    I choose to upgrade my airtel postpaid plan to avail 4g services. But the network is too slow. I tried fr rom my home as well as office, where the coverage is shown as full. Really disappointed with the service. Being an airtel user for the past 12 years, now i was being forced to switch away from airtel.
    The maximum download speed was less than 2mbps, which is too low compared to other 4g service providers.

      Hello,

      As per the conversation on 1/11/2018 at 3.30pm with mr. Abhishek, mobile number of (Ndnc) [protected].

      I am dealing in real estate firm goodwin landmark. I had got the customers from local web sites market like olx, quikr, magic brickes, 99 acres.
      I am calling the customers and than chat with them on whats up, and sending sms, message of my office address and schemes of plots.

      In this i never send sms messages directly to any of dnd or ndnc customers. I am only sending to the people who want my office address.

      I am actually using my personal number not for any commercial usage.

      I would be using this number for long time and i was not knowing for such activity.

      I was not sending any unwanted sms message to any of my customer/friends/relatives.. I am sending them sms message only for my office address and not any illegal activity.

      I would be requesting to active my mobile numbers [protected] and [protected] as early as possible.

      I will not do any sms message or call to any of my customer onwords.

      Please see the attached images as of now i had send the sms messages you will not any illegal or unwanted message not send by me.
      Thanks
      Regards

      The real estate firm Goodwin Landmark, where you are working, is being reported as fraudulent by many people and is widely being avoided. Multiple fraud complaints have already been registered against this firm at Pimpri Police Station, which could be the reason you number get disconnected.

        Dear airtel team,

        Despite having registered for dnd vide registration# i[protected], i'm getting numerous marketing calls. I tried to raise a complaint in airtel web site, it always ends up giving a message that due to some internal server error, the request can't be processed at that time and to try again.

        Can you please look into this?

        Best regards

            I have been using an airtel prepaid no. [protected] since last two to three years. On 31.10.2018 this no. Stopped working. I consulted the airtel store located at jagdeopath, patna bihar on 01.11.2018. It was said by the staff of the store that your sim has not working and new sim will have to take for continuation of prepaid number. A new sim was issued to me by the airtel stores after taking the documents, one colour photographs and fee of rs 25/- against sim. My no. Has not be activation till now. And due to non-activation of my number i have already suffered a lots of problem which could not be ruled out. After no response from the service provider as well as from airtel stores for activation of my prepaid no. I am registering a complain for redressal of my grievances at the earliest.

              Whatsmob, i don't know what happened... Airtel just deducted rs. 35 for whatsmob... Which i don't know what it is.
              They keep it doing every time...
              Their company should be shut... I am just so offended by what they are doing...
              They are just looting us customers...

                Today airtel sent the following message and debited rs.20 from my balance.

                Thanks for using gamesworldpocket. You have been charged rs 20.0 from your airtel mobile account. For more services, call 56789

                I did not register for any such services. Airtel is cheating its customers and charging for services not subscribed.in this way it is wasting the valuable time of its customers. So refund it at the earliest.

                  I am a post paid customer and have been using airtel post paid connection for last five year. I have been facing a lot of problems ever since i got my post paid connection ([protected]) started. I have given lot of complaints as well. (Call interruption, call tapping, poor billing system and the like). I paid my airtel bill always in a prompt fashion despite these problems every time. Of late, i felt that, the problems with airtel post paid is not getting sorted out permanently so that it is better to switch over to pre paid connection. I approached customer care executives for necessary directions and they in turn told me that there is no problem for converting a post paid number to prepaidlife time connection without changing the existing number. They rightly explained to me the procedures that i got to follow for the same.

                  But, contrary to my expectations, when i approached the local airtel outlet here in vasco goa, there is no airtel outlet to do the conversion. As i already paid my postpaid bill so plese convert the sim.

                  I request you to sort out my problem expediently

                    In our area we were getting good speed of internet 4g/3g but from some days the speed is decresed and downloading and uploading is very slow so many o[censored]s are dishappy in our area who are having airtel sims. We are not getting good speed to watch a live streaming or while opening websites. The 4g network is very low in our area sometimes there will be no 4g network and 3g is also slow and we are dishappy to use airtel 4g network...

