Hi - i was using the number [protected] for the past 7 years and i had to be out of the country recently and i had international roaming enabled on it so that i can receive messages while being abroad at least. On 25-sep-2018 the sim was deactivated without any notification neither through sms nor email. Now they are asking that i should personally visit the airtel center to reactivate the sim that they had illegally deactivated.

              ₹25 has been deducted from my airtel number [protected] at 03:18 AM on 6th of October'18 when I was sleeping for some STARSTRUCK service about which I have no idea.
              After calling the customer care they deactivated the service and said that money will be refunded within 48hrs but no money has been refunded yet.
              Kindly refund as soon as possible in my number.

                    The above number was closed by me on phone request on 20 july 2018 and was duly confirmed by the executive, i was asked to clear the dues of rs 360 which was cleared by me. Now they are harassing me to pay rs 949.54 as the number is not closed by them. I have not used any services after 20 july 18. The consistent harassment on phone continues from airtel call centre and no resolution is visible in this case.

                    Inspite of 7 days passing and continuous harassment on recorded line SMS and phone calls no resolution to my complaint. It seems Airtel cares a Damn to such issues. The complaint on 20 July is recorded with them still the attitude.

                      1. My post paid bill came with a free child connection which had the facilities of free calling & 100 sms free both local & on national roaming. However despite their self advertised scheme airtel for the past almost one year had been charging me a miniscule amount o[censored]pto rs 1/- for sms on the child number. While the amount is miniscule, it is a constant irritant, especially when your repeated requests to rectify the wrong bills is not paid heed to.
                      2. I downgraded my airtel postpaid plan to rs 649/- around 21/22 sep 2018. Ever since then, my amazon prime has stopped streaming & it gives me a prompt to subscribe to the service while the my airtel app still shows it as subscribed upto 30 aug 2019. Despite repeated requests made to the customer service executive & their supervisor, each time i call i'm told that the problem is at airtel's end & will be resolved shortly. I'm told to wait for 48/ 72 hrs after which too the issue remains unresolved.
                      3. I feel i've made a mistake by bearing airtel for so long. I'm planning to go for mnp to change my service provider. Can someone tell me whether the child number will get transferred to some other service provider too. Payment of additional money is not a problem, but i want to keep both numbers.

                        I ve been using my new Airtel sim since last 8 months. It was working fine but since last 5 days I'm not able to recharge my number. I ve called customer care, visited airtel store and even they are not able to resolve my problem. A customer executive told me to recharge with a topup. Then it will work fine. I did that and normal topups are benefited in my account. But whenever i try to do special recharge it always rejected by Airtel. Around 1500 rs of mine are stuck in different payment gateways. Worst ever experience till now.
                        I ve tired using myairtel app, airtel.in, paytm, amazonpay, phonepay, Lapu sims, airtel retailer but noone knows what is the problem. Worst customer support.

                            I have been using airtel for past 10 years and never delayed or defaulted payment. Bill for rs 588 was due on 14th september against my post paid. I made payment against my card on 14th september in fact for rs 648 on 14th september.
                            This has not been accounted by airtel and they have been showing outstanding against my account. They desired a scanned copy of my card statement - which was also sent. This clearly showed payment made to airtel and there is only one company named airtel in india/ world.
                            I have made more than 5 complaints to account this correctly with airtel which has not been resolved even after 27 days.
                            My services have been terminated, due to no fault of consumer.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                I'm using airtel postpaid connection since last 5-6 months and the internet is slower than a 3g connection here even though i'm on full 4g coverage. I don't get the internet speed of even 1mbps. I've been complaining since last 4-5 months. And they themselves say that the network condition is bad here yet they aren't fixing it. They are charging me the bill for 4g internet too but what's the point if i'm not able to use 4g as 4g and not as 3g or 2g. I say this is a scammer in the name of 4g. And it's not just me everyone here has complaints regarding airtel here. Please look into the matter.

                                  I am an airtel customer from around 10 years.

                                  Since last month 3 times it has deducted 20 rupees each time, total 60 rupees. And the message that i receive is regarding the primezone, i don't know what this prime zone is and when i try to contact customer care they say they cannot help as it is from the phone.

                                  But this is ridiculous, the money should be reverted to my account. When they are saying that this is not a service activated then how come they can deduct the money.
                                  Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                  So far no message or action taken. I was given a week's time but no action.

                                    I am writing with sheer disappointment and the inability of officers from airtel to provide a satisfactory response or evidence to my complaint.

                                    To cut a long story short, i had requested one of my mobile numbers to be ported out to another operator. The request was declined on the premise that the number is not 90 days old. However this is incorrect.
                                    The number was changed from prepaid to postpaid but has always been with airtel on postpaid before being made prepaid for a brief period of time. Thus by all means the number has been with airtel for many many years and has never been ported out ever.

                                    All i want is a confirmation that this understanding is correct or not. If this is the case can i be provided with evidence of such a rule please?

                                    By declining my port request airtel seems to be devising their own rules and refusing to approve the porting request.

                                    They have also not provided a complaint number to the various emails that i have sent raising this issue.

                                      I’ve been complaining/e-mailing airtel for the past few years about our poor local/hometown airtel 4g internet as well as drop in call services. Till now they have provided a reliable solution and they only keep on replying with the same excuses. Nothing has been done to improve the network services. Please take this issue seriously airtel.

                                      Moreover as per their reply the Airtel claimed that Airtel signal is good in outdoor and the problem I’m facing is due to poor indoor coverage. However it can be well observed that signal coverage is poor in the main bazar area as well as whole area of the town, the problem is not the indoor but the real problem is outdoor coverage only.

                                        Mobile that an a lot or rs 49/ was deduced

                                        For video parlour for which i didn't ask for

                                        It's surprising how this air tel deducted on

                                        Their own interest. It's against rules. It's a serious objection from my side. I want to refund my money and a explanation is required from air tel
