[protected] with bob, mylapo, an amount of rs. 600- was paid online to airtell money. Amount debited in bank a/c, and is shown in statement also.

    I had a really bad experience with one of executive at bharti airtel customer care. Recently i've been facing a lot of problems with services of aritel. Call drops, inablility to connect calls at single go, internet problems. Then i called an executive to resolve my problem. Instead of listening to what i wanted to say, she started to convince me that it was ok, that its normal because of large number o[censored]sers and they are installing new towers, so its going to get better. So instead of giving a real, tidy resolution, she tried to sell me her excuse. I wanted to connect that damn call so badly, i told her ok that resolved my problem. No thankyou, no nothing from her and then i said thankyou and she said ok.. Disconnected that call real fast.

      Hello sir/madam,
      This is nitin shelke, a customer of airtel from more than 3 years of both mobile and dth service. From 5th of october 2019 i am complaining about the unavailability of network to customer care executive and to nodal officer. No action has been taken from service provider till the date neither they have tried to resolve the issue.
      When i customer care executive they only apologize gives false promises to resolve the issue.

      I being consumer needs to call after every 72 hours to get the follow up of the complaint. This is really getting me exhausted and frustrated.
      Because all i was asking for 2g network simply to call and send a text message.
      I request you to please do the needful.

        Address: Kolkata, West Bengal, 700059

        I am writing on behalf of my mother suman mawandia her sim got damaged
        And we visit our nearest airtel store at joramandir, kolkata. We
        Asked for reissue of sim and the executive after completing the
        Formality reissued the sim.
        After two days when its not started we can visit the store and she
        Informed me the reason husband father name mismatch so its got
        Rejected. She informed me the document which have father husband name
        K mawandia is required because earlier it was as per the record k
        Mawandia is available.
        I have insist her that its is m. K mawandia her husband name while
        Issuing earlier the executive who has issued the sim has instead of
        M
        . K mawandia has taken k mawandia.

        I am continuing following up with them regular visit to store not
        Possible for my mother we are trying to call the store more than 60
        Time in a day from our mobile to know the status but we find
        Difficult. Since no body taking calls its not a complaint against any
        Body. My issue is to resolve my query and resume the services of my
        Mother mobile no [protected]..

        I appreciate your early action in this regards. Kindly resolve the
        Issue there is not a single mistake from my side being a valued
        Customer its like punishment for me.

              I have activated international package of rs 3999 for 10 days to south africa. But there was no network and i couldn’t use this service after two days. I had called customer care and even lodged a complaint against it and tried my best to use the service but unfortunately no network
              Since i couldn’t used your service kindly waive off my amount of rs 3999 before you charge interest which is due today
              I had even called customer care they take 15 mins to transfer the call and later on the call gets disconnected
              I don’t understand why do you don’t want to get the solution or discuss bout it

                I am using airtel broadband from 2014. Currently using 6+2 months plan which should end in january 2020. But airtel send me a new bill in the month of november itself for rs.5699.81. When called to customer care, it is clearly told me that profile says it is 6+2, there may a mistake in bill generation and forwarded request to billing department. Billing department closed the request without solving and not even contacting me. One executive called me and raised disconnection request. It is totally frustrating and mental stress for me because of this.

                  I have been trying to call[protected] which is a number to my medical insurance company. It never ever gets connected - courtesy airtel. There is an ivr that keeps saying its a chargeable number. Please visit www.airtel.in for the charges. When i visit the page, i don't see anything. When i call the airtel customer care, they give very lame response - "it may be a network problem. Restart your phone. The issue will be resolved in 4 days". Here is the complaint number i received - is[protected].

                  Does airtel think we customers are fools that we buy into such weird responses? What's the problem with airtel? Why do they have to disconnect the call to this number? I have heard the ivr saying that it's chargeable which is acceptable to me coz i need to make an urgent call but then airtel decides who i should talk to - right?

                  Can airtel please work in improving services rather creating a horrible experience for a loyal customer?

