Hello,

My name is Qamar Tavawala. i have been a customer with Airtel since 2012.

[protected]_mh

I have been incorrectly charged Rs85 every month for VAS on my broadband. I have never opted for it and I have just realised this charge is on my Bill since more than a year. I have called them last month and raised a complaint again this month and they told me the VAS would be cancelled and also processed a refund last month. This month bill Oct 20 bill has again been charged.

This VAS is for anti virus on 3 devices. when I asked which of my devices were covered, they were not aware, and when asked about how was the consent taken to activate the VAS this too was unable to be answered. I have raised complaint on Twitter, customer service number and emailed them. they have not been able to give any resolution. i have been charged incorrectly since quite a few years. I had opted out of physical bills and was paying through the app. I feel cheated.
Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

    I recharged for 379 rupees pack with a Rs.50 coupon applied to it making the amount Rs. 329. The amount has been deducted from the bank but my mobile number wasn't recharged.

    The transaction summary for this in my bank account's statement is as follows

    E COM PUR ECOM TX SEQ NO[protected] TERMINAL ID 81800519 DATE (MMDD) 1029 TIME (HHMMSS) 131724
    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
    To be clear, the recharge was done through the airtel app.

      My Airtel number got deactivated with no prior notice. Can't contact customer care operator because nowadays it's just full of advertisements and no option can be found to talk to the operator. I use the number in my workplace and I want it to be activated urgently.

            For some reason i was not able to make calls from my phone. So I walked into a nearby airtel store where I was told that the card was old and hence they replaced my card. It did not solve the problem. The guy in shop fiddled with my handset and he could not do anything. I went to another store, however he could not figure it out as well. The issue is my new sim works in other phone, but not in my phone. At the same time my phone accepts another airtel sim and allows to make a call, but not this one. I have thus not been using the phone for last month and my 400 rupees have been a waste largely. I went to the store again on26.10.20. They changed my sim again. It is still not working. I went on 27th, and a guy tried to help genuinely. He said my calls were barred and he was trying to reset the same. No relief so far.
            I tried calling on the customer service numbers which are useless. There is no option to talk to a real person . There is NO way that I can get my problem sorted out and I am tired now. The app dignostics says your phone is 4G and upgrade the sim. Your shop said it had an issue with VOLTE. Now if it was so, why was it working fine for quite some time? If my issue is not solved in next four days, I will be forced to switch to other provider.

                    Pls note: Complaint initiated date is Aug 2020 and not yet resolved. Refund of Rs. 50, 000/- to Reliable Concept Marketing Private Limited(SR[protected]

                    I don’t understand an organization so huge but has a pathetic customer service experience department.
                    First of all you are repeatedly asking for the same details which has been provided on 11th September and it is part of this trail mail. It shows you all don’t read the customer complain mails at all.
                    Secondly in my mail below I have asked for an explanation or a call which I am yet to receive.
                    I need a detailed explanation With regards to deadline date by Airtel as to when I will get the refund of Rs.50000/- in my account?
