Airtel is claiming fastest 4g speed!!! But the fact is now this is worst in my locality. Unable use 100 mb in a day. And my plan is of 100gb. All wastage of money. I've raised complaint 2 times. But closed without resolving. Very sad. My last complaint ref no. Was[protected].

    That day is not so far when Airtel the no 1 operator becomes 0 operator and loose it's customers and while business.
    I[censored] have little bit shame then recharge from your side.
    Really shame on you greedy hungry beggars ashwini, kunain, amreen, vaishnav, arjun, pradeep, kaveri for eating the benefits of rhe customers as you people don't have self respect and respect for your parents then how you people give respect to the customers. You people have made the mentality to disturb the customers and nothing else. Now the situation is that Airtel and U people become thief fraud to loot the customers. Once again you shown your poor fraud mentality to loot the customers and don't have guts to earn your income. If you have little bit self respect and respect for your parents and for the customers and llittle bit shame then reduce my call rates from your end. Earlier also many times Airtel from its side reduced my call rates to 25 P/M for 3 months time period everytime. If you have little bit shame and respect for the customers then reduce the call rates from your end instead of making the nonsense and bull [censored] excuses.

          It's been so frustrating to take a simple sim from airtel. I have vodafone and jio numbers but never ever had such a problem. Not sure if i did a blunder opting for an aitel number.

          New sim asked for verification numbers and i have two numbers. Got the code with an sms stating verified and to call 59059. When i call it shows "mobile network not available" tried changing mobiles, tried changing manual network, all as per shopkeeper and airtel customer service guys, but no-one knows what to do
          Airtel customer representatives send to shopkeeper and shopkeeper asks to call verification. Verification guys say call 121. And 121 doesn't have any such issue on thier list and you listen to the automated message with no solution. Feels like a sin having opted to take an airtel connection.

          Its been two days now. If you guys can do something am available on my alternate number [protected].

          New sim card number purchased:[protected]

            I tried contacting them through call but its not working. I cant reach to them. Also there is no online customer support where i can contact them. Its the third time and i want to know on which basis they are locking my account.

              My mobile no [protected] is linked to my dth (3) accounts and also airtel wifi. It is to complaint that fixed landline no.[protected] was disconnected (Only broadband) and later on in late sept we had requested for the line to be disconnected. I received three calls a day to renew my number as they would offer me a good package. My father is no more and my mother has been harassed constantly for non payment of bills.
              I was rung up by the call centre that the phone would automatically be disconnected on 10 nov 2018 and it was free.

                          Dear sir, i have sent the port message more than six times. But airtel is not sending upc. Though they have wanted to know the cause of my leaving airtel.
                          I know, this is the right of a customer. Please take necessary action against airtel for their intentional inconvenience. Otherwise people will not believe in the mobile portability. I believe proper steps will be taken by you.

                              Website: airtel

                              My airtel postpaid mobile [protected], which was ported from Vodafone to Airtel about 2 years back, had been functioning smoothly till 19.01.2019. However, all on a sudden from 20.01.2019 onwards, the SIM service stopped working without any indications. At first instance, I tried using a different phone but of nil result. On Monday, i.e., on 21.01.2019, I went to the airtel customer care at YMCA Cross Road, Calicut (contact no.: [protected]) and as their entire exercise to rectify the old SIM was futile, they issued a new SIM after informing that the same would be activated within a period of 4-5 hrs However, as the same was not successful, on the very next day, i.e., on 22.01.2019, I again visited the same customer care and informed them about the situation. They again reissued another SIM and registered my KYC afresh along with a new photo, which was taken then and there itself. However, even after a gap of two days, the SIM was not activated. As I could not come out of the office, I send another person on 24.01.2019 along with my Aadhar ID card (original), alternate contact number, address slip and the reissued SIM for rectifying the issue. It's just disgusting to inform you that none of your staff at the same customer centre has shown the courtesy to contact me over the phone to appraise the issue. As there is no response from your staffs' side, I contacted them at the above said phone number around 5.30 PM. To my surprise, the staff who took the phone advised me to again come to the office for re-registration. At this point, I also got irritated and informed him that only on 22.01.2019 I updated my ID and photograph. He informed to revert, but till now no response.

                              Sir, I want to know is this the way your customers are treated. I am without my contact number for the last 5 days and suffering both mentally as well as financially as this number ([protected]) is utilised for many of the online financial purposes.

                              I have never got a proper updated reply from your staff and my phone is dead for more than 5 days as of now. This is not acceptable since this is the primary number I have been utilizing. I have not been able to do any of the online transactions and also missed various important calls from my Top Officials, which tarnished my name and also created issues on my professional front.

                              Since this type of casual approach by your staff is not at all acceptable, it is high time and also request some higher authorities from airtel to look into the matter. If this way casual approach and poor service is your staffs' main identity, I am sorry to inform you that I may resort to some other mode to redress my issue.

                              Regards,

                                  I am one of the airtel subscriber, using pre-paid connection since one year. Recently i have been receiving messages from airtel your outgoing / incoming will be stopped, if you are not recharge within the particular period and some amount will be recovered from your balance available to continue your services. What is this non-scence creating by telecom providers. Is there any option / facility given by trai for stopping services even i have sufficient balance in my account. Is it compulsory to recharge even i have balance and telecom service provider can recover amount from the service receiver account to continue services. Please let me know is there any provision / option / facility / authority given by trai for their blackmailing for getting revenue from customers unnecessarily to enable me to continue with the service provider.

                                        Provided portal for pack selection not user friendly in compare to dish tv. Frequently logout automatically. After chanel selection when you try to submit, id automatically logout.
                                        No delete and edit option available. After pack selection no option for delet and edit. No search option available for chanel selection. I could have submitted my pack after trying three times. Two times logout during channel selection. Totally tedious. I think deliberately not given these option as costumer not able to create their own pack. My suggestion portal should be user friendly. A common man can choice their own pack.
