I purushotham singh t recharged mobile on the below details.

Order No: 97514112

Recharge Amount: 98
Date:[protected]:55:53
We are getting numerous unwanted calls from unknown numbers on regular basis. Please help me to get the call details of prepaid mobile no. [protected] for the period 01.12.2019 to 31.12.2019. Call details of last 10 days will do also. Your help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
I am trying to chose a plan worth Rs.227 but whenever I try to proceed the amount get increase to 750, and provide no reason for that. Now what should I do
The airtel 4g network is very poor. Even in places where full signal is available, 4g doesn't work at all. Secondly, the 4g stops working when on call whereas other providers don't have this issue.

    I have applied for the fastag from airtel payment bank on dec 27, 2018. On dec 31, i got message that your fastag will be delivered in 6-8 days.
    But i havent received it yet.
    When i try to call customer care @400 there was no option to select fastag related queries and no option to talk with customer executive.
    It is very frustrating and no option to know where is my fastag. They should either deliver my fastag in 2 days or refund my rs. 450

      I have airtel $g hot spot [protected] for the last two months. I received bill of inr 675 while my plan is 399+tax. There is no one to talk on phone 121 because it is automated. Services have been discontinued much before last day of payment which was 5 jan 2020. Even if i want to pay amount so called overdue website says it has sent otp which is actually sent 1-2 hours afterwards, i have emailed customer services but response is automated.

              I ordered fastag on 14th December and on 17th December I got a message that your order is validated and it will be delivered in next 14 days. But its been 21 days now and I have no idea about the exact location of fastag and I am repenting about the mistake I committed for ordering it through Airtel. Kindly credit the amount deducted from my wallet again in my wallet so that I can order it from some other portal like Paytm etc. I also composed lot of mails but all in vain because there is no response from the customers care end also. AIRTEL MEANS JOKE. Really shameful matter. This is the reason why people prefer other companies.

                  I have notified airtel executive for n number of time to update my mailing address and send bill to my registered mailing id. But they are not listening to my concern and forwarding bill to same other mail id. I have already furnished coordinator details on company's letter pad to airtel executive but no proper response received from there end i have been pissed off with there irresponsible behaviour. For last two month i have not received any bill hence payment was not made for same. Now they are charging late payment of that bill that i didnt even received. Kindly look after the issue and resolve the same.

                      I use Airtel Broadband in Pune. In Nov-19 and Dec-19 during the normal billing cycle period, I got 50% data consumed message and I was totally surprised. I just have a PC & mobile and no other device, no other user and I never had so much of consumption.

                      I found significant uploads data logged as my usage under my account.
                      I complained to Airtel. They did not provide any answer to my complaint and provided no answer even after 10 days. Rather they said there can not be any complaint for data consumption.

                      Something is fishy at Airtel end which they are not ready to share. Users are requested to be alert and daily check their usage against their account on Airtel website to be sure that there's no data logging mistake on part of Airtel.

                        I have been using Airtel Prepaid connection from last 3-4 years now.

                        i live in pul prahlad pur area near badarpur.

                        i have ported my sim from Reliance to Airtel thinking that its is a good service provide in networks while there plans were also higher than others.

                        now i have also changed my smart phone if it has any problem but actual problem is in Network .

                        Even calls drop almost 80% times even when i am using 2G network .

                        I am even mentioning about internet which is gone worse than that .

                        Call drops when my phone showing all the network sticks.

                        All these problem occured from last 6 - 8 months. there customer support says that network coverage is strong in your location then why call drops .
                        call were even droping while i was taking to there customer support.

                        they are not even looking to resolve this, And this is not only my problem every friend, family and people in are have same problem

                        I am moving from Airtel to any other network.

                            I have ported from Vodafone to Airtel It was troublesome right from the beginning. The Airtel Executive (Took it from Airtel Store, Beside Aditya Enclave, Ameerpet) gave me a new SIM card, so i have to wait for another 48 hours and then he gave me another SIM onto which my number was ported.
                            After that i was unable to receive any calls from any number. Called up Customer Care, they said it will take another 48hrs to fix the issue.
                            Today its more than 20 days but no solution form Airtel Side and whenever use to call customer care they gave me another time line of 3 days, after 3 day again given timeline of 3 days and have the same answer i.e your complaint is open we will exolete the issue and will revert but never received any call. Its been more than 20 days since i have lodged a complaint and still the issue is same and i am missing all my important calls, My business executives generally reside in US/Canada and they are unable to reach me which is hindering my business productivity. None of them are able to connect to my number. Its very critical that i have to be available on phone. Please do the necessary.

                            I am ok if they can backport my number to Vodafone. Vodafone was lot better in Technical resolutions

                            Thanks,
                            Harvinder Kaur

                              I am unable to recharge my number after porting from Jio. It’s been 3 days. I cannot recharge online. It gives an error saying “unexpected error has occurred”. When I recharge through app money is deducted from my account but then I get a message saying recharge failed and money will be refunded. I tried recharging from Airtel store also and there also I am getting an error. What is the point of porting from Jio if my number is not going to work? My incoming validity is only till tomorrow. How am I supposed to stay in contact with people when my number wouldn’t be working? Absolutely appalling and horrendous experience with airtel! I want this issue to be resolved as soon as possible.

                                I have ordered fast tag id through airtel app, i received message that my fast tag id delivered. Till now when i check through airtel thanks app it is still showing delivered but I have not received yet due to this i am facing issue at toll plaza.
                                This is very frustrating as my friends order fastag from other service providers like paytm and they got there fastag in 7 days.

                                Whenever i check the customer care executive always busy the call get disconnected.

                                My airtel number is [protected]

                                  It has been 15 days since i have raised the complaint about my airtel sim activation.
                                  I ve changed my plan in postpaid from 299 to 199. For this the airtel regional service fellow said that sim should be changed and it woukd take 2 working for activation.
                                  Im highly disapoointed with the service of you people. Ive called so many times but you people are giving same template answer that it get resoved in 24 hours. What if there is an emergency for me.. Hiw should i contact. Am unable to book cabs or contact or use bank apps.
                                  There is no incoming outgoing and no messeges also. This should be escalated to higher level

                                    Hello airtel team,

                                    I am an airtel user from more than 15 years now. I am facing a very serious problem with airtel right now.

                                    I am not able to call or receive any call. I tried registering a complaint from a different airtel number, but complaint was not registered.

                                    Can you please look into this urgently and provide a solution. I cannot work as my business connections are not able to reach out to me.

                                    Please look into the matter.

                                    Thanks and regards,
                                    Nishant sonuley

                                      To Whomsoever it may Concern.

                                      As observed that the "Bharti Airtel" was one of the best Telecommunication Cellular Network provider Company. But nowdays it is the worst Network providers. With most of its UNTRAINED & Illiterated staff in this digital world. Hence it is a peronal advice to the concern Authorities to please wind-Up your business of Cellular network and better start up with some Fresh n New business like - Chat-panipuri or Sandwitch etc. Because the quality of services & Recruited staff deserve that type of business.

                                      Also due to growing demand in Telecommunication sector, there shall be better openings for the New Network providers who deserve it.

                                      So it is just a kind advice to better empty the space asap for the Newcomers to fullfil the criteria as it shall also be helpful in the betterment of the Nation.

                                      Regards
