I keep travelling to saudi arabia, this time when i travelled on 20th april 2019. I did not take any international packs be it daily or monthly. I checked my plan also that nothing is active. Still, airtel charges me with 649 daily amount for international roaming service.. I want all the charged to be reversed and to be charged on normal international charges as per my usage.

I have attached my plan screenshot and it's no where showing any service activated. And if it's done i should have been notified

    'airtel' - the biggest brand in telecom industry today is the biggest robber in india. With most inefficient customer care service they can't resolve a single request which is pending for last 16 days.
    Sequence of events:
    -with my existing connection i'd:[protected]-01/02/03 i raised a request for splitting 02 connection on 15th april.
    — airtel suggested to put a disconnection request and then a new id would be allocated.
    — 20th april they suggested to raise a split request as disconnection is not the right solution.
    - then they disconnected the dishtv without any information.
    -26th i called up and they gave a new id [protected] and asked to wait for a day before the new id is activated.
    -28th they confirmed the i'd is activated and i can recharge. I recharged for 380 rs
    Twice as first time it had some issue.
    -since last 3 days they are telling me the id is not correct and because i have placed a disconnection request (Which they have suggested) and they can't serve this anymore.
    I need a new connection...
    What the heck... Is this....
    I am being humiliated like anything with me than 20 calls in last 15 days and every call takes more than 20 mins. I have spent my 300-400 mins on this unprofessional useless organization customer care who know nothing how to get a simple issue resolved.

    I need to get the connection revoked and need my money back.
    I can't not have more courage to talk to these people anymore.
    Pehle sab try kia... Ab paya... Is se bekar connection india mein nahi hai...

        I have been trying to reach customer care for my poor data connectivity for last 1 months, but your customer care team is pathetic, they are not able to resolve this.

        Today i was told by jaswinder (Sr. Customer specialist) @11:15 am, that there is an issue with tower at my area, fixing this may take 90-120 days?
        Is this how you do business? After a consumer is buying project, you are saying there is issue with tower and you can not use for 3-4 months? Is it justified?

              Hi converted my sim from postpaid to prepaid today. Signals are and incoming is active. But outgoing says i've been barred from making outgoing calls. Tried recharging the number on paytm and my airtel but both say recharge could not be processed as the number belongs to unknown operator. This is very annoying and i also happen to have a 449 balance on my airtel wallet. Please resolve this at the earliest as given my usage, not having outgoing even for a day is a big issue for me.

                Dear sir / ma'am
                Greetings!

                This is to bring your kind notice that i'm a regular customer of airtel services including mobile network and dth services. But from last few days, my mobile number [protected] is out of service without my consent to do so.
                I have never been informed by any of airtel representative or customer care services representative regarding discontinuation of services on my number. Now i'm facing a huge problem and discomfort due to termination of network services. Most of accounts and digital services have the same number as registered mobile number for otps, transaction verifications, online services, bank accounts and other similar credential tasks. But due to discontinuation of this number i'm unable to use all these services.
                So many important works, communications and contacts have been missed which resulted in huge financial, social and professional losses to me.
                Thus it's my humble request to you that kindly resume my mobile number and services on top priority.
                I'm expecting prompt revert and actions from you in this regard.
                Being most trusted service provider, i don't want to build a negative image of your esteemed organization and really don't want to terminate our association as consumer and service provider.
                Kindly look into the matter and resolve and resume my mobile number.
                In whole family we are 14 members using airtel mobile network services and 4 dth connections. So we don't want to stop using your services after long period of satisfactory services just because of one disappointment.
                So please let my faith on airtel strengthen more and more by resolving this issue at earliest.

                With last hope and expectation from airtel cellular services

                Thanks and humble request

                  My balance was completed on 23 april 2019, from then they have stopped incoming calls and messages. I have no problem if they stop incoming calls. how can they stop incoming messages. if a person cannot receive otp from bank how they further recharge through online facilities.
                  even they do not give option to opt out from their network and choose other network with same number.
                  all I am saying customer should have the choice to choose, you cannot dictate or change your rules on your own, if we do not like your rules there is no option for leaving.
                  opting for your network look like entering into quicksand either we cannot comply to your rules/difficult to comply with the rules or leave the network with same number.
                  I don't know why conditions/rules became very strict all of a sudden. you have to according to customers comfort not compel them to comply with your rules by force.

                          I recharge my Airtel Number [protected] with Rs. 349 on 21/04/19 and the recharge failed.
                          I tried to recharge with Rs. 349 again on 22/04/19 but the recharge failed again.
                          I got 2 message 1 message on 21/04/19 and the 2nd on 22/04/19 both message mentioning that i will get the refund within 7 days.
                          But till today I didn't get any refund.
                          Checking the bank account everyday for the refund.
                          Contacted the customer care and Facebook message of Airtel.
                          They said they are looking into the matter.
                          Please help.
                          I am willing to know if this problem is from Airtel side or from my Bank side.
                          Screen shot attached from airtel website by logging into my account recharge transaction section.
                          Thank you for your help.

                          Complaint marked as Resolved 
                          At around 12 pm I received the 1st recharge refund of Rs. 349. And the 2nd recharge refund I received at about 3 pm. I requested airtel on Facebook message to look into the matter. I also complained about this on consumercomplainto.in today probably at around 10 am. Airtel facebook message told me that the refund process takes around 7 - 10 days from the bank side. Got those two refunds and now I am happy. Thank you again for helping.

                            On 28/04/2019 I carried out online transaction through the Airtel App for my mobile number [protected] for Rs.459/- As the transaction was not completing I repeated 2 times ( Total 3 times) of which 2 have failed.
                            ID[protected] Rs.459 - Failed
                            ID[protected] Rs.459 - Failed
                            ID[protected] Rs. 459 - Successful
                            I am yet to get the refund.
                            I checked my bank statement a couple of times. If a transaction fails it should reflect the next day.

                                On my mobile value added service has been directly activated by airtel and charges have been mentioned in my bill of march 2019, which display value added service chages for 18th and 30th march without my consent. How airtel can directly activate and add any valued added service without consent o[censored]ser and heavy bill has been charged by them. This is one kind of cheating to customer.

                                    irregularities in receiving message about remaining data

                                    The text messages that company sends notifying 50% 90% and 100% data used are not consistent. I didn't received 50 and 90 % data used messages many times and directly got 100% data used message. It's like airtel is doing this purposely so as to force us to use their top up data vouchers which starts around 50 rs. Also there is irregularities in their app notifying about current plan and data used. Many times i couldn't use see how much data...

                                    I am prepaid airtel customer for 8 years. I now use the airtel app to topup my talktime and data for internet usage. Everytime i topup my balance remains zero!!! Plus when i call landlines, espeically air india, i get a message saying i have zero balance and can't make this call. Then another message come alive and tells me i can get ten rupees credit by pressing 1. Then the message says i can't get ten rupees because i have an outstnding balance due of ten rupees. Are you madd??? This is insane. Whats going on??? What does it take to make landline calls to air india... A well known airline??? Of course. [protected].
