    I have choosen hd channels while making my own pack and send the message by scanning the QR code and i have recharged my account by amount 358Rs
    But they suspended my account and when i contact to customer care they misbehave with me and after that conversation they said u have requested for normal channel not hd and when i asked to make hd channel they said it would be only for 30 days.
    I am highly frustated with airtel i would recomend every citizen of India not to become a part of airtel network.

          Dear Sir/ Ma’am,

          This mail is with the reference to my complaint for manipulation in billings and service charges. TRAI is the regulatory which show the way out of trouble all the time and I am hoping for the same again.

          I am using Airtel network since more than two months and getting the worst network problem from this network operator. I have raised issue with operator but still there is no resolution (even not ready to confirm the timeline of resolution). As per my knowledge there is some TAT for every complaint raised by customer but they denied it.
          We are living in the time of technology but when it comes to Airtel it seem like they are far away from technology. I can’t believe it takes so long to resolve network issue, it’s almost 3 months since I raised complaint but there is no call or Solution for problem. I am not asking to Airtel to give me 4G internet speed all the time but basic need of network.
          I don’t know what kind of manipulation they have done with their towers, it shows full range but if someone calls me call doesn’t get connected and says my mobile is switched off. I am finding myself in the trap of this company, even they are charging me for missed call alert but not a single alert message is coming on my mobile. There is no network, No alert message, no internet. I am facing so much trouble in my daily job due to this issues.

          This is directly or indirectly a fraud with customer and I really want to raise legal case against Airtel for doing fraud with common customers for doing this act. I hope at least I can get details to raise a case against Airtel along with process details from TRAI. Kindly help me in this and let me know the process of it.

          Thanks & Regards,

            I raised complain multiple times to airtel customer care. We are still monitoring you complaint.
            Today i had very important business call. I had multiple time call failed. Even i didn’t speack to the person. Call failed more than 10 times. After all this i lost the business due to airtel bad network. I am using postpaid connection. Even i am paying more to the airtel. This is not worth it. If i am not getting the better network.
            I just to sue them.
            Where can i raise the complaint against the airtel?

                I have raised request for shifting my broadband cum landline connection to new address. Request no is[protected]. It was notified to me that it will be completed within 3 days and new address also checked for feasibility of this connection.
                After 3 days, suddenly without notifying they disconnected this connection. When i checked via customer care no - it says this landline no doesnt exist. Then i have checked in airtel customer centre - then i came to know that they deactivated this connection without notifying to me.
                I dont understand why they cancelled this connection?
                Airtel customer care sent mail to seniors - then i got call for re-activation. It was mentioned it will be activated and then raise a new shifting address request which can be done in the same day.
                Until now, this number is not activated.
                I had taken 6 months plan (Prepaid) from which 3 month left.
                Kindly resolve this issue at the earliest.

                Its not yet resolved.
                They reactivated and changed the landline number.
                But after one week, they generated it as new bill to pay 5428.
                I had paid for 6 months plan by Dec 2018. Then why Airtel generated new bill by Feb?
                When I asked customer care, they mentioned that payment for Dec bill not paid. But when I told them to check with old landline no, then they accepted that I had paid by Dec 31, 2018.
                They took this as complaint and given the request no as[protected].
                Kindly resolve this at the earliest.

                  15-feb-2019 raised a request to shift airtel dish to new home.

                  One lady called from customer service, she booked appointment.

                  Service guy called at morning 10, he will be coming at 12 to shift the dish. But never showed till 3. We called him at 3, he spoke to us like he completely no idea what we called him for. He said he will come by before 5.
                  We called him after 5, his mobile no went switched off.

                  Till 21-feb-2019, never showed.

                  That customer service no also switched off.

                  We raised request means, it should be closed or we should get some update on our request status.

                  Not happy at all. We know airtel has millions customers, but still a proper text message on request status would have been nice.

                  Thanks

                      Address: house no. 4, eastern park, 6th road, santoshpur, Kolkata, West Bengal, 700075

                      I am an existing customer of airtel digital tv (Id: [protected]), with the registered mob:[protected] i already had an existing connection for 1 year of hd+sd channels of rs.5999 valid till 7th oct, 2019.

