Hi team. I have paid 3months of fee on 07/09/20 but still i have not received broadband connection and received one message as could not be progressed. After this am trying to do all possibilities to communicate with them but non of them are responding even the guy who came for collecting document n received payment via airtel link he is also not responding. If the connection is not possible at least refund my amount 2828rs.

    I made 2 payments towards my airtel one plan (Broadband + postpaid mobile) for the month of july immediately after the payment request came. The amount has been debited from my account in full. However, their systems are only recognising part of the payment. Rs. 1100 is shown outstanding somehow.

    I have been following up with them for 2 months on this but they have not resolved this. They also disconnected my mobile phone. I have paid the payment for the month of august in full as well.

    Till now no resolution has been given from their side. All their email ids and phone numbers say the same thing. It will be resolved in 48 working hours but it is never resolved till now.
    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
    I have already reached out to customer support, nodal office, appellate office and the central office support. By email, phone calls and complaint numbers. I even went to their service centres to have my phone reactivated which Airtel disconnected even after making the full payment and having a credit balance outstanding.

    I am receiving calls every 2 days from a different representatives asking the same issue again and again and promise resolutions in 48 hours - Since July 2020.

    So simply notifying them of this complaint is not going to work as they already have 10 Service Requests numbers generated which they promptly closed without a resolution and no longer generating any more requests.

      I have a complaint to airtel customer care regarding my contact number [protected]. This number attached to my other number ([protected]). After call to airtel cc. I separated this number. He told me after 1 month you can port your number. After this when i was gone to airtel store near me gtb nagar, a female executive told me that in the store sim is not available at this time for postpaid to prepaid, you have a check after 2 days. Again went there after 2-3 days they told the same sim is not available due to covid19 it will take time 10- 15 days. And after went there again they told me the same. After that my health was not in good condition. I have to the operation of stone in the kidney on 15 aug. I was on bed rest for 22 days. Due to this, i have to left my job also. Now airtel ce called me for payment. How it is possible sir when i did not use that number and it was not my fault if your store hasn't sim. I am not able to pay 1400/- amount as per airtel ce told me for 3 months pending bill. I will pay only 1month as per my plan. I requested to you kindly give the right solution.
      I have attached my hospital pic.

        Initially i have booked airtel digital tv but installing not happened and they refused to install in my location and they said will refund the money but they didn't refund.

        Then i have sent email to Airtel requesting refund with in 3 months(06 Mar 2020) and they asked me to provide cancelled cheque and my communication details i have provided all those thing. but i didn't receive refund.

        Then i have sent another mail on 26/08/2020 now they are saying they can't refund after 90 days

        Ideally Request itself not required as the cancellation happened from Airtel end. but still i have raised request within the timeframe.
        Bcoz of their ignorance now they are saying the cant pay my Money.

                      I raised a complaint because the static public ip they provided me, had some issues. I configured a mail server for which i am paying airtel tele bharti media & in return when i asked for a technical help for more than 15 days they kept on telling me, someone will call you. No one has that professionalism to interact with customers. It's a simple issue,!! I took this static ip so that my mail server could work, & i am using it for a relay purpose, where internet spammers, website like spamhaus, barracuda, blocked my ip as they believe its not legitimate & only isp could whitelist the ip as they can make some changes in their dns server /firewall. Someone named ranjith, who is lead engineer told me sir this will be resolved, it's one week now & no one is even bothered to help me.

                        I did a recharge of rs 249 on airtel prepaid mobile number. The amount was deducted but the recharge did not reflect on my account and there is no record of this transaction in my recharge history. I tried reaching the customer care from both call as well as mail, but it gets connected to automated machines and not to any representative.

                              Its been frustrating 2 weeks just to find a method to connect my email id to telephone no - though on the airtel thanks app it is verified. Only to apply for an esim.
                              The self online method does not allow, there is no way to connect to an airtel customer person on 121, there is no specific email id to put the matter forth, there is no specific option on the ivr menu, the airtel shops do not have the authority, local executives like tsm of the area also are helpless.

                              So in all essence there is no way to connect to a human entity for any correspondence.
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                              I am facing the same issue
                              I was not able to update the email id for esim, after struggling hours on 121 I was able to connect to Customer support, try this trick
                              Dial 121
                              Select Languale
                              Select (1) prepaid or (2) postpaid
                              Select (2) for more information
                              Select (3) for internet not working/sim lost/other complaints
                              Select (9) for Customer support

                              Trick is to lister whole IVR instruction as they are telling "connect to customer representative" after they tell "go back to main menu" option.

                              My status : Got a request raised on 6th sept, got a verification call today and by tomorrow the email Id should be updated. Also you can track this request in Airtel Thanks App (althought you cannot raise it from the app).
                              Do connect me on [protected] whatsapp for more info, I am just a customer like you :-)

                                    Two weeks ago i came to know that Airtel fiber is available in my area so, i applied on the website link. The other day a guy came to visit my home to know the details and book the connection on the address, he demanded the payment right away, I agreed and paid the money on the generated link. I got the assurance that the connection will be installed within 72 hours. After 3 days with no follow up on their behalf i contacted the same person who came to visit the address and he said their is testing to be done and a fault came up and will be rectified in 2 days. I waited those three days including the weekends after that. I though i finally be getting the connection today but as, i contacted him he gave me other error has occurred while testing, I said i did not sign up for these excuses. I still wait for my new connection this is really a shame that a consumer is treated like a dirt on the ground.

                                      Dear team,

                                      If your person or your company unable to give us a proper service than please shut-down your broadband service, i think the company will automatically shutdown because of your employees.

                                      First, while i was talking to your team for a new connection they were calling me again' again' for the request and when i've paid everything for the connection now they're not responding they are not picking up my calls. They gave me the commitment that after the payment your installation will done within 1-2 hours. Well between 2-3pm i've done the payment and till now no call from your side, i didn't a single conformation mail or message till now. How can trust your in future now.

                                      I'm sharing you the numbers, with whom i was talking
                                      Name: vishal (Mentioned in true caller)
                                      Number: [protected]

                                      Number: [protected]

                                      My registered request number for broadband is: [protected] and mail id: [protected]@gmail.com

                                      I hope i will also not get a reply of this mail.

                                      Thank you
                                      Mohit chugh

                                      This mail i've sent to the company.
