I am unable to use internet since more than 1 week.
I have tried registering complaint with customer care (On call) multiple times... I have ben given false assurances from them.
I also tried visiting airtel store multiple times but they could also not solve my problem. They even tried replacing my sim!
They all have also tried resetting internet settings, restarting mobile multiple times, changing mobile handset. But all these tries have been futile.

They are now not even registering my complaint!

    Earlier i was having 3g mobile, few days before i purchase a 4g mobile but using 3g sim which was working in good condition. Started getting msg from airtel that convert your sim, i denied. Today they shutdown my internet services. When i called to customer care they inform me that there are some network issues and will be resolved shortly. Then after 5 minutes they blocked my sim. When i contacted customer care they started persuading me to purchase 4g sim. I denied and ask them to unblock my sim.
    Very surprised that airtel people are adopting such unethical ways to promote their 4g market.

        Before 7 days i have only one airtel connection and i used to local tv cable connection for my 2nd tv. 7 days ago company called me and offer me a new airtel connection for my 2nd tv. The offer is 950 pay and use airtel hd tv for one month free. After month recharge is 175. But my connection is closed today. Due to low balance is showed on my tv screen
        Then i call to customer care, she asked me to recharge.
        Why i recharge my connection because 7 days ago i pay 950 rs. To my new connection where is your commitment for one month free connection???
        This is too much
        I want closed my connection
        Local cable tv connection is best for me.
        Airtel digital tv harassed me too much.

          Hello, there is an airtel junction box in front of my house. The placement of the junction box is such that it is right infront of the house. It causes a lot inconvenience to me and my family. I can't park my car in front of my house and the neighbors use it as a garbage dumping area.
          I request you to please remove this junction box at the earliest. Thank you.

            This month i've received a mobile bill of more than rs. 4400. My postpaid mobile plan is of rs. 399. I've no idea why this huge amount is being charged this month. I had activated international roaming for a month in june and called the airtel customer care twice to deactivate my international roaming once in month of june itself and once again in month of july but still they didn't deactivate it despite of telling them twice to deactivate it and now they have pasted a bill of more than 4400 on me.

            This careless service of airtel seems to be exploiting and making fool of the customers. I would like to discontinue this mobile service from immediate effect.

                The airtel has activated a service without my concern. The service is called icon service.
                They have charged ₹35 from my account. Its a harasment to the customer by activating different services without our concern. Such a poor service by airtel.
                They activate the services without our concern and charge us money. And we are helpless. They dont refund us the money. Only they can do is stop the service.
                They are cheating the customer by this practice always.
                My mobile no. Is [protected].
                The money deducted on 11 aug, 2018 at 9:00am

                  I was paying rs 250 more per month for airtel secure. When my phone got damaged accidentally the airtel secure rejected my claim without proper reason and they are saying the accident is improper handling. It is purely airtel fraud. I want airtel to treat the customer fairly. Please do not fall into airtel secure trap from airtel they are looting the money and they are cheating the customers.

                  Please do not take the airtel secure from airtel. I will change the service provider from airtel to jio. Jio is the best company in the market now.

                    I have never ever activated any services called :
                    1) airtel now flash
                    2) super store
                    But every time i recharge my number 35+35=70 rs gets deducted which is completely against my consent.
                    Today, at 2:44 am 35 rs were deducted for something called supe store. Airtel, is this your another way of earning money?
                    I want complete refund of my money or strict actions will be taken against airtel.
                    And yes, airtel is definitely going to lose a lot of customers for these crimes.

                      I have ported my number [protected] from vodafone to airtel. But there is no signal in that sim and my old number has stopped already. I am loosing my business calls and i am going to consumer forum against it.
                      This is such a bad service for postpaid users like us. We wholly depend on our phone.

                      Your associates keep bugging us about your plans and finally when we try it we have to face this. I urge you to start my number immediately

                        Also, there will not be any data charges for the app usage on airtel network. Airtel partners can easily get the app from google play store, which earlier available via a link generated to lapu numbers.

                            Website: i am complaining about airtel communication company

                            I want say that i am using airtel prepaid sim from one year and its performance is very worst. Presently i live in chandigarh before that i lived in the village somewhere in himachal pradesh.in the village the 4g service was very cheap but in the city service must be good. Honestly now i am frustrated by using airtel sim and even i tried to call customer care but this is also wastage of time. They never pick up the call

                              I have been complaining about airtel gallery no. Of times.
                              They are showing their helplessness every time.
                              They asked me to mail their backhand office abt. The issue.
                              Their office sends me a mail to remove sim & follow elaborate instructions, which as a senior citizen of 71 yrs. Old cannot follow.
                              Why not they ask their gallery people to contact me & take corrective action?
                              I hear a lot of people complaining abt. Aitel services during my visits to their gallery.
                              Due to my frustrated & disturbed status now i am going all out to let people know about the situation with airtel
                              I am going to blow all media about the problems.
                              My complaint is as detailed below:
                              Sir,
                              This is to bring to your attention very serious problem with my airtel mobile connection.
                              I m not getting phone calls from any landline connection.
                              Porting has been done from vodafone to airtel 10 days back.
                              My problem is, my wife has very low vision.
                              She cannot connect me when i m out of the residence.
                              This is a serious situation.
                              Airtel gallery at borivli west, link road is helpless & are not able to help.
                              Urgent action is a must from airtel.
                              Request immediate action.
                              Regards,

                                As i am paying my bills promptly before due date mostly i could not be charged the late fee. Sometimes net connection problem occurs and at that time i was unable to pay on due date. I request you not to add up the late payment charges in my next bill. Two months back really i forgot to pay and the next month i paid my bill with late fee only. Hope you will do the needful for me in this case.
                                Thank you.

                                      Hello,

                                      Today I was charged (for the second time in a while) for the AIRTEL GAMESWORLD service. Neither did I opt for such service nor was I notified before being charged for it. The given number, to stop the service, "isn't available at the moment" and when I text them they show it as an active service but I can't cancel it. Whenever i put 1 (the code for it in active service) it simply shows invalid. Can't call, cancel service. Even the activate/deactivate service section on my 'My Airtel' app shows "Please try again later."
                                      This is no way to take money from customers. Activating services without their consent, charging them and not allowing them to cancel. I want my refund as well as this service to stop immediately.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
