Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi all,
Its merely been over a month i ported my postpaid cell no. from Vodafone to Airtel, after facing a couple of network/data related issues with Voda & falling for best connectivity as well as unmatched customer experience claims made by Airtel. Since the thread under discussion is not network, so i’ll not pass on any verdict here, moreover, its just been a month i am on their n/w as of now. However, just after paying my first month bill without even having a glimpse at the itemised bill as usual, this morning i was surfing thru my mailbox & just like that i opened up the e-bill delivered to me by Airtel and i was shocked to see that they have charged me around 175 bucks for sending out some intl. sms’s to a UK based phone number[protected]. Just out of curiosity, i googled for that particular UK no. & know what, i landed here. Unfortunately, above instance certainly affirms to the fact that Airtel has been taking its customers on for a ride. Customers like me & i am sure there are thousands out there, won’t even bother looking at the monthly itemized bills, just pay whatever the amount is, are being cheated in masses by an oldest & numerouno Cellular services provider in the country which ranks no.2 in mobile phone subscriber base. Well, to my surprise it was my first bill cycle, i wish they could have been little more patient & played such gimmicks of swelling their share values by silently drilling a hole in the pocket of its valuable customers. Period. Thanks but no thanks Airtel,

Today i. E., (12/07/2019, ist between 1:00 to 1:30). I have visited airtel store for paying phone bill & enquire regarding conversation from postpaid to prepaid located in warangal beside dominos, nit road, hanamkonda.
The executive provided me improper information regarding my post paid connection. When i was enquiring them regarding about the issue. One of the executive (Santosh) interfered and showed worst attitude & rude behaviour towards me!!

Please note, i was using airtel postpaid data card no - [protected] till[protected], i was advised by m/s pinky no - [protected], airtel store at tollygunge, ashok nagar to switch to the 50gb slot, i paid rs 620 till that day charge and closed the old no, ie [protected], and a new number was allotted to me, [protected], i paid rs 600 on[protected] first day of my bill cycle, subsequently on[protected], i paid rs 440/-, receipt no[protected]. On[protected] i paid rs 600-00 receipt no [protected], for my datacard no - [protected].
Today surprisingly, i received a bill from airtel on my old no -[protected] a sum of rs588.7, due to 24th june 2019 payment last date[protected].
I am totally surprised what type of service airtel is providing its customers,

I have submiited a request from postpaid to prepaid in airtel store located in sahara mall gurgaon on 11th july 2019.
I was told by airtel person that only my outgoing will stop and to start that i just need to do one prepaid recharge but network will not go.
Now from last 16 hours i do not have network in my phone and its showing no service.
I have visited airtel store located in sahara mall gurgaon today again but did not got any solution for same.

My airtel dth set top box has stopped working suddenly. I have logged a complain to the airtel via online customer support. An airtel engineer has visited on 10/07/2019 and said that your set top box has gone hang and it would take 10 -15 days to repair/replacement.
My question to airtel is that, when
1. My stb is in a warranty period.
2. I have a recharge on it.
So why you are taking so much time.

I have attaching the required details.

My prepaid mobile number is [protected] and there is an existing pack of Rs 448 which is valid till 30th Aug 2019. Inspite of this, today they have debited Rs 23 for another pack for 28 days without any request from me. So I requested Airtel to cancel that new pack and re credit the amount of Rs 23 immediately but there is no response. Every 28 days they do like this.(debiting my account for new pack while there is an existing pack in force.)

Or if possible I want call his and SMS list of a specific date and I can help you with the day it is Sunday a 7th of October 2018 at 15:04 p.m. if possible I want this list through my email ID and an sms notification on my my mobile number kindly please help me I am looking forward

But with Airtel sim, When on call, Voice of the other person is very unclear, it breaks in between and most of the times, I'm unable to hear anything. Please resolve...

