Address: 2nd Lane,Ashok Nagar, D.No-5-79-13, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, 522002

I belong to ashok nagar locality in guntur. I'm having trouble with accessing 4g net from almost one week. I brought this to the store notice.. They convinced that the tower around my locality is under upgradation and it will take almost a month to finish the process. Where is the benefit of recharging when you have to wait a whole month, and what about my money?
Now i can't even change my sim to other companies because i purchased the 3month pack just 15 days ago...
Please ensure that the upgradation is completed at short notice.

    Ever since i had the misfortune of recharging my data pack for my airtel number, i can no longer visit any site on the internet without getting redirected to one. Airtel.in. It has become something of a torture, for it has been close to 6-7 hours and it still keeps happening. Happens on both my phone and desktop browsers (Chrome, firefox and opera).

    I have reset all my browsers twice, changed and reset my apn data, cleared...

      I had taken accidental insurance from airtel secure and it was almost a year when my phone fell down from pocket and got damaged. I submitted claim with full detail. I got a call from airtel's representative that my claim got rejected. The reason i was given was that external force is missing and it is not accidental but negligence.

      Under this logic, every accidental damage can come under negligence and company will continue to cheat customers. When no solution was given to me, i terminated all services i was getting from airtel. But this does not stop company to loot customers.

      I urge you to look into this issue and take some severe action to restore faith of people in insurance industry.

        20 months back i bought a new handset from apple and got it insured by airtel secure for two years as per there promises and advertisements. Few months back my phone was damaged and was claimed through airtel secure and got replaced as apple has a policy to replace the phone instead of repair during the warranty period. So i was provided with new imei number and recently my phone got damaged again but the airtel team is not ready to claim my handset saying that imei is different. After the the first claim none of the team has informed me to update the imei so how i’m suppose to know what’s the next step. Now they have closed this case and after my complaint their customer service representative said that this offer was only for one year which was claimed by the company for two as per their websites application and advertisements but they have been charging monthly charge for that. If the service for just one year so how can they charge me for 8 months extra? This is a lie by customer service executive whose phone number is ‭+[protected]‬.
        See i have been with airtel for more than 10 years now to infact my alternate number is also by the same network but this is my first time when i’m experiencing any cheating by the company.
        My points are:
        1. If imei was to be updated then why no one informed me about that and rejected my claim because of this.
        2. Customer service executive lied that the service was for one year but charged monthly subscription charge after one year.

        Complaint reference no is 90624677.
        Current device claim – service request # 4373612
        Previous device claim – service request # 3521128

                    Airtel should be held to answer for misleading the public that it provides as 24 hour service. Yet again when i call the technical help line at 12am to register that my broadband is down yet again, i was met by the usual excuse "sorry ma'am but our server is down so we can't check anything and we can't even register your complaint so we suggest you call back in the morning." honestly why on earth would you pay an employee to sit and answer the phone during these hours when the answer is going to be the standard - we can't help you! Just let him sleep peacefully at home and stop advertising you can help customers around the clock and just be honest about the hours that you are open for service.

                      I recharged my airtel prepaid sim with top up of ruppes 48, which was supposed to give 3 gb of internet, on 6th of july, 2019. The recharge amount had been deducted from my phone pay account but data pack is still not activated. I tried to contact airtel but no response was there from their side. I inquired phone pay and they told that recharge have been done, recharge is shown in airtel app but still 3 gb data is not given to me.

                            Fraudster Airtel,
                            Thanks for cheating and misguiding the customers, I was using corporate customer plan for the number :[protected] in Maharashtra circle. Two weeks back visited the airtel store and confirmed on circle change from Maharashtra to Karnataka. They even checked my airtel app and plan details. All the freebies were active on this number.
                            I asked to retain the 749 plan and asked if all free bees( Netflix, amazon prime …will continue to work?) .
                            The store people confirmed all the offers remain same and can go ahead with MNP . I submitted all the relevant documents as per guidelines and trust.
                            Now the situation is none of the freebies are active on my number and customer is failing to respond(C[protected]) given false commitment.
                            People paying 400Rs on any network are getting all freebies and with 749 payment I get nothing. I visited store 3 times, they say it will take one week -2 weeks. When I called 121, they say I’m not eligible.
                            Fed up hearing your stories daily. Shameful to know this is how you treat you customers with fraudster commitments.
                            Can I get final feedback, you trap customers like this ? or its some gimmick? Or dead trap, I will act based on that.

                                      Hi,
                                      I had a very terrible experience o[censored]sing Airtel postpaid. Say it the Call failures, worst internet speed, contacting customer care, etc.
                                      Even when there was 1.5GB/day data and unlimited calls were available for 3 months at Rs399, I kept using Airtel Postpaid only because I thought I had a privilege or atleast good speed or service. Bills were ranged from 400-600 per month.

                                      I called for complaints atleast once in a month (and I don’t need to tell what a test of patience to have a speak with Airtel Customer Care Executives is) asking/begging them to improve network and other issues. And every time they would say it would be resolved in 3-4 business days. Then I asked them if they cannot provide me good service they don’t have rights to charge me. Still, I kept paying bills for years and finally I had to tell them that, I’m not paying anymore unless there is any improvement in their services. I waited a little and got ported to Jio.

                                      Now, they have got all my services from Jio stopped due to outstanding payment of around 600 (at Airtel before leaving).

                                      I’m feeling very irked and helpless as a customer that I do not have any say in this. I just have to keep my mouth shut and keep paying the bills irrespective of what services I get. Should I not expect atleast minimal services at Rs500/month when the average is Rs399/3 months? How can such companies hold their heads high and torture us?

                                      Do you know what am gonna do? I’M PAYING MY OUTSTANDING BILLS to get my services started in JIO. That’s what I can do as a customer. Things would be different if this was the case in the US or other countries, and no wonder why our country is so ill-fated!!!

                                      And even to pay the outstanding bill, they don’t fail to torture. There isn’t a simple way where I can pay it, I’m still looking for a right link. I’m being forced to pay my bill offline in India’s one of the so called High-Tech companies.
