I got my number registered to NDNC in oct last year but i still get all the promotional calls and sms. I tried calling the Airtel Customer support but they either tell me that there is no such facility or they tell me that they cant do anything about it or they just put you on hold till you hang up!

This is frustrating!

I lost my Nokia N72 Mobile with Airtel Connection No.[protected] I registered FIR in local police station, Now I went to Airtel office at Sarojini nagar Kanpur UP and submitted FIR Photocopy with ID proof a new SIM[protected]) of the same number was issued to me which is not working and the SIM which I lost is still working. Please Instruct the related officers to solve my problem, the person who got my mobile is still using it so can I get the call details from your office.
I am using airtel services from last 3 years. I was happy from airtel services. But from last six months found Airtel Services are very poor or we can say they are always cheating custumers like.
1. SMS charges add two or three times in a bill
2. Un-necessary value added charges included in bills.
And finally there executives are bargaining with custumer on fake charges. The quality of 121 services are very bad. So I request to concern pls. take care the trust on Airtel.

      I have been customer of Airtel cellular service for more than one year. I haven’t had a major problem with quality of network during this period except regular call blocking for hours (They block your number so you can not make of receive calls, and this is acknowledged by there customer service Rep on 121). Not that I had high regard for Airtel Customer Service Reps before this experience as they are nothing but another set of recording trained to repeatedly utter something on the tune of ‘mein aapko adhik se adhik jaankaari uplabdh karaane kaa prayaas karungaa’ rather than providing any useful ‘jaankaari’. Though, irritating these things were, I was never bothered much until my recent experience.

      My problem started when all the cellular service providers slashed their STD calling rates. Earlier, the STD rates were more than Rs. 2/min so I had subscribed to Airtel’s weekly rental plan that charges Rs 25/week but you pay only Rs. 1.20/min for STD calls. Now, since STD calls are only Rs. 1.50/min, I wanted to cancel my weekly rental scheme, as it does not make my STD calling significantly cheaper. With this novel intent to save my Rs. 100 month I called Airtel Customer Service number 121. Here is the history of my interaction with various Airtel Customer Service Reps and Seniors on Airtel’s Complaint Hotline on 198 over a period of a month:

      First week of September, 2008:

      I dial 121: Rep says he cannot help me because his system is down and advises me to call again after some time.

      September 10, 2008:

      I dial 121: Get a Rep with working system, he accepted my complaint and promised that my weekly rental scheme will be deactivated within 24 hrs (or it could be 48 hrs, I do not remember clearly). But, he refused to provide me with a reference number for the complaint.

      September 16, 2008:

      The Rep acknowledges that a complaint was received on 10th September but the weekly rental scheme could not be deactivated because of some technical problem. But it will be deactivated within 24 hrs. Rep again refuses to provide a reference number for the complaint.

      September 20, 2008:

      I get a person with nonworking system; he refused to transfer my call to another Rep.

      I dialed 121 again. The Rep apologizes that my weekly rental scheme has not been cancelled. He asks me about balance and validity that I have. I had a good balance with validity up to January 2009. He advised me to go for a life time validity recharge for Rs. 196 that will give Rs. 100 talk time, and assures me that this will cancel all the previous schemes. I refused to do that because it would cost me Rs. 96. Also, as I have good 4 months validity and many better recharge/validity schemes may be available in future. Agreeing to my argument, he promised that the rental scheme would be deactivated within 24 hrs.

      The scheme was not cancelled and Airtel was deducting Rs. 25 every week for the service that I did not really wanted to use. Being frustrated with Airtel’s Customer Service Representatives, I searched online for any other way out of this. To my temporary relief I found that Airtel has a Complaint Redressel Mechanism. They have Nodal Officers contact number at: http://airtel.in/applications/xm/ReachMobile_CS_NodalOfficer.jsp and Appellate Authority contact number at: http://airtel.in/applications/xm/ReachMobile_CS_AppellateAuth.jsp

