      Hello,

      I subscribed for an airtel broadband connection (Fixed line id - [protected]) in february and even after one month, they have not provided the landline services. I open complaints that are soon closed on the pretext that it will be solved soon. Now they have the excuse of lockdown (which is fair, but where were they over the last one month, before the lockdown).

      Secondly, the local airtel people are harassing my by asking for installation fee over and over again even though I have made them talk to the airtel support customer care. The rule clearly says that annual plans do not have any installation fee (as it is waived off). But still, they are asking for Rs. 750.

      Resolutions I want -
      1) As per contract, the airtel cannot charge me installation amount as it expressly says on their website that it will be waived off on annual plans.
      2) Landline services should be provided once the lockdown ends. Also, the amount should be offset in the billing since I haven't been able to use the service for over a month.

                        Airtel broadband took the payment promising service activation within one day. It has been days after making the payment but not getting any updates. Tried calling customer care but no response. There was numerous follow-ups after expressing interest in opening a new connection. Once the payment is made and got our money there is no activity done to activate the connection. Feel cheated.

                          Dear concern,

                          I am facing this issue since 28th mar'19. Whenever anyone try to call me they are getting message as number is invalid, i am not able to send or receive any message also. I have tried to contact customer care also but after being on hold for 25 minutes the call has been disconnected. I can understand that due to corona virus manpower has been cut down but try to understand problems of consumer also specially...

                              Address: CQAL Layout, 1st Main Road, Bangalore-64, 560064

                              This is to inform you that I've visited Airtel store at Yelahanka, New town Bangalore-64 to inquire about good internet plan.

                              I was told about airtel 749/- plan and along that to buy wifi router (Model No. BMF422, IMEI [protected], S/N BMF[protected] by paying additional INR 2000.

                              I did as I was assured the best service. But within 10 days o[censored]sing the router, I found it gets switched off multiple times even if there is a sufficient charge in the battery.

                              In most often the battery drain very fast. It don't even support internet usage more than 40 mins and I was told it can last for 6 hours. This is mere cheating to costumer.

                              I've tried calling the customer care for the last 15-20 days but its never connects. And in current situation of lock down its difficult to work from home with out hassle free internet.

                              This is the most worst wifi router I've come across so far. I had used other wifi routers by Jio and Vodaphone, those were very good compared to Airtel router which is currently sold. The quality is substandard and I discourage anyone to buy substandard router, its a waste paying INR 2000 for such devices. Airtel should stop selling such substandard products and not to fool consumers by charging INR 2000., its not even worth paying INR 500 considering the performance.

                              Additionally I've tried increase the data limit in my alternate no., that too is been locked and the message appears to contact customer care. Where on earth I can raise this complains, as the airtel stores are closed and customer care is never reachable in any of the nos.

                              The reason I have switched to Airtel from Jio is coz of its coverage but this are some of the real time issues was not aware.

                              At least the technical team should be there to address the issues and it comes in essential.
