Address: Airte, 600005

I have been a postpaid customer of airtel for over a decade. I always have an official number with international roaming and a personal number in which international number was never activated.
Last month when i went to usa, the international roaming as per new airtel policy is automatically activated, and i have been levied 648 rupees day pack on every day - as there were some marketing calls that came in or marketing sms

I have verified from airtel care that there is no international roaming request activation from me via internet or phone or service request. Airtel claims these are activated by default and it is my problem not to remove the sim.

This is ridiculous

    My sim got deactivated without prior info. My sim number [protected]. Its last recharge was august 25th 2019. Everymonth i am making recharge and sim was also in use. But with out any info they simply deactivated my sim. Customer care or the airtel store, no one is giving proper info or supporting us. Please help me in reactivating my sim. And kindly take necessary action for not getting repeated. Kindly help in reactivation of sim asap

      Hi, i have been with airtel for the last 12 to 14 years and my number is[protected]. I have been facing severe call drops and data issues eschpeially at home and enrage my office. I have many incidences of important business calls dropped. I have raised multiple complaints with 121 and all they have to say is there is a new tower coming up and the airtel app which has a link to check speed has been showing a new tower coming up soon near my residence for the last over a year. I have a family plan of 1599 and i am responsible to make payments.in my recent complaint on the above issue i have categorically mentioned that am not willing to make payment till the issue is resolved and the issue still persists. Airtel is harassing my kid and my father who are part of the family plan with constant automated calls for payments which they are not responsible as i am the primary account holder for the plan. This is harassment of my kid who is 12 years old and he keeps asking my pappa why can't you make the payment and do you have money. This is ridiculous that airtel can fall so cheap in the competition to just survive. I wish either the get their services to the level that i have always known them for or just closed down.

        I upgraded to airtel internet tv set top box and paid 2249 for the same. Within one month the company launched xstream set top box at 2249. When i asked them to upgrade they are asking me to pay 2249 again to upgrade.
        They intentionally sold me an old technology and now asking me to pay the same price again for upgrade within one month which is an absolute fraud with customers.

            I recharged for international roaming pack on an airtel number for rs. 3599 for spain on 8/09/2019. But shockingly, there was no airtel network in spain. I called the customer care multiple times to know the issue as there was no use of the pack untill and unless, there is a network. After, trying every possible setting changes as instructed by the customer care representatives, they later told that the network would be named as "orange (Amena)" and my sister should try connecting that. Still in vain, as there was no such network named "orange (Amena)" as told by them. There were other different networks starting with orange name but all were forbidden (Screenshot provided). I have kept reaching out to them but did not get positive response from the. The user even changed the phone to check the network connection but all in vain. There is no airtel network working at all in spain and they kept lying to us to extort money. There is no airtel network working there. We asked before the recharge but they lied to us about the network. I want all my money to be returned immediately as they have fooled us but they are refusing the refund.
            So, i request you to kindly look into the matter and do the needful.

              I have raised three priority based complaints for non-working of data services on my Airtel SIM, yet the problem is persisting.
              I have tried everything possible, from changing handset to raising complaints, nothing worked out.
              Fake commitments have been given by customer care team time and again.

                Hi,
                I have been using airtel postpaid for more than 5 years with the corporate plan, i have faced many issues due to internet speeds and others but i was with airtel.

                Recently i have seen data speeds have come down, at the same time pre-paid offers and data speeds were much better, so i have decided to move to prepaid.

                I have visited airtel 4g store in brookfield and applied for porting 2 of my numbers to prepaid.

                This was supposed to be a 3-4 hours procedure, but it is more than 4 days now i am not able to recharge either online or in-store.

                As this is month starting we have many obligations like paying rents emis and others without phone we can't do any of these on time.

                I am requesting you guys to please help me out in this regard, enable my number so that i can re-charge and start using it again.

                  I had requested to port my number to airtel on[protected] which was successfully ported on[protected] at 22:00. But i am unable to activate my sim through airtel activation number 59059. When contacted to customer care they replied it is a 7 working day activation process. Thus i have to wait next 2 days without any network as my previous provider has deactivated my sim.

                          I did the recharge for 299 through airtel app but i didn't receive my prime subscription and airtel tv premium features.
                          Recharge made on 10 september, 2019
                          I want the refund as their representatives are saying you have made the payment through 3rd party app what?? Where are those t& c #. I need my refund.
                          Even the airtel tv app is not working on airtel network. Pathetic services.

                              When somebody try to make a call to me it is diverted to someone else. This is happening from last week.
                              Since last month im having connectivity issues. I repeatedly have a mismatch error. And i need to call multiple times to get it rectified. It is becoming very annoying and almost impossible to use airtel. If this goes on i will have no choice but to switch to another network.
                              I want to know my last six months all call details of my airtel mobile no. regarding this there is no information is available on my airtel account after recharge with unlimited pack i want to know my account call details like jio provides.
                              Thanks

                                I got international roaming pack recharged for rs. 3599 for Spain on an airtel number. But shockingly, there was no network at in Spain. I called the customer care multiple times to know the issue as there was no use to pack untill and unless, there is a network. After, trying every possible setting as instructed by them, they later told that the network would be named as orange(amena). Still in vain, as there was no such network named as told by them. There were other different networks starting with orange name but all were FORBIDDEN(screenshot provided). The user even changed the phone but all in vain. I want all my money to be returned immediately as they have fooled us. There is no airtel network working in Spain.

                                      Last 1.5 years before i complain about airtel voice and data very low signal also very low but till date very very worst services from airtel postpaid in t nagar 600017 in chennai tamilnadu. I wasted my cost last 1.5 years of spent for airtel postpaid bill per month 649+gst 18% = 765.82 x 15 months are rs. 11, 487.30/ —

                                      Every time of complaint about this airtel network data issues in customer care, simply said that already given rs.100 discount for billing (Monthly bill amount: 649+18% gst = 765.82 ) but every often asking expected only full service not waiver or discount, but without data services for us every day to day very worst data usage in metro city of chennai tamilnadu.

                                      But i need only full voice and data 4g services but till date not provides so last more than 1-year cheating and promising false information, we will rectify airtel network issues in my location and 2 times network team visited not rectify simply only shadow signal not data or voice signal strength. So till date cheating customer bill amount monthly by monthly without services from airtel no.1 open network of cheating services.

                                      So need 50% amount refund for last 1 year due to very worst airtel voice & data of 1-year cheating and promising false information and till now not possible rectify voice and data issues for me. Lose business due to the very worst airtel services from last 16 months...

                                        2 months ago i buy a airtel sim card, i had no problem in any one facility. But from last 2 week i got a problem with sms, internet, incoming and outgoing calls i mean all the facility. I tried to call customer num. I talk with them, they told me that in your area site is being under construction. There are three towers in our area.-vyara dist tapi. These is all indoor problem. Even one signal isn't come. If there are theree towers atleast incoming and outgoing calls should work.
