            Address: New Delhi, Delhi, 110015

            I stay in DLF Capital Greens, Shivaji Marg, Delhi-110015. Its a multi Story apartments and I reside in 30th floor. The Airtel phone network here is almost nil and it becomes difficult to communicate. There has been no improvement since last one year. Please look into this matter. We have to rely on Internet calls to communicate with others as it becomes difficult when there is Internet issues. I got to know that towers will be installed and then the issues will be rectified soon, however as I have mentioned that it has been more than one year and I have not seen any improvements, i really seek your help in getting this resolved as soon as possible.

            Thanks n Regards,
            Rinni

                Hi,

                Name - Mahendran
                Father Name - Murugavel
                Mobile - [protected]

                I am trying to activate a duplicate SIM from last Friday and everytime it is getting rejected saying DOB and Father name Mismatch
                Whitefield Airtel store tried for 1 day and then asked me to go to Kadugodi Main branch - there they tried and got the same the Error

                According to Kadugodi Branch they cant see my DOB nor they have option to update and asked me to call customer care.

                Spoke to Customer Care they are saying they don't have option to update the DOB and go to Store.

                Went to whitefield branch no help--went to Kadugodi they asked me to send mail to [protected]@in.airtel.com as the SIM is deactive

                After I send mail I got a reply saying mail Id is not matching.

                Again called customer care, He is saying my SIM is active and he cant change the DOB

                Am using this number 2009 ironically none of my details is matching and the details what customer care is seeing and the Store person is seeing also doesn't match.

                Please let me know the process and who is responsible for updating my details. If store person and the customer care cant see my details who has the access and who can give me the exact details/help here.

                  Website: www.airtel.in/prepaid-recharge

                  I have done a recharge of Rs1699/- to mobile number [protected] instead of [protected], as the number I have entered got replaced with auto form fill data in Airtel website. I have emailed the issue to the [protected]@in.airtel.com and they have sent an automatic reply to call 121.I have made a call to customer care and explained about the issue immediately. But I have received a negative response from them. According to their rules they can neither recharge to the number I want, nor refund the amount as both the mobile numbers are totally different. I have done the recharge several times before but this is the first time this kind of mistake has happened and that is not the small amount to ignore. please help me in resolving this issue. I have read online the similar incidents with other networks and they have refunded the amount back. I dont know Why only Airtel network has these kind of rules that are not in favor of customers anytime. Please help me with this.
                  Thank you.

                    Sir,

                    There is constant Signal drop/No Signal/No 4G network in Panduranganagar, Near Bescom Office, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore - 560076 for the past 1 year. We are not able to make or receive any calls. I am not able to make calls standing on my terrace. There has been breakage of voice and calls and some times the calls land to wrong people. I am surprised to know Airtel being a Number one network provider in India is facing these issues.

                    Request the concerned authorities to look into this matter ASAP.

                        Hi Team,

                        I am not sure exactly who is owning the grievances from Airtel.

                        These are my grievances.

                        1) I was continuously misguided over the Airtel call center that my SIM can be activated in spite of I being available in Netherlands and buying in time of 48 hours and 72 hours constantly both by emails and calls.

                        2) I was not informed in no point of time that I would not be able to have my SIM activated which is false. I would also like to inform you that there were always false promises made to me that I would be receiving calls from the Airtel customer care to an abroad number which never happened.

                        3) I spoke with multiple people of which I would like to name a few Vishwa and Sathya Prakash who have premised me of the above and in vain. I wasted a lot of time and some time and efforts also have been wasted because of the mis-communication.

                        Can you please let me know who is accountable for all the miscommunication and wastage in time for me.

                        Also I would also like to mention you the name of MS HindU U who was teaching me of Professionalism which I feel Airtel does not have each of its departments with the issues mentioned below:

                        1) The same person would not be connected to the call each time I call the number [protected]. The people answering the calls are so incompetent that they are not able to transfer the call to the technical department nor they are able to write emails on behalf of [protected]@airtel.com nor they make proper notes in the call I speaks which makes me waste my time to talk to each of them when ever I call them.
                        2) Each time I call the above number I was always promised of services which airtel is incompetence to provide the promised services.

                        I have all the email proofs for which I was misguided.

                        I would like to have my number activated against the requested SIM as pert the request raised.

                        My mobile number to be activated is [protected].

                        Please feel free to contact me on +[protected]

                              Sir,

                              I recharge 200/- rs yest on 17.06.2019. It has not been credited and not added to my account.
                              When i call the customer care executives to know the above details yesterday. They are saying My mobile no . [protected] is migrated to post paid on 15/06/2019. And a request has been give for the migration on 12/06/2019. I was shocked to hear this.

                              I did not give any request to migrate to post paid . It has been done without my knowledge. I immediately asked them to cancel the migration and make my mobile no. back to prepaid. I am using this same mobile for the past 5 years in Pre-Paid.

                              I am deeply saddened / upset to know that your service to the customer is very poor bcoz your executives are saying that it can be changed to prepaid back only after a month.

                              1) I didnt change the plan to post paid
                              2) I didnt make any calls from 12th of June 2019
                              3) All the above has been done without my knowledge. May be you are migrating yourself to the post paid from your backend, i am not sure.
                              4) And finally now my request is to change immediately to PRE-PAID. which has to be in effect right from today.

                              Please take necessary steps immediately to change my plan to Pre-Paid.

                              Thanks

This irritates me to lodge this . if you don't take action I will send email to you within 7 days.

                                      Hello,
                                      This is Puru krishna gupta from Naraingarh, distt ambala ( HR ) region.
                                      From past 4-5 days, i am experiencing poor internet speed as airtel subscriber.
                                      For ur knowledge, my device is redmi note 5 pro ( 4G ) and i have airtel sim on 4G network.
                                      Though the sim network strength is good but speed is in KBs regardless of time ( morning, evening or night).
                                      I have tried switching my sim from slot 1 to 2 but has no effect.
                                      The claim " fastest 4G " doesn't hold.
                                      Kindly do needful in order to provide best for customer .

                                      Thanks.
