My airtel connection for landline and wifi (Landline number: [protected]) got disrupted due to the cyclone amphan on 20 may 2020. Both landline and wifi are not working. A complaint was registered with the company on 2 june 2020 because the company refused to register any complaints before that. We explained that the connection has not been working since the cyclone and they said that a technician will call back within 4 hours. The technician called back but he did not do anything, just said that this is not a normal situation and they won't be able to help immediately. Then we find out that all our neighbours had their network restored because they paid the technician additionally and ours was not getting restored because we were not paying what is essentially a bribe to do the work on time. We called the airtel helpline again today and explained it to them again. They admitted that the complaint issued on 2 june 2020 was still pending so we can't issue a new complaint but that they have escalated it. We told them that it has been 20 days since we have not been receiving network and we are still paying for the service and we wanted some concession or waiver in our bill, but they did not offer any proper solution, just said that the technician will call me in 4 hours and see if they can fix the issue. We asked airtel to: 1. Fix our network connection without making us pay bribes to the technician 2. Give us a waiver in our bill for all the days that the service was not working.

It has been 8 days since we spoke with them and filed the complaint. Our issue has not been resolved, instead they have sent us our bill for payment.

                              Dear Airtel,

                              I am very sorry to inform you that 6 working days have been over and still no response from airtel service. I have complained on 1st june 2020 regarding unavailability of service error code B001.

                              Every time i call customer care and they are telling our service man will visit you today. But no one is there to attend and resolve the problem. I have been fed up of calling customer care and lastly i found to take action.

                              How can be so much delay in a premium paid service. And moreover i am being charged everyday @11 without availing the service.

                              Name-Soumalya Sen

                              I got call from a service boy on 3rd june and he told that he will visit me on the day but he didnt came the thing is now I am following up the service guy by calling him and he is saying lets see if I can manage I will come.

                              Service boy mobile no. -[protected]

                              Hope to get some positive feedback soon.

                                      Usually the daily data resets around 12am. But for the last 2 days, my daily data is not getting reset and it shows 0 gb. I still have my daily 2gb/unlimited pack validity for 20 more days. This is clear cheating by airtel.

                                        I went to the airtel store to surrender my connection. After arguing a lot they issued a request id. But the request id was for technical service not for surrender. I visited d store again, to surrender it but they are not ready to take the surrender process. They gave me another i'd and said it wil be done. But nothing happened instead i am getting calls from their technical teams to resolve the connection problem. I clearly mentioned them that i want to surrender. Here are the two i'd generated by them

                                        I just want to inform that. Today another representative of Airtel visited us and said that he is here to check any technical problems. According to him there is no surrender request taken by the Airtel. I told him I want to surrender the connection please assist me for that. But he has no idea of how to do that and asked me to dial 121 and do it but there is no such option given in 121. Could you please help me to surrender the connection. I don't want to pay unnecessary bills.