      So I thought, finally, there is somebody who can possible solve my problem. But, alas, after repeatedly trying the numbers provided on the Airtel’s website (and mind you, in the case of Mumbai that number given on Nodal Officer link is for Appellate Authority and vice versa) I could not hear the voice of Nodal Officer or Appellate Authority. All I got to hear is their schedule and some scary music followed by beep beep beep beep…

      October 4, 2008:

      Now having exhausted all the feasible options (I do not know whether going to consumer court will the worth the efforts) I decided to follow the advice of the ‘Friendly’ Airtel Customer Care Rep on September 20. I went to nearby Airtel center to get the lifetime validity for Rs. 196 and lose Rs. 96 once rather then losing more than Rs. 100 every month (as there are more that 4 weeks in a month). I lost all my wits when I was told that I cannot get this recharge as I am subscribed to one of the Airtel’s weekly rental schemes and need to get deactivated that before getting this Recharge.

      October 4, 2008:

      The Rep accepts my complaint about canceling the weekly rental scheme and requests if he could put me on hold for 30 secs. Never answers back.

      I dialed 121 again: The Rep takes my complaint to cancel to weekly rental scheme and promises that it will be cancelled within 24 hrs. But reference number for the complaint was not given.

      During my various calls to Airtel, one of messages that stuck in my mind was call 198 for you complaints. So I decided to give it a try.

      The Rep that I got to spoke seemed reasonable and very concerned but she told me that the only complaint that she could see was lodged on October 4, 2008 and it would take 24 hrs for it to be processed. I asked if there is a reference number associated with the complaint, she promptly said yes and provided me with a number [protected].

      October 8, 2008:

      I called 198 to see the status of my complaint, the Rep says the scheme was not deactivated because of some technical problem and will be deactivated within 24 hrs. He also gives me a number[protected].

      October 9, 2008:

      I get an SMS from 121 saying ‘Thank you for contacting Airtel. Your request reference number is [protected]. For your concerns, kindly dial 198(toll free).”

      But the scheme is yet to be cancelled. Now I am thinking that I will switch to some other service provider once my balance becomes zero. I will switch to some other cellular service provider not because I believe that they are better than Airtel in their service, but at least I will not be losing Rs. 25 a week for rest of my life (or the plan’s life) as will be the case if I continue with Airtel.

          Dear Sir,
          I am staying in Chinoutpalii, Gannavaram, Near Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh and my Phone No. is [protected].
          On 2nd Sept 2008, I took new connection and submitted all the documents (PAN card, BSNL Landline bill and Two photos). About 25 days back my phone no. is blocked (Showing call barred) and incoming -outgoing stopped. Because I have alternate no. I have not given much attention to that and I thought it was temporary. But 7days back when trying to make calls customer care, I got another no([protected]) to contact(From customer care) for the same problem. But to the same no. I am unable to contact as repeatedly computer reply comes “this no. doesn’t exist”. After few days it shows your SIM registration failure.

          When I went to the Airtel Office in MG Road, Vijayawada (on 10th Oct 2008 about 5.PM)the staff said that your no. is cancelled because some of the document which is required, was not submitted by you. When I asked what document she didn’t answer. They told message was sent to you on 17th Sept 2008 but I am not sure because so many useless message is coming I am deleting that without even looking into .I asked any other way to help, answer was negative. Because I took new connection and also lifetime validity also, I am losing lifetime validity charge and balance worth Rs 110/-. I informed everything all about what I am losing but reply is same as above. Your Staff is telling that nothing can be done with paradoxical smile “thank you sir”. Because I want to gradually shift to this new no. and already gave to so many friends and also informed call to above no. from Diwali onwards.

          Due to no fault of mine I am losing money.

          Instead of cutting lines or barring incoming or outgoing calls, they can give a call inform to contact customer care. Everyday we are receiving many calls(Computer voice) regarding advertisement and call values of airtel.

          As a customer I am not happy with the service.

          Money is not everything, service is important, which I find deficient AIRTEL customer service.
          Do you have any solution to this?

