I use airtel mobile network. Airtel had revised its tariffs yesterday (2nd december) where we have to pay rs. 499 for 2gb data per day sms and unlimited calls for 82 days. I tried this pack to recharge for my number through online recharge. But after debiting the amount airtel is sending me sms stating that pack is no longer valid and to recharge for rs 698 instead. This happened thrice and taken my money thrice.
If airtel cannot update its website or its app why should an online recharge or recharge via app should be enabled.
Why should such pack given in the app if it is no longer valid?.

    Airtel has hiked their recharge prices for the every plan. Plan of ₹448 is now turned into the ₹698 which is hiked by ₹250 directly. Airtel shame on you. If you didn’t revise these latest plans back to normal seriously you are about to loose so many customers this time because its over the limits for common man.

      Dear sir,

      I have recharged through airtel app for rupees 499 (50 rupees discount). After processing and amount deduction they informed me via sms that this pack is not valid. How stupid this is? They haven't updated their app. For that reason, why we customers should suffer horribly. I have contacted outlet near madurai bypass road kalavasal, they are very cool in saying that the amount will be credited within 10 days. I need my money with interest or else please file a complaint. I'm ready for anything. I have artifacts readily. Thanks

        Already mobile tariff rate were increased i. E minimum recharge of rs.35, now they are increasing for rs.49, and rs.129 plan were increased to 148 and other plans are also increasing up to 40% customer only suffer to your new tariff rate, your statement is business loss. Business strategy is on internal side, this is not a reason to increase the tariff, from future onward no one can to use the airtel network on your tariff were changed. Please kindly acknowledge the message and reduce the tariff rate at on customer needs & affordable price

          I am writing this mail to inform you that i am know seriously distressed by the service of airtel and the way your team is treating customer like me. I have installed this connection in the month of november by your sale marketing team (Bhopal) by the person name shoaib uddin which was referred to me by one of your technician name ratan lal verma (Bhopal). I contacted the sales person he told me all the plans and all the formality was done by ratan lal verma my plan includes

          16 mbps of speed and 50 gb of data per month and a bonus of 750 gb for every 4 months which will renew automatically this all were promised by sale marketing team (Bhopal) shoaib uddin know he is neither picking up my calls and when i have contacting customer care they r saying this is only one time offer means i will only get 750 gb one time but at the time of taking connection the he has said me that in every 4 months this bundled data will get renew automatically but it is not.

          This was the matter and airtel has provided me 1000gb of data and promised me the day it will end we will add more to this and the interaction id was[protected] you can check on this interaction id today when i called your customer care they says we cant do any thing we cant add any of the data to this account after telling the interaction id also i want a permanent solution on this thing i don’t want to again and again call airtel i beg for my right which was promised i want a full proper plan or i am going to take this matter a next level because the way you customer care talk to us its seriously pathetic.

          I want a speed enquiry on this and want higher authorities to look into this matter and provide me a solution.

          Hoping for a response which will help me.
          I want to have a telephonic conversation with any of your head i don’t want to talk to any of your customer care person i want to talk to a higher official.

            Airtel offered me to recharge with long term plan and assured me that they will continue that plan after expiry of 399 plan which was valid till 22.01.2019 but as soon i recharged with 1699 plan for 365 days validity. They started that plan from that day. Even i got message from airtel that your plan will be started from 22.01.2019. Now as i am talking with costumer care they just saying that extension in validity is applicable only on upto 6 months plan. What should i do now.

                Dear team,

                I would like to inform you that we have an issue with the airtel connections.

                We had given 16 airtel sim for cancellation on 31-jan-2019. Airtel enterprise team have cancelled our 01 numbers in the same time another 15 numbers one month later, and they have charged for that particular period and the difference amount for that one month rs-7023/-. We have asked for the waiver for that particular month and they accepted for the waiver and we have the email conversation regarding this issue.

                They have promised to give waiver but that balance is reflecting in our bill.
                I have attached old conversation mails for references, kindly go through this mail and take this concern to the next level.

                Help us with the waiver amount since this is not an small amount.

                I am sending this mail second time but no will response properly.

                Regards

                    Before making recharge of rs 558, i called to airtel executive to confirm about the terms and conditions, benefits of the particular plan. Airtel executive told me that new plan will start after existing plan will expire. Due to this assurance, i recharged the rs 558 plan in 77 days advance. After successful recharge of rs 558, i also got a confirmation message from airtel that, my new recharge is activated this is what airtel executive assured me as well.

