Hi,
I have an unlimited data plan and i was charged by airtel. On calling the customer care, i was told that special numbers are chargeable. What is interesting is that on calling special numbers the call rate is thrice that of a normal call. My issue was left unresolved. Lately, it has become a trend with airtel to charge customers unnecessarily.

    My no is [protected]. Internet is not working in area h. No.106, sector 21a chandigarh outdoor aswell. I faced similar problem in june 2019, and was resolved. Now again same issue. Airtel (121 as well. As appellate) are not even registering the complaint saying my complaint was resolved in june. I am constantly writting mails since 22.09.19 but stereotype response is being sent.. Matter being attended on top priority, but neither complaint no is communucated, nor time line
    For resolution provided. No one has visited to check for redolution.. I may clarify, signal strenght is good and calling in volte is ok.

        I am using airtel from a very long time and i really like the service but i started facing a problem from few months. I use unlimited packs so i recharge once in 3 months. By the time the pack's validity is getting expired i'm getting texts saying (Recharge before the end date or else 23rs will be deducted). I dint not like this.. Why will you deduct if i dont recharge. For more clarification i contacted customer care.. They gave me a code.. To stop auto deduction but that is not working.

          I am an Airtel customer since 2012 and I switched from prepaid to postpaid in 2016, before moving abroad. From 2016 till 2019/July the international roaming bill and the basic plan bill remained same, however, since Aug/2019 the bill amount has been suddenly increased approximately three times the original amount. I have analyzed the bill and it says the charges are for internet usage, while i have not switched the mobile data services from July/2019. Furthermore, I have been trying to contact Airtel customer care for NRI's and there is no response from the company.

                      I have properly recharged the airtel dish t v connection but it is not showing many a channel and showing only airtel commercial channel from nearly 15days. It is showing wrong view card. It is second time when l faced such a inhuman technical problem some months before l have faced same problem and l wasted some money for it. This problem emerge from the service provider and can be solved by repeated "refreshing". Please get solved it as soon as possible. I could not see my tv shows since 15 days when i have full charged connection so in this way l have wasted a lot of money for it. Please get it solved sooner.

                        The airtel store tried to activate my sim card and due to backend errors they could not activate my sim card for 2 days. And the issue is not yet resloved. I lost my business for 2 days and i definitely wanna sue airtel for this.
                        I tried activating esim and that failed in the first case from airtel technical side and then the physical sim card is not activating

                              Had recently ported my number from bsnl to airtel and had registered online. The delivery executive had taken the money for the first recharge, even the airtel executive told the same.
                              But now he didn't recharge and is not picking up our call. And now the customer care executive say it's not their responsibility. Please resolve this as we are scammed rs. 495.

                                      I changed my residence recently. Airtel company approached me through miss. Preeti telephone no. [protected] (Trinity enterprises) and requested me that airtel will provide me broadband connection and requested me not to approach any other service provider. The first call was received on 17.08.2019 and after that they have been approaching me time and again. Finally i called them to my place 21.09.2019 and their representative took my kyc documents (Copy of andhra, copy of pan, one photograph and a duly signed form). He also took a cheque for rs.500.00 as installation charges from me. This cheque has been paid to bharti airtel through clearing on 27.09.2019. But till date they did not install the broadband and when i am calling on the said phone no body picks up the call.

                                        Upon repeated request and complaints to the airtel office located in howrah to mr. Sureh tiwari his contact number being +91 9804*2 he has kept evading calls and has been forcing to pay the charges without any explanation of any sort.
