    Hi,
    This is regarding the broadband connection . I applied for a broadband connection online and one of your staff (Mr. Bijo, no: [protected]) sent a link asking to pay for it and I did it a month ago. And there is no response after I sent the payment details. Please look into it, down below I will provide the details of the payment and the messages.
    Thank you.

      Dear airtel team
      It is to inform that the airtel tower system situated at khuppi, west kameng district of arunachal pradesh is failed to provide 3g network sevice for the last 9 days and before that also, although mobile network shows 3g, network speed was not up to the mark. Hence, it is requested to kindly restore the service at the earliest.

        It was promised 2 months back that extra bonus data shall be given. But till date it's not implemented despite our numerous complaints.
        If today it's not done, we shall be forced to close our account with airtel.

        We are getting only 40 gb and despite your promises it's heavy loss to our business. So we are left with no option rather to close our 10 years more connection in a sad way.

          Hi airtel team,
          This is mahipal kambhampati and bearing airtel connection since 28-mar-2013. On monthly basis i am facing recharge issues in prepaid which was escalated to airtel several times. During that time i had a discussion with your airtel executive team they have said about convert to postpaid and they are ready to provide rs 499 plan. But from the day one i am facing signal issues and call drops in the network and i am unable to use internet and phone for calling. Which i have complained to 198 but they could not fix my problem. I am staying near lakdikapool which is the centre of greater city of hyderabad.
          My sim is activated on 20 jun 2017
          On one day i have called airtel team mahesh he has said there is some signal issue which cannot be fixed if you are not satisfied with our service you can again go back to prepaid. But in prepaid i do not have this offer. Requesting airtel to look into this issue and do needful.
          Today also i have tried calling customer service executive they said they are working how many years or months it will take to resolve a problem with in hyderabad city.
          Attached a mail from network team saying they are working the mail was sent on 16 jul 17.

          Problem not resolved but i am getting more wrong calls earlier this was not their i think Airtel only making these type of Nasty calls from many wrong numbers through out India. Everyone will tell from Airtel and listen complete story and they will tell working on it but no solution to given complaint. Any way airtel team is not having any concern on their customers and they are least bothered on customer complaints. Hence i am looking to cancel this request.

              While working a glass of water accidentally spilled over my phone and other documents. The phone kept working but somehow after few days the screen started shaking/rolling. I was told by service centre that this is due to slight ingress of moisture and the screen needs replacement. Inspite of speaking and providing all documents i was told that this accidental spillage of water is not covered. Whereas in the supporting video on my airtel site shows that accidental spillage of water is covered under insurance.

              I feel airtel is just paying with its customers and all this free insurance cover with postpaid 499 plan etc are business gimmicks.

                Can any one from airtel secure understand me what is "accidental damage".
                My phone drops from the hand and screen got damaged. Isn't it "accidental damage"?

                Why the dropping of phone is not covered under "accidental damage".

                Pls don't make fool to your customer by false promise & advertisement.

                No one drop phone intentionally its an accident only.

                This is the commitment level of Airtel. Even after 18 hours they didn't bother to respond.

                    I am so surprised this morning when i saw a message that there was a deduction of rs.35 from my airtel account on the name of vemes service selected and which will renew automatically after 7 days. When i called airtel that what is this service about, the reply i found this is just a service you select when a msg come to you with yes or no option. My question is does airtel has degraded it's services to this level that it has to deduct money from customers' account without there consent. Or it is airtel's any trick to cover losses suffered from jio. Your customer executive doesn't even know what is vemes service. It's a big shame.

                      On 07.08.2018, airtel mobile services had added some sports video services without my consent and rs. 60 was deducted towards the same. Again on 08.08.2018 at 02.36 a. M. I received a message that some fitonza service has been activated and will be renewed after validity expiry.
                      Without my request, why are these services being added and amount being deducted from my account? Such arbitrary action of the airtel mobile services in un-acceptable.
                      Kind intervention in the matter is solicited to resolve this matter and arrange for refund of the amount un-authorisedly deducted from my account.
                      Thank you.

                            I recharged my airtel prepaid number [protected] with rs 508.
                            The correct tariff amount is rs 509.
                            I did this recharge today itself and the transaction id is 30674598.
                            I got the message of a successful transaction but until now where the balance is credited is not shown.
                            Please check this issue and resolve as early as possible.

                              I had requested for extension on29/07 to airtel on 30th morning morning get message foe deactivation. On 30th afternoon iget message for activationfrom 30th. Again on 31st morning iget message for deactivation. Again on 31st afternoon i get message for activation after my interference. Again on 6th aug. I get message for extension from 6th aug. My previous safe custody period was to be over by 30th/31st july. No answer to my repeated complaints to ensure safe custody extension from 30th july.
                              The bill upto 1st aug. Shows one time custody charges of rs 295/ it does not mention the period for which it is chaged and the services. Again no specific reply to my repeated complaints.
                              Airtel seem to be sending only automated messages and their different messages are all contradictory thus creating nuisance for customers.
                              Please help me get specific coordinated reply.

                                  I have been an airtel customer for nearly ten years. I use a mobile, broadband and dth from airtel.
                                  This month i got a shocker of a postpaid bill from them. They have charged me international roaming charges of 3000... Twice!!!

                                  I was travelling to europe. I was transitting through frankfurt. All i did was switch on my phone at when i landed and connected it to the airport wifi. These guys just load some international roaming and charge 3k. Not once... Twice!!!. I didn't even get a warning saying they are going to charge me!!! I was using a local simcard in europe. I didn't even use the airtel. I got a 6k extra on my bill.

                                  This is daylight robbery... I am going to tell me entire family to switch to some other network. Not that airtel would care... Aim sure they have a large enough customer base. Iam fine with these guys resolving my issue. I have spoken to the customer care twice. Each time they tell me they will resolve the bill in 48 hours. My bill due date was the day before. I paid the amount after deducting what i think is the disputed amount. Now i have already started getting a reminder when i make outgoing calls that my bill hasn't been paid... This is nothing short of extortion in addition to harassment...

                                  Airtel waived half the amount on my bill. I wasn't exactly happy with what they had to offer. But i had to take it as they wouldn't really care

                                        I have done online payment towards recharge of DT amounting to Rs. 250/- around 7.30 am on 28 Jul 2018 for Digital TV ID [protected]. The transaction ID is[protected].

                                        However, could'nt view the channels and I called to customer care and enquired and was told that the recharge process was not complete and the recharge amount will be credited to account. Received mail giving reference of the complaint - Reference No.78248711.

                                        He asked me to recharge with min. amount of Rs.150/- again, which I did on 29 Jul 2018.

                                        When I called to customer care number, I am being told that they will solve the problem shortly. I Would like to know what is the time limit you have fixed for short in your policy. It is really pathetic to know Company of such repute is doing so cheap business.

                                        I would circulate this matter in the internet..