          Kindly reply

          Thanking you

          Sir,
          I am having a prepaid connection([protected]) for last three years and it is continuous use since then. Recently my service was disabled quoting the reason of documents shortage. Presently i am at Lonavla for an urgent commitement and my services were disabled due to which I suufered financially as well as mentally.
          Pls provide me some solution for the same. I coudn't able to visit the nearest service centre too due to my busy work schedule and customer care service is not active in my mobile.

            I am using a corporate number from Airtel for HCl Comnet Systems & Services ltd which is (+91-[protected]) on 15th of Feb i lost my cellphone hence i called airtel custcare and asked them to deactivate my services as i have lost cellphone - so then they have deactivated my services.

            On 16th of Feb i went to an airtel shop in Dilshad Garden at around 10:00 AM. There i have taken a duplicate sim from the executive and then she told me that this will be activated in not more then 4 hours b.coz thats there SLA.

            My number was not activated till the evening.

            So next day i again went to the same airtel shop and asked the same lady that my number is still not working then she said that i am taking the request again and it will take 1 to 2 hour to activate, then i reached my office at 01:30 PM and still the number was not activated.

            So then i again went to AIRTEL shop in Sector - 18 Noida, and when i showed him my cell he said that the lady has given you H2 the wrong SIM it should H1 not H2.i dont know what is H1 & H2.

            So then he has given me new SIM that was H1.and he said that it will be activated in another 4 Hour...but still my no is not activated.

            I AM TOTALLY FRUSTATED WITH THE NON FULL FILLING COMMITMENTS AND POOR SERVICES OF THE AIRTEL - AND DUE TO THIS I HAVE BEEN MENTALLY SUFFERED LOT.

                I have been using Airtel card ([protected]) for more that 3 years. For the last two months I started getting pre-recorded calls from Airtel fron no.[protected] more than 10 times a day, though it was registered for DND 4 months back. I complained to Airtel several time but with no luck. Then one day I called Airtel customer care (121) and asked the details about the DND and I was surprised when a CC said that after registration of DND it get activated within 45 days and the registered no will not get and unwanted call for 45 days only and again after that I will have to register for DND again, and again it would take 45 days to get activated.
                I shouted on that CC guy and told him that this not the rule, but he insisted on it and disconnected the phone. Next day a my friend told me that Hallo Tunes is activated on no. and immediately I checked my balance and Rs.200 had been deducted from my no. I immediately called Airtel CC and informed them about it and asked them that how they charged me Rs.200/- without my knowledge and I didn't even asked for Halo Tunes and even I did not get any sms or any call from Airtel b4 activating Halo Tunes. The Airtel guy told me to that the amount would be credited in my card in 24 hours and Halo Tunes would be deactivated but more than 5 days have gone Halo Tunes is deactivated but still I haven't got my 200 in my card even after reminding them everyday.
                I have inquired about DND with TRAI and immediately I got reply from them. According to TRAI any no. activated for DND will not get unwanted calls till the customer itself deactivate the DND.
                TRAI needs to take some serious steps towards this and give some relief to customers.
                I would agree with his opinion as an airtel customer having been in such a worse situation. I usually gets 5-6 service messages from the airtel which are ads to use aitel world. Even after repeated complaints for 3 months still it is continuing and every time you call they will restart the whole game.

                  Multiple & Everlasting Problems with Airtel

                  Time & again I have been proved by Airtel that they are just getting from bad to worse.

                  Their Customer Service is not at all efficient nor even upto the mark forget doing any Value Add.

                  The service as well as the customer service is just frustrating me day-by-day.



                  Here is the list of problems I am facing with Airtel -

                  I am a prepaid customer of Airtel Bihar, using GPRS facility in lieu of Rs 250 monthly deduction.

                  The network is really bad.Particularly GPRS speed is exremely slow.They deduct Rs.250 on exact dates, but cant provide service properly.I feel realy cheated while using the GPRS service.

                  Their CUSTOMER CARE SERVICE is too bad, You can never talk to their executive as the "NETWORK IS ALWAYS BUSY".They should close 121 service.

                  Its not only my personal problem, but with the whole region.

