    My mob no. is[protected] and I m not receiving OTP for online banking transaction from last two months. I also registered a complaint to the bank but as per the bank the issue pertains to mobile service provider. Also some times I received OTP but after a long time. Kindly find the solution immediately.

        Hello,
        We have airtel broadband connection with account no. [protected]-mh. We face many issues with this connection we submit complain via mail & customer care number many times but did not get any solution for that we have connection from last 2 year but we have face connectivity problem till start up. Now we bothered & tired to complaining many times we paid advance payment for 12 months now they either no refund nor solving issue. As our work by internet we need internet connection for our business but we can not able to do work. We take fastest plan but it is like to wasting our time and money. First they take money from us and then they not receiving any calls and not replying to mails. It is worse experience with airtel service even we have cug postpaid airtel connection we face same issue with that also we can not able to use internet on our mobiles.

          My data of 1.4 gb was anonymously deducted by airtel without my knowledge and use, i had not involved in the internet for such time so that the data can be used by me. When i called your customer care they just told me that i had used the data thats it and its my fault, again i received a call from bikash jyoti who just simply told me that i had used the data when i told him it is better i should port out from airtel than he said that its ok and there's no problem you can port out. Oh what an ego i can't believe. Your customer representatives say simple things but their tone rises the anger of a customer on the other side of the phone. Now i think it was really my fault that i ported to airtel, such a crap network which tells big things and steals customer data and have such useless customer care team. Now if my complaint is not resolved i would love to port out from your cheating network.

                    Such a waste network you are providing to customers and claiming monthly bill for post paid customers was not correct.
                    I have been complaining about the network issues from last 4 months regularly.
                    But i cannot pay the bill without using the mobile. How you can ask to pay full amt when you are unable to provide proper network.
                    That’s the reason i have not paid my bill from past 4 months.
                    I have been using the same number ([protected]) from 11 years(Post-paid).
                    What i have to do, from last 1 1/2 month u have barred my outgoing & past 2 weeks incoming also.
                    I have lost so many imp calls and data for the worst network you have provided.
                    You people keep on raising the bills month by month and i have to pay without any questions. How is it possible.
                    lets discuss.

And then i called to your CUSTOMER CARE service they speak irrelevantly and speak badly . They said i use internet and i activate this service by clicking add i didnt put internet service on my number then how did i start th service and i also turn off my flash msg.

                        Sir, i can’t have access to my airtel prepaid mobile number. Perhaps it is deactivated as it was not in use for sometime.

                        Now i am facing problem because it shows that this number do not exists.

                        I want my number to be reactivated as soon as possible. Kindly help me to get out of it. My airtel prepaid mobile number is [protected].

                        According to trai rules you cannot recycle the number after having switched off for 90 days because you still keep on deducting currency on the same. So it is better we negotiate and you give me back my number and i will regularise the connection.

                          Anyone who calls me are hearing "THE NUMBER YOU HAVE CALLED IS CURRENTLY NOT REACHABLE" since August 29, 2018. I had registered complaint to the CUSTOMER CARE on September 1, 2018. I was actively receiving calls from Customer Care actively for about 6 days ... everytime asking my complaint in detail. This was already mentioned in detail in my mail. I had sent about 13+ screenshots to support my complaint. Still of no use. 13 days have completed and my problem is yet to be resolved. My immediate family, relatives or friends are suffering because of this. I receive calls when I use 3G instead of 4G. But this 3G doesn't support my work from home. If I use internet services for just browsing social networks I wouldn't be so stressed. It is my source of income and I have explained all my callers and still they haven't bothered to resolve the issue. I am not sure if my complaint in OPEN or closed and thrown in TRASH. This is highly disappointing.

                              My regd. Mobile no, with airtel dth and airtel broadband is [protected],
                              I hv a clear balance of rs 1707/54 is lying in my dth? C for the last 9 months.. When i renewed plan for dth in feb, 2018, ur local rep made me pay the full amount and said the refund of credit amount will b given to me by head office.
                              Ever since i made about 10-12 calls to ur both no, (121 & [protected]) and everytime i was told that ur senior person will call me up.. Till today no one bothered to contact me. During the last abt 9 months.
                              Its matter of regret that a reputed company like airtel is not doing justice to its customers.
                              Now i m making last attempt to request you to either transfer this amount to my broad band a/c so that i make my bill payment against this amount or u may refund this amount to me,, i wud mention here that i have no intention to renew my dth contract after it expires.
                              I will request u to please settle this case immediately.