                    But now, airtel unexpectedly ended my old plan of 558 before 77days of expire and activated my new plan (I. E. Rs. 558 plan). I called the airtel customer care executive regarding this and they are not responding me in proper manner. They are saying something differently what the executive promised me before the recharge. They also disconnecting my calls. Please help me on this as this is fraud/cheat with customers. I want all the benefits promised by airtel executive.

                    I have also attached the confirmation sms received from airtel and screenshot of current running plan details. You may also check the call records of your executive before my recharge regarding this.

                    I want total validity of total 168 days =76 days of old pack +82 days of new pack

                          #Airtel_India

                          Again fed up with airtel service.

                          I have been recharged my number with 1699 yearly plan prior to the completion of my same existing plan 1699. After I did the validity shows only as 365 days without taking my previous balance validity days into the account.

                          Am already aware and done similar recharge for monthly unlimited plans before it ends and it usually sums up the number of days for the validity.

                          As I called customer care, they inform that yearly unlimited pack will deactivate existing plan and start from fresh.

                          Actually I couldn’t not find any related information in my Airtel app stating that monthly packs will add up and yearly pack won’t.

                          Even thou if it is so, they have to give some solution to the existing customer. Simply saying it won’t work and ur money is lost is not the solution or advisable solution. Either u must refund or extend.

                            This email is in regards to my airtel connection[protected]. I was in a advance rental plan rs 2499 for six months.in october my plan was ended and without any notification airtel upgraded me to monthly plan of rs 799. This is not acceptable.
                            I called airtel many times, however i was not provided with any resolution. I have been asked to stick at high cost plan which is not affordable for me at all.

                            I have requested for a disconnection on 28/11/2019. Can you please take strict action against airtel.

                            Can you please support me in getting a resolution on same.

                            Thanks

                                Dear sir,

                                I recharged today 1699, i got validity for one year but due to this i had lost 40 days validity of previous pack.

                                Please credit remains 40 days back to my account.

                                If you are system accepting both payments i should get both validity, otherwise refund my amount 1699 immediately.

                                Thanks

                                They have not mentioned anything in T& C about previous validity expiration. This is cheating

                                  Dear sir,
                                  Sub: please active my number - [protected]

                                  I was already lodge a complaint to consumer court so this is my last request to your give me my number and activated i am unable to pay this amount because i am farmer so this is big amount for me i can't afford this amount i wll pay only 1000/rs.
                                  I am really disappointed with airtel for this as they did not bother to intimate me even through mail. Just to get new customers they cannot just ignore existing customers. I have all my banks connected to me through my airtel number. Even my bank statements go to that number. And also i have some professional connection connected only through that number. As the number is not yet allotted to any person i am sure airtel should be able to give my number back to me. Please help me to get my number back.

                                  Hi,

                                  Sub :my airtel number has been deactivated and please do not allotted to any other person and active again ([protected])

                                  My name moti lal gupta. I have been using my airtel number ([protected]) past more than 10 years but due to unavoidable circumstances i was not using my number from last few months. I had used my number last was in the first week of jan. The in october 2019 i decided to use number regularly and i realized that there was no service on my phone. I immediately called airtel customer care and told them about the issue. They told me that its a you can go for airtel store and i should submit my documents to activate it. I conveyed to them that i have that number past more than 10 years so its not a new number. They did not have answer to it but they told me to just resubmit documents to the nearest airtel store and number would be activated. I went to airtel store and told the issue to the executive. But he told me that the number has been not allotted to any other person but it not in my hald to active this number. I was disappointed and asked then how could they do so.. I then tried calling that number to check who has been allotted with my number. Luckily the number was still out of service, so i called customer care again and told them that it looks like number is still not been allotted so i would wanted my number back and i am ready to submit all documents. So they told then i can go to the airtel store and submit all documents and request for a duplicate sim. But when i went to the airtel store the executive told me that number is in idle state so he cant help it.

                                  I am really disappointed with airtel for this as they did not bother to intimate me even through mail. Just to get new customers they cannot just ignore existing customers. I have all my banks connected to me through my airtel number. Even my bank statements go to that number. And also i have some professional connection connected only through that number. As the number is not yet allotted to any person i am sure airtel should be able to give my number back to me. Please help me to get my number back.

                                        I was a user of tata docomo when it transferred to airtel i have subscribed to airtel once i recharge in last months for unlimited plans but i didn't get internet connection for the half of the months. The day before yesterday i paid recharge plan of 199 first with unlimited plan which offered fasttag but they didn't neither recharged on my number not paid my money back. Then, i recharge for another plan of 129. Now it is running smoothly. Now i need my 199 rupees back.