                  If this continues, I will be forced to switch my service provider, as in this competitive environment other providers will certainly provide some better option.

                  I am really fed up with their service.

                  Hope any senior level manager take notice of my problem, else I am sorry to say that you are certainly going to lose a lot, as single single drops make ocean.

                  Hi,

                  Myself is P. N. Agrawal. Having connection no. [protected]. I am residing in ACC Colony, Post - Jamul Cement Works, Distt. DURG. City-BHILAI in Chhattisgarh State.

                  my complaint is as under :-

                  First kindly note that this is not only my personal complaint.
                  People whoever residing in this area have complained about Bad services.
                  I am working at ACC Limited (Cement manufacturing unit).
                  We have got the Group connection also in the ACC from you.

                  Since last 15 days whenever we call, the call is maturing but at their end my voice is not reaching properly and they complained that "AWAZ CUT RAHI HAI". Then we do not have any other option either call from other services like Landline, Idea, Smart, Reliance, etc.

                  Please note that whenever we call from same mobile/handset/connection from other places, there is no connectivity or hearing problems.

                  We heard that any of your service staff have disturbed the ANTINA of nearby tower and moved the face.

                  it seems that to facilitate some othe customers you have disturbed us.

                  Kindly registere my complaint and do the needful.

                  Please also note that we have the group of 14-15 persons who had choose the services are AIRTEL, fortunately i had approached them to procure the services of AIRTEL and all they have trusted on me but all are unhappy now and thinking to move with some other connectivities.

                  Hope the above complaint will be attended by you.

                  A line of confirmation is requested to convey thew same to my friends.

                  Kind Regards,

                  Parma Nand Agrawal

                    The customer care cell,
                    Airtel.

                    1. it is extremely shameful what has happened to an honest customer of your postpaid mobile connection.
                    2. my wife rashmi verma was having airtel mobile postpaid connection connection no. –[protected] @ address of 6329, rajiv vihar, manimajra, chandigarh.
                    3. i happen to be a neurosurgeon in the armed forces & thus have to move frequently on transfers & when that happens my family too moves with me.
                    4. i got transfer orders for lucknow & sometime during first week of feb 2008, I personally submitted the application signed by my wife for closing the connection & also the amount due at your collection center at SHOPPING COMPLEX, MODERN HOUSING SOCIETY, MANIMAJRA, CHANDIGARH.
                    5. today at around 1650 hrs one mr mukesh calls me up on my mobile and claiming to be SOOCHNA ADHIKARI, TEES HAZARI COURT DELHI asks my wife to talk to one lawyer (? yours) who informs us that an amount of rs1124.00 is due on the above mentioned number and that it has to be paid immediately(SICKENING AUDACITY!!!) which we did anyway(vide online receipt no[protected] & VOILA!!—we were told that the connection is STILL ON ! that too we intend to close tomorrow –atleast try to close by reapplying & hoping against hope that this application too does not meet the same fate –given the proven efficiency/honesty of your staff on ground.

