Today airtel rejected my port request (Mobile no. [protected]) 2nd time giving reason of outstanding dues. This is to inform you that i already paid advance & my account is showing 486.89 credit balance. Moreover i have paid rs.3000 towards security deposit amount while taking this connection.
1. Rs.1000 chq no.211905 citi bank - against new connection
2. Rs.2000 chq no.224720 citi bank - national rooming deposit
Now onward don't reject my port request as you have sufficient security deposit balance to settle my outstanding if any.

          This is subhash chand, i have been using this no.[protected], [protected] since 2017, after recharging with rs. 448, network as well as data issue is there. I called to your customer care many times but still no one resolve my problem instead of resolving it, they cut my call too.

          Kindly take immediate action against it.

                  Same with me. I tried to stop all auto renewal packs, sending an sms stop to 155223. But did not worked.in airtel app also in manage services activate/deactivate dnd option is there, but no option to deactivate auto renewal packs. This happened in landline phone also earlier with me, without my consent they upgraded to higher pack, when i made complaint, they said current plan is not available now. When i said then stop plans i do not want airtel, then suddenly they corrected to old plan.
                  These guys are money suckers.
                  God should see them, no not god, trai should see, as in our case trai is the god.

                    Website: My Airtel prepaid mobile [protected] service stopped working from past 8 days due to the error Simca

                    My airtel prepaid mobile [protected] service stopped working from past 1days due to the error simcard registration failed. Tried using a different phone but never worked. I tried contacting airtel customer care many times and none bothered to look in to this matter.

                    I had already sent many emails to the airtel appellate authorities and a lady named rukhshar ali replied saying that my alternate number is not reachable. When i replied to her email saying "stop lying" and start resolving the problem. She then sent an email requesting for all non relevant questions like, hows the voice clarity, how many towers are displayes, what does the cell info display status shows and so on. Finally she asked me for the sim number which i sent through an email. I have never got an update and my phone is dead for more than 1 days now. This is not acceptable since this is the main number my family and relatives use to contact. I have also raised a complaint through airtel www.airtel.in/airtelpresence and no response till date.

                    Since it is too late i want some higher authorities from airtel to look in to this and do the needful asap. I want airtel to compensate for the loss that they have made to me and should pay for the difficulties i had to gone through because of their poor service.

                      Below is the mail which i had to finally write to the highest escalation authority in airtel but still these guys didn’t respond:
                      — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
                      First of all, it is very disappointing that i need to reach out highest escalation authority. But this situatuoon has occurred because of very unprofessional behaviour out of airtel perssonnels of different stature.

                      I believe, by this you may have already been informed by your internal teams, but if not, then here is the brief what has happened as part of pathetic service is have received from airtel.

                      Because of very high urgency, i discussed and booked airtel high speed broadband service yesterday. It was committed by sales representative-‘venkatesh puvvada’ that i will get my active connection yesterday itself by evening 5:00 pm. I cross-confirmed multiple times with him and he mentioned that as it is closing of july month, so definitely i will get connection lately by 9:30 or 10:00 pm. He was very eager to collect in collecting documents and advance money from me. I did whatever he asked me to do. Even though i had doctors appointment at 5, if met doctor earlier only and made myself available by 5:30 pm and informed venkatesh regarding my availability, half an hour early, at 5:00 pm himself, exactly what he asked me to do. No one contacted me around 5:30 pm. I messaged him between 5:30 and 6:00 pm regarding status update but didn’t respond anything else that saying his is in meeting and confirematon to get the connection done. I have record of this conversation. Then i talked to venkatesh again at 6:15 pm and he said he will get this done in few hours and update me by 7:15 pm. I kept on waiting for him till 9:00 pm but no response. Because of no internet i missed my super urgent meeting which has caused me loss of rs. 5000/-. I messaged venkatesh at around 9:00 pm itself to stop processing my request because i already have missed the meeting. And asked him to refund my money by 11:00 am next day. As usual, there was no response from him. Then i called him around 9:15 pm last night to inform the same. Initially he didn’t respond but later he said he can get the connection done in few mins. I was waiting for his response till 10:30 pm but nothing happend and when finally he answered my call, he mentioned to call at airtel customer care for money refund.

