    I visited Airtel office requesting them to unblock my lost+blocked sim. They charged me rs.300 to recharge and activate and gave me a new sim. They also collected my pan card and took my picture. It has been 7days and it is still not working. I have visited the Airtel office thrice till now. They keep sending me back saying it will start working in 4hrs. The employees are rude and incompetent. I need my rs.300 back at the least and want Airtel to compensate for my troubles. I am taking my business elsewhere.

    I was also charged rs.50 for the new sim. I was son cal with Airtel customer care for two hours and they were of absolutely no help at all. They kept saying I should go back to Airtel office to resubmit my documents whereas I have already given all the original documents and pictures that was requested. Such an unprofessional business should not exist. These are the businesses frustrating the citizens out of this country

      Despite not using their service, Airtel has been fraudulently deducting my balance on constant basis. Have been following up with them but they have been least bothered even to reply back to my mails.

                        Hello, I have registered a complaint for Airtel broadband internet connection disconnect on 26th December, 2022, 1:19PM. Ticket ID: [protected]. Airtel engineer visited my place and identified the problem that Broadband main cable has been cut off outside, and it has been communicated to the concern team to rectify the issue on the same day. But there is no team visited on 26th dec to fix that. I also informed the same to the local Airtel team member (Rajesh) on the next day morning (27th dec 2022), he also promised this issue will be solved soon. I was waiting for the entire day but no response from the Airtel side. Till today (28th dec 2022), I have connected with Airtel customer care more than 6 times and talked with four 1st supervisors, I am getting the same reply that it has escalated as high priority. Till now no resolution provided. I am facing this internet problem for 3 days. I already paid for 3 months. I am very much disappointed with the service provided by Airtel. As I am working from home, and in high priority projects for a private company, I couldn't work for 3 days due to this issue. Very worst service from Airtel broadband. I wanted to bring this into this forum to get a quick resolution. Or else I wanted to disconnect Airtel Xtreme Fiber connection and claiming my remaining payment which I already paid for the next 2 months. Please do the needful. Thanks.

                            I took airtel xstream connection in 27 december 2022 at house no. 1991, partap colony, kharkhoda, Sonipat. Before and at the time of installation I was told by the representatives that the range of the router upto 4th floor house but after installation I am unable to connect my device on 1st floor . However no such service has been given. Customer care team is least helpful. Either they do not receive the call. Local representative was extremely arrogant when contacted on phone and no one is ready to own any responsibility. I am no more interested in availing such services and neither I will recommend this service to anyone.

                                    Hi there!

                                    This is to inform that I processed a mobile recharge of Rs.719/- on 10.11.2012. But due to some technical error from Airtel side it was not processed and got failed.

                                    As per notification message from airtel that refund was to be processed with 7 to 10 days. But it has been more than one month since this incident happened and no action has been taken yet.

                                    Therefore, I request you to please get the refund processed for the aforementioned matter.

                                    Mobile no. [protected]

                                    Thanks

                                      They have asked to provide the documents on 21st December 2022 and same has been activated with in 24 hours.
                                      again they have disconnected the service and asking to buy new sim also not paying back my 1 year plan money.
                                      just to eat customer money they planning new new technique.
                                      they are harassing me from last 1 week and i have fall in to big loss and now need to change every where that no as its my registered mobile no.
                                      since Airtel is responsible to cover all my loss with compensation and they have to pay the penalty for harassment.
                                      after 100 e mails they will reply to visit store and store will not have any information since they have dependency on customer support or back end support.
                                      really worst service provider.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                      its been a day there is no reply from Airtel.
                                      if we Visit Store they says they have submitted Successfully but Airtel updated stating not received documents. but once document submitted service provided and again after 6 days you started new drama. first up all its been a week i m asking why do you need documents after 7 to 8 years.
                                      Due to Airtel irresponsible i have fall in to loss and those e mails has been shared. now i need Airtel to give my loss as well compensation for troubling a women from a week. seriously you are harassing me so much left with leaving my life. I deserve a compensation with apology from Airtel.
                                      they want to eat customer money by disconnecting service and remain plan amount and again to get that no customer will pay money so over all they are just cheating.
                                      Begging is more respectful than robbery .
                                      No one is Working in Airtel and they are knowing they have messed up and unnecessarily disconnect the service to get just to eat my 1 year plan money.
                                      such a Fraud service provider.
                                      I need my loss amount and your irresponsible behavior roaming there here my time has wasted and leaving my i should roam what Airtel think every one make house next to Airtel store to visit daily?
                                      or you have given me the flat next to Store to daily will visit and request 100 email to reply and provide the service which you disconnected just to eat customer money.
                                      So cheap behavior. i need all My loss and trouble which faced due to Airtel to be paid penalty for the same.
                                      The delay you make that much penalty to be added along with my loss amount. screenshot has been shared already what loss i have gone through.

                                        I have a airtel phone number for which I made recharge of Rs. 3359 for a year. The recharge was made on 8th December 2022. The sim got deactivated on 16th December 2022.
                                        I went to nearby airtel store(FC road, Pune). The sim was purchased by my father- who expired last year due to covid. My younger brother was using this number. We were not aware of this till sim got deactivated. The airtel store people informed us your number belongs to "Mumbai circle". Visit your home location and they will give you your money back with transfer of sim ownership.

                                        I made a visit to Mumbai airtel store for the change, they informed me that they can only give me Rs. 600 discount if I am ready to convert the prepaid to postpaid.

                                        Getting the number started was urget as it is associated with many bank accounts, Adhar cards, study groups. I took the deal for the time being and I have been following up with them for my remaining refund of RS. 2759.

                                        They have refused the give me my money point blank. I have even informed them that I have lost my parents and I am taking care of my parents education. This is costing me a lot. Still they are not ready to return my remaining amount

                                        Please help me get this sorted.
