Hello, i was interested in the installation of airtel broadband connection at home and i had called their representative raju ([protected]) and he came home immediately. He had asked me to fill the form and provide a form of id along with a payment link that was sent to my cell phone for the credit card payment and i was charged inr 4201 and transaction id was 80291231. He had assured me that he will make sure the connection will be done the same day thursday august 2nd but unfortunately that did not happen. I waited until the next day and i called him up and he was not answering the phone and i ended called another airtel person by the name raghava ([protected]) and he had informed me to call his manager/supervisor on ([protected]) and complain.in fact he had put me on conference call with his supervisor and asked me to express my experience. I did inform him that i will need to get my connection today as i was to leave overseas on saturday (August 4th). Unfortunately no one has come to my house to do the installation. I would not want to avail the service anymore and i would appreciate if i could have the full amount refunded to my credit card account immediately. I would appreciate if this is resolved immediately. Thank you in anticipation.

    Hello

    I am here today to raise my concerns over the airtel mobile services.

    When i fed up with vodafone (Was with 8+ years) an year back due different reasons. I thought airtel was good choice for long term and opted airtel mobile service but in recent time (Past 3 months) - have been experiencing very bad services.

    1) first and foremost is "all channels are busy" - what the hell is this? Are you living in the world where you can call at any time and use your super computers or going back to 90s? It was happened n no. Of times to me - in a day at least 4 times that too when i really need to talk with someone.

    2) second, the customer services that airtel is providing - it's getting worst day by day in my experience for past 1 year (Not so long period :)). Best example - last night i had been activated 1 day data plan (Rs:- 49/-) around 11:30 pm and it got expired after few min not even used much data - i connected to so called voice support but i was told that the day plan validity is 1 day as calendar changed it got expired - just rechared few minutes to calerdar change so. What a ridiculous this is? Not a great support i got as i tried to reach manager to raise my concern but no one was available (Mgr was busy) and was told that i need to call them again in next day morning for more details on plan. What a joke that is? I needed data for emergency but to get it back i have to wait for 7 hours - i was not convinced with their explanation and again reached support, finally had a chance to talk manager - explained my view of 1 day plan. Luckily i recharged using the airtel official webpage, provided my transaction id to him, information is not clear for 1 day plan so i stick with my point that offer should work for 1 day not based on calendar. Finally got 3g data after 1 hour discussion. Thanks to him and his efforts. It took almost an hour time to solve the issue - that too i dialed twice and put my efforts.

    3) when you mention 1 day in your official page - what does that mean? 24 hours or same day in calendar? If it is validated for 1 day why can't you mention that offer will be expired on same day at 11:59 pm?

    Hope my concerns are valid and will be addressed.

    Thank you so much

      I've already lodged this complaint with Airtel customer care several times in the last one year. But no resolution has been provided till date.
      Once again I'm briefly telling you the issue, Since the day the have started using this number ([protected]) which i earlier bought in Jammu then after moving to Delhi this number was transfered in Delhi (NCR) circle, whenever I'm roaming with this number my outgoing message service is barred and now since yesterday morning my outgoing message service is completely barred after making some complaints again, since today morning I'm able to send message to some numbers but can't receive the message from the same number.

          For last 4 months, i am experiencing frequent disconnect on my 4g lte usb datacard. I have to work on my company vpn and any signal packet drop will cause my vpn to break. Thus leaving me in difficult situation.

          I have verified by pinging many servers to check connection stability & observed 'time out request' error confirming issue source at airtel.

          I raised multiple complaints[protected], 86680466 etc) but no...

            This is to notify you that I'm using Airtel from 1year and I'm facing lot of problems in network connection.
            Whenever I play online game the internet speed is 980ms which is very poor and the game lags.
            The sim also gets suspended while playing the online games.
            And my smsc number is also not registered and whenever I try to submit the number it fails.
            So kindly solve this problem as soon as possible otherwise I'm SWITCHING MY NETWORK.
            The ookla test you guarantee for the best internet speed, . I'll consider it is as fake.

                    Hello,
                    I have purchased airtel sim from amritsar, but it is not activated from last 96 hrs as airtel office staff committed me that it will be activated within 24 hrs. Yesterday i again visited to airtel office they said we forget to process and still today it is not working.

                    Is this is the customer service provided by airtel company??

                    This is very pathetic!!!

                    Who is responsible for the inconvenience caused to me on daily basics???

                    Is there any revert or suggestions from company sides??

                    Will any appropriate action will taken against that staff members so anyone other couldn't face this harassment??

                    I will wait for the reply... On my mail jassie. [protected]@gmail.com

                            Respected sir,
                            I had done mnp from jio to airtel on 26th july'18 considering airtel as the best telecom operator but within few days your customer support and airtel office employees proved me wrong.
                            My jio number has been deactivated on 31st july but still my airtel sim isn't activated. I had tried contacting airtel customer care, airtel vendor and airtel office but all in vain. My airtel number is +91-[protected]. Customer care asked me to go to airtel office, airtel office asked me to go to the vendor from where i purchased the sim and the vendor told me to contact airtel customer care. Customer care said that my airtel number is activated but literally it isn't. You people don't value the customers. It's my request to look upon my matter and resolve this as soon as possible.

                            Regards,
                            Sourav kr. Pathak

                                Hi airtel,

                                As i have heard airtel is claiming to be the fastest network in india, whereas i myself who live in one of the fastest growing metro city in the world that is bangalore is facing issues with the network. Claiming to be the fastest network seems to be a joke played on the customers.
                                I recently got ported from idea postpaid to airtel, i have no other way to move out of this network before 3 months. So i'm left with no other option here.

                                  I am having 4 airtel numbers. All numbers have same network issue.

                                  I called several time to customer care. But they are just giving promises to resolve the complain within 2 days. Around 20 days happens but no resolution.

                                  This issue is in t c palya bangaluru. I need solution not their false promises.

                                  Recently i have ported my number so till 3 month i can't port it to other vendor as well.

But i had not confirmed that service. I was watching my offers on my mobile and did not reacted to any offer and suddenly i got a message written above. They not even confirmed the service, then how could provide the service without my confirmation. I want to complain about them and want my money back.
