Airtel Complaints & Reviews

First and foremost "airtel sucks" when it comes to complaints and service. The coverage in my area has been then worst and for the last 6 months i have been promised they are putting u a tower. Out of sheer frustration i have ported to vodafone..
The technicians keep strolling and dont bother to attend to the complaints. Once i advised them of changing over to vodafone a million calls have come. I asked the scavengers to come home to see the witness the coverage. One braveheart came up from airtel - manu and agreed the strength is only 10 when it should be atleast 50-60..
Money swindlers.. I have decided not pay airtel and let then call me forever...

I am using [protected] airtel prepaid no.. Today, 23rd october 2018 i received a customer persons call from [protected] at 2.54 pm.. Named mayuri (Doughted) as she was calling for postpaid. I was not unable to attend and told her i had traveled whole night.. She asked my other postpaid no. Which i am not bound to tell her.. After that she had behaved very badly, raw tone and spoken slangs to me
I am very disappointed that airtel appointings this kind of people for there customer help...
Please look into this matter

Today i learned that the talk time top up plans have been removed and i have to top up every month to keep talk time validity.

I strongly oppose such decision as i am using basic model and i have same basic feature phones for my parents and i only top up them when their talk times are used, this may take sometime 1 month or 2 month or 3 month. For me also its same.

The plans you brought now are headache and i have to keep remind and top up for each month.

Please bring back talk time top ups and can be used until talk time amount are used.

As my airtel sim blocked & asked for puc code, contacted airtel customer code and they asked me to visit store room. Went to the store room this morning, every customer was approaching executives, i also. And then they asked me to get the token and sit and wait. They called out token no.1 & 2. I was waiting for my turn. Many customer did not get the token, they directly approached the executives who came after me. I got up and one of the executive told me to wait again. They have never called me still 10:30. I wasted my time got fed up with airtel. Y didn't you cal me? Follow any best method.

Y did you asked me to sit and wait???
My dress code - wearing shorts and tshirt???
Observed people who came well dressed served first

To day I got a message from Airtel that Rs.75/- was deducted from my account for activation of HOT CHILLES. I deactivated it by SMS. But the amount Rs.75/- was not refunded.Offering value added services without demand from the customers is an offence. this type of pick pocketing from customers should legally be checked by authorities concerned.

Dear sir,

My mobile no. [protected] has been ported out from vodafone yesterday at 11: 30 pm and till now that number is not activated from airtel. I have called you again and again to your customer care but i always replied that your verification is pending and wait for one hour but they did not define that what kind of verification is pending, i have already verified by your customer care.

I have spent more than 16 hours on which there is no network on my mobile and there is a number of calls which are very crucial to me to attend but cant help it.

I am requesting you to please resolve it as soon as possible.

I have an airtel broadband connect for which i have failed to pay the bill for 2 months, as our family has been in an accident. With all the chaos in hand, we have missed paying the bill. For which the connection was removed, on top of that a lady from airtel called us threatened that she will be sending people over to our house and also accused us of cheating, if she had checked our airtel bill records, we have over 6 connections for over 8 years. But this is how they treat their customers. This happened on 23/10/2018 around 10 am.

And i am facing too much of service issue when i call customer care i will not get a proper response your customer care people will say to visit nearest airtel out let and also when i visit the nearest outlet there also i will not get a solution again they say me to call customer care for the solution i don't know what to do, i am blank. I hope this mail will give a solution to my problem.

If i am not getting any response or solution then i don't have any option i need to change my service provider.

So, please check and do the needful.

Airtel decided to bar my numbers based on a purported complaint about dnd violation. Without any warning or information.
Now, when i have been following up on this with their ndnc team, they cannot seem to move beyond "share a documented evidence that the complainant registered his/her number to receive such communication". The problem is that we do not know who the complainant is, or what his/her number is. That information is not forthcoming from airtel's ndnc team.
Till date, more than 10 email communications have been shared between us. I have given valid, logical reasons why communication with the purported complainant cannot be construed as unsolicited communication, but to no avail.
What surprises me is that this incident is playing out where i am being punished without knowing details of the crime i am supposed to have committed. Incredible.
Will someone from airtel's ndnc team be kind enough to respond? I am tired of receiving boilerplate email templates as replies.

I tried to recharge my mobile using my airtel app for the amount 558, while doing this without any intimation and notification they have deducted the amount two times which is rs 1116,

I tried to call airtel but you know how difficult it is to get connected after doing all ivr drama they disconnected my calls

I got a message stating that they will refund the amount in 7 working days, what!!! 7 working days are you guys joking, please understand the pain rs 1116 is big amount for us.

Please fix my issue asap mobile number [protected]

Hello
I recently got ported to your company airtel... After receiving call from your customer care.. At that time. They were kind and humble to talk.
On same name we have 3 numbers.. Bill was paid for two numbers.. As we received receipt of those two numbers...
Some 4days back i received call from your customer care number is kajal.. As am busy in the morning.. I asked her.. Is it urgent to talk or we will talk later, she with out intimating the thing, she was goes on explaining the bill amount. I said we will talk later, and the response was so rude that she want to talk right away. When use the number, make clear the bill.. That was really rude.. This is not the way to have word with customer..
Today same girl called and asked for same thing.. I informed her, which number is not paid call that number and inform.. She is asking me the number. And in fraction of second she called me back with same topic...
I got pissed and said let me talk to your manager..
And the manager response is 599key liye mey kya bath karu. Rakho phone..
My concern is if senior was not bothered what customer want to speak, and the teller caller girl is to rude in talking..
They saying they never forced us to port, u can port to whichever network u want. After paying the bill..
Is this way customer recives respect, value for the money..

Pl resolve it i shall be very thankful to you for this great act of kindness.

Am using airtel 4g sim, suddenly the sim is not working from 10/22/2018 without any intimation. It got disconnected when am using itself.

Restarted phone several times, changed sim slot, tried it in another phone, tried stopping other services like wifi. All of no use.
All this without any intimation from airtel. I was about to receive important calls and messages on this number. Lost peace of mind due to this carelesness.

I would like signals on my phone be restored as soon as possible

I had claimed my airtel secure claim on 24th august 2018, my claim was turned down on 18th september on the basis that i was not able to submit documents by 21 days after informing about the claim but the issue is that i had submitted the documents and also that i had tried to contact them regarding it but i was too busy in work as i was out of station and also that the connectivity here was poor. I am immensely disheartened with the insurance provided by airtel.
