Sim card used by my father is issued on someone else name

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is regarding my father's Airtel SIM card which he has been using for the last 9+ years, recently his sim card stopped working and when we went to the Airtel store I was told that the number is registered on some one else name which is strange to say the least. We do remember is like any other responsible citizen, mobile phone user in India, we had submitted my father's identity document when we purchased...

      Hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a recharge error that occurred while using the Amazon Pay app. I mistakenly recharged the wrong Airtel account, resulting in an incorrect recharge of Rs. 239. Here are the relevant details of the transaction:

      Wrong Number (Recharged): [protected]
      Correct Number (Intended): [protected]
      Operator Reference Number:[protected]
      Recharge Amount: Rs. 239
      Payment Method: Amazon Pay

          Amount paid : Rs. 4, 000
          Total refund : Rs. 1686.92
          Given refund : Rs. 796.04
          Pending refund: Rs. 890.88
          Mobile : [protected]

          I have paid Rs.4, 000 on 26th April, 2023 towards a subscription of Airtel Broadband and DTH which is worth Rs.999 per month. However, all the internet and DTH services stopped starting 20th June, 2023 and I have made numerous complaints online and also through mobile calls to your customer care service and I had hours of conversations with them where they could neither resolve the issue nor cancel my subscription and provide me a refund.
          As they could not provide any service for 15 days in a row, finally they accepted to cancel my subscription and I was promised by the floor manager (Mohammad Nawaz) that I'm going to receive a refund of around Rs.1, 800 on 6th July, 2023 as there was no service provided to me since 20th June, 2023 and there will not be any charges from that date.
          But then, I was credited with an amount of Rs.796.04 which is nowhere making sense to what I should actually get.
          I have tried to reach out to the customer care multiple times but I'm not even able to speak with anyone. The retention team keeps spamming me to renew the subscription, but no one is really concerned about my issue where the services were disconnected but the refund is not provided fully.
          I have sent many emails to their official email ([protected]@airtel.com), called their customer care numbers, escalated it in Twitter ("X") where they asked me to send private messages, but even after sending private messages, they just called a couple of times and promised to provide a resolution, but they never provided the refund. Now, they are not even responding to my private messages or public posts.
          I have all the call recordings of the conversations I had with their Customer service agents, Floor leaders, Retention team, billing team, social media escalation team. But no one is helping to resolve my issue.
          Below are the social media posts I have posted to get their management's attention for a quick resolution.
          https://twitter.com/NagamounikaK1/status/[protected]

          https://twitter.com/NagamounikaK1/status/[protected]

          Just look at the number of Private messages I have sent them and how they are ignoring me. Also, it's been almost 70 days since the issue initially started and 50 days since they cancelled the subscription and promised to provide refund. But they are torturing me and mentally harassing by not providing my refund. I can provide all the call recordings also that I had with their team which are full of fake promises to resolve the issue.

          I request to get this issue resolved at the earliest and get my refund and Airtel need to pay the price for delaying and ignoring my issue by stealing my money and also harassing me like this.

                    My old Airtel number got assigned to someone today. It was inactive for a while but it was associated to my WhatsApp and Telegram account. Not only that, it is one of the most shared number amongst my concerned contact people. Now I am in a very troubled state of what to do.

                      My number is spoofed . I am receiving from random numbers everyday from past three days saying they had received call from my number . I tried to some of them on gathering information related to what the person who spoofed my number is speaking and I hear that they are being offered some wfh jobs for which a initial payment needs to be done. So before this goes to a next stage where people get tricked and cheated on my name & number, i would like airtel to take some action or suggest some solution. Note: I have already reported complaint to customer two times. Kindly do the needful on priority basis

                        My name is Dinesh Kumar, Mobile No: [protected]. faced a issue(not able to using internet). So I complained to Airtel Customer Care (121) & informed my issue. They told me issue will resolve within 24 hours. But the issue was still after 4 days. After that my outgoing services also stopped without any information to me.
                        Then I called again to Cx. care and logged again both issues (Calling & Internet). Then cx. Executive told me there is some verification (Documents) issue so these services has been stopped.
                        I wanted to ask to Airtel, If document verification was the problem then how could I was using this number from last 10 years. It was very funnative reply was Airtel side.
                        I don't know WHY AIRTEL DID THIS WITH INNOCENT CUSTOMER.

                                I have been using an Airtel Black account under2299 plan which offers me 4 mobile connections, one ftth and one dth connection each. Recently i requested Airtel to deactivate the dth as it was offering pathetic service and connection issues, which Airtel never resolved despite repeated complants

                                So Airtel proceeded to unbundle my Airtel Black 2299 account, and deactivated the dth. I then requested them to bundle the mobile services and ftth into the Airtel Black 1799 plan

                                Since last two weeks they have been sitting on the request and giving me flimsy reasons that the system is not allowing them to bundle the services into a new plan. This is causing me loss of money as the individual services are highly priced, and also causing mental stress while calling them repeatedly . No one at any level seems to be concerned about customer complanits

                                  Fraud by Airtel in the name of 5G unlimited internet

                                  I have been airtel sim and done recharge of 666 Rs which claims to provide unlimited 5G data, but it’s been a month they are not providing 5g unlimited data. I have 5G device and I am in 5g network area. In earlier recharge I was able to use 5g unlimited data but this time my daily data is getting exhausted.
