I have lodged a complaint with customer care on 9th July 2018 Req No. 86348983. Today is 12th July 18 and still I am not able to use internet services of your compnay. Your company claim to be the fastest network. Very often I face this problem and every time it takes more than 15-20 days to resolve the issue. I am your customer since 2006 but I think this is the time to port to some other service provider. My family has 3 airtel numbers are all faces same problem. I am attaching a screen shot of my number [protected]. Do the needful at the earliest.

          My previous plan was advance rental plan which ended in July 2018. and i have updated the plan to 399 plan this month.
          I have changed my bill plan, but still my bill has included advance rental amount of Rs. 999 in the bill.
          I have called many times to customer care but they are not responding positively.
          I need a revised bill with deduction of advance rental charges.

              As claimed and mentioned Airtel is not providing 4G service properly.

              Network is very bad
              Connectivity will be good on the day of recharge but from next day it wont even connect. Its been more than 9 months being in continuously in touch with Airtel Customer care but no use. No one gives solution.

              This issue is all across the users, i have checked my own 3 connections (2Prepaid & 1Postpaid) same issue. And issue is even with my colleagues.

              Currently Airtel is the dumbest of all network providers.
              its very clear that they want to be in competition without loosing their wide margins.

                  Previews network has disconnected on 04.07.2018. I have received activation request booked message on 26th June 2018 from Airtel. Then still my new child number is not working from past two days. I have raised this complaint but still not rectified.
                  If someone called me, It is telling like Number is not reachable, But I can call them.
                  It's really Frustrating. I missed few of my Important call because of this Issue.

                            Hi,

                            This is regarding my dongle #[protected]. I would like to report that I am being mentally harassed by AIRTEL team.

                            NEED HELP ON MY ISSUE FOR WHICH I AM BEING HARASSED FOR THE PAST 45 DAYS. I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING THREATENING CALLS FROM AIRTEL RECOVERY TEAM.

                            I have been charged 10309 as some advanced rental plan which I have not even opted for.

                            I raised a complain calling the toll free number on 5th June since then I have not received any response, I have been following up every 2 days, my services have been barred I have spoken to the supervisors Mandeep Gupee. Neha, Amit etc everyone just read out a script they have. They say that the issue has been escalated and will take time. Now from past 4 days your collections/billing team has been HARRASSING me. They call me atleast 3 to 4 times (in addition to the automated calls) a day and when I said I want to speak to a supervisor they asked me to call[protected] stating that this is Varun Saini’s number and he will help me. When I called that number again I had to go through a customer service rep, narrated the entire thing and asked her get me connecte to Varun to which she stated that she cannot get me connected to him as he is the circle head THEN WHY WAS I ASKED TO CALL HIM. Then I insisted on speaking to a supervisor, got connected to Vinod Gandhi most pathetic supervisor I have ever come across. Instead o[censored]nderstanding my concern and helping me out he was adamant that the bill was valid, when I insisted on speaking to his supervisor he stated that it is not possible and cannot provide you with any resolution on call and hung up on me. I have never come across such pathetic customer service.

                            I think I have been patient enough, now I am sick and tired of this. I work in night shifts and everyday I am woken up by these calls and my entire day is disturbed .Every day I am just wasting my time on call.

                                  I have been harassed with atleast 5 to 6 calls in a day from the subcontracted agency which is following up on bill payment on behalf of Airtel. I have paid my bills already and there are no outstanding bills. I have asked the agency to stop several times over the phone and have raised a request on Airtel website aswell. There has been no resolution and this is really creating panic and amounts to mental harassment.
                                  Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                  I had taken broadband connection from Airtel.

                                  I asked the service executive that we need broadband connection in emergency for few days only. So, we applied for advance rental of 3 months for Rs.1770, but the service provider activated the connection under normal activation which we were not not aware of.

                                  I was not informed that will have to pay further bills while taking connection.
                                  I haven't used broadband connection after 3 months but still the bills are getting generated every month.
                                  I even asked your company executive to disconnect the connection when I got calls from Airtel company. But still there was no action taken regarding the issue.

                                  They send the bill of Rs. 1000 (approx). They said they have temporary disconnect the no. and i cant use further, and i said them to disconnect permanently but next month again they generate bills & still generating bills and now they are saying its 1850 and they called on daily basis for payment without using any. And still I'm getting calls of 5-6 times on daily basis. Feels so mental harassment. I complained & ask them to disconnect the no.

                                  Still they called on daily basis an they are generating add-on bills. I'm now fed up of Airtel company.
                                  I'm 15 year old customer of Airtel but this time airtel companies behavior is so bad. Now i want to switch all the mobile numbers also from airtel to other company. Seems like airtel is meant to earn only. The customer relationship & old record matters.
                                  In mobile also i going through many problems like out of coverage and automatic disconnect while taking.
                                  Airtel are now becoming worse in all manner.

                                    I recharged for 448 plan everything was fine but after 10-15 days they show their real face giving me only 20kbps-100kbps speed. I contact Airtel 2 times regarding this issue. but no help they just say that "We are investigating this issue and our technicians are repairing the TOWER". (Telling me this **** reason for 1 month).

                                    how careless they are, feels like I did a big mistake selecting Airtel. Should go for JIO.
