cug sim not working

Address: Mysore, Karnataka, 570002

My cug sim is not getting detected on my s8 handset. It shows the network sign but it displays the message "unable to connect. Try later". I have tried changing the sim cards for the same number. But it is still not working. The sim is working in other phones but not in my phone. The slot 2 of my phone in which i am using my airtel cug is working fine because all other sims are detected and working in that same slot.

Pls help...

                  For past three months despite timely payment of the airtel mobile bill, i have been harassed by airtel with sms, calls asking for payment. I have shared proofs to their appellate, nodal officer who send in their apology but don't correct their system. Their contact centre accepts that their system is not efficient to track actual status!
                  I want airtel to ensure they stop harassing a loyal customer who settles payments every 15th of the month when the due date is 21st of the month. Also to apologize for this monthly harassment and assure this will not happen ever again. A customer should not be suffering because of poor systems and processes of airtel.

                    Airtel people offering broadband services but after made payment (Rs 2474) no response even after so many followups (Name: shekar contact no: [protected]). Tried to raise a complaint to airtel[protected] but call executive saying that we are transferring your call to supervisor but they are disconnecting my calls. I tried more than 10 times and wasted 3hrs + time. After taking my details along with caf no when i say call is about complaint they are continuously disconnecting my calls. I made payment on 6th oct 2018 but today date is 18th oct 2018. As their rules and info executive (Shekar) given they have to complete the broadband connectivity within 2 days but after 12 days also no response. Worst service proving by airtel and their employees.

                      Hello team,

                      I raised a relocation request of my airtel fixed/broadband connection on date oct 13, 2018 from pune to zirakpur. The service request number is[protected]. Two days ago, i got a call that the new address is not feasible for airtel connection. So, i raised a disconnection + refund request. The representative on the call took the disconnection request but he was unsure about the refund.

                      From yesterday, i called airtel customer care multiple times, but still don't have any clear answer.

                      Due to incapability of airtel of not providing the connection, why should i pay for the services which i am not using.

                      Now, i want to transfer this connection to my friend's name to a new address. I gave them the friend's address but didn't hear from them.

                      I gave them 3 options:
                      1. Relocation of my connection to my new location - this is not possible due to incapability of airtel.
                      2. Disconnect the connection and provide the refund of remaining period.
                      3. Transfer the ownership and address to my friend's name and address.

                      I am relocating from current location on oct 21st and still waiting for the answer.

                        My airtel digital tv customer care id is [protected] & my registered mobile number is [protected]. The name of connection holder is mr. Ashutosh mandal. I had standars set top box and after warranty period is over the box was damaged so i complained about that on airtel customer care. They assured me to replace my box with rs 350/- within 24 hours. The technician came with an hd box (Not standard box). I further complained that i was told standard box will be exchanged. But they told me about insufficient storage of standard box. So i took the hd box with rs 599/-. As per airtel company for the first 2 months i would get all hd channels free of cost though i didn't get single one. I complained them again & again about my issue. Senior representative talked to me twice that my issue will be resolved within 24 working hours and he assured me that i'ld surely get free hd channels for 2 months. But now 24 hours is over and till i'm unable to watch any hd channel on my tv. I complained again and again but my problem was not resolved.

                            This refers to the above subject, for six months i have been requesting porting but i am being harassed for the past six months and they are not approving porting request on one frivolous reason or the other, the following points are worth noting

                            1) only clerical level people are attending and calling day and night for flimsy talks, rather than focusing on doing their job, on being asked about the relevant thing they do no have any clue on how the process operates, neither are they willing to listen
                            2) to our surprise they do not even seem to know the name of their superiors and refuse to connect to any senior person or provide their contact
                            3) the enterprise claims that it is not a corporate number to my surprise as per the trailing mail
                            4) further surprising is the fact 121 claims the it is corporate number as per the trailing mail

                            Does any one have a clue on what is happening or unable to cope with the competition you have started harassing the customers

                            People at your company informed that ms neetu yadav, phone number [protected], who never picks up the phone and even she picks up talks and behaves in an unruly manner, becoming impossible for me or even people from airtel galary to talk to the so called relationship manager

                            Thus all possible gentle approaches and request have been made but the more humble to are the greater the harassment

                            Notwithstanding above noc was arranged, however on flimsy grounds again the same was rejected

                            Can you please let us know how much money you want to fleas and also want you want to stop harassment

                              I have recharged it but got validity of 11 days only

                              Now i have asked the airtel customer service to check they say
                              It was a bulk sms sent to many customers
                              If any offer is given through sms we should call them and confirm whether the offer is applicable to us or not

                                After showing all the fake ads claiming to be the fastest network with max coverage, on using the service you can clearly see that Airtel has one of the worst network coverage!

                                Inspite of raising complaints multiple time, Airtel just refuse to attend to the concern and keep saying they are working on the issue without giving me any timelines or commitments.

                                Recently incoming calls to my number were barred without any reason because of which I lost 3 important business deals that could have gotten me INR 10+ crores.
                                On complaining again, the Nodal team customer service reps are absolutely unapologetic and indirectly hinted that Airtel does not care for it's customers and it's unethical practices!

                                All I asked was to give a firm timeline to address my concern or waive of my bill till the time issues are fixed.

                                I should ideally demand compensation for the business I lost because of the termination of services promised to be without any reason or notification.

                                  Hello i have recharged my airtel digital tv account. It is still repeatedly showing a negative balance. Inspite of choosing the highest package no channel is being displayed.

                                  This has been a case with airtel since long. There has been no resolution provided by airtel regarding this.

                                  I dont know how to resolve this issue. Please help me take this forward.

                                    Fed up calling this stupid airtel dish tv people and explaining same story for everyone as if it is like epic story. I am facing video problem from past 1 week and tried to get hep from them but still my issue is not solved.
                                    These people became more commercial they will try to make as much as money as they can. For any issue they will charge 500 finally by saying we have done 150 and then 250 and then 150 etc... And if we are ready give them how much they wish then they will respond if not they don't even bother about customer issues.
                                    These people also give suggestion to us like wait for 3 months or 6 months with same issue without providing resolution.
                                    And also based on our fate they will do charges bargaining as if like we are in vegetable market.
                                    Also they will not refund any amount if we don't want to continue with them. And they cannot even update the address without bribing them.
