Hello All,

I WILL NEVER EVER GO FOR AIRTEL as it's support SUCKS... (Airtel Karnataka)
No prompt response,
they will intentionally disconnect the call while on 121,
no call back,
no proper updates or responses,
false promises,
play with customers,
charge without justification,
1st level support agents are most of the times advised not to escalate to floor mgrs if customer asks for,
late pament charges levied on customers no matter the bills are generated and delivered or not,
if their billing server goes down on or before the customer's due date-customer will have to bear the late payment charges, , ,
horrible support,
deplomatic answers and no workarounds as well,

Dear Sir,

My Mobile No is [protected].

Yeasterday I have received call from [protected] by Airtel Customer Care informing that I have not recharge of Rs.200/- the minimum amount which should be recharge in every six month because of life time connection.

But i have rechaged of Rs.200/- whose details are confiremed by Airtel SMS service while recharge. I have that SMS in my mobile. Details given below:-

Recharge Successful on 09.01.2009 at 2:05 PM
Talktime - Rs.100.00
MRP - Rs.200.00
Transcation ID[protected]

When I received call from [protected] computer says please recharge min of Rs.200/- otherwise your phone's services will be discontinued.

After that I have informed to customercare at [protected]to Mr.Anil and Mr.Dharmesh about my Last recharge and about the call received. But they said you have rechaged with Rs.100/- only (But Recharge was of Rs.200/- as informed above ) and informed a new thing that inspite of recharge of Rs.200/- you have to consume Rs.200/- within 6 months if not then services will be discontinued which is not informed by company while I take the connection.

Now sir, Please tell me what I can do to continue services.

Please help me.

i m getting calls from unknow number the number is [protected]. can u plz give me details of this number.

I got airtel postpaid connection on Feb 2009. Till now I have not received any bills either by softcopy or hard copy or not available in airtel.in site but they expect me to pay the bills to avoid barring of outgoing calls.

I lodged a complaint with airtel 121 and they told there is problem in their side with the billing. I have got many complaint number reference SMS's from them that they are working on the issue.

Still I get SMS's asking me to pay the bill even though airtel itself has not sent the bill.

Today my outgoing has been barred!!!

I had to call them and explain the whole thing happening for a month! They themselves should be able to understand my problem looking at the complaints I lodged with them before barring my outgoing calls!!

Moreover, they say that I have to pay fine for "Late payment" !!! When the mistake is 100% with airtel, why do I need to pay fine for Late Payment!!! They told me it would be reimbursed/discoutned in next billing cycle. Who knows if it will be reimbursed/discounted or not? First, why do they want to add "Late Payment" fine now and discount later when the problem is with them? They should not include that at all!

If I get that in my bill, I will go to the consumer forum!

DEACTIVATE ALL WAP SERVICES MOB.NO.[protected]

Hi,

My airtel landline number is[protected] is dead. Could you repair it asap.

Thanks,

Hi,
The Ebill facility for airtel is really worst. We are not able to retrieve the bill from the site. Also Airtel does not send the monthly e-bill to mail ids. In this era bills are required on the email, so request to take action on this. This has been informed to the Airtel consumer care many times yet no step has been taken.
Let me know regarding this how to proceed further.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Myself Swapnil Prakash Pednekar,

I did complaint that my incoming calls and sms are not working dated on 24 March 2009. I got universal reply that your problem will be solved within 24hrs. But 96hrs passed but still there is no positive response from Airtel customer care. Within this period i did so many calls to customer care but they said the same thing. I did mail also. I got reply that my sms problem will be solved on 27March2009 and my incoming call problem will be solved on 1st April 2009. I dont understand what the hell they are doing there. It is absolutely bad service they are offering to customer. If they are taking such a long time to solve customers problem then i must say that this is absolutely useless service they are offering. I am very disappointed with the customer care response.

Hi,

I was using an Airtel Internet Connection (at first, its speed was worst). But after sometime i moved to Delhi as i got a job there, so wanted to disconnect this Airtel Connection. I called customer care many times, visited their Customer Care Center many times but they always say drop a mail to airtel punjab.
I dropped so many mails after that, escalated to nodal punjab and then to appellate punjab... but till date connection is not terminated.
I called nodal punjab and they said it has been terminated in their accounts, but service is still not disconnected and i am still receiving bills for the same.

This is the worst service i have ever used in my life.

Gaurav Chopra
