2 days ago i added money on airtel thanks or airtel app through my bank account to recharge my airtel sim so added 448 in airtel wallet then i saw everytime i use to do a recharge it always says a error message and declined the request so i thought airtel cant do this thing so let me bring back my money to my bank account but failed again then tried to tranfer to someone's else account but again failed... Although its not that much money but i cant recharge and i cant use that money anywhere else what should i do... Airtel sucks the most in network and now in customer care too... How can they be so careless... Waiting till i get the money and i will choose any other operator... Really wanna throw out some bad words from my heart😠😠

    I have recharged my mobile number[prepaid] for rs.35 and rs.65 on two different instances from my bank account[netbanking] via google pay app. The amount got deducted, but the recharge wasn't successful twice. The transaction was complete and the deducted amount is visible in the transaction history as well. Something like this never happened when i recharged my account in a recharge center via cash.

    Regards,
    Veleik.

          My airtel number is [protected] and i am prepaid subscriber. I had data balance of around 900md till 9pm. I gone thru airtel app for some time which i am doing for the past 3 months. When i came back to home page, i noticed there is 0 mb data balance. I do not understand how my data has gone.

          I am requesting airtel customer care to look into this incident. I have been airtel customer from 2004.

                My father 70 year old is trying to get his sim swapped from airtel bangalore store (100ft) from four days. All his attempts are not successfully completed. Today when asked why its not done, the store manager has told the problem is with my dad side with alternate number. He asked what needs to be done from his side and can airtel help since he doent know who put the alternate number, the replies are arrogant and the manager even told go to ceo i dont care. Is this the way airtel management works. Harrasment for customers and total waste of time. My dad is really sick and tired of airtel

                  I have ported my number to airtel {biggest mistake :- (} on 13th october since the activation i was facing poor coverage and quality issue only one network bar showing in my phone and most of the time it shows no network (Zero bar) if i change my position then again it shows h network or 3g network but again no data and voice services are getting through with that networks it was issue identified at my home.
                  Now coming to my office network coverage part which is a well known and posh area in pune here also facing the same issue please refer to the attached airtel open network coverage report.

                  For home poor coverage issue i have logged the complaint on 13th oct same day after the sim activation as per customer care issue will be resolved in 4 business days again i tried to contact them they raise another ticket without solving the first ticket and it is more than 15 days now i am facing the same issue each time whenever i called to airtel cc they said our network team is working on your issue it will take some time to resolve, i am the airtel postpaid customer will they wave off the charges till the issue got resolved???

                  It was the biggest mistake i port my number to airtel, will never ever suggest anyone choose airtel pathetic service.

                    As per my request, airtel had deactivated my blackberry bb ul 299 plan wef 27/10/2019, adnd continued with the airtel family 299 corp plan

                    To my disappointment and in spite of making several requests thru email, my blackberry mobile phone does not have access/signal of airtel internet an due to which i am unable to send or receive any emails.

                    On emergency basis, i have to use my blackberry phone for emails only thru a wifi, whereas i should have been able to use the airtel internet directly.

                    I have requested airtel to please resolve the issue at earliest or else i have to discontinue with their services completely and also withhold their future monthly bills from payment.

                      The message from paytm was :• airtel has confirmed the success of your order [protected] for the recharge of mobile number [protected] • we're sorry but we'll not be able to reverse the transaction as the top-up/balance/recharge benefits have already been delivered • if you still want to cancel, please reach out to airtel's customer support directly, mentioning: 1. Operator reference number: [protected] 2. Mobile number: [protected]
                      Eventhough airtel has received the funds, now their customer care cell tells me they cant refund the money.. Nor they are giving me the credits.

                          I am a Bharti Airtel Consumer and In My Locality no internet coverage infact in my Family have 3 Sims of Airtel in starting about 2017 going very well but in Nowadays no network coverage and poor Internet he claiming India's fastest 4G network but reality is Very poor network 2G network not run as well, It's Very Upsetting me Airtel Name is enough for service we aspect He give us services very Good Quality but Sir if another we talk about digitalisation it's Very poor in my Village.
                          My name is Ankit Singh.
                          Village - Kalyanpur Madhubani,

                          Airtel customer care we try to contact and discuss our problems but he gives very waste ideas like set APN settings, Manually network found any other telecom network to set.
                          If network not available so how can do this Bharti Airtel worst service provider in India.

                            There is a mismatch between dob in my number and proof. I contacted airtel service center to resolve this issue and they are saying it costs rs. 500 to change. The mistake is on the part of airtel and they are asking me to pay for this. Before some days i linked my mobile number with aadhar. And during that time they didn't find out thar that there was mismatch and now they are charging me for this.. Worst customer service by airtel.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                            I have applied for port my sim from Idea in to Airtel on 16th October. My old connection was goes out. But I didn't get the signal of Airtel connection yet. I tried to call to 59059 many times. Unfortunately I couldn't. Is there any alternatives ? Shall I recharge ?

                            Regards.
                            Dear sir, not reflecting after recharge to my prepaid mobile number [protected]. Detected from Bank. Please verify and feedback please
                            I am using airtel number [protected]. I am not receiving the calls from many of the airtel numbers. i complained the same to airtel many times. Not resolving the issue. They raised a complaint but no resolution yet.

                                  The broadband connection got disconnected 4 times in the last 30 days. The restoration period was 1 to 5 days.
                                  My broad band connection[protected]_mh (Dsl) getting disconnected frequently, almost alternate day and restoration takes long time.
                                  It seems that the problem is beyond control of airtel tech team.
                                  Due to unreliable service, i want to discontinue the airtel broadband connection.
                                  I have paid 6 month charges in advance.

                                  I have been facing dismal network quality in my Airtel SIM. The network is highly inconsistent and doesn't even give internet speed close enough to 4g. I have recharged a month back and it's been the same till now and the network fails all of a sudden. Disappointed with the service provided and there is no improvement.

                                    I am using the number [protected] since past 8 years and now since i had to be abroad for some time and i had no good reception there, i did not use it for 4 months and now when i tried to reactivate it, the customer care said that my number has been reassigned to someone else. It's unfair to treat a customer this way regardless of what the rules say. I want my number back since i have linked all my banking accounts to it. Strangely enough, there was not a single call from the customer care or any warnings via texts. Please help
