such conduct from Big Banking Corporation like yours. I say that without usage of your services, how can I be made and forced to pay charges levied by you. I put forth my grievances with your customer care at Ram Maruti Rd branch, Thane who showed their inability to locate my bills and pending dues. They were also unable to provide me any Bank statement though I was ready and willing to bear the cost for same. I say that I also spoke to Mr.66667070 of your Bank collection centre at Mumbai,[protected] who responded to me rudely as if I am bring defaulter / criminal. I say that thereafter I spoke to your Delhi Recovery Cell at Telephone No[protected]/45023968 with Mr.Basant, who was also not able to resolve to my problem or provide me statisfactory reply.

I called[protected]/67116251/67116115 no one response

The said act of your to grab heavy & exorbitant amount from me for no fault of mine speaks of your volumes and attitudes to procure money by adhering to illegal means & making trap for the innocent customers like me.

I am therefore now constrained to put forth my grievance in writing for necessary action and resolution of my grievance. Request you please look into this matter and advise what should be my next step.
Yours truly,

i agree with u.same airtel chitted with me.

plan charges changed without information
hello sir,
i am from amravati, maharashtra
my mobile number is [protected]
i am a postpaid customer since 3yrs with mobile number [protected] due to some promotional executive approached us and offered us a police plan 150 rental and airtel to airtel calling free,
but all in vain, these airtel people cheated us by changing the plan abruptly, suddenly since 1st july airtel changed all its police plan connections acccross maharashtra, giving an excuse of that company cannot offord that plan anymore..so the new charges are from free airtel to airte to 10 paise/min,
now 1st of all how can the company change the plan so abruptly, without any prior intimation, and we were promised at the time of taking new connection that postpaid plans never change,
but now as we dont have any proof of verbal promises, we are helpless and ditched from airtel,
its a sort of mental harrasment,
and if we continue using the same way we used to, we cant afford to pay such heavy amount,
we just want the changes made to the plan to be reversed...connections which were alloted 1yr after our plan are also still going on with 1500 minutes airtel to airtel free, but our plan has been changed...
i jst want the plan to be reversed or it should be converted to 1500 min free airtel to airtel Rs150 plan
coz now we all have airtel numbers in the family and you can v.well understand how difficult it is to change the numbers,
so this is just a torture/ fraud/harrasment from airtel,
nd if the company couldn't afford, why did it launch the plan...
i request an immediate action against airtel for this issue..
