I had done the recharge of 399 on my airtel number [protected] and after that by mistake i had done the recharge again of 99. But they are giving me only the benefit of my 399 recharge. But the pack of 99 must be started after the ending of the pack of 399. This thing is happened with me with other operator also (Jio) but they first finish the one plan than start the another. Please sir take the strict action against airtel. They are just fooling the customer for there benefit.
Sir i had tried to solve the issue by calling them but refuse to do anything to help me

    A month ago, internet speed of airtel was pretty good. But since last month suddenly don't know why, the speed had dropped to the point where even sending a small message is a days work. It has become really frustrating can't send any messages or photos or even if someone sends me one it takes hours to download the content. The internet is very very slow. Please take this into consideration and do something about this.

        I have been paying my bills every month from last more than 10 months and unable to use services. I have filled complaint since last october and they are not helping me. I have visited airtel store as well and nobody is helping me. I want my money to be refunded as i am following up since october and they are not providing services and just charging the money.

          I am getting theses sms from a$tfarot about some calls being done eversince i have returned from abroad, and there is actual deduction of money from my account also. I tried to call airtel about this but the foolish guy at the other end tried to tell me that if i make calls then money is deducted.
          I have lost much of my balance in this nonsense in this month and waiting whether this will end..

              Actually i have put a unlimited pack of 99 on jun 19 2018 (Unlimited calls + 100 sms free per day + 1 gb net for one month) for my mobile number [protected]. And my main account balance on jun 19 2018 is 35 rupees. But on jun 21 2018 amount of 15 is deducted for net usage actually i have data of 800mb in unlimited pack then how come you can deducted amount of 15 for net usage. Why you are cheating like this. I need a refund of my amount, i have all kind of proof to this.

                I raised a complaint under device claim insurance last week. And my claim was rejected with the reason. Saying the accidental slipping of phone from my hand is not a valid reason for claim. Saddest service by airtel.
                Really very poor service from airtel. Now i am going to consumer court and file a case for harrashment. Looking forward to approach legally.

                  Icon services automatically activated on my number [protected] and inr35 was deducted from the balance, kindly credit back the amount as soon as possible. The request to activate this particular service was never made from my end. I even don't know what the service is. Its not justified to activate any service without request ir consent from the user.

                        I have recharged my no [protected] with rs.399.00 for 84 days plan but there is no speed found how airrel claims 4g speed when i am seeing logo h or e always in my lenevo k5
                        Airtel must check it asap or i will port out all the airtel nos to another.

                        I am surprised with the services of airrel they send sms for special recharge offers e. G. Recgarge with rs.8.00 and get facilities of call rates @.30paise for 84 days or 70 days but aftet 7 days they again start sending sms that your.30 paise ola is expiring today. They are cheating us or what they are doing.

                            I am using airtel postpaid connection past couple of years, after airtel upgrade to 4g my entire hometown area lost the network strength and connectivity. I had raised a complaint as on 29th dec 2017, case id:82098672, since it is more than 6 month i keep on following the same, but no one ready to answer my question, in fact, i had sent mail to airtel ceo and other higher management. Can this issue will be rectified or not? Who is liable for airtel irresponsible attitude?
                            Meanwhile in between our state (Karnataka) got 3 chief minister, still, airtel is trying to find the solution for the network issue. Shame less...

                              The network of airtel is pathetic. Sorry to say but the standard of airtel service is going down day by fay drastically. I get no signal in panvel karanjade area (My residense) even in airoli (My office premise). The sim is company provided & there is no network in company premises only.. Wtf... Forget about internet connection i dont even get signal for normal calling.. Pathetic.. Its worse than worst... Please stop rolling ads as fastest network service on tv channels that all fake..

                                4g wi-fi hot spot not connecting property.. But it shows the 4g tower connected signal strength is excellent... But internet is not connected. Even i've 1 gb data available for that particular day.

                                It connected and disconnected every few seconds and i can't work with this internet. I checked with agent who i'm purchased that hot spot. But they are not sure about that problem.. Because when they check it works

                                    I lost my mobile 19/06/2018 immediately i blocked my mobile through customer care. The next day i have taken new sim with same number, from that day i am not able get any incoming or outgoing. I contacted customer care, they answered me u r problem may solve with in 2days. My out going problem was solved. But my incoming issue was not solved till day. When i spoke to customer care supervisor pavani airtel service person, she need 2 more days to resolve my issue. I have been suffering since 4 days by no incoming call to my mobile. Because of their delay service i am loosing many calls, my posting of my job had become dealy by their service.

                                        I, Laxmi Narayan, Had a connection of airtel landline before. I was using it from past 3 years since Jio came.
                                        So I told airtel cc To hold my connection, and then never I used their service.

                                        In month of March, they called me to disconnect my airtel connection, I told them go ahead just disconnect it. And then they offered me 1 month free service so I said yes to reactivate.

                                        Then later on, no services were given by them instead of attaching bill amount of March in April billing cycle which was meant to be free.

                                        Before hold, I was having a due of 159 ₹ then they charged me approximately 2400 ₹ in just two months after reactivation according to them..

                                        Now They are Harassing Me Day by day for bill settlement from[protected] or many phone no.s which I've never used their service for. Also Vivek Airtel Cc told me we are going to harass me until I pay their dues.

                                        In legal way, I've only 159 ₹ to pay instead they are demanding 800 ₹.

                                        Also many times I've told them, I could pay 159 ₹ if want otherwise don't harassing me regarding this..

                                        I m asking you Where I could file a harassment case against Airtel company or hoping to sort my problem thru you.

                                        To Airtel, If After this you will call me I'll definitely put you in horrible circumstances that you will have to pay in real.

                                        Note: before demanding, kindly look into your system and listen the recording of our conversation.
