I am using a corporate plan since 10 years and now i am in international roaming but still keeping the no. Active. Before moving out from india i checked with airtel, what is the process to keep my no. Active, they advised to retain the same plan and keep making the monthly payments. Every 3-6 months i get an increased bill saying some plan was made active on my mobile no. This is irritating and its totally depends on the customer care representative mood to consider this irregularity and correct it or not.

Kindly register this complaint on mobile service providers injustice with billing.

            Address: Ranga Reddy, Andhra Pradesh, 500049

            Customer relation number: [protected]

            I have registered for airtel secure from my second number which i use at home last year around october, 2017. Since then airtel plan has added charges along with the services for airtel secure rs.60. At the time of registration, they have asked me for the documents like phone purchased invoice number, screenshot of new mobile with imei shown on the screen, back of the phone. The phone was purchased from amazon and they have sent me a copy of invoice of which i have taken the screenshot and uploaded the documents. They have accepted it and my secure coverage is started. Almost after an year october 23rd my claimed handset got damaged and raised a request for claim 3-5 days later because they were asking for all the documents again which i have to collect and uploaded.

            1. They have called me and asked to update the description and provide me the invoice of the phone in claim along with screenshot of the phone’s front and back.
            I have uploaded the document invoice which i have uploaded at the time of registration and provided the screenshots with imei on the screen. They called me 4 times to upload where 4 agent got the exact statement asking me to upload the image of the phone front with complete edges visible.
            In description, when i have provided the details about the phone damage, they called me 5 different times asked the details like below mentioned:
            Who was using the phone?
            How was the phone damaged?
            What time the phone was damaged?
            Where did the incident took place?

            2. After providing the above details they started asking me to get the invoice copy where it has to contain the 2nd page of the invoice pdf. So, i raised a question in simple which they couldn’t or didn’t answer. My question was, “if the invoice should be provided with second page then why didn’t they object the same at the time subscription. How come they have accepted the subscription?”
            They tell me that the invoice should have the imei number which is not there on the invoice copy i have provided but it is required now after almost one year for processing. If not the claim will not be processed.
            So, i have reached out amazon from where i have purchased to get the copy and uploaded the same.

            3. Again they called me and said all the documents are good and they will be processed further for pick-up. But to my surprise they called me and started asking the documents of my wife for the same. And thats my denial as the phone purchase order is on my name, registered on my name, sim was activated on my name, used by me and my family at home. Complain is raised by me, why should i provide any documents related to my wife?
            They called me multiple times to simply say i understand and require the documents. It was my direct denial to provide any copy of the documents of my wife.

            This is happening almost for 20 days now and i am not sure if they have scheduled any pick up of the device to cover the insurance. Informed that this is hell process and should be clearly mentioned what details are expected from the customer in the description. The same documents that were accepted at the time of subscription, why they cannot be accepted at the time of claim, i am still in confusion. I have tried maximum to not be pissed off but.

                  Problem statement:

                  When contacted Amazon customer care, they mention clealry that Airtel has cancelled this services and also sent a mail to me regarding this.

                  When I contcted Airtel they were clueless and are not able to solve it depsite numerous reminders phone call and escalation to Nodal office.

                      I'm facing huge network issue with my airtel number since 2 weeks. It says "no service" 24/7.
                      After several complaints about the network issue, airtel has not resolved the issue, infact it is now very serious issue.

                        Hi,

                        I have got some 20-30 SMS's from Airtel for different customer-id's not pertaining to my account no. This is ridiculous. How can you bombard customer with unrelated messages?

                        When I called the customer care, the guy who spoke to me said its just a technical issue and it will happen and we are sorry. There is no resolution for this. When I asked him if that is the case then i want to disconnect my services permanently, then he replied saying, No No sir, i can raise a complaint and it will never happen again.

                        How in a world which is so advanced, such a silly mistake can happen where in you just bombard a customer with totally unrelated SMS's with the reason of technical error??

                        Owing to such a bad response, i have decided to go to consumer court and file a complaint.

                            I was using a airtel number that is [protected] and an inactive bank account and my pf account which was link to that number, i was using that sim card for a while and that number is allotted to someone else without giving me any information or any message. Its been almost 3 years i did require that number but recently when i need to get my pf amount i have to have the old registred mobile number as my company head quarter is in chennai and my company is taken over by other company and there is no point of contact and the regional pf office can not help as the pf was deposited in tamilnadu. The only options is to get back my old phone number or get the otp for pf.

                              My number is [protected]. I have been recharging every month & before 2 weeks also i recharged with 169 with validity of 28 days.

                              But its showing as "sim card registration failed".
                              I have emailed the complaint since customer care is not reachable & i haven't received any response yet.

                              I am reachable on my alternate number [protected].
                              Please fix this issue as soon as possible.

                                I have received a bill on 21st december 2018 for the period from 20th nov to 19th dec of rs.2854
                                In which it is written that i have made sms of rs 1600 from my number [protected].
                                I have checked that bill and the numbers also.. We have not done any sms from that number.
                                All the messages were done with in the gap of 20 mins continuously from day to whole night which a normal man cannot do. Please check the bill there is some error while generating bill.
                                I have called customer care also for the same thing.. But they are not listening any thing.
                                I have not done any messages so i cannot pay that amount.. Please check it rectify the bill and wave off excess bill amount. I have called many times to your customer care executives but they are not listening and continuously forcing me to pay the amount. They cant even send me itemised bill of m no: [protected]
                                Kindly do the needful at the earliest. I have attached bill copy for your reference.

                                        Hi Air Teal Tea,

                                        My mobile no is [protected], I recharged yesterday with Rs 10, but I'm unable to call anyone and unable to receive a call from other number.

                                        But when i sent a sms to the same no, I receive that message in my inbox.

                                        I have also called to 121 and 198 but I'm not getting an option to directly talk to Airtel customer care.

                                        I have very urgent to start this SIM, so...