                    POINTS TO PONDER
                    A . what does the customer do? Do expect all your customers to maintain the receipts for next one year to prove his honesty?
                    b. I know I can never prove it in a court of law but ethically it is your word against mine-who is more honest---you decide.
                    c. whether the finance ministry agrees to make amends to the pay commission or not ---GENTLEMEN, THE NUCLEAR CAPABLE MIGHTY INDIAN ARMY PAYS ITS OFFICERS ENOUGH TO LIVE RESPECTFULLY
                    & HONESTLY.
                    d. what about circumstantial evidence----has a single call been made from that number after 2nd week feb2008?
                    e. what about circumstantial evidence---- has a single call been received at that no after the official 7day grace period(I didn’t ask for it, I was told it was your companys policy--& I was mighty impressed imust say!!!)?
                    f. what about circumstantial evidence---- you dot need to call Sherlock holmes or jasoos karamchand to see that there were ONLY INCOMING CALLS the last 7 days—those were the free incoming calls allowed by you during the grace period.
                    g. talking of Sherlock holmes-why don’t you do some introspection at your end.do you believe in good housekeeping—or do you simply leave the job of record keeping to your customers.if you do then how about looking for some TORN COUNTRFOILS IN THE BILL BOOK of your above mentioned collection center.he DID give me a bill I am certain.
                    h. talking of Sherlock holmes – if you have such good sleuths who could trace my tele no at lucknow – does the popular brand name airtel does not have the decency of giving me a call before taking the matter to the court?
                    i. I am not sure whether I gave my forwarding address – if I did it is all the more disgusting on your part not to have even written to me—so much for your slogan—BATEIN GIRA SAKTI HAIN SOME STUPID DEEWAREIN…SIC!
                    j. If you do some record check you will realize that we also had opted for your landline connection at the same address either on my wife/ my name which we promptly got disconnected within a few months-- would you not like to know the reason –FRAUD—we had also complained against your staff --one mr mishra ---so much for your track record!!
                    k. Never again will i opt for an airtel connection in my life. May you become the biggest telecom firm in the world by the huge profit of Rs 1124.00.
                    l. I am thinking of writing to army head quarters to advise fellow brothers in uniform about this incidence & to think twice before opt ing for your services.You think it is funny don’t you—so did ms mamata banerjee think when tatas said they will quit.
                    m. What can you do?? Keep the money, do some record check &say sorry atleast.

                      Airtel — NON-RECEIPT OF MONTHLY BILLS

                      I am using AIRTEL post paid SIM for the last 3 months. For the first month I received mbill msg on my cell, but subsequently I receive only payment due msgs.. I nether receive the BILL nor the mbill msg. Now you tell me how do I make the payment without the BILL or mbill msg., but you keep sending payment due msgs. We have to go after AIRTEL spending money by calling them to the bill. Is it not ridiculous.

                      Please look into this problem.

                      Airtel Broadband Services — Non-receipt of monthly bills

                      Despite my repeated request to the authorities, I am not receiving the monthly telephone bills.
                      I have a feeling that the messengers ( read courier-service) is to blame.They are either not delivering the bills to the proper addresses, or making false and ficticious initials on the PODs, after dumping the bills some place.But at the end of the day, the management needs to address the matter, as they are having to receive all the public complaints.

                      Dear Sir,

                      Reg: My Airtel Broadband No. 4275161 - Payment of last month's bill - Accounted less by you.
                      [protected]
                      *****

                      For the March 2011 Bill, I had paid an amount of Rs.1, 200/- on 24.03.2011 and your representatives have given me a manual (paper) receipt. Amount was paid to M/s. Nile Communications - Nile Associates, New Siddhapudur, Coimbatore - Their Mobile No.[protected].

                      The Receipt No. is 10310 dated 24.03.2011 for Rs.1, 200/-.

                      To my surprise I find from your enclosed bill that an amount of Rs.1090/- only is accounted for, instead of Rs.1, 200/-. I would like to inform you that I have never paid any short payment of the bills. Usually I used to pay only excess amount when compared to the bill amount.

                      In this connection, I request you to immediately rectify the short collection, and send me the revised bill for the period 05-03.2011 to[protected] so as to enable me to remit the bill for April 2011.

                      Kindly acknowledge and reply soon.

                      Thanking you,

                      Yours faithfully,
                      G.V. Pankajam,

                          I wish to bring to the notice of all general public using Bharti Airtel's Services and especially the Management at Bharti Airtel itself, the abusive and the corrupt nature of the Customer Service Executives employed at the various Customer Support "Call" Centres servicing Airtel.

                          They never have the answers to your queries/complaints and if asked they do not even have the courtesy to check on the matter, in fact they prefer either putting customer's calls on hold for an indefinite period or use abusive language. I wonder what happens to all the "THIS CALL MAY BE RECORDED FOR INTERNAL TRAINING PURPOSES".

                          The best part is yet to come, these so called Customer Service Executives/Representatives even have the audacity to use the name of BHARTI Tele's Corporate Director-Human Resources (HR), Mr. Daljit Singh's name as their own. I am sick and tired of making complaints to Airtel about their Network issues in the Mumbai region which is the biggest Metropolitan city of India, so I can just imagine what the condition of their services would be in other parts of the country.

