I never signed up for postpaid on prepaid number for airtel. I made an enquiry for airte postpaid connection and got a new postpaid connection. Now i'm getting postpaid payment notification for my prepaid number.
I checked on airtel thaks app and showing my prepaid connection as postpaid now.

I didnt signed up for this. And i tried to contact airtel customer care. Only ivr self help options available. Couldnt find any articles in faq in airtel website/application.

Dute to covid-19 lockdown i'm unable to visit any airtel store to enquire about this.
I want an action that to restore my prepaid connection.

          Hello,

          On 14th of april 2020, i had recharged for rs.598 (Valid for 84 days-1.5gb/day), through airtel thanks app. To this recharge a coupon of rs.40 was applied in the airtel thanks app. The money was deducted from my account, but i couldn't see the recharge reflecting in my account. I checked with the 'transaction history' in airtel thanks app several times, and couldn't find the transaction.

          So kindly look into the issue at the earliest, as additional rs.45 will deducted from my balance.

          Regards,
          Arjun n l

            Dear sir,

            I was holding airtel number [protected]. By entering wrong passwords the sim got blocked. I need a puk code to use this airtel sim card. I am enclosing my aadhar card & copy of sim card for your reference. Actually, i think the number is under my nephew's name (Mohammed habeebuddin sameer), write now he is not here he is in the united kingdom studying there for future studies. I request you to change my name or send me a puk number to unlock the phone at the earliest.

            I hope you will do the needful at the earliest as my bank accounts are linked with this number.

                My airtel broadband stopped working in February 2020. I had called customer care multiple times in the same month but the issue was not resolved. I asked for deactivation of the services on the call, but again nothing was implemented.

                After that, the landline that was provided to me with the broadband stopped working and there was no way for me to reach customer care on phone. I sent an email to airtel customer care on March 21, 2020. I got no response, it has been more than 25 days. Moreover, I get a call on my mobile every now and then to pay the bill for the last two months, but when I ask them to discontinue their services, I get no help in the same.

                          I have ported my sim from dolphin to airtel but even after so many days i am not able to recharge the airtel number. Everytime it shows recharge failed when i select the operator as airtel and my incoming and outgoing services are stopped. But when i select the operator as dolphin the recharge is successful but my dolphin sim shows no service when i insert it in the mobile.
                          Please resolve this.

The caf [protected] and the transaction id is[protected]. The airtel executive visited us on april 4 and placed the set up box with no connectivity and assured us that the connection will be up and working by april 6. Then again the executive visited us april 12 and assured that this be taken up soon. I am extremely fed up with the services and wanted them to either fix the issue or refund by money back.

                                Another fraud has been made through this complaint wherein Rahul Kumar Emp ID: 709145R called from phone no. [protected] and took INR 15000 from my account in the name of refunding my actual payment of Rs. 942. This is one of the worst experience i ever had.

                                  I am Airtel prepaid user and they are charging Rs 598 for unlimited calls and 4G internet for 84days. I have given many complaints to service provider that i am not getting internet even though it is showing as 4G it will take 2 to 3 mins sometime not even load Google home page.

                                    My father's airtel sim is not working for two days now. We have checked everything, reinserting sim, checking settings but nothing worked. We called customer care too but no one picked up the call.
                                    His number is [protected]. Please check the problem with this number.

                                    Can some one please help assess the problem with the sim?
                                    We recently recharged the sim too.
