Dear Nodalofficer,

Can you please first revert on my question that without my signature and identity how you transferred my number to someone else name . I am going to consumer court regarding the same, you guys did it without my permissions just because you are getting a postpaid connection conversion from prepaid connection . As well why this TOC is there if number was on my name I have all legal rights to have it again . Let's meet in court for the same .

Thanks & Regards

I am not getting signal coverage at my indoor address since last 2 years.
I made 100′s of complaints via emails, phone, arc, etc. But all in vain. All srs are closed forcefully saying duplicate sr, customer not contactable, partial coverage. All reasons are fake, as airtel never contacted me for this issue, even after raising so many srs.
At time of giving connection airtel promises robust network and coverage, which is actually never available practically.
If you give partial coverage then why not you charge me for that partial rent on my postpaid nos.
I get call drops immediately and get charged for them too.
I am mentally harassed and frustrated using your connection due to no signals.
I have to wait for 1 hour to get signal in my mobile at a small place in my home where 1 point of signal comes, and that too gets dropped off after few seconds/minutes.
I was told that airtel is installing a tower in my area. On asking for new tower details, they never provide, because actually it never exists.
Kindly resolve my issue in another 1 week or provide me signal booster, which i requested 100 times but never got it.
If this issue is not resolved immediately then i shall send this message on all your marketing agents like fb, twitter, linkedin, etc and yahoo group where 10, 000 employees of my company are members. Anyhow 30% of my employees have already left your connection due to poor signals.
Even your nodal officers and appellate authorities are not serious to reply my emails/calls to them. Take this issue very seriously

Hi Team,

I am customer of Airtel prepaid from last 3-4 years and my number is ported to post paid for family plan and activate 630 plan. I was paid my first bill on 12 April INR 530 now I have seen my primary number is deactivated because of payment not paid. I want to know why I should payment separate where I have taken family plan and I have added my other number [protected] I have attached confirmation sms. I am going to discontinue with Airtel. I want to port with Jio which is much better option.

Primary Airtel number - [protected]
Due Amount - 823
Secondary Airtel number - [protected]
Due amount - 916.21

I initiated wallet addition of 150. But after addition it is not allowed to debit. What the hell is not allowed to debit. Is it only for looting money. After calling customer care they are saying to mail personal important documents to lift hold on my wallet. If you need those information then say it before someone adds money, not by looting them. That's the reason this wallet is behind from others, you have shown me your true face when i urgently needed a recharge. Get me my money back otherwise i'll go to consume court. If you only want money then ask me directly i'll give you some donation. What's this unethical way of looting money. I'm never ever going to this # wallet.

The network speed from airtel 4g was working fine before but now from last two days it is working so slow that it made me unable to browse instagram video statuses of my interest.
I complained over 198 call centre and they registered the complaint but still the condition is same on another day. The promise of airtel for quality service is getting doubtful. My complaint number registered with airtel 198 service is
C4gsp[protected].

Even after recieving the complaints from user, you are not adhering to the promise of quality service to your customer.

My number [protected], has been ported in to airtel from jio at 11:53:00 on 14th may 2019, but i have not been able to get service on my airtel sim as of the time of writing which is 8:58 am on 15th of march, 2019. I have been in touch with customer service, which have told me to wait for four hours for the past 9 hours. As this is causing monetary loss for me, i request you to take quick action, else this will serve as a written record for the discovery process.

Myself alicia, customer using airtel dth. My subscription is still active with airtel my complain is everytime i recharge there's always a technical problem and my tv doesn't work. I complain everytime and they tell me next day 11:30 am the problem will be solved but that never happens. Everytime we recharge but we can't watch it because of airtel technical problem but still they will cut money for service which they are not providing itself. So everytime my money is just wasting. Airtel is a fraud company and their representative as well. I want my refund.

Your telecom company advertise that airtel is the fastest network in india.. But there is no internet speed in our area even if it is 4g network. Its only less than 10kbps. Why there is such a problem in 4g network. You are jusy fooling the peoples nothing else. I think its waste of taking an unlimited pack in this slow network. Nowadays your service is also not good. If it continues the same i will be looking for other service provider...

Worst service i ever seen. Raised complaint many times within 4 years about network issue but every time the customer executive told that "dear sir, we are upgrading the tower at your location. Within 3 months you will get best network." and i am hearing this lines since 4 years. You are not capable to provide network or not capable to give proper solution.

I recharged my Airtel DTH on 26 April 2019 with amount 320 Rs from Paytm.
The plan was represented as validity of 1 month.

So, it was atleast supposed to work till 25 May 2019.

But Airtel expired the plan today on 14 May 2019.
They expired the plan even before 20 days.

This has happened a lot of times before but we didn't care much. Now I decided to take a stand.

My airtel customer id[protected]

I had logged a complaint on 27-april-2019 for lost sim and i was told the sim had been deactivated. However i want to close my connection but until today 15-may-2019 the connection has not been closed. I was told for closing the connection address verification is required and it was done on 3-may-2019. However still no action was performed. But i still getting emails from customer support that address verification is required and i need to clear my outstanding. I had paid all my outstanding amount as of today. Please help to take action on this immediately

Hi, I am Kamalakar B Shinde, My Mobile Number is [protected], My original Mobile postpaid plan is amounting Rs.199/-. further, after my concern along with Airtel executive it is changed in month of Oct-Nov 2018 to Rs.149/-. From last two months it is noted that my plan is again changed from Rs.149 to Rs.299/- directly with out my concern, without any information. It is again shocking that in last month my Mobile Plan changes from Rs.299 to Rs.499/-. within this period I frequently visited to your airtell galleries to appel the same and call on 121.
Sir, It is very clear that without my concern, without any notice, without my requirement, Airtel company is frequently changing my plan and without considering my financial ability to sustain the same. I would like to inform you that I am not responsible for such a type of Ridicules issues created by your Team, secondly I will not pay a single rupee for these additional plan, forced by Airtel.
Please look in to the matter seriously and resolve the issue along with settlement of my previous bills as early as possible.

Thanking You.

That sir, it is learnt that the company is under going construction of airtel tower at chilliso village and landowner is being paid to t.

Hi,
I am facing data problems from last 3 months and complained so many times. But did not get any response till date. I am also attaching the sample video for the same. Airtel is saying that its the fastest network in India, but before saying this thing just watch my video and after that you'll realise that you are the wrost network of india.

Hi
This is chandrashekhar vaidya here my no is [protected].
I’ve been charge booster charges from jan’19 onwards. Which i’ve not activated from my side. You can check my records, then why am i charged for.
Same i’ve been complaining to customer service for every month they promise me they will escalate this issue but nothing happens beyond that, and last month i received cold from your billing department saying you need to pay these charges since the bill has been raised, we’ll reverse two months charges in your next bill. This what was promised to me.
But i noticed that i’ve been charged for booster charges this month also. What is going on? This is called cheating.
I want action on this issue for last three months asap.
Stop charging and reverse last three months charges. I’m not going to pay this please.
Regards
Chandrashekhar vaidya