                          I'm airtel's regular user. During this period i experienced worst service. Once i had a call of my boss from US. Next day i needed to call him back but due to some problem in my cell phone my incoming call record got vanished. So, i called customer care (But they dont care about customer..!!) and requested for the list of international calls i received last night. Subsequently 3 times call got disconnected automatically as i hear a tone "THIS CALL MAY BE RECORDED FOR INTERNAL TRAINING PURPOSE". Then on next call to customer care i hear "KINDLY SMS YOUR QUERY TO 121".
                          I sms them my query but every thing gone waste.I havent got any reply. Then i called 121 from my friend's cell phone. This time after 2 try, third time call got connected. This time i asked for the received call list last night from my number [protected]. This foolish lady refused me to give that list. She said goto pune on following address and ask there for list you want. At that time i was 300 km away and i had to have number of my boss any how. then i requested more than 4-5 customer care executive for number but nothing happen.
                          That time i experienced Hell on the earth with Airtel...
                          Hi! I am an existing user of Airtel Broadband and tried to get a postpaid mobile number of Airtel only.
                          I submitted my documents for address verification and it was my Broadband bill only. After three days I received a message from Airtel that my address verification is negative. After digging the matter I came to know that for address verification some of there executive punched the wrong address.
                          I was wondering that if I am already using Airtel Broadband how come it is possible that my residence verification at same address can become negative. But these Airtel people can do anything. I again submitted my document for verifcation and again received a same message that verification is negative. When I tried to speak to an executive at there local outlet, he responded in such a manner that I started believing that I am culprit for negative verification.
                          Meanwhile I wrote a mail to Airtel Customer Care. That mail is carrying a long trail now but every time it appears that they have a single format for every mail that I should carry a copy of my document to the nearest Airtel shop. It never appears that they are interested in resolving the issue.
                          It has been now more than a month that I am chasing Airtel for my postpaid number. I have deposited a security amount of Rs500/- for that number. Now I want to get my money refunded and no more Airtel Number, But on that issue Airtel executives are saying that I need to pay some additional amount alongwith that Rs 500/- security deposit which is now not refundable, to save myself from their defaulter list.
                          I am feeling helpless and being cheated by Airtel.
                          Such a company...
                          Hi Guys,

                          I am also agree with all of you problem but i need a favour from you if any body is having the contact matrix of airtel bharti so provide me

                          Bharti Airtel/ Mobile Services — Service/ Network/ Abusive calls

                          I have been using Airtel mobile services since 2007.

                          There have been various instnces wherein a complaint hasbeen made on the customer care nos of Airtel for weak network signals at my residential and ofiice areas.

                          There has been no resolution to the same.Almost 50% of the day there is no network.

                          Due to network problems, I had to compulsorily subscribe for missed call alrets for which the serrvice provider ,i.e AIRTEL charges me.

                          I DONOT GET MISSED CALL ALRETS ALSO.

                          IN CASE ANY MESSAGE IS RECEIVED, IT COMES ONLY AFTER 24 HRS

                          The service provider had confirmed that the payments of each bill will be collected from my office on monthly basis. But no one comes to collect.

                          EACH MONTH I AM BEING CHARGED RS.200/- as late payment fees for the services not provided by them.

                          Since last one week, one of the Airtel executive has been continously calling because I am noting using the services as much I was using it earlier.

                          Inspite of telling him not to call and also making a complaint to AIRTEL on the CUSTOMER CARE NOS the executive keeps giving missed calls/ blank calls and at times uses abusive language.


                          In case of late payments, the collection agency guys call and use threatening language.

                          Please resolve all the above problems.

