                Hi,

                Wrt digitaltv id [protected], as per new trai rules we have choose the plan. We are not many channels which we have subscribed in our plan. It's been more then 10 days that we are chasing customer care and nodal team to activate the ssubscribed but there is no proper and no engineer visit. Y'day they changed plan which would cost us more and assured us that we will get subscribed channels but even now we are not able view those channels. And worst part is they are not responding to calls and emails.

                      Hello,

                      I recently migrated from prepaid to post paid on a family plan. Since the day of migration i am unable to use internet even though phone shows 4g signals. Contacted airtel via phone and twitter, was advised to try troubleshooting, including using sim in a different phone which did not resolve the issue. Sim was later replaced assuming it was a sim issue. Right now it still doesn't work, apparently, the issue appears to be from airtel's end and nobody is doing anything to fix the internet issue.

                      Why should i pay when i am unable to use internet at all. I want to go to a different provider, can you please share the procedure.

                            Hi,

                            My airtel prepaid mobile number [protected] does not get any signal on the phone and it says not registered on network. Been using this sim for almost 9 years. They asked me to visit a branch which i did in hsr layout next to bata showroom. The person at the counter told me that the number has been deactivated and that he will check whether we can get the number back again. He made fill up an airtel form for postpaid too. Also been given a duplicate sim card and now its been 4 days since i have the sim but no activation. On calling him, he tells me to call the next day. Neither the airtel office number is reacheable nor the person who gave me his mobile at the office. I have been calling the airtel call centre too and their version of the story is that the airtel prepaid number is still active and to visit the branch. I just need the number back. Help!
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              I raised the claim as the screen of my phone got cracked. It happened accidentally when I slipped due to wet floor. Airtel described it as improper handling.

                              Airtel rejected the claim saying that there is no external factor in this. Is water on the floor not external factor? Why I am paying 100 rupees per month for insurance?

                              First they write the terms & conditions in very generic terms and then they play with it to suit their objectives.

                              I want my claim to be accepted by Airtel Secure.

                              Date of Claim was 27th February 2019.

                                This is complaint regarding the connection no - [protected]-001

                                We have shifted our house on sunday hence relocated the connection with set top box and dish (Paid all the charges). Since we have cancelled one of the set-top box out of two, airtel has cancelled wrong set top box i. E. 001. But it should be 002 (That set top box is submitted to technician). Hence, 001 connection is suspended from airtel's end. With the ongoing suspension we have tried recharging it many but didn't succeed. My amount of rs. 2000 + is stuck in the balance of airtel.

                                After complaining from 4 days none of them are taking any action. Even they are saying that refund is not possible.

                                  I recharged my airtel mobile on 25th february 2019 through the citrusairtel website through my hdfc account. The amount was deducted immediately, however my phone was not recharged. It is 3 days since the amount was deducted and i dont know whom to complain. I am not able to get the customer care number of citrusairtel. I have attched the photo of my transaction.

                                      My consumer id is [protected].

                                      For the last 30 days i have been trying to make my own pack. I have sent more than 50 sms as per their instruction through tv. When i sent sms to 54325 they will ask me to contact [protected].
                                      When i contact them over phone there is no provision in the system to provide service to make my pack. There is one centre at calicut and i went there personally for 3 or 4 times they have no idea.

                                      I am a senior citizen and i do not know about proceed further. Since i have failed i am taking up the matter with you.
                                      Another request your office is that this companies are making fun of the whole govt. Orders.

                                      have received a reply. which is superfluous and not giving any solution to the problem. If a contact is made to one No. eg.54325 they will replly invalid contact No.[protected]. If the cost of new package is lessor than the old one this thing always happen. They suggest one pack which is costlier than the old existing pack. If we opt for lessor than the old existing one this thing happen. Only think I want to inform the co is that there are many DTH providers in India.

                                        I have got my airtel broadband 999 plan activated on 13 feb, however from that time on i have not been given with the additional benefits of amazon prime and netflix and i have reported the same to airtel from 15th feb and finally they have registered my first complaint on 20 feb under ticket number:[protected], and promised resolution in 3 days. But it is 01 mar and they kept raising multiple tickets with new '3 days resolution' time for the same issue and not solving it or responding properly the new customer care guy is benzil george, now promised that it will be escalated today and resolved by eob today (01 mar). Airtel, if you cant do anything which you promise to do, please take back your broadband and refund my full money i have paid for the connection, i better take a connection from act instead of you who makes fake promises.

Please take ACT broadband connection,
