    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.

                        I have received an text stating your service will be stopped from so and so date and mentioned documents to be submitted in the Airtel store.
                        1. In the store no one can able to tell what is the reason to block out going call also why suddenly requested for document submission.
                        2. Either customer care support can help me with the reason.
                        i havent asked for new sim or reported any issue since why all of sudden asking for documents to be submitted and stopped out going calls and text msgs?
                        is anyone recently asked new sim? as you can see many fraud happening customer have all right to know the reason where Airtel not even supporting as well none of them aware or knowledge to check necessary detail.
                        i think its better to get education and training on basic thing.
                        hope Airtel or outsider trying for some fraud and if i find duplicate sim issues or new sim issued in my name to someone else Airtel is all responsible. your irresponsibility causing me loss from 1 day and you have to fill that.

                        After 5 days they have removed service and asking to buy new sim as they can eat my 1 year plan money and such a worst service provider
                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                        its been 3 rd day where i am calling and e mail to customer support.
                        they dont even have basic knowledge to check necessary details. its been 2 days+ where i have submitted the documents to store and till now service not given.
                        is really you guys submitted the documents are misusing it or put it in dust bin. looking at customer care behavior and store employees anything can happen.
                        change the name wecare to we dont care. i have sent e mail to we care 121 e mail and nodal officer still wecare and 121 send separate e mails stating connect to 121 as wecare dont look in to this issue same with 121. they just playing a dirty game.

                            Every year one or other will happen and we should leave all work and roam to Airtel office.
                            i have recharged 1 year plan since no respect for me and the branch manager speak with Gutka and say do what ever you want. write e mail to anyone call anyone.
                            look at the audacity ? for what that much just because i am a women and i cannot do anything ?
                            ask your employees to keep their men ego with them and sending simple text go to nearest airtel shop will solve problem ?
                            do you know the time value ? leaving our work all the time will do same?
                            i need my 1 year plan recharge money back i will go to other network. after knowing already recharged you guys disrespect. i am scared to go to branch now dont know what they do to me also what they do with my documents. anything happened to me or to my no not working anything Airtel is the reason.

                                    Airtel cheating on internet. Sometimes my 1.5 gb per day data finishes in just 3-4 hours.