                      Now for [protected]-001 as per government and trai regulation on new tariff packs, i was sent a link, where airtel suggested a pack for me at rs.699/month which was the closest to my existing pack and i approved it. I was told by the customer helpline that i will be able to see most of the current channels if i choose the pack suggested. So i did. (Ref id : 316864).

                      But even after so many days, i am not able to see many of the channels. Most news channels are also gone.
                      Many of the channels in my first connection for which i already paid till oct 2019 has been stopped. Although i had selected a new pack suggested by airtel digital themselves. Most news channels (Which is extremely important), along with many free channels, which were previously shown are not being shown anymore. The free channels like republic tv and all nowhere to be seen.
                      Also, i have been kept in the dark about the plans for the connecting set top box [protected]-002.

                      I have been previously assured that in time the problem will be solved but, but now they are saying i am not entitled to watch any more channels. They are even not providing me with most of the free channels. On top of that, they are calling me up to pay for extra channels. I feel terribly cheated and is cursing myself that i selected airtel and had been associated with it for so long.

                      Terribly disappointed by the service meted out to me. Please help.

                        I am not understanding, whom tria is helping with this new rules for dth services, whatever free channels provided with in basic plan are only hindi, please ask them to do region specific, for ex., south indians are not much aware of hindi language, instead of giving free hindi channels for them they should be provided by south languages.

                          Hi,

                          I am a customer of airtel broadband since 2004 and have trusted airtel since then due to its customer support but the recent event has completely changed my views against this.

                          My details:
                          Landline number:[protected]

                          I placed an upgrade request to my current plan (Rs. 799 with 40 mbps vfiber along with 100gb data) to fiber line for which i was getting charged only 100 rupees extra @ rs. 899 per month but couldn't install the fiber line for some days as renovation was taking place on my home at that time but when i called back the customer support today they say that such discount is no longer available and no one is ready to help me out.

                          Here are the issues:
                          1. When the order was getting canceled there was no notification given to me which is a fault at your end!
                          2. Customer support is pathetic and even your senior advisor are not ready to help me out.

                          With this, i can only conclude that you take care of new customers but you disregard your old loyal customers as no one from your support team was ready to help me in this case. I was given a blunt response that "i can't do anything you have to pay 999 if you want fiber" in the worst tone which you can't expect from a professional company.

                          In case this issue is not resolved, i am going to boycott airtel broadband and going to share the same experience with my friends who are using airtel in my area.

                          I will make sure that i take appropriate steps to boycott airtel broadband from my area due to the lack of customer support that we are having nowadays for old customers.
                          Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                          I am unable to making calls it automatically cuts the call while i making the calls
                          New SIM not activated even after 7 days of purchase. Airtel is such a as##@@ company. What a pathetic service!!! Bloody idiots. Shame on them.

                            Hi,

                            I have applied for a airtel broadband connection on 18th feb 2019. I was told by the customer executive that installation will be done on the same day (Airtel broadband connectivity is already available in my apartment complex). Since it was very urgent for me to get the internet access i agreed to apply for airtel broadband. I made the payment of rs 2400 on 18th feb 2019. Unfortunately broadband connectivity is not yet...

                                  I have a bitter experience with airtel customer care, i got a pre-paid airtel sim card but my sms is not working, i was told since i changed sim card it will not work for 48 hrs, which is fine but the time has passed more than 48 hrs, still sms not working. I am not able to chat as i am not getting otp as well. I am not able to reach customercare to talk to a real person, i have been to many countries and used many service operators, if i wish to pay an talk to someone who can fix my problem i must be able to be reached, but with airtel it is not possible.

                                    I would like to bring to your notice that your company has started installing a mobile tower in the next compound at no.68, 6th street, baghyathammal nagar, padi, chennai-600050 without any prior permission from respective authorities.

                                    I further to state that installation of dangerous mobile towers in residential areas is not authorised by the department of telecommunication and pollution control board because the tower emits rf radiation which causes cancer, brain tumor, heart problems etc. As per scientific findings. I am already an heart patient,
                                    I along with other members of the residents of 6th street, baghyathammal nagar request you to stop the tower installation work at once failing which we may be forced to approach the pollution control board and human rights commission.
                                    Thanks
                                    Regards
