recharge amount not reflected still getting error code 6`

Address: NO 68 3RD MAIN ROAD, GANAPATHI NAGAR, ATTUR, Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, 603101

We have recharged Airtel digital tv 12th April customer id-[protected]
reg mobile no-[protected]

In my account, we have around 400rs but still, on TV it is showing due to insufficient balance.

We called customer care more than 10 times, but no one can't able to fix this issue. Resolve it asap.
And also while checking in menu it is showing 200 rs instead of 400....

    I can't use my phone number [protected] in some apps. My upi related to this number stopped working. When amazon delivery or some others call me. They get this number as invalid.

    I tried using different handsets but the problem persists.

    I have contacted the airtel customer service. They say this is not related to network and what not. Nor are they forwarding to the concerned people.

        Airtel never posted any message of late payment fee charge of rs. 15 in any of its websites nor, in its terms paper where the user signs.

        Why is this such a malpractice and such a cheap behavior with airtel. Why will they not even inform the customers that some late fee is deducted. Some warning message will at least make the customer to recharge on time.

        Such a cheap behavior.

          I had selected my new channel pack on 998 (service provider by company on tv) and had sent this pack to company on 18.03.2019 but company was not started my channel pack. Therefore I had to continue with previous costly recharge pack.
          Please look forward my issue as soon as possible.

            Airtel service providers are now blocking the services completely if not recharged every monthly. People of common background are completely helpless with this situation and they rely on the incoming calls which has been blocked... Help the common users in this case. Also it is noted that trai has said any service providers will not block the service for minimum amount recharges every month. But this has been violated.. Please take the necessary action against this cheap act against airtel company.

              Hi,
              I have applied airtel broadband almost 3 years back. 2 week ago i was trying to change my plan and i requested airtel then i came to know that my connection is corporate and i can't change my plan.
              I dont know why airtel opened my connection as corporate if i applied connection by me only.
              I have written multiple emails to airtel but no reply from there.
              Now i dont know what to do now.

                  Hi,
                  We are paying 99 rs. Per month on airtel secure for insurance of mobile handset since 2017, the phone was gifted by my childhood friend, recently my screen broke but these people are not giving me claim amount but earlier (2 years) back for the same case they gave me the amount. Now they are saying there terms and conditions are changed moreover airtel is playing ball game, they are putting on one asist and one asist is putting on airtel. They also said that you just email that it's gifted from a friend, we emailed them but now they are not giving us the claim. We will put a legal case on airtel and one asist
                  Thanks

                    Cust id # [protected]. Cust name balaji. I’ve been facing error code 6 issue for the past 5 days with my airtel digi tv. With channels not available till now and money balance been deducted daily, there’s absolutely no response from the service provider. Continues follow ups are been made with no resolution. There was an escalation number provided[protected] who are supposed to be the senior representatives of the network are not able to provide the solution even. This seems to be recurring for many customers and are forced to move out of airtel losing the money. This ridiculous and a completely unacceptable lethargic approach on airtel to its customers.

                                Hello

                                My airtel dth plan till 4th april 2019 was annual max hd pack with validity upto 20th oct 2019. Superb plan!!

                                This is regarding cheating done by airtel dth customer care executives to me.
                                On 4th april, i called airtel dth customer service and asked mr mangesh whether i can add few channels without changing my existing package. Mr mangesh told me sure sir, you can add channels without disturbing your existing package and need to pay additional inr 12 per month for the channels you wish to add. I confirmed this assurance from him thrice during the call.

                                Then the executive added the new channels i wish to add.

                                But surprisingly i found all the previous package channels are deactivated and only the newly added channels can be seen.

                                So immediately i called back to airtel customer care. Ms hemaliji khatri (Senior executive) talked with me. She admitted the mistake done by mr mangesh and she offered me that they can add inr 350 to my dth account due to the inconvenience caused by wrong information provided by mr mangesh.
                                I replied her, please do not offer me money, rather reactivate my old package.
                                She told me that she is forwarding this case to expert team for resolution of this complaint and within 48 working hours i will get the resolution.

                                Till date i wasted calling airtel customer care for hours together, but i didn't received any satisfactory resolution.
                                Every call use to be starting with abcd.. And ends with we will get back to you within 24 hours with the resolution.
                                But everything is in vain.

                                The only output from all these conversations is my mental harassment caused by airtel dth customer care executives.
                                They are admitting their mistake in every call, but don't know what is restricting them to give me proper resolution.
                                The resolution offered by them is like - "they have stolen my mercedes car, and instead returning me maruti 800 car"

                                In every call i asked for the essential information about head/ in charge of their department against whom i can file a case in consumer court regarding this matter, but none of them provided me the information.

                                Copy of this email is also forwarded to some important departments for the reference which i may need in future.

                                In addition i am also forwarding this at directorate of public grievance, govt of india

                                Regards

                                    Its been very sad to say that after been a loyal costumer for more then 15 year now airtel services has became so bad,
                                    I have visited to airtel store on 10-04-19 and inform them that i have 3 no of airtel with one parent and 2 child connections after checking records they told me that it can be done but only when i wife visits to store as no was in her name, i was fine with it as its genuine request.
                                    Now again on 12-04-19 i visited with my wife to store token no is b016 and mr vijay was there to handle us, i explaining them what i want now they informed me that they cant change all the numbers at one go it have to be done one by one, why airtel thinks we don't have anything to do and we have whole time in world to just keep running for this small things,
                                    After hearing that i called 12118 costumer care to find solution, now they say that i first have to split all the no then only it can be done, if this was the solution then why the store representative informed me on 10 i could have done that on that day and on 12 all my no would have been converted to prepaid.
                                    I requested both the places that my wife is moving out of town and cant come every time for this small work as store is far from my house, they did not listen to any thing and keep repeating like a robo.
                                    I don't understand how these companies make us run for all these small things, its was such small request to finish all the work in one day in place of making me and my wife run for 3 -4 times.
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                      Hello airtel, i am mobile postpaid user and i was charged rs 100 (April 2019) for delay in paying the fee. I was not intimated about the fee, the messages only said that please pay so that your services may uninterrupted or disconnected. This is completely not acceptable to charge an amount of rs 100 for a regular customer. I insist that you waive off this amount from my current bill. Your network is however slow and people are already tired...