                  And by the way, the customer care supervisors don't want to talk and find all the reasons to escape... Not expected from Airtel who has been a market player for a while now.

                    I have brought the new airtel broadband connection with platinum plan.

                    As per the terms i was suppose to get amazon prime for 1 year and zee5 premiums for 1 year as well.

                    But after claiming within a month i got mail saying prime account is cancelled, when contacted customer care they are saying account is deactivated, which i didnt do.

                    When further escalated to supervisor he is saying that we need to register amazon prime with new phone number and new emailid. Not sure if we buy new broadband we new buy new sim to activate the offer? Cant be used with existing phone and email id?

                    Similar issue with zee5 got only for 1 month. Can this be resolved.

                      Sir,
                      We, about 150 people who have been the permanent users of airtel for the last 7 years and residing in the sarai kale khan area of delhi. We have been associated with airtel dth for the last 6-7 years and we are taking airtel 4g plan for almost 2 years.

                      In this regard, we have to inform you that the services of airtel in our area are constantly deteriorating whether it is ‘airtel dth’ or ‘airtel 4g’.

                      Since, neither your services are good nor any help is made by your customer care number, which takes about 7-10 minutes to talk to your customer care executives, many o[censored]s have switched to other dth service provider viz. Tata sky, etc.

                      So, we hereby inform you that if you would not improve your 4g services in our area within 48 hours, then we will have to port our mobile numbers, well before the next date of recharge, to other service providers whose services are better in our area, like reliance jio, through ‘mobile number portability’.

                      Regards,

                        I have contacting costumer care of Airtel regarding frequent disconnection and slow speed of internet in my area. They act genuine and resolve the problem for 2-3 hours and then again the status is the same. It’s been going for 2-3 months now and I am fed up with Airtel in every way possible. Even their Mobile connections sucks. They cost me a very important mail because of their internet services. Airtel sucks in every way possible.

                            I work in eon free zone office in kharadi, pune. Though the network show as 4g but it is not getting connected, not loading any site or playing youtube videos.

                            Internet requirement is very necessary as i need to do quite a work from office only like bill payment or any kind of transfer. And if net does not work it is really quite disappointing

                            Please see i[censored] can help on this, as my 8-9 hrs went in office and without internet on phone it is really frustrating.

                              In our family we have three airtel connection for three handset. The mobile numbers are [protected], [protected] [protected]. It is really
                              Irritating that three days before the end
                              Of the validity period you start to send sms. We receive at least 10 to 15 sms
                              Per day. Even at the time of call a voice
                              Message is given. We are well aware that if we do not recharge within the due date we will not be able to call anyone and it is absolutely our concern
                              To run our connection smoothly.
                              So immediately stop sending company sms to the above mentioned numbers
                              And also stop voice message regarding the recharge. If you do not adhere to this request it will be handed in the legal forum.

                                        Hi
                                        I have been a customer of airtel since last six years. I have two numbers operated under postpaid. One is 98922xxxxx which is my regular number. Another one is 8971xxxxx for which i had requested a disconnection in the month of july. The disconnection team insisted even after my initial denials, that we can convert the number to prepaid directly from here. So, i said ok. However, there was no update even after two three week. When i finally queried they say said that we cant do anything from here, you have to visit the airtel store. Why didn't they say this to me in the first instance itself. I had insisted the number to be disconnected and they kept on insisting that we will convert the number to prepaid from backend. First instance of cheating.
                                        Next, as i am a working professional and hardly get any time. When i visited the airtel store in september, i received another surprise. The guy said that today we have some network outage so we cannot convert today. Again a case of fraud. I do-not get the time to visit the airtel customer centre on a daily basis.
                                        I have been repeatedly calling airtel to disconnect my number and also stop billing the number. However, repeatedly bills are getting generated with late fees levied. Also, i have requested your executive to reverse the entire billing amount levied from the date of my disconnection request. I have not been using this number. Airtel is using cheap tricks just to keep billing customers.
                                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