                      Earlier i was toping up in my balance account with amount of my wish. Now recently i found they are asking me to browse the recharge showing various pack. I am confused as the pack for balance account and data pack gives unlimited call aswell as data for certain period of time.

                      I have paid for rs219 a plan in my account but it is not still depicted in my account balance.

                        Hi airtel team,
                        I have asked for a airtel broadband connection in october 1st week. I made my payment of 4800 through online. Due to some technical issues, airtel connection was asked to cancel.
                        The customer care called me and told the money will be refunded in 9 days. It's almost a month i didn't get my money. The person whom i called to taking up connection is not responding to my phone. How will i get my refund. Please take serious action. This is totally not acceptable.
                        Thanks
                        Sruthi

                            I woke up this morning and saw this message where airtel has charged me rs. 20 for buying some game. Airtel now falters to such low level of cheating people is insane and really obnoxius. When i called the custome care... Mr. Nafis qureshi (Thats what he named himself) was rude enough to let me know that how could airtel deduct money if i have not made purchase. He said i nade a purchase on 7:30am that day. To my fair surprise i woke up at 10 am that day.

                            When i retorted to mr nafis he said ok he will credit back my 20 bucks and requested me not to inform about this if i get any calls. This is a corruption on a new level.. Shame on you airtel.

                            Its not about mere 20 rupees, its about how it has been deducted. It makes one feel really cheated and even more cheated when the airtel customer executive justifies that cheating and blames you for something you never did.

                                I had activated the international roaming for rs. 2999 - 10 day pack which include many countries in europe. After reaching belgium i was able to use it as per details mentioned in the pack. But the next day once i entered france, i am not able to make outgoing calls. A pop up message saying "outgoing calls barred" is shown. As per the pack details, it should work in france as well. I am able to receive incoming calls and able to use data services. Have sufficient call balance too...
                                Can you guys help out asap...

                                  Yesterday(01.11.2018) at about 12.36 am i received a msg from airtel which said "Thanks for using Gamesworldpocket. you have been charged rs20 from your airtel mobile account . for more services, call 56789". but i didn't asked for any of this services or games from airtel.i also called customer care service today(01.11.2018 at 10.41pm) to know about this incident and they said that i purchased a game called gamesworldpocket from airtel and that's why they deducted 20rs from my main account balance and they also declined to refund that amount.
                                  Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                  On November 3, 2018 i recieved a message fromm aitel (Thanks for using GamesWorldPocket. You have been charged Rs 20.0 from your Airtel Mobile account.For more services, call 56789).I never logged in in this type of any website, this is absolutely fraud, I want my money to be refunded asap.
                                  Same message i also received on 3Nov at 1:14PM. Charging me Rs 20.
                                  Although i don't know about any such activity.

                                    This is in regard of a bill payment of Airtel Landline/Broadband Bill Payment of Rs. 710/- bearing number [protected], connection registered on my name Mrs. Durga Sachin Bajaj. I wrongly paid the bill of a different number having a number [protected]. The payment was made on 1st November 2018 at 9.25PM. Mode of payment was Paytm. I will also attach a screenshot of payment for the purpose of cross check and verification. I have spoken to customer care executive on this and the reference number given by them is[protected]. Please look into the matter and do the needful and credit back the debited amount to my account back. Thank you

                                      I have been trying to send a message to a port number from a week but I can not get the message. And whenever I call the customer number, those people ask me the number of the message center, someone tells me something, then some.
                                      But no one has solved my problem yet, I just have to send a message and I do not have to stay this company because they make Airtel customers just crazy

                                      Please Help me.

                                        Excuse me, you airtel...
                                        My 20 rs. Got deducted from my account unnecessarily, and i am getting a very stupid reason for this that i have used some kind of prime zone services, but the actual fact stands that i have not.
                                        So, it would be better for you to contact me as soon as possible otherwise you are likely gonna face consequences. I will be taking a very strict action against you or will move to consumer court because i am not the only person who is facing such kind of problems and i am not likely to keep quiet as everyone else so better deal with it.
                                        I will take a strict action so its better to reply to my complaint otherwise i will be taking action... And you better mind it...
