            I have travelled to Singapore on dec 2022. I have opted IR services on. But I never used internet. Still i have charged 6.5rs for 10kb. That costed around 2751rs. Without using data, every 3hrs 10kb is consumed and over all usage is around 195*10kb charged me around 2751.
            Customer care doesn't understand the problem they are saying i have used 10kb.
            I don't know what all we can do with 10kb data. They have simply charging extra

              Dear Sir

              I had visited Kolkata Park Street Airtel Main store to find out about 5G connectivity. One employee of Airtel in the store told me that I am entitled for one more SIM card . I asked if it will increase my postpaid bill? He said no. Your bill will be same as before.

              After few days I got my postpaid bill with extra charges for new SIM. So I went to the same store again. Same employee told me that do not pay extra amount. Pay your main bill. I paid my regular bill of Rs 1182 for DTH, andd 2 SIM numbers. Third number additional bill was not paid by me.

              In the next bill cycle my main bill it self was Rs. 1464/= instead of Rs. 1182/=

              That means the employee of the Kolkata Park Street Airtel store gave me wrong information.

              Please cancel my third SIM card number [protected] as I do not need the same. And coorect my bill to 1182/=

              Thank You

                      Complaint number: [protected]

                      Broadband services got disconnected on Saturday afternoon and still the issue is not resolved after 4 days and 21 calls customer care.
                      Spoke with multiple associates, Senior associates, Managers and none of them provided resolution.

                      So many promises were made like allow me sometime to get it resolved, sir, field is not answering, I'll get it resolved by tomorrow morning..

                      they have been providing the diversions instead of resolutions. None of the filed agents callled me and even If I called to agent who installed me, he is saying that we can only work when we the ticket assigned to me they are not even taking the ownership to resolve the issue. even the managers are assigning a different agent to and they are not even providing the alternative solutions.

                      Who will compensate the time taken to call them 21 times, I recharged data multiples times and will they compensate the time taken to workj on this issue, such a irresponsible customer services. Please look into this.

                              Hi sir,
                              I've taken 6 months of Airtel Xtream fiber with the price of 4000/- on 3Rd Nov 2022.Made payment on the link provided by Airtel representative. The payment was success from my side. xtream purchased through sales manager
                              (G.SUDIN
                              AIRTEL sales manager
                              AIRTEL. BROADBAND
                              Mobile: [protected])

                              And representative
                              (Bharath
                              [protected])

                              They gave 6 month combo offer, and Amazon and Disney hotstar 3month free, That's why am changing my existing tata sky dth and local broadband if any tariff different mean i continued as on same network. recently i got mail from Airtel to pay bill …I was purchased with 6 month combo…how it would come within 3 month itself.., then i spoke customer care and sales manager, they said 3 months only paid 2600 from customer care, and sales manager said 4.5 months tariff given, if 4.5 month tariff mean is just per month 826 rs without offer whoever get this 4000 bulk payment, .I don't understand

                              amount which I paid u has validity of still 1.5month more….how your are calculating? Y I should pay again and again….Airtel is a big network I didn’t expect this from them…kindly give a proper response for my amount which I paid Rs.4, 000

                              here i attached Airtel broadband no and bill copy and recently received 4.5 month tariff slip, and mode of payment acknowledgement.
                              my main problem that time your representative don't gave any acknowledgement,

                              From your side they asked me to pay the bill before 28th….so kindly solve this issues as soon as possible

                              Thanking you

                                  Airtel has falsely deducted 10 rs from my account balance. Despite not answering or making any calls they have deducted the amount. 20 rs has already been deducted. I had faced similar issue back in December as well where I had lost 80 rs from my balance because of this malpractice. Either you justify the reason for deduction with proof or else I'll be forced to escalate this issue at higher level.

                                    Airtel has falsely deducted 10 rs from my account balance despite me not answering or making any calls. They don't have any proper redressal system in place. 20 rs have already been deducted from my account. Had faced similar situation in December as well. Attaching the proof for reference.
