      Website: Network down.Crippled to the core.

      My airtel account no.: [protected]. Landline no.:[protected]. The network is so crippled that it is not working for the past 4 days. All attempts to contact the service provider through calling the service engineer and other staff with no.:[protected] and[protected] utterly failed. Customer service seems very poor. We have no alternate than choose a better service provider. Will airtel attend?

        I have recently got to know that airtel have been stealing my broadband data around 10+ gb a day and they want me to pay for me these people are cheating and when i confront these people they blame me saying that i'm using it even though i have given access to certain devices and i was not even in the town and yet i was robbed and they didn't go # about it. Since the bill recycled the connection was dead for 2 days and yet the data was being consumed and in 7 days including the dead connection data they said i used 89gb data which means excluding 2 dead connection dates i should use more than 20gb a day to spend 89gb data. Here is a resent data usage in the name of fake upload and download stats they are stealing from consumers it's a white collar crime.

        Airtel isn't doing anything about this I've complained about this and they are blaming it on me now ### they don't admit there mistakes and they won't even consider fixing it.

          Hi
          Respected sir/madam

          I am writing to inform you that i have network & incoming calls & incoming messages issue since may 2018. I have swapped the sim card three times from my nearest airtel store. But the issue is same i have escalated issue from past six months. I have complained many times to customer service but no response has been received so i had to bear the loss of of 3500 to change the number on important documents. So i request you to take a look on priority basis as i am your customer for three years. Please waive off the amount in bill and restart my number.

          Thanks
          With regards
          Bhupendra

                    It is painful to say that at every dth tv recharge, an amount is directly deposited in airtel wallet instead of dth tv recharge while payment is made through airtel aap.
                    I have not add the money in airtel wallet but how can it is possible wrongly the money is adding in wallet at every dth tv recharge. This problem is persist from two months.
                    Yesterday i have contacted customers care, instead of resolving the problem, they have freezes my account /wallet amount. And asked the most secure informations like date of birth etc.
                    Kindly convey the message whether we continue airtel services or go for other choices. Now it is a matter of confusion to treat the services helpful or cheating.

                      How can a company barred incoming calls of a customer. I didn't receive any messages before they barred my incoming calls. I got a message stating you have a missed call. In order to check recharge your account t. I missed a call from HR of my new company. Who is responsible for this and if what if they would have thought I am not in interested in joining. This step of barring incoming calls is truly not tolreable. Please take a strict action on this. Also I am going to take forward this matter to TRAI. When other companies are not following this how airtel is doing this.

                          I am mohd syeed from jk my no is [protected]. Currently in visva bharati university. I am facing internet problem from 12 dec 2018. I complained but it was not resolved. I changed mobile phone visited airtel store talked to costomer care but nothing happen. They tried everything but the problem is same. I can see 4g sign on my mobile but it is not browsing. I replaced the sim 2 times in the year. I surrender and lost all the trust from airtel. No one solved my promblem and the immature system. Engineets are working in airtel they are giving the silly xcuses and removes the complaint. I think airtel shpuld close the chapter of airtel because they can not effort the services as compared to other networks. They are wasting my time and moey. I lost hundreds of money without using airtel. What the hell it is.

                              I have ported my number [protected] from reliance jio to airtel. But there is no signal in that sim and my old number has stopped already. I am loosing my business calls and i am going to consumer forum against it.
                              This is such a bad service for postpaid users like us. We wholly depend on our phone.

                              Your associates keep bugging us about your plans and finally when we try it we have to face this. I urge you to start my number immediately

                                    Greetings,

                                    Complaint 1:
                                    Recently we are being forced to switch to v-fiber saying that it is compulsory.
                                    We can't switch because of 2 reasons which are:
                                    1) the landline number will change again
                                    2) our current 799 plan is not available

                                    Complaint 2:
                                    Our bill along with gst should be rs.943 but it is coming at rs.970-1050. We can't even get a detailed view of the bill because password is not available.

                                    Please refer to the above referred problems as early as possible.
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                      I recharged my digital tv account number with inr 3450 for full 1 year subscription of airtel digital tv combo pack on 5th sept'2018.
                                      My airtel dth customer id is : [protected].

                                      All of sudden from 1st nov'2018 my airtel dth services stopped due to insufficient balance, i called airtel call center more than 10 times but they didn't resolved the issue, finally after sharing whole details including my confidential information of bank account statement with online transfer proof through paytm my services resumed from 28th nov' 2018.

                                      Now airtel dth services actual goof-up starts : from 8th jan'2019 onwards again my airtel dth services stopped and now all of sudden my airtel dth customer id : [protected] changed to [protected] which is registered on someone mr gupta's name to whom i don't know.

                                      Again i tried to contact airtel call center, as usual no response and solution, i wrote an email on 9th jan'2019 but so-far there is not even acknowledgement of the issue received from airtel dth staff.

                                        Today i received a call from an airtel digital tv executive. She told me about some channel called relam chel and asked me to activate it. I clearly told her i dont want this channel multiple times. But she repeatedly kept telling me about the channel. After that i hang up the phone. After some time, i received a message from airtel that the channel has been activated and rs 39 has been deducted from my balance.
                                        I want to know why airtel is commiting such frauds.
                                        This is very disgusting.
