Airtel Complaints & Reviews

My complaint reference I'd is
3418625
So far neither Airtel company nor distributor bothered to answer my problem, 10days passed, iam not able to recharge my valued customer, they have to walk a mile to recharge Airtel
The Airtel company does not look after the retailers complaint who done a recharge of Airtel for more than 15years
I don't understand what type of management, it is really pity to note
Atleast have a query, what problem the retailers are facing.
Even today sun dth, Vodafone, and BSNL distributor send the distributor representative to EC AMOUNT and collect the money from retailers
Why Airtel cannot follow the same rules
Kindly look into the matter and do the needful,
Thankyou

I have received two messages from customer care regarding the activation of numbers. I attempted to contact the Airtel customer care and complaint, however was not able to register the complaint.
The details of the messages received are as follows:

Thank you for your interest in Airtel! We have received your request for activation of mobile number [protected] with transaction reference no.(CAF no.) I[protected]. The same will be activated with in 10 minutes.

Thank you for your interest in Airtel! We have received your request for activation of mobile number [protected] with transaction reference no.(CAF no.) A13A1E29WE. The same will be activated with in 10 minutes.

This request was not made by me. I want to lodge a complaint against fake sms and activation of number for which I have not applied.

I have submitted my visa extension copy via email to continue the service twice! and yet the service was cut, this is unacceptable. and the customer service line has no option of talking to an agent all service options!!!

I am unable to activate my iMessage and FaceTime in my iphone. I contacted apple support and they mentioned that i need to ask help from my service provider

Transaction pending in start date 24/04/2023

Airtel prepaid mobile recharge amount deducted but plan not activated...

Mr Meganathan Executive Coimbatore visited my flat and gave assurance connection will be done within a day. I had paid rs.3532.92/- on 19th April 2023 for new broad band connection. After payment, they told me to wait for 30 days to give new connection. then airtel executive called me that there is not service near my residence and i'll get refund. It's almost 10 days Mr Meganathan is not picking my call and didn't get service or any refund. Request you to look into this and do the needful.

Complaint against the Pathetic Support / Sales Service from Airtel.

I am writing this detailed letter (refer attachment) after feeling helpless and finding that no tangible redressal is provided to me by any of your Support / Sales personnel who from time to time had sold me various Plans & services. Further, I am astonished by the level of incompetence among the various personnel who are either ill-informed about the various Plans and procedure(s) or are simply oblivious about the protocols of the company and process to be adopted while shifting from one Plan to the other.

There has been no positive response from them. I expect the matter to be resolved at the earliest and would be highly obliged of the earlier Invoices over which GST Credit couldn’t be availed should be rebilled upon our Firm and the ITC be provided against the amount duly paid and the subject Invoices be set off against the payments previously made. Please note that we ported all our Connections from Vodafone-Idea / Jio to Airtel just to ensure that GST ITC could be availed against the amount being paid for Mobile & other services. The time & effort that was put into this entire process would go to vain if we are unable to claim these Expenses as our business expense & avail the GST-ITC as this was the whole idea behind initiating the shift.

I have recharged my airtel number for 181 but it is not reflecting in my balance

Dear sir,
Im using Airtel from past 6 year. Till now im not facing this type of problem.my sim card is not working from last 3 week. No network showing.i also inset sim in another for checking but still not working.i also raised the complaint.still now noone call me back.pls help me.

My 7 GB of additional data and 1 GB of daily data were stolen by Airtel. In order to do work, I typically use my laptop to connect to the internet via a mobile hotspot. Since I started doing this in 2020, it has never exceeded a maximum of 2 GB per 9 hours of work. However, today, April 23, 2023, Airtel took almost 8 GB in just 2 hours. I also confirmed that, throughout this period, my laptop and mobile device did not automatically upgrade any applications or operating systems.

This is to bring to your kind attention that I have initiated a request for getting a Dth connection of Airtel at my flat located in kondapur, Telangana, India. I have been immediately charged with a payment of INR 4, 000 for the connection and 6 months subscription. Later I was informed that it is not possible for the installation in our building and I was informed that the refund would be processed. Inspite of my continuous follow up, i still don't have any idea on the status of my refund. My order ID is[protected] and the customer ID given is [protected]. Kindly look into the same.

