You have given the contact number of anil sharma ([protected]) stating that he is used the abused language.

I am highlighting this issue on social media also.

And, i am taking the legal action against you as you guys are harassing me to re-issue my sim.

I am consulting my lawyer and arranging a legal notice to you and mr. Sunil bharti.

There is no matter to exchanging more than 45 email with you if you and your team is not able to resolve my problem

        Airtel sim suddenly stopped working. I thought it was a phone problem but it’s not. I tried my friend’s airtel sim and it works fine. My sim is showing no network in a full network location. This is very inconvinent as i am travelling tomorrow and i have no means of communication at this point. This happened all of a sudden without any warning. This is most inconvinent and inrelaible.

              Back in June I had called airtel to check for a cheaper plan for the airtel internet services. Where I didnt opt for any advance plan of theirs I was tagged for a plan to pay close to 9, 000. After receiving sms that i had opted, i immediately called airtel customer care-they assured that I wont be charged and they will resolve this from the back end.

              To my shock within few days I was charged for 11 months using my credit card standing instruction mode, and since then its been a painful story. I have contacted their customer care, their net team ([protected]@airtel.com) who have sent me atleast 50 false promises by email and about 100 calls but not helping to return my hard earned money.

              Anyone reading this post, pls provide me their escalation contact, head who can look in to their apathy to return my money and also help this wont happen to any other customer.

                          I did a 498 rs recharge on my mobile number [protected] which failed and the money was deducted the next time it worked but the 498 rs deducted are still gone which i payed through slicepay card.

                          Please understand this recharge was done through slicepay card which is a pay later service and it worked the second time but my money was deducted twice as it failed the first time.

But on 30 Nov when I called him and asked him that other than hungama & Disney any other channels are activated which is paid he told me no sir only these 2 channels are activated... But this time they are saying that he must have not checked and provided u wrong information... So now tell me what to do in this case.

                              Prepaid intl roaming are of no use for me. I need to send SMS occasionally to India for banking needs. Available packs are costly for my way of spending and duration I want to stay abroad. As such even there is suff bal I can't send SMS. It should be my way of spending not of others. allow me to use any way till the bal is there. Cell# [protected].
                              I had locally recharged with RS 76 pack. Then with IR pack of RS 446. I thought I cud send SMS from Nepal to India. I made only one call to India. Adding monthly rental of RS.99 should be enough balance. Despite several times I cud not send SMS. My reason is why packs suitable for each customer needs are tailored wnd why we are forced to use the way Airtel or any telecom are forcing to spend the way they say. I want to use the way I like be it in voice or data or SMS. There is no pack which fits my needs. Hence forced to buy costly pack which I don't need. Hence I want my recharge d money the way I want to spend. No forceful selling required.
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                My name is kuldeep kumar and i work in the national youth co-operative society. 115 employees work in my office and 30 of them have been given airtel postpaid sim and the remaining employees are also considered to give such postpaid sim. But for the last one year, all employees are facing the problem of airtel network while we have installed airtel network booster in our office but still have to face the problem of the network. We have tried every possible thing for this but the problem is similar to that.
                                For this, we have also made calls on mail and 121 too, but any suitable solution is possible.

                                    My mobile number is[protected] and once a day, my sim network goes on. I have also called 121 times but there is no harm. A friend of mine uses vodafone and his sim runs very well and he never gets roaming and network problems.
                                    First, i used to understand airtel very well, but seeing my friend, i feel that i have been unable to use airtel for only 7 years in my absence.

                                      Not happy with the policies adopted by airtel stores-requested park street kolkata stores to change ownership to corporate but they converted the prepaid nos. To postpaid without our consent and now they have asked to submit the documents to convert to prepaid again and are insisting personal visit to the store to collect the simcards and are not willing to accept even the authorisation letter for collection of sims.
                                      They take too long to resolve a problem and lots of follow up through calls and e mails is required.
                                      Why should a person pay for postpaid if the nos. Are not used much?
                                      The app doesn't show the excess or due amounts for landlines as it used to show in 2016 till july.
                                      I am not happy with airtel the way they are harassing customers.
                                      To handle property matters authorised person can handle affairs then where is airtel?
