puk code and date of birth

My airtel sim card is locked and its asking for puk code. So i called on the customer care number (121) but they were asking for the date of birth in dd/mm/yyyy format but after inputting it, it says that the date of birth is wrong how is that possible, how come it shows wrong. Here is some issue with their system. I need help here because my sim card is locked and i am not able to connect to the executive due to the corona virus outbreak....

      The worst thing is there is no log (history) of it.

          Hi team,

          This is regarding my airtel sim [protected]. I have sent them emails and tried to reach them thought calls and email services i still did not get a response i dont want to pay bill for the service for the sim that i am not using. As i keep getting notification to pay the bill and this is fustrating me. They just send a automated email to authenticate the sim, the old sim i was using was for internet connection i dont have services for calls and messages so i am not getting otp to that number or the alternative number given either to authenticate as requested. I am not paying aything that i am not using.

          Please have it resolved for me at the earliest.
          My contact no. [protected]

          I have pasted the below email that i has sent airtel earlier.

          This is regarding my internet connection sim card which i had been using for a very long time the number is [protected], and i would like to cancel it.

          I have recently got another dual airtel sims with good offer the number for the new sim is [protected] and [protected] at the time i called the airlet customer service i was not able to reach them because of the covid19 situation hence i checked on the airtel application there was no option to have it cancelled.

          Please have the old number that is [protected] cancelled and i would not be able to pay the bill which is generated after i brought the new sim as i stopped using it. It is not anyone mistake to blame because i tried to reach on my end to customer care due to covid situation no one is available i am not able to reach none i tried couple of times. I did not know i would get a response for my email. I am thankful i could reach some one through email services please look in to this as soon as possible and i don't want to receive another bill payment message.

          Revert to me at the earliest.

          Please cancel only [protected] this number.

          Regards,
          Manjunath

                      When i ported in nto airtel the network coverage was fine and internet and calling experience was excellent... But as so many regional customers ported in into airtel in free port in schems it made the internet speed and calling pathetic... The towers in our area has to be calibrated. I am facing this issue since last 3 months... I have given by area code and cell details
                      I hope issue will get resolved as soon as possible

                                On March 24th onwards my mobile number deactivated without any notification.
                                More than 25 days I have no options to find out the way, how to reach the Airtel Team (bcoz of COVID-19). my prepaid validity of the pack is reduced day by day
                                I missed my clients' calls for more than 25 days.

                                      Hello, i'm using your network (4g pack) for the last 10 years. I have recharged for unlimited pack amounting to inr.598 through online on 14th apr'2020. The transaction was failed but the amount has been deducted from my bank a/c. Till date it has not credited back to my account. Once the transaction is failed you have to proper steps to refund that amount. 7 days got over till now and i'm not sure what steps you've taken so far. I'm losing my interest for these periods. You cannot expect the customer has to raise a query to you asking refund. Waste of my time and your time. Try to be a customer friendly. The details of the failed transaction status are mentioned below for your reference. Expedite your process. Thanks airtel mobile no : [[protected]] amount of recharge : inr. 598 - 50 (Discount) = 548 date of transaction : 14th april 2020 airtel transaction id : [[protected]] bank name : hdfc bank bank reference no : utib[protected]] bank narration : [bhartiairtellimite]-citrusairtel
