I disconnected a connection from airtel over 3 months ago, [Feb] by calling customer care and letting them know I was done with their service because it kept disconnecting randomly, the technician said that they will do whatever it takes to fix it the next day, when it wasn't done the next day, I told customer care, I want to close the connection, they acknowledgeded the request on phone, they initially tried to tell me no sir are you sure, if we raise cancellation then it will negatively affect the technician's job, I was like I dont care man I still dont have internet, I am not paying for this, they reluctantly agreed, I got ACT same day installation and moved on, now I am beginning to doubt that the request for cancellation was never raised to protect the technician's fault for not fixing my line

Now I keep getting a call from random airtel hooligans claiming that my connection is still active and that I need to pay my lapsed bill

Who's at fault here? me? for not taking in writing that I have indeed closed my connection? if it helps, I contacted Airtel through that thanks app they have so I am pretty sure I can get logs of my conversation saying I closed it with them, but the conversation happened on phone and I can't tolerate the hooliganism, everyday 10-20 people random numbers message me saying you need to pay bill but as far as I am concerned I cancelled legally by calling airtel customer care, as a consumer, what else am I supposed to do?

I am extremely fed up of this and need help, it is negatively affecting me dealing with this nonsense everyday

If you believe this is my fault, happy to pay and move on, but no one replies to the emails I send customer care, different hooligans keep harassing every day, no resolution is in sight

Request help/support of any kind

    Hi All,

    I have been trying to separate the Airtel number from Primary number since last month and Airtel not processing the same.
    I have called multiple time to airtel on the number separation but they are not processing the request as the number need to physically verified, but when I have taken the number provided all the necessary document for postpaid connection.
    Looking at this scenario and I am out of station and residing in different city all together.

    Why airtel need physical verification now to separate the number.

    Number need to separate : +91-[protected]
    Primary number +91-[protected]

      Hi There,

      I am an Airtel Broadband customer since past 1 year. I am facing an issue with the broadband connection issue since last 4 days, I have been trying to reach out customer care but no use.

      Not even able to talk to customer care, the ticket always say will be resolved in 48 hours, but still not even assigned to the engineer.

      When we try to create a new ticket, it is pointing to the existing ticket which is not progressing.

      Please refer to the screenshot attached

                          Dear Sir,
                          I am writing to express my disappointment with the recent billing of my landline cum broadband bill. I have represented my concerns via chat bot and I simply get a notification that my request is closed. I have attached the screenshot to grab your attention. I have been a loyal customer of Airtel for the past 2 years and have never faced any issues with the services provided. However, I was unpleasantly surprised to see that I have been charged for an Amazon prime subscription that I did not opt for. This has caused unnecessary inconvenience and frustration for me.

                          I request an immediate intervention from the team to rectify this issue and remove the amount charged from my bill for the Amazon prime subscription so that I could make my payment at the earliest. I take my billing and payments seriously and do not appreciate any discrepancies in the billing process. I urge you to take this matter seriously and ensure that such errors do not occur in the future.

                          Additionally, I would like to request a change in my billing cycle to be between 1st of every month and 30/31 of the month. This will help me plan my finances better and ensure timely payments. I hope you will consider my request and make the necessary changes and also remove the late fee charged.

                          I have been a satisfied customer of Airtel for a long time and hope to continue to be one in the future. However, if such issues persist, I may have to opt out of your services. I trust that you will take prompt action and resolve this matter at the earliest.

                          Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.

                          Sincerely,

                          Jen Daniel

                            Address: Jodhpur

                            I want to port my number to another cellular network provider, when i am trying to generate porting code I am getting below message
                            "UPC cannot be generated as there is subsisting contractual obligations with your service provider."
                            It's been two months I have been continuously contacting customer care none of them are able to provide any resolution all they do, they take time to resolve issue with in 72 hours, and giving false assurance to resolve my issue and then they never contact to me, this is extremely disappointing and frustrating for me as those executives have no idea how to resolve my complain, that it is more than two months Airtel is unable to resolve my issue what a shame for company.
                            All the want to get my UPC code generated so that I can port out.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              I purchased an IR pack for 3999/- for USA. Cannot make or receive calls. Numerous complaints were made. No resolution. My pack expired after 30 days. Before expiry I told them NOT TO RENEW,
                              They have renewed!!
                              My number is [protected]

                                I have recharged for monthly Airtel Xstream Fiber for Rs. 1179/- on 14th April 2023. The recharge was successful but the internet was disconnected. I have raised multiple issues with Airtel customer care but they did not provide any solution or resolve the issue for 4 days.

                                Later I have asked them to cancel my connection and refund the amount but they said in prepaid plan they are not able to refund. How it could be possible when the user is not used any service and Airtel is not ready to refund?

                                I request you to help to get the refund and put a case on airtel for this process and behavior.

                                  It has happened three times since service started in August 2022: Sept 2022, October 2022 and April 2023. It is the same UK number (0044xxxxxx5094) that I have no idea about. I am very sure did not send these SMS.

                                  Airtel customer service rep called me and promised to engage proper team to fix it and make sure it does not happen again. Hopefully, I don't have to complain again on this matter. Kudo to Airtel's quick response. Thumb up.

                                    Hello sir/madam,

                                    I have recharged Rs 181 through Amazon App which was a invalid package but Airtel accepts the money. Yesterday i called the amazon customer care and told regarding this issue and then they forwarded the Refund message to Airtel. So can you please help me to get my refund back.

                                    Thanking you
