    I had been offered free data by bharti airtel for my mobile no. However for the last one year they have been charging for data charges and then waiving them after i raise a complaint this has been going on, i fail to understand why airtel is upto such unfair practices. It is very frustrating. Please take up this issue with their higher ups and resolve.

          Very poor network at Shimoga. I have already raised 2 complaints regarding network issue here also in Facebook, but still its not resolved. Always you have given poor customer service.
          Signal strength is very poor in case of postpaid especially!!!
          Please take necessary steps, or i ensure that all airtel users nearby me are shifted to other network.

            I have been using my airtel number for the past 9 years. Recently i changed it to prepaid as i moved out of india. Now the number is deactivated and i can not reach out to any customer care person. I need the number to be activated as it is urgent. Please help.
            I can not reach out to customer care people.

            I sent mail to [protected]@in. Airtel.com. There was a reply asking my parents to visit the airtel centre in 15 days to pay rs.20. My friend paid rs.65 today to my prepaid number online through banking service.

            Reply from the airtel customer care is below:


            At the outset, i regret the inconvenience caused to you.

            We regret to inform you that services for your airtel mobile were discontinued on 24/11/2018 due to no usage found on your number in last 90 days.

Beyond 90 days period, in case of no usage, charges of rs. 20/- per month are deducted from main account towards service extension for 30 days.

              I received message from the airtel india that i have to pay for all rounder recharge that cost 23 rupees for expanding my validity for using internet, message and calling as i didn't use internet and message service and still have to pay for it and not only that they don't have any other options also for only calling recharge. Why i have to pay another 23 for just increasing my validity??? I do recharge on this number according to my needs but now i have to recharge every month for no reason. Before some time airtel sent us a messages while checking balance "validity of your number is till 2032" simply they are doing buisness and looting peoples. Really great cheating.

              Please help me out

              Thanking you

                Resp. Sir/mdm,
                With respect to the above cited subject, i would like to draw your kind attention to the inconvenience related to the data offer. Myself mr. Santosh patil. Have recharged my airtel number with rs. 92. I recharged this offer by following airtel offers at *121# and also airtel assistance number 121 (Messaged airtel). But yet i have not received the 6 gb data. Even i have communicated and complained at 198. But i didn't get the satisfactory explanation. Plz look into the matter and either credit that so claimed 6gb data as per the offer or refund the deducted amount to the main account balance of my mobile number

                    Sir/ madam,
                    I have recharged with airtel last month with a 28 days validity pack on 17th of november which was going to end on 15th of december which included benefits as following particulars :
                    Free voice call
                    1 gb data per day
                    100 free sms

                    Despite the validity was going to end on 15th of december i have not been able to use the internet functionality right from 27th of october even after trying to reboot and refresh pertaining it to be a network coverage or network traffic issue. The calls and messages were working but there was no information on charges getting deducted even before the ending validity despite of having the delivery reports turned on. There was no alert sent to me that charges are being deduced and i continued the usage having this in mind that it was going to end on 15th of december. There was around 70 rupees in my account balance and now this morning when i checked i got to know that this has gone down to 36.14 rupees without information. No messages or alerts have been sent that the charges are getting deducted and no information on why is it getting deducted. For the sake of information and complaint when i called the customer care they talked to me abruptly making me wait for a long duration just for transferring the call from one individual to another. They both talked abruptly without sense of they were having a conversation with a customer. When i asked for the alerts to be sent they said we don't have the information of that. And because of not having the information when i asked them for refund they shouted and hung the call.

                    By any means a network service provider is not supposed to behave in this manner to their customers. This has even happened before and have got the refund but they are not transferring it this time and escalating the issues without even providing satisfactory service to the customer. If this persists i am going to discontinue the service with airtel and port out to another service provider.

                    Hoping to get a soon reply and a help.

                    Thank you.

                      I have been converted my airtel post paid number to airtel prepaid number since last 7 to 8 month ago. Till then i could not able to recharge my prepaid number through online. I have called multiple times during last two months to customer care to resolve this issue, but no solution from their end. Even i mailed to [protected]@airtel.in several time, but no reply from their end.
                      But today my frustration level exceed as i tried 20 to 25 times to call customer care but line was not connected to customer care executive. It looks like airtel has no value for prepaid customer.

                      I tried to reach your service outlet, but they dont have resolution. I am really frustrated.
                      So looking for a quick resolution else i will port my no to other operator.

                            See for the past one or two months not sure about the duration, i am unable to send sms from my airtel number [protected], though i can receive sms from the same number. It is really annoying why the big network is troubling a lot. I am totally dissatisfied with your # service. # of this complaint. Asking for more than 350 words, what is the use?? Kindly help me to get rid of this issue.

                              Airtel, especially fun zone service, is a big thief and robber who is always cutting my balance every week without my agreement. Whenever i call the number to deactivate, theif and robber service reply me that there is no active service in your number. That is why, that service got another name called lair service beside thief and robber. So airtel moble service, particularly fun zone service, is a big thief, robber and lair.
                              At last, i deeply regret to ask how i can stop the thief, robber, and lair, thief, robber and lair service.

                                    My airtel number [protected] is not able to get any network and showing no service while other airtel number near me getting good network coverage. My home network is muzaffarnagar and area pin code is 251318. I am not able to call anywhere even the customer care itself. When i call airtel customer care from other airtel number then they simply said that they don't have any idea about my problem and instruct me to go to nearest airtel service center.

                                        On 3rd december i got a call from [protected] and the person claimed to be talking from airtel digital tv. After confirming my customer id and other details, he told me an offer to subscribe for astrovaani channel for a period of 1 month for a rental of rs 45. After patiently listening to his offer, i politely denied and asked him not to subscribe this channel. After once again confirming my decision, he disconnected the call.
                                        On same day at 10:20pm i got an sms from airtel dth stating "astrovaani 1m has been activated on your airtel digitaltv id *. You would be charged rs. 45.0"
                                        Now, even after i clearly denied to accept this offer, if you still go ahead and charge me for it, this is a robbery. I know there will be people who wouldn't bother reading their smss and who would never be able to find out your such dirty tricks and these are exactly the kind of people that you are targeting. But i won't stand any of this. All of this only and only proves your dishonesty towards your customers and how you only want to extract money out of them. I would not hesitate even once to get my airtel dth connection disconnected now.
