    I am facing issue my mobile number [protected] during recharge. I have started facing this issue since 2-3 months now. Earlier i was able to recharge my number.

    1. Unable to recharge from my airtel app. It is working fine with other airtel number.

    2. Unable to recharge for internet, paytm and other modes. It give message unsuccessful transaction. This is happening only with my mobile number ([protected]), it is working fine with other airtel number.

    3. I tried with other person asking him to recharge my number but it fails.

    4. I have gone to airtel store they tried to do frc from there device. But they also got failed transaction message.

    So in short i am unable to do any recharge from any thing (From-retailer/ online/airtel cutomer care). The outgoing facility of this no will be end on 1st dec, 2018. So look in to this with a high priority.

    I have contacted customer care, branch and even emailed but still my problem is not resolved. Kindly resolve at the earliest.

    My alternate number is [protected]

      This is regarding wrong information provided by airtel customer service executive when applying for a new dth multiple-connection for my home, i had this conversation on around 15th oct. 2018.

      The guy told me that i have to recharge my dth base pack @315 on the parent connection and @175 to the other three connections by which ill get 290 sd channels and 60 hd channels in all my connections.

      Now currently on time of recharge airtel customer service says that we do not have any plans like these and giving me expensive plans. Even they are not lodging a complaint also.

        Website: Billing issue

        Dear concern,

        I have been to srilanka & nepal in multiple journies. Before going only enquired with airtel executive about the international roaming activation & packages, executive clearly confirmed if i recharge with rs.145 inr. Then only roaming will get activated. But, i felt it was costly and instad of roaming activation i choose international plan on my prepaid no for roaming. During my visit to srilanka from feb'2018 to may'2018 there were no issues. But, airtel had activated international roaming on my post paid no. Without my knowledge either in any mode of prior communication (Call, message, sms or email) to me and claiming that had used internet only 24th, 29th & 30th of aug'2018". It is impossible as i do not know why do actvated the internet without my request, moreover i have fullfledged internet at my office & hotels where i worked and stayed respectively. I'm not willing to pay that amount as it is not my problem and not used any services of airtel during any abroad visit. Hence, i need full waiver of the billed amount and also airtel barred my mobile no. Even after paying my monthly rentals. It is not kind of business.
        Hope you will understand my issue and do me needful retaining my services. On my mobile

        [protected] - barred no
        [protected] - prepaid no currently in international roaming
        [protected] - local no to contact.

        Regards
        Praneel ravilla.

                            I got new airtel dongle as a replacement of tata photon on 24 nov 2018. I was told that device would get activated by tue 27 nov. I called airtel call centre on 28 nov for ensuring my verification is complete and the airtel rep told me it's done and i can use my device. I tried using it next day and found no internet, so called in again on 29 nov and the rep so called "rakesh" told me my data card number cannot be found in their system. And he sounded so rude on the call that when i asked his full name he said i am rakesh bhai and disconnected the call. Seems airtel call centre is now recruiting bhai's to bring revolution in call centre customer service.

                              Sir

                              These private companies are blackmailing their subscribers by giving whimsical directives regarding calls
                              Inspite of having sufficient balance they are barring customers from making outgoing calls and intimidating us to stop their services if we don't give in to their demands
                              Trai being autonomous body can not and must not remain mute spectator to this tamasha.

                                  Hello mam/sir
                                  I have sold a laptop on olx and the person who bought it gave me cheque that got bounced. I have only phone number of the person not the address.
                                  Kindly give me the address as in case of cheque bounce there is no fir we need to sent notice to his home.
                                  If i ask the person about the address he cuts the phone everytime when i call him
                                  I need to know the address from the company as the mobile number is registered with airtel

                                  The phone numbers of the person are:

                                    From around 1 month the airtel network specially the internet has become the worst of all, its always showing speed around 0. I thought temprary issue and u guys will address it by yourself but no progress at all.
                                    Please do something else we have to change our networks as who has time to wait for speed all the time. Please spend some time on working on real issues that creating new promo ad in every few months. Disappointed!!!