                          But only after doing the recharge I came to know that it was an Iphone offer which was not needed for me.
                          I was going for a trip that I needed the balance urgently. I called their customer support and raised the issue. But they said they cant do anything. Atlast I forced them to connect the call to their team leader. He returned me the amount of Rs.150 then itself after a fight for half an hour and promised me to get back the rest of the balance before 10:00am next day. I waited till next day, but didnot get the amount. I went to their office and they pointed to a telephone and asked me to call customer care again. Again after three hours of struggle and fight they said I have to wait till 8:00pm.
                          After getting back home, i tried calling them but they didnot connect to customer care . Till now I didnot get the solution of the problem.
                          They are thinking that we customers are fools that we donot understand the drama they are playing their.It is the worst service provider.

                            Hi, i m mayur. I have an Airtel prepaid number [protected]. I needed the GPRS service, so on 2nd oct., i sent the message to activate the GPRS, i got the message that GPRS will be activated
                            within 4 hrs and that i will get a confirmation message. Well i waited for 4 hours, but i didnt got any confirmation message. I tried 4 times, but i didnt got any confirmation. So i left it and went out to cyber cafe to do my job. Later on 9th oct, when i checked my balance, i found that a lot of balance was deducted(more than 130 Rs.). I dont talk on the phone too much, so i was confused and then i thought may be GPRS was activated. And yes, it was activated. So my 105 Rs. was deducted for a service which never informed that its activated. I tried calling the cust. service, but they just picked the phone, but nobody answered. This happened at least 6 times, tried from a diff. phone, still the same result. Finally i got hold of one CSR(Satish kadam). I explained him my problem and requested him to refund the amount thart was deducted for GPRS. I told him that he can check his system to see that i never used the GPRS on my computer. If i have used that the request does go to Airtel only after which thay activate the internet. But he said that his system is getting upgraded, so he cant check it right now. Now i am a network engineer myself, so i know he was making a fool of me, because he speeled out my mobile no. and its details without me telling anything to him. He said me to call back because his system was getting upgraded. I didnt want to lose him bcoz i feared no one would again answer my call. But he insisted for call back as he was helpless!I called back. This time it was Gita. She told me that the amt. cannot be refunded. I told her that she can on her system. I also told that when i use my GPRS on my comp. it sends my username and password for verification to Airtel only after which they activate the internet. But she refused. So here am I. And this is not the first time this has happened to me. Every time i activate GPRS, it takes at least 2-3 days to deactivate after i send the message to deactivate it. So i would really appreciate if some one can help refund this amt. Its not about the money. I just want Airtel to realise they spend a lot on advertisement, but i think they should also invest more in their infrastructure. For that i want that refund.

                                      sir/madam, i am a SUMIT SRIVASTAVA([protected]), resident of BHOPAL and i have a complaint regarding activation of my new AIRTEL BROADBAND conection. on 30.09.08 i went to airtel office(M.P.NAGAR, BHOPAL) for a new airtel broadband connection.i was told i will b given the connection in 2-3 days of time.on 01.10.08 airtel executive mr.manish([protected])came to me in the morning with the form and i paid him rs.400 for the connection.he also said that within 2-3 days my net connection will be activated but this is 09.10.08 when i write this complaint to you and still i have not got my connection done.for the last 6 days contineously i have been callin to your executive mr.manish whom i paid rs. 400 regarding my connection but either he does not pick up my call or he assures me that it will be done today only but it never really gets done.now he gave me another no to ask when my connection will be done.it is mr.p.n.lohiya([protected]) who on calling him provied another no 2 me and asked me to check on that no. regarding my connection. certainly i don't think it is a customer's responsibility to arrange all those numbers for himself rather it is the responsibility of the concerned authorities.it has really been not so good situation for me as i have been suffering with great inconvenienece becuase of this not so supportive role of your persons.
                                      a few months back i had another problem regarding my billing of my airtel mobile, at that time too i had to pay a number of visits to the AIRTEL OFFICE and only after 3-4 months hard labour i got my things done. that time i did not do anything but this time around i may have to take some more strict actions against AIRTEL.
                                      kindly provide me with the solution of my internet activation woes and i want my internet activated in least possible time otherwise because of the great inconvenienece caused to me by the AIRTEL AUTHORITIES i may even consider of going into CONSUMER FORUM.
                                      kindly try to provide a solution 2 me. thank u.
