Address: Cuttack, Odisha

I am staying abroad. Since tata docomo was not working properly so i switched to airtel. Now they have activated this service with out my permission and deducted rs.150 and again rs.75. Even to stop the service i am sending messages but it is not going through.

Even i am mailing to 121 but to no use.

I am aware of the fraudulent tricks these telecom companies do to make easy money.

This is ridiculous and absolutely cheating customers by airtel.

I m going back to india shortly and i shall take stringent actions if my money is not refunded until then.
Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
I am trying to recharge my SIM for past 24 hours. Visited the airtel centre and they cant solve it either. I cant make calls. And if someone calls me they cant hear my voice. Registered a service request too. No action taken. Service request number is RITM0907163
I want to delete the add on pack in my airtel dth which is get on... without my knowledge..Also want to change my base plan but customer care not reachable.Worst service provider airtel..No one is there to listen the complaint
Customer id-[protected]
After the message was forwarded to airtel they have responded through mails and deactivated as well as refunded back all amount. well appreciate Consumer Complaints as well as airtel for the same.

    Incoming and outgoing, both are not working.
    Please help me get rid of this disaster problem at an earliest possible otherwise I would be forced to port my number to another service provider

    Furthermore, internet/ data services are working as usual. This problem, has only arisen with the incoming and outgoing calls.

          This is to inform you that Bharti Airtel has automatically activated Games Fort value added service in my mobile number and is deducting my balance by 35 rupees a week. I called them up several times to resolve the issue but they didn't bother to listen. I am very shocked to see this type of attitude from Airtel. I hope you will look over my problem and get a good solution of it.

            I got fed up with your service as i keep my cell phone on 3g or 2g network h full same way if i update it to 4g network become very weak i don't understand why this happens and there is lots of network issue i never get proper speed as i use to get earlier. If you all can't resolve this issue than why should i use this service. Earlier i use to use vodafone and i thought i should use india network so i switched to airtel now i am thinking to move to jio as it work better than yours.

            The 4G coverage of AZARA, Guwahati area has gone done suddenly since 21st August 2018. Kindly look into the problem and fix the Towers and Coverage as soon as possible it is very difficult to use internet for Official Purposes and I am facing problem with my official life.

                Dear sir,
                This is in sequence to my complaints about poor quality of services in my locality, around Noida-201304
                Every time I make a complaint the so called technical specialist trained only to use Ookla Speed Test measures multiple times and somehow manages to show me 35 to 39 mbps and thats it.
                But, the problem is when you cannot even open google home page, or updating airtel app on mobile for 16mb takes more than 5 minutes.

                Please think about customer who is paying to you not Ookla.
                Request you to help solve the problem or stop selling false and degraded services to your customers.
                Seems like Airtel is powered and driven by ookla speed test.

                Attached screen shot from your favorite authentic ookla speed test.

                    Unknown recharge was made from my account i.e my talk time balance of airtel prepaid service and my balance got deducted.
                    Play zone pack was activated, i have no clue how it was activated.

                    Let me know if you need any more info for the same.
                    Kindly look into this matter

                            I am complaining to airtel since 2017 for 4g internet speed and voice quality. They always give the link of open-network page. On open-network, it shows excellent 4g and voice quality but in reality it is very very very slow and frustrating. I can't even search anything on google. They are taking full recharge money and giving speed slower then even 2g. I everyday complain then on twitter also. They just say in future they will plan something and give the link of open-network. Airtel should eat open-network and just put their company and tower on fire. They just show off and boast on tv ads that they are the fastest. Airtel should show their ads only in mumbai as they have good network only in mumbai. Fake ads and fake company. Cheating with customers. I saw that lakhs of people complain about airtel everyday and there is no response. Airtel is just getting customer because ookla said that airtel 4g is the fastest. Refund my money or burn your company you have only these choices. My airtel phone number : [protected]. Address : selaqui, dehradun (Uttrakhand).

                                I hav recharged my digital tv for two times but so far dish not working shows error code 6.. Called customer care they said problems will solve within 24hrs.. So far no solved poor service by airtel.. Fed up using the digital tv.. Planning to throw the connection... Airtel is a poor company who cheats the customers with false information.. Moreover they don't try to resolve the problem... Every time it does happens in all years.. Im using it from 2010... Still facing problems... Useless

                                    I am a regular customer of airtel mobile prepaid internet connection. I am using airtel mobile internet since 20 days. Airtel signals not displayed properly as a result i could not connect to any network. The blank airtel signals do not allow me to connect to network and access internet connection. Please suggest me away to resolve this problem. Airtel could not solve my problem till date.
                                    Thanking you sir,

                                      Reminder...!!
                                      I am facing network problem in my area from almost 20-22 months. Inspite of so many repeated complaints everytime i am assured that the officers are looking into the matter but everytime these assurances prove to be fake.
                                      Last time in may i was told that there is low network in the area and the company is working on installing a tower in my area and within 120 days my problem will be resolved but today
                                      Its almost 150 days now and my problem is still same. Infact call connectivity and internet speed has become more than worse till now.

                                      A customer is complaining so many times but its very disappointing and disgusting that a customer is made fool by fake assurances. Being a loyal customer of airtel from more than 10 years this kind of service was not expected from airtel india. I am using 6 7 airtel connections and in all my numbers i am facing same problem.

                                      Kindly reply clearly whether i should switch to a better network where customer is respected for loyalty or airtel india is capable enough to look into the matter..?

                                      Kindly look into the matter seriously and on a priority basis.

                                        The airtel network is making fake claims, it is become worse day by day. The network is fluctuating too frequently, it has no stability at all. The company has claimed that airtel is the fastest network, but it's becoming the slowest. The fluctuation of network is irritating and disgusting. If this problem is not resolved as soon as possible, then airtel will be in a great loss for sure.
                                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                        On 11th September while I was sleeping, Airtel activated VAS on my mobile number at 12:55 am. This was completely out of the blue and without any consent.
                                        I want my full money back.
                                        Today I recieved a message of some GAMEBAR service and it has deducted an amount of rs.35 . I have stopped the service but I want my money back also