Hi Team,

I have recharged on wrong number for amount 301. Can you please help .

I am writing to express my disappointment with the unprofessional behavior of one of your representatives at your mobile store. During my recent visit, the representative attempted to sell a scheme for porting an additional number to my father's existing postpaid connection.

Despite my father declining the offer, the representative persisted and contacted us later to ask for the port number. When we refused, the representative provided false information, claiming that their salary would be affected and that we would have to pay for the change in connection even though we had not shared the port number.

The representative was rude and unprofessional, and even stated that they should not have helped us during our previous visit to the store.

This experience was frustrating and has left a negative impression of your brand. I kindly request that you investigate the matter and take appropriate action to ensure that your representatives provide better customer service in the future.

Iam a retailer for last 15years in Airtel
My distributor is TAMBIS TAILORS VELLAKOVIL TIRUPUR dist TAMILNADU
My monthly average recharge to my customer Rs 70000/-in my locality
He told me that if you want EC AMOUNT, send it through MITRA APP through UPI ID.
Auto refill and manual recharge to retailer stopped as per the instructions of MITRA APP
IAM not able to create UPI ID for my account as my account is joint account with my wife
Bank staff tolde you cannot create UPI ID as your account is joint account
Now what can I do
Hence kindly instruct the distributor to follow the old procedure either Auto fill or mannual recharge of my retailer number
Even I asked DISTRIBUTORB TAMBIS TAILORS VELLAKOVIL to give his business account number so I can send the money to you through mobile app and after receiving the money you do EC AMOUNT transfer to my retailer number then he told only through MITRA APP only you can get the EC AMOUNT
HENCE, kindly inform the MITRA APP TO follow the procedure
Thankyou sir

Mr. Sunil Bharti Mittal

I am trying to get Airtel Fiber installed.

Address - 603, Bldg-7, Phase-1, Haware City, Boriwade, Ghodbunder RD, Thane(West), Pin- 400607

Spoke to customer service a few days back & got a assurity that it will be done soon on a priority basis. Also did speak to Vinay Dubey - [protected] who is the person who gives services in my area. Vinay gave me a reason that his mother expired & he is at his native place & would not be able to come soon as in hindu tradition the terawa needs to be done for people who already have travelled to heaven. Which is an acceptable reason for which I have my condolences.
He assured me that someone will attend me & NO ONE HAS ATTENDED.
I just spoke to him 15 minutes back & he has to say that he has spoken to 2 persons & nobody has time OR taking interest to give service.

I CANNOT WEIGHT FOR 13 DAYS & WAIT FOR MR. DUBEY TO COME BACK & GIVE ME SERVICE.

AIRTEL HAS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.

Thanks & Regards

मैं अपना नम्बर आईडिया में पोर्ट करना चाहता हू, क्योकि मेरे यहाँ एयरटेल का नेटवर्क ठीक नही हैं, लेकिन मेरे नम्बर में upc कोड नहीं आ रहा हैं ना ही कस्टमर केयर से बात हो पा रहीं हैं इन का नम्बर बस वेटिंग में रहता हैं,
यही मेसेज आता हैं जब पोर्ट के लिए मेसज करता हु UPC cannot be generated as there are subsisting contractual obligations with your service provider. Please contact your service provider for further assistance.

For Xstream fiber installation I paid 4000 rupees to Airtel and before installing the package I cancelled and I got the message that amount will be refunded in 7 working days.

I cancelled on 28th March and till today I haven't received the refund despite so many mails to the Airtel.

My Airtel Xstream fiber application No is [protected].
New Airtel account [protected].

I ported to Airtel network last month and the first recharge pack got expired last week. Next day the sim is showing no network and I am unable to make or receive any calls/SMS.

After calling through an another sim, both the customer care executive and the senior customer care executive asked to visit the Airtel store and and replace with a duplicate sim card by paying Rs. 50 and ended the call without giving valid reasons for sim going bad. Even the company is denying to replace the sim through their doorstep sim delivery for new connections.

This issue with the sim card arises due to low quality in sim card manufacturing and testing by airtel. It looks like this same issue will occur again for the new duplicate sim and I have to through these processes again.

Why the customer needs to pay for a duplicate sim when it is damaged within 1 month of purchase due to low manufacture quality? I need my sim to be replaced without any cost and at the doorstep.