                      With this fraud, i tried calling last night but couldn’t succeed. Today, at around 9:30 am, i was finally able to connect with airtel support. After going through round of multiple long hold, i was connected with ms. Hinduja, floor supervisor. I asked her for immediate refund so that i get internet connection with other providers. I don’t have other budget for internet connection and i have to use this money, stuck at airtel, for internet connection. She mentioned about long list of policies and it appeared that airtel is not going to return my money. After long discussion with her, it was finally committed by her that she will share an update regarding my connection by 12:00 pm. For this update and get connection, i had to postpone my office login because i am in super urgent need of internet connection because tonight again i have meeting and failing to attend it will cause me loss of another rs. 5000/-. Again, because of airtel personnel failing to keep their commitment, i only had to call them back. This time i was connected with mr. Gautam gopinath, floor manager and escalation manager. After great rounds of holds, mr. Gautam presents a completely new story. So far there were some technical issues because of which the committed internet connection was not provided to me. This time mr. Gautam mentions that some regional manager had informed him that the security at my apartment complex are not allowing airtel technicians to get the connection done. This theory emerged after such long periods and i was not even informed that some from my apartment security is preventing them from anything. Also, during the call it appeared that someone is calling me. They could be airtel technicians, i am not sure, but they didn’t call me in the agreed time frame of 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. I was waiting asking to mr. Gautam while i was on my way to office. At times he was saying to give him 20-30 mins to get regional manager in call and get the problem solved and other times he was saying it is not possible to get it done today. Finally, i informed him that if i can be compensated of loss which o had yesterday and which i will have today, i can wait for tomorrow but he couldn’t validate it.

                      Why there is no value of time and money at airtel. Didn’t we learn that in professional world, if we give words and commit something, we have responsibility of that. These all are missing at airtel and i don’t want go with such unprofessional service provider.

                      I expect at least the personnel at this highest escalation level will have some decency and value towards their work, word and commitment. You will revert back to me at the earliest.

                      You may do needful,
                      1. Compensate for my loss and return my money immediately so that i go with other vendor
                      2. Compensate for my loss and get the connection done at the earliest
                      3. Let me know about other options like online forums, consumer court, etc. To get a proper and timely resolution

                      You should listen to conversation i had with airtel representatives and take necessary actions to rectify these issues.

                              Dear sir,
                              Airtel is the worst service provider in roorkee uttarakhand. I am a student of iit roorkee. Since last month i have registered more than 10 complains regarding my number. Still, i didn't get any help from airtel. Even the customer care executives don't have a manner to talk to their customers.

                              Airtel is selling cheaper sim to iit students but in terms of service, the airtel is simply the worst company.

                              My mobile no. Is - [protected]
                              You can check the no. Of registered complains about this no.

                              I have already mailed to trai

                              Thanks
                              Regards-

                                Airtel claim to be fastest network but in reality its worst. I stay in one of old and central area in bangalore, but I don't have connectivity. Its shows UMTS 3G is this the way network Connectivity. Where as jio has super 4g network n speed is in creditable. Planning to port the no to jio

                                  Hi,

                                  I have been using Airtel post-paid since 2 year and my number is [protected] but last few month I am facing the issue of call drop/low data speed/network fluctuation issue.

                                  Some time when I am trying to call someone getting No Signal message this is happing last 1 month. I am totally frustrated why I am paying rental every month?
                                  I have raised the network related compliant to Airtel so many times the network team came to my place and took the survey.

                                  They also faced the network issue. Sent the report to concern team. After that there is no proper resolution for my issue till date every time they replied my network team is working on that.

                                        For the last 2 days, I havent been able to call anybody without the cross connection problem. I call someone and someone else picks up. Also the number I have called gets a call from my number later but with someone else speaking.
                                        I tried calling 121 for this, but it says that my number is invalid and wont let me connect.
                                        It feels like my number has somehow been given to someone else. It is very troubling as I cannot even call Airtel customer care as it wont let me.
