I have joined airtel through porting from idea on 15th jan 2019. At that time the sales repsentative of airtel brief me about the plan which will cost me at 249/ month. However when it comes to billing they charged 399 instead of 249 to me. When i called customer care they said there is no such plan of 249 and we can't help it. When i communicate with the airtel sales executive she respond "sir maine to 249 punch kia tha back hand team se galti hui hai ap store visit karlo main kuch nhi kar sakti" this seems to be very unprofessional to me.

      We are holding 9 postpaid sims of airtel. Last four months, we have not been receiving the bills either by mail or post, giving the total details, inspite of repeated reminders.

      We want to know why is the delay. Because of this delay on the part of airtel, we are forced to pay late payment charges which is not at all acceptable to us.

      Please take corrective action immediately.

          My airtel dth customer id no. Is [protected]. Since 3 months, i am not able to view the channels from my selected package. I have sent emails many times. The customer care executive sometimes calls me when i send complaint mails, but the issue remains the same. And if the customer wants to call back, then the answer is `number does not exist. On 20.05.2019, i selected my a-la-carte package and sent scanned qr code via channel no.998. Before selecting the channels, i had paid online rs.450. But till this date and time, i am not able to view the desired channels and old package is continued. This has happened twice earlier in the month of february and march, this year. There is nobody to listen in airtel pune office also. I received a call from delhi customer care office on 21.05.19. I requested the caller to speak in marathi, which is my language. He said he will arrange for it, till this time nobody has called back yet.

            Address: Old Rajinder Nagar, Near Water Tank, New Delhi, Delhi, 110060

            Dear sir/madam,

            I am facing issues in voice clarity and network issues for making calls and receiving calls for my mobile number [protected] in old rajinder nagar. Sometime it takea too much time to connect call. When i compare the call quality between jio and airtel, jio is far better than airtel.
            Please don't compel me to change my network to jio. Do something as soon as possible.
            Thank you

              I am not able to receive any calls nor incoming messages. Outgoing call facility is working fine. I have complained thrice already. No solution has been provided.

              Called 121 and 128 both, no solution provided and were not able to resolve.

              I am working and this issue is creating huge hindrance in my work.

              Will you be able to fix this issue asap or should i port to another service provider.

                I have mobile connection of airtel company form last 8 yrs. We have network problem in my residing area as per mention below last 2 yrs. I have made several complaints regarding network and internet problems. But no one has try to resolve or attended.
                Only they register complaints and when we take follow calls they try to convince us to give offers in our postpaid bills.
                This has become routine of their work. Please look into matter and resolve my problems regarding internet and network issues of our residing area.

                  My last date to pay the bill is 21st of the month. Last couple of months i have paid the bill through citibank bharat bill pay on 19th of the month.in both cases they reported very conveniently that they have received the amount on 22nd of the month and charged late fee of rs 100 (+gst). When i confronted with their call center they said they will waiver the late charges without providing any explanation as to why they got the money on 22nd when the payment was done on 19th. Instead they said use airtel money as that will be faster. It seems that their systems are either inefficient or malfunctioning because of which these incidences are repeating. As airtel is struggling to keep themselves afloat because of fierce competition they may be banking on gullible customers who might pay this kind of late fee charges without confronting or realizing that they are being cheated. On the same day i paid bills for other two of my connections at vodafone and tata docomo and i got instant acknowledgement that my amount is received by them. I do not what is the problem with airtel when everybody else is able to acknowledge the payment instantly.
                  Can anyone at airtel customer service explain this and ensure that it does not happen again?

                    Airtel is cheating long time customers and even their customer service is justifying the act without any consideration.

                    Sms are sent to unknown numbers without my knowledge through my number. Other customers also have raised the similar isssue.

                    These people are day light robbers to charge 999 every second day without my request for roaming. They also say otherwise they will charge 49000 for the unknown utilisation of data from my number.

                    The customer service assures a call back in 24 hrs since last 4 days - but they dont do so.

                                Despite of thousand calls and thousand requests no one from airtel took the accountability or responsibility to assist on getting my concern resolved. Never expected such pathetic services. I have sent multiple emails to [protected]@in. Airtel.com and i have spoken to multiple supervisors, none could answer my question. Now they are asking me to pay the bill, when i asked why should i pay the full amount when they failed to provide me full services, no answer from anyone.
                                They said it's a problem with my phone - i changed phones multiple times and checked, but i could never enable volte
                                They said it's a problem with the sim card - i ve' been to the store and replaced the sim card either, but it never worked.
                                They said please check the settings and put the sim in sim1 - i did everything and infact i tried with multiple phones as i suggested above, but no luck.

                                Someone please help me, i seriously wish to take this issue legally, as a customer i pay money and i expect all promised services.

                                  I wish to complain about airtel digital TV that I purchased on April at gurgaon location.

                                  I am complaining because airtel services are very poor and airtel cheat with their customer . To resolve this problem i'm frustrated since last 10 days

                                  When I first learned of this problem, I contact airtel customer care for resolving my issue before 10 days ago at your company, and was told that nothing could be done about my problem. I believe that this response is unfair because you do fails commitment with your customers.. At the time of sealing your product you commit good services with us but after sales airtel cheat with their customer and make fooolll. In daily basis we call 5 to 6 time your customer supporting team.but they are not giving proper response It's mean your airtel staff is not well manor how to attend the customer so first before the sealing your product for making customer fool give proper training to your staff.

                                      I had a validity period of 3 days left in my mobile number and recharged with a validity pack of 28 days. So as a consumer i would expect a validity of 31 days but was only given 27 days. May i know who stole the 4 days of validity from my number. Since you have already stole the life time validity from my number which was offered by airtel at the time of purchasing the sim without any announcement i would like to clarify if there was any written or public addressing done on the issues already if not please take this as a kind reminder and resolve the issues as soon as possible.

                                        I am not getting a proper response after having spoken to a number of persons on customer care and after having visited your show rooms. My number is [protected]. As advised sim need to be changed by your kakani towers nungambakkam chennai, paid the money to have it. I was advised it will be activated in 4 hours. Till then not activated. I had gone to another show room in perambur. I was advised that no action taken and they need to insert yet another sim. For which my wife presence is needed. I went traveling a distance to bring my wife. When he checked he then tells me that the sim which was changed in your kakani towers is in progress. And it will be activated by 8 pm. Called up your customer care twice on sunday. I got the same reply it will be activated shortly. Yesterday i called up your office on [protected] and he told me he will escalate the issue and it will be activated on 20 may. Till now it is not activated. Please advise and let me know what steps are you taking to comfort the customer instead of inconveniencing the customer