Hi, i am one of the airtel customer. My airtel no: [protected] (My geo location is srk arcade, ft no.105, brindavan colony, bangalore 560029.) i have recharged with rs. 399 plan for 84 days.in which consists o[censored]nlimited talktime validity and a daily quota of 1.4gb 4g data. Right from day 1 i'm not able to use 4g services on my handsets. Even though my handset is 4g compatible. The same i complained to
Airtel customer support team, but its been 40 days still my issue was not taken care of. They simply saying we escalated to network team, as soon as possible they will fix it. But its already went 40 days, still my issue persists.
Airtel customer support team is not considering my issue... They simply seeking time but none is fixing it. Whenever i give a call, they say we are taking inputs and escalating the same to network team. But they are not providing any status regarding my issue. They don't have whether the network team is working on my issue or not.
I have connected multiple times to floor manager... They simply keep on raised tickets on my number. But all of them are in open status. Here is the upic reference no.:ccnor[protected].
Out of 84 days of my plan...40 days i'm out of 4g data services. July 23 my plan will be expire, but still they seeking time to fix it. No one is taking action regarding my issue. I asked them to provide the general manager no, but they haven't provided. So please consider my issue and provide a resolution.

Hi, I have made a request internal relocation of my Airtel Digital TV within the same premises due to some building works done. I have raised a request number[protected] on 8th July 2019, they said my request will be attended and complete in 24 hours time, i waited 24 hours but got no response, called to airtel digital tv Customer care they said before 5pm the work will be done, but no response at all after 5 and 48 hours also.. like this i waited from 8th July 2019 to 11th July 2019. Some times they said due to heavy rains in Mumbai the engineer was unable to take tickets, some time they said the assigned team was not responding so they have to raise a compliant through email and i was asked to wait for another 24 hours of time for their email response from assignee team to get the reply. When i called to customer care one guy name "Prashanth" attended my call and he was very rude to me and said still i need to wait another 24 hours of time, when i asked him if this issue is not resolved in 24 hours of time shall i go to consumer forum to complaint? then he said, wait another 24 hours for resolution otherwise go ahead do whatever you want .. he said like in non polite manner.. was it my mistake to take airtel digital tv to listen all these kinds of no polite words from them?
They said they will refund my money, yes, they will refund the money but should they refund my pain which was taken by me all these 4 days ? all these 4 days i missed my entertainment my child missed her kids channels entertainment? should they refund my all these fun and entertainment?

I need they should be punish so that no one can face this type of pain from airtel digital tv again.
No proper contact for complaints no proper contact person for escalations no proper time to resolve the issues no proper messages no proper response from customer care or higher officials when issue escalations.

Attached are some messages screen shots that i got from airtel custome care when i called to them. They shows how many times i have contacted them and same message i received from them.

so, request you to take this issue as priority and do the needful for me.

Thanks,
Rajendra Gangadhar

Dear team, i have requested on 15-march-19 to disconnect my 6 month plan which i have opted. I got surprise sms and call on may month from airtel your due amount is 599 which was not opted by me. After multiple call with them then they said send one more disconnect request for this as well so i told why i will send this request again which i have not opted.
Final i have request to disconnect this plan as well on 30-may-2019. Still i am getting call from airtel to pay the amount which is not used by me.

Landlone no is [protected]

Now they generating bill every month and till now the bill is rs 1761.47 generated. Kindly help on the same.

Now they are asking from me proof where i have requested the disconnect request. I was every time telling to them give me service request no over sms or email but they didnt send me.

I stay in nallagandla, hyderabad and have a very poor service from airtel since last 1 year. Have raised many complaints but the service still remaina poor. There is never proper call/data signal and i cant even talk for a minute continuously. Still, i am being charged every month 299rs+tax and have been paying it because i did not want to lose the number as it is registered at many places. The carrier has moved me to 299 plan without my confirmation and drastically reduced my free sms facility. Recently, i had to use the service sending some sms and since i am not aware of the changes in plan, i have sent many sms assuming sms service is free. However, i was charged for it. And the charges are very high.

How can airtel change my plan without any confirmation from me and charge me such a way. Also, without any signal and service, how can they charge me montly huge amounts of bill.

I have been calling airtel for around 6 months and still airtel is not increasing speeds, the speed is commonly 0-2 kb, as a result, i started calling airtel when i was preparing for my 12 board exam, and they did not solve the problem, it's been july now and the problem is still not being solved, this time i will port my sim to vodafone and not gonna waste my 250 rs every month
I will advice my friends not to buy airtel sim
