Hi

I applied for MNP from idea prepaid to airtel prepaid on 1/june 2019.

Thereafter i got a message on my idea sim that on 6 june 2019 at 10pm my number will get ported and after that i need to put the airtel sim into my phone.

Now on both the sims there is no network.
I have been missing important calls.
Please do something about this asap.

I contacted customer care on 198 but they are saying that don't have any information.

My number : [protected]
Name on which number is registered : Aditya Verma
Alternate Contact number: [protected]

Thanks
Aditya

          Since last 10 years I am using this AirTel SIM and at the time of purchase of this SIM I have submitted my voter ID card and my photo but recently I found that my SIM is registered in the name of some other person. I have sent emails to the AirTel authorities and visited the Malakpet AirTel outlet requesting to rectify their mistake but in vain. The irresponsible AirTel authorities are saying that they don't know how is responsible for this mistake and telling me that only solution is I change my prepaid plan to postpaid plan but I don't need postpaid plan. Kindly do the needful.

              My old sim was broken and i asked for the replacement and was given a new sim and told it would get activated within 2hrs but it has been more than 1week not yet activated and that sim on the phone is displaying the error as not registered on network.I was not able to contact to the customer care to raise the complaint and check the status of the sim. Please respond quick as most of my banking is linked over to the sim.

                          Dear sir/Madam

                          I am reaching out to you regarding my mobile services (service provider – Airtel). My mobile number is [protected]. My mother’s number is linked with my number under family plan. Airtel generated the bill for the month of April which was a shock of my life. I received a total bill of around Rs 5, 200 out of which around Rs 3, 800 was charged for SMS at Rs 5 per sms. Airtel is claiming that we sent around 789 smses.

                          I would like to inform you that we have not sent any messages and sending so many messages within few days is impossible. Especially when there are likes of watsapps and other message services. All these charges are levied on my mother’s mobile number when she was in Jammu. She is not very comfortable sending text messages so there is no way she will send 789 odd text messages. I also reached out to airtel multiple times but every time they tell that these are valid charges. I am forwarding one of the emails below.

                          I request you to kindly look into this matter. I have been paying my bills regularly but in this case I have not paid this bill yet. It would be great if you ask Airtel to deeply investigate into the matter and resolve it as soon as possible.

                          Thanks and Regards
                          Avni Singh

                              I am sankar.
                              I have moved from BSNL to airtel network, post activation(30/5/2019) my data is not working. i went to airtel showroom(Iyyappanthangal, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600056) and they give a new sim card. After few days the new one is not activated, again i visit to the store, they told me to wait for one more day. Again i went, they gave one more new sim card. I got a message from airtel, sim change is in progress(05/062019). But til now this is not yet activated.
                              Showroom peoples are not picking the call.
                              This is very very worst service from you end. Highly disappointed. Kindly help me to move to another good network ASAP.

                                    Address: Flat no 603 GH 103 Sector 20, Panchkula, Haryana, 134116

                                    I write below mail to Airtel customer care mail id and launch a customer complaint on 121

                                    I own a plan of 299 that includes a data benefit of 20GB per month as per the plan and I am using this plan from last more than a month and the total data provided by Airtel to me is only 15GB approx which is supposed to be 30GB approx as per the plan.

                                    I have already complaint to 121 on 02.06.2019 but still not received any resolution, Yesterday also I called your not able to search my complaint, kindly look into matter on priority else I have to switch to other operator, if you provide me such downgraded services and also go in the consumer court for fake promises with the customer.

                                    My no. is [protected]

                                      Hi All,

                                      This is my review comment on Airtel.

                                      Airtel is a big fraud, bad, junk, faltu, zero company. I have been using airtel number more then 365 days +.initially taken the number prepaid & then converted to postpaid. I have been raising the complain for network issue from the starting to till now but those people unable to solve it. as they are non technical junk fellows. don't understand the problem just as a train taking like ###. only for this network issue in my bucket till now 250gb data pending.

                                      when i asked it is not possible for you to solve my case please bucket data convert to cash and return me bc's as per your commitment you have not severed me properly in my taken plan. Raised a lot and lot complain but they have been closed all the ticket without consult with customer. they are doing monopoly and junk management. really faltu company junk service junk knowledge people. they really don't know which company they are working??? what they can do what they can't do??? they don't know what is the potential of them :) what competency they have :)

                                      what they are doing? what they are:)

                                      They are not replying the mail intentionally...and call back you intentionally...disconnect service intentionally without confirm from customer...they are talking customer as a time pass...ANY TIME CALL ON hold...taking 1 hr just like ### work...really they are not doing anything they are time pass mind...with time passing customer...

                                      when you are taking with cc after that also they are not raising the ticket...completely monopoly fraud always telling lie with customer...really junk people with junk organization...

                                      junk people with junk process with junk management...

                                      they are not giving any chance to customer that he can do the MNP to some others...just like a gunda or daku company company...

                                      741183xxxx mobile number post paid number.

                                      NOTE : simple fundamental thing they don't know taking money from customer, but customer is compromising service from airtel. 1 year i have been compromising so that's why now my pending data is 250gb. this data is present in airtel tank in my name. due to network issue i am unable to use...junk people they don't understand the scenario also...murkha people...

                                      they don't understand anything no technology what is 2g, 3g, 4g, volte nothing...just time pass with customer...talking like a sales & marketing...value less people ...CUSTOMER CARE & supervisor & their supervisor also...all are junk vertical with junk knowledge...applet also junk...

                                      thanks,
                                      regards
