Address: Bharati Salai, 600014

I tried to recharge my airtel mobile - [protected] with Rs. 399 for which I received the following message through SMS. Bill payment of Rs. 399.00 has been initiated towards your airtel mobile [protected]. Txn ID:[protected]. The payment will get posted to your airtel account within maximum 4-hours. Please keep this Txn ID for future reference. However, after deducting the amount from my bank the package was not activated nor the money is refunded back to my bank account which is strange. I urge the authorities to kindly look into this issue at the earliest.

Thanks,

    Correct number intended - [[protected]
    Amount - 698.

        Address: Opp. Pragathi school. Vn reddy nagar colony,kushaiguda,500062, Hyderabad, Telangana

        I'm one of the resident of vn reddy nagar colony. We are facing very poor signal strength in my location. There are 3 airtel users in my house. Due to this problem data also not exceeding more than 500 mb. It leads to the waste of paying prepaid balance. Please take the necessary steps to solve this issue as soon as possible 🙏.
        Thank you for asking customer feedback.

              Hello sir, my name is Utkarsh Tiwari today my data balance deducted about 200 MB and when I called the customer service representative and told my problem rather then try to help me out they ignore that this is their fault and put all this on me and their customer service representative also try to convince me that this is my mistake because I use YouTube in high resolution (which I didn't) according to my Airtel thanks app I used 700.39 MB Data and my daily limit is 1.4 GB But according to Airtel, I have left only 537.3 MB Data which is wrong, because if I used 700.39 MB Data than I must still have 699.61 MB Data left on my account. And their behavior also really bad with me the way they talk and the amount of time they took (about 20 minutes) please help me because it happens with me alot of times but i ignore but right now this is serious. Thanks

                I was asked to pay the activation fee and promised same day installation. I paid the activation fee on 09.12.2019. ( Payment Confirmation attached ).It has been 3 days since and even after calling the representative at [protected] about 18 times, the service has not been activated yet. This is sheer irresponsibility and to some extent cheating through false promise on part of Bharti Airtel and its representatives.The nodal office number of Airtel for Karnataka circle is[protected]. I want full refund of the paid amount in the original account it was paid from.

                  Have been trying to reach out to Airtel escalation, social media team and also customer care since past 8days. They have no information on why & how my connection type was changed. Their backend team is the only one who supposedly has access to check, and they have not even touched the tip of my case/complaint yet.

                  No response to the Nodal officer yet.
                  The number updated on Airtel website is also false and even after entering the SR number, there is no response.

                  Pathetic service by Airtel as it has been over 24 days now since the complaint has been made.

                        I recharged my no [protected] with a three month recharge on 02 Dec 2019 through Airtel app as it was showing some scheme. Although my recharge was due on 10 Dec 2019. I received two txn id which I didn’t notice that time. But now my phone was not recharged after 10 Dec for the said recharge. And it says my outgoing and internet facilities have been removed and can receive incoming calls for next 5 days now or else recharge to use.
                        I can share both of my txn id if required. I tried contacting costumer care from other users phone but they didn’t do much about it and have few lame reasons to just end it.

Called the customer care, rep said, its active at their end and everything is up and running. sim is prepaid and been using the no from a very long time. need a resolution right away. I have re inserted the sim a lot of times, searched the network manually, automatically, nothing is working.

                                Airtel is making sim card corrupt every year and asking for proofs.
                                They also charge 25rs.. Assume they do this everyday for 10000 ppl in each region within a city.
                                Once submitted they took 24 hrs to activate the sim card for the same
                                Old number. This process and time taken for activation is atrocious
                                And adamant from airtel...

                                Please take some action on this complaintimoq
