      Hello,

      I recently ported my number from Vi to Airtel on prepaid service. I am unable to activate Facetime on my iPhone using Airtel.

      I have contacted Apple and they have said that all the settings are correct.

      I am getting the error message "Verifying..."

      "Facetime Activation - An error occurred during Activation. Try again"

      Please help.

        Hi, I have initiated Airtel Xstream internet connection on Sunday i.e. on 20 Nov, 2022. They have asked me to make the payment first, I did the payment now there is no response from their side. Also, the internet connection is not activated yet. I have tried to call them 500 times but every time they said there is back end issue. Now I am asking for refund but again no response. Please find the screenshots attached and contact number below.

                  Duplicate SIM not activated after four hours

                  I had received a duplicate SIM for my airtel number since the original SIM stopped working. Copy of ID proof was also submitted. I was told that the SIM would be activated within 4 hours. However, it's been almost 24 hours and the SIM has not been activated yet. I am unable to connect to the customer service number 121 from my alternate JIO sim. I stand to miss a lot of important calls and critical OTPs as I wait for the SIM to get activated....

                            Dear Sir/Madam,

                            I have been a satisfied customer with Airtel telecom service for a long time. My mobile number is [protected]. But I regret to inform you that nowadays, I am having difficulty in conversations due to poor network reception.

                            The handset’s network indicator shows full signal, but I cannot make a clear phone call. This unwanted obstruction is posing lots of inconvenience for me and i can't use internet properly.

                            When I first learned of this problem, I had already made a complaint, but no one took any action upon it. I have made several calls to customer service, but no one fixed it

                            I expect a quick response as satisfying your customers should be your priority. This is not a professional way to run a business. You need a proper customer service department. I always pay my dues within time, and still, I have to face such issues.
                            In this situation, I request you to take the necessary actions to resolve this problem as early as possible.

                            I look forward to hearing from you as quickly as possible to fix this problem. If I do not hear from you within 7 days, I will file complaints with the appropriate consumer agencies and consider my legal alternatives.
                            You can contact me at the above address and phone number.
                            Yours faithfully,

                            Umesh Roy

                              My request for new Airtel prepaid sim card has been unattended and not responded by any Airtel agency. I hereby bring to the notice of Airtel that a new customer like me is eager to take a connection that is being neglected. Such a shame for a big network like Airtel. If no action has been taken against my new connection request I will approach Jio or Vodafone for a new connection.

                              Oder Number : 41-[protected] dated 09/11/22
                              Order Number : 41-[protected] dated 14/11/22

                              I request the Airtel customer care team to inform me about what kind of lead was taken by the concerned agency on the above 2 orders given by me..
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                Please arrange to send my modem caution deposit amount. I was already returned the modem to your person. But any one was not answering about refund.

                                  I had raised a request for new Airtel broadband connection. Ticket number is 21-[protected]. I had paid around Rs. 3000 for this and it was supposed to be installed on 15th Nov. It has been 5days now and still the broadband has not been installed. I have tried customer service and they have not helped in any way. The executive responsible for this installation process stopped replying once payment had been made. This is extremely harassing and causing major issues since we are not being able to work without internet connection.
                                  Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
