I'm really frustrated from airtel since 6-7 months, my down speed is not more than 100-300kbps but upload speed is around 10-12mbps, i tried calling customer care but everytime they that there is technical problem and will be resolved in 4 hours and this has been going on since months.
My mom uses airtel too but her internet speed is always around 8-19mbps.
I am attaching screenshot of recent soeed tests.
Kindly resolve my issue asap.

I have converted my airtel number ([protected]) from postpaid to prepaid today. When i try to recharge error msg appears 'please enter a valid airtel number'.

I checked with the customer care as well, they said that the number is active and functional. I can receive calls but not able to make any outgoing calls because of insufficient balance. I tried to log a complaint at airtel site, but after filling the details i cannot even click the submit button. I have been using the same number as postpaid for years. This is a very poor service from such a reputed brand.

I have two set up box connections from one ID number [protected] of which I want to deactivate one set up box as my TV is damaged.
Please deactivate set-up box number [protected].
I have called customer care executive multiple times and already registered the complaint but no action has been taken .
It's almost a month and I'm paying for both the connections unnecessarily.

Poor 4g net speed in Rajiv Gandhi IT park Chandigarh, same in housing board chownk chandigarh, same in manimajra chandigarh.
I never get internet speed of airtel.
Please spend some money in improving your speed
Stop spreading fake news about fast net speed on TV .
Please take some action to improve your 4g net speed.
I have attached screenshots of ookla speedtest and 4g Airtel sim inserted in Slot1 even then I am getting too low net speed.
I feel regret after recharging with net pack.
Wasted 300 rupees

Dear airtel,
I recharge my account with package of rs.399 which is combination o[censored]nlimited calling & 2 gb data per day for 82 days. As usual after completing its 84 days, my pack got expire and i got the message of expiration of the package with detail that i'll be only having the service of incoming for a particular time period.
But after the expiry of my package, i was still having a balance of rs.45 in my account but i was unable to make a outgoing call.

So kindly tell me what is the value of that rs.45 in my account if i cannot make a call in emergency as i know the policy that one should have a minimum balance of 15-20 rupees in his account to avail the services of package. That situation was very sensitive for me when i have balance in my account but i cannot make a call and i suffered a lot in communication with my professional colleague and family members.

You are liable to answer me about this policy and i expect a compensation regard this trouble to me.

I'm continuously trying to recharge my number form various online recharge websites as my balance is 0.0 after i port from airtel postpaid to airtel prepaid.
Everywhere it's coming like; transaction failed due to incorrect telecom circle of recipient number, please contact your telecom service provider.
Resolve this asap.

Hello,

I have raised a request to change my dth plan on 16th february 2019 after knowing that channels i have subscribed all cancelled due to trai latest rules. I was in call with cc executive for nearly 40minutes and i have added nearly 25 channels which includes hd channels as well. Upon confirming the amount after adding the channel, i was told the amount as 241 i confirmed to activate all. They said server issue so by eod or by tomorrow will activate.
Then again on 17th february 2019 i called and told some channels that i added in the other days were not working and again in call for 40 minutes and i got it activated. Then i got the below msg from airtel. Attached the screen shot of the same for reference.

After two three days i got a msg telling that my monthly rental is 481 (Not sure the exact amount). But i was told 241 three days back so i called again and raised a complaint. I was promised that from backend technical person will call me and resolve this. I got a call next day telling we need to listen to the conversation made then will confirm. Till now i haven't got a call back. From so - called - airtel - office

Now, i got a msg telling connection is suspended and i was asked to recharge 481 rupees. Yesterday i made a call and nearly after 45 minutes and i was told it was a mistake from airtel cc executive who gave wrong information as 241.

Again i said ok then cancel all the hd channels and give me normal channels. They told they can't add/activate all channels and they can do 3 channels per day. It means i have to wait for 10 days and also i need to pay the rent of 480.

1. If i was told clearly the amount i shouldn't have subscribed the hd channels
2. While adding the channels they activated in a day but when i asking for de-activation they telling 'they can't. '. It's like day light robbery what kind [censored] system is this??
3. It was a mistake from airtel, why i should pay for the mistake?
4. When i will get the call back from technical side. Even if so why they are not providing proper information.
5. What about my extra 200rs added to my rental without my knowledge and false information provided by airtel cc executive or to put it in other ways amount i got cheated??

I got a request created (No msg received with the request number promised by mr. Giriyan, id - [protected]) i insisted him to stay on line till i get a msg but he was not ready to wait and he told me the request number. Till now (14 march, 13.11 pm) no call from airtel came to me regarding this issue. Giriyan promised me that i will get call today morning.

Note -
I am putting this on social websites and consumer complaint forum with supervisor name and id (Not sure it is genuine). Let people know about this cheating cheap behaviour from airtel stealing 200 rs from each.

-disappointed customer

I was not informed about premium charges,
When i called 1860 its cheating with client when he is provided unlimited postpaid scheme,

Suddenly they charge in bill its unfair,
No message to customer about what details they have about 1860 nos,

Without prior information how company can add charges in regular billing cycle i shocked when i saw my bill,

This is new style of fraud with post paid customers,

Once they have committed free service to out going how come they change premium rates.

Yesterday i got a msg from md-artlnt mentioning dear customer your land has got selected for airtel 4g tower installation in your premises and all technical part verified successfully. We would like to inform you that to make your license as soon as possible, so that we can install tower kindly co-operate with your project coordinator for further details. Your application id is air-5644329. T&c apply.
Airtel. Plz check the authenticity of this msg.

3 days back my sim abruptly stopped working and after relentless efforts to get some useful help out of the customer care, who as usual could provide no useful information, i had to make a visit to the airtel gallery.
I visited the airtel gallery at 1:00 pm, galleria where one of your staff memebers, informed me that i would need to get a duplicate sim. He gave me 1 sim card first and filled out the form after which he said there was an issue in the card he gave me and then gave me another on. He assured me my card would start working by 9pm that evening. I inserted the sim and showed him that the network indicator says "no sim" but he insisted it was because the sim hadn't been activated yet.

I waited until 9pm that night but no network, the next entire day without network, i went to the airtel gallery where the employee madeup a whole new story about them having to courier documents from to malad and that it would take until 9pm that day to get activated. He also had the audacity to tell me it might not even happen that day. I waited until 7pm and visited the gallery again where they tried to foll me again. I had to put my foot down for them to check in more detail which is when they found out all the details had already been updated. They inserted the sim in an age old nokia black white phone where the sim worked but the sim did not work in a latest phone. It randomly worked in 1 samsung phone and did not in another.
The employees now had the audacity to tell me it is my problem since they already gave the sim to me. And if the sim is not working i should get my handset checked. I told them to put another sim in my handset, which worked, proving it wasnt a handset issue.

These horrendous people now tell me tat for their mistake, i must go through this entire process all over again and very arrogantly said he still doesnt know if it is going to work or not.

Is this the kind of service airtel is going to provide. Is this the fast network that airtel boasts about. Keeping a customer without network for no fault of the customer for more than 3 days and giving no help in that regard.

I want this matter escalated and i am not going to take this harrassment lightly. Lying to the customer, making a fool out of them, ganging up against them as what the powai employees did, this is not something i am willing to let go of.

Why should i wait another 24 hours for a mistake that your employee made when he gave me a faulty sim card? Why should i have to waste my time and effor and energy visiting those liars at the gallery and getting mentally harrassed by them.
