      The special offers in recharge plans airtel offers. “Rs.8=Local and STD mobile calls at 30p/min for 84 days”. Under this plan I recharged my mobile on 13/11/17, 26/01/18, 5/7/18 and14/7/18. Each time airtel confirmed the recharge and its validity for 84 days in their return messages. But the calls at 30p/min were stopped after just 7 days. In respect of recharge on 14/7/18, a message is received that “Apke mobile per Sabhi local mobile call @30p/min able 2 din me Samapta ho jayega”.

      This is just cheating the customers by such a renowned company. The matter was reported to the Company and its nodal Officer by email on[protected] but there in no response from air tel.

        I'm a platinum customer of Airtel and have been using services since very very long, about 20 years. I had registered a complaint yesterday on 121 Airtel Customer care with my Broadband not working. the complaint was registered and someone did come to my residence after one hour to check the broadband connectivity. My wifi wasnt working. He did troubleshooting and siad it will work from now on.

        After few minutes I called up home again to speak with him and requested him to check the settings again so that the problem do not happen frequently. He called me again after checking all the settings and said that the Modem is faulty and will have to change the Modem.

        He changed my Brand new Modem and replaced with old pale dirty Modem which is more than a year or two old and did not inform me that he's replacing my new Modem with old Modem. As there was no one available at home except my domestic help he changed the Modem and left. When I got home in the night at 10:00 PM, i was furious as I saw the Modem replaced was an old dirty one for which I was not at all informed.

        I immediately called up customer care and lodged my complaint and narrated my conversation I had with the technician who came to check at my residence. His name is Chandan. I spoke with Amit at customer care then with Manish and finally narrated my incident to supervisor Shukla where I requested them that as my Modem used for wifi connection was Brand new hence the faulty Modem needs to be replaced with a new one. I was given assurance that my complaint would be actioned and would get completed by afternoon on 21st July'2018. I've been interacting with various persons from Airtel since last evening and today morning onwards but till now that is 6:00 PM in the evening nothing has been done to resolve my complaint.

        I called up Airtel in the early afternoon and spoke to supervisor Animesh whereas he did promise that my complaint would be addressed on priority but nothing has been done so far. I have wasted my full day today interacting with Airtel personnels but in vain.

        I would request you to kindly take my complaint as a genuine complaint and my request is to kindly offer me a replacement of a Brand new modem as my Modem was new and within the warranty period. At no cost I would be ready
        to use old Modem.

        I've also asked Artel to charge me for the Modem if need me. Still my complaint is not being addressed and taken on priority. Request you to kindly look into the same at the earliest.

                  I am not using my Airtel number ‘[protected]’ since two month but still I am getting the bill of the same.
                  I keep getting call from collection team and then I paid my outstanding bill asked by the team. But still my number is not getting disconnected.
                  Kindly disconnect my number as I am no more using that number.
                  I called them everyday but it seems they don’t want to disconnect it...I am not in the country to take any kind of follow up.

                    Since past many days have been receiving calls from airtel to switch from current telecom plan. They keep calling from different numbers at unwanted time inspite of saying no. No point in putting DND as they call from different numbers. I really want airtel to stop making these calls to people. If you were good enough, people would automatically come to you and you won't have to poach people. Its actually a form of harassing as get atleast 1call/day and sometimes 2-3.

                      I have applied for 10 days international roaming pack from 19 June 2018 for my stay in Germany. However, the services stopped on 22 June 2018 due to technical fault of Airtel and I was not able to avail these services. I suffered heavy business loss as my total connectivity was lost for 4 days.

                      I have requested Airtel to charge me on pro-rata basis for the services used and balance amount of 2999/- needs to be waived off. However, Airtel is not accepting their problem of their inability to provide me services while in Germany and their current Customer care supervisor Mr Ashish was extremely arrogant during my call with them on 21 July 2018.

                      I feel cheated by Airtel and I would like to take this matter legally so that other Customer don't suffer because of such problems.

                      Thanks,

                        Poor network at home, when called Airtel customer service they are unable to resolve the issue.

                        We hv been using these numbers for quite some time now. Earlier the service was good since last 6 months mobile network coverage has deteriorated.

                        Once we reach home no one ( Business or personal ) is able to reach out to us .

                        I hv attached my mobile screen shot there are no network bars

                        Extremely poor service, we are paying 500 to 600 RS monthly mobile bills but not getting the service that we are paying for.

                        Customer service team says known issue but aren't providing any fixed resolution time.

                        Very poor service

                        It's the same everywhere. The Airtel people say that no coverage in your area because not enough towers yet bill keeps getting generated!

                            Very very bad service. I call them for iphone sim international unlock. He even do not know about this! But he shouted and insulted me with harsh words like “you do not know how to use iPhone. Why are you using iPhone? Land phones are suitable to you.”
                            He is literally shouting on me.
                            I do not know why airtel is intaking such a worthless candidates!
                            Actually i ported to Airtel from vodaphone to pay my money to an Indian company as i am an indian.

                              I am using your network for past 15 years in India and UAE . Day before yesterday (19.07.2018) I got a message that you have been charged Rs. 99 for international roaming rental charge, but i didn't activate any such services. So I need the brief explanation about the amount deduction. If the scheme is new means let me know about in details . Also I want to use this network in UAE for my personal transactions without any deductions.

                              Anticipating your feedback..

                              Thanks

                              Refer to my previous complaint dated 21.07.2018, till now no response has come from Airtel service . Today also I got message from AT-AIRCCM that " Dear customer Rs.15.21 have been deducted towards the international roaming rental of Rs.99 activated on[protected]", so treat this complaint on urgent basis and revert back with answer for the deduction at the earliest.

                                  I have a total balance of 458 rs. Yesterday I directly got a message of deducting 150 rs balance from my account for any service named as SSPPULMOVIES as shown in msg. I use my sim in a simple keypad set(Samsung service). I didn't reciev any customer care call or any flash msg for activation nor I use any code to activate then how it happens to me. First of all I m well educated that I can not make any false transaction for any service in that simple set. And truly I did not do any thing to activate that. I call customer care at 7.30, the representative said that the money will be refunded in 30 minute. After waiting for 30 min I again call to customer care, again representative said that your money will be refunded in half an hour. After 4 hour I call again when money is not returned and now the representative said that, its my fault and money will not be refunded. Tell me one reason to use airtel prepaid if your service is like that. I'm totally dissatisfied and don't want to use your service. My remaining balance is 308 Rs. Also make deduction of that money and make yourself happy so that I can port to another service. Hope that you should understand my feeling. Very bad experience for me. The main thing is that, only I use my mobile phone and I did not so any thing to activate any charge and so I am unhappy for your service charge.

                                        I requested to port out from Jio Prepaid to Airtel Postpaid. I received a message from airtel that port request has been validated by Jio and it'll get ported into Airtel by 16th July (screenshot attached). Till this day, it hasn't been ported yet. Whenever I call them they just say your request is pending and please wait for 24 hours. Jio deactivated my services on time but Airtel is just frustrating me.Basically I am without any contact number right now. I have called their customer care atleast 15-20 times, tweeted them, e-mailed them, visited their airtel store but I got no real help. I have tried everything in my power.

                                        That number is very much important to me since it is my only official number and attached to all UPI apps so I can't do any transactions. I am stucked very seriously. I can't afford to lose this number.

                                        PLEASE HELP!!!
