I had received a call from airtel they said they received a complaint regarding slow performance on xtstream, I thought my family members might’ve made the complaint and since the 5G wasn’t working that well i thought I’ll report that thing atleast. After telling my concern they said they will eventually transfer my feedback to airtel’s executives then they said have a good day and cut the phone. Am i safe from any kind of scam/hack? They even confirmed my name to which i said yes

        Respected,
        The following information was provided to me by Mr. Manpreet regarding the recharge of one Airtel sim on 2022 January 20. Upon his advice, I mailed the Airtel nodal officer to activate the SIM. The issue has not been resolved since today and Mr. Manpreet said to gain recharge, so I followed up on the same, but have not received any reply. I was recharged with INR 1000. I lost my money due to his misrepresentation. Sim is not activated, which is the main problem. Due to this reason, all of my online transactions are pending. I would appreciate it if you could clarify this issue. For your reference, I have attached a short screen shot of the mail

        I am very disappointed with the service that Airtel provides - it is terrible.

          Hi Team Airtel

          1. Where is my new SIM I had ordered from your app?
          2. How does one change address on the app?
          3. How to speak to a real human at Airtel for help?
          4. When will your phone support stop sayin "This is a different department, please call number?
          5. Why is every caller telling me your Airtel number is switched off?
          6. Why is so hard to make and get calls using Airtel?
          7. Why was there no response from nodal regarding the attached emails?

          I am very happy more and more people are now dissatisfied with Airtel, because every unhappy customer brings down the value of Airtel

          Keep up the pathetic service, you are doing a great job losing customers

          Thank you

          The best part is that nobody responded on Linkedin when this same complaint was shared direct to Airtel big tops - I really hope Airtel soon losses all their customers!!

            Respected Sir/Madam,
            The following information is to inform you that I was recharged around INR 1000/- for my Airtel sim with the assistance of an Airtel executive named Mr. Mantreep. However, I have not been able to activate my sim due to a number of problems I am facing right now. Since I am abroad, all of my OTPs, such as bank transactions and WhatsApp OTPs, are being sent to that number. So I have sent more than 70 emails to Airtel departments but they have not taken any action yet.

                  I took a plan of Rs 239 for 28 days validity and 1.5 GB per day. It usually doesn't happen but last 3-4 days I am facing problem in consumption of Airtel data. I usually keep my phone switch off at night. The data is drastically disappearing just within 1-2 hrs after opening 2-3 sites and listening 3-4 songs. It's unbelievable the vanishing of data only few activities.
                  Do the needful.

                    I had requested to permanently discontinue my airtel broadband services to the customer care on the month of june, even after confirmation I was billed for the month of july, I paid the dues even without any internet connection. Again I made a new request for disconnection on the month of july, i was assured this time that I won't be charged for rental services. But I was billed again on 06/08/22 without using any internet services, i literally have no fiber connection with the company but I am still charged.
                    I have contacted the customer helpline on multiple occasions and have even sent them multiple emails but all in vain. I can't afford to pay the monthly internet charges every month without any connection, they are robbing me in complete daylight.
                    Please resolve the issue

                        My self Arunkumar, my Airtel Postpaid number is not working so I contacted Trichy Airtel Store "No.10 Periyasamy towers College Rd, Teppakulam, Tamil Nadu 620002" for a replacement card, as they mentioned "Regarding 3rd party SIM swap for your Airtel mobile number .
                        kindly send your blood relative to the nearest Airtel store along with the necessary documents.
                        Documents required:
                        *Authorization letter in the desired format
                        * Self-attested photocopies of POI & POA (Aadhaar / voter id/driving license) of customer

                        Video call to be done in Airtel store with you and your image needs to be captured for validation with Acquisition photo."

                        currently, I am in Singapore and as per their advice I have sent all the necessary details and documents on May 24, 2022, 11:12 PM,

                        I have follow up for 2 monthy no action thy said to wait.

                        On Jul 31, 2022, 10:51 AM I have sent email to Airtel Nodal Officer,

                        On Aug 1, 2022, 7:45 PM recived email from nodal officer to send my blood relative (Father ) to the nearest Airtel store along with the necessary documents.

                        On Aug 3, 2022 My father visited the "richy Airtel Store "No.10 Periyasamy towers College Rd, Teppakulam, Tamil Nadu 620002" with all the necessary doumcnets on that day for the name shake they gave the replacement sim card to my father (but not activated till now), I wanted to know how come they can give the sim card on that day itself before that they mentioned two scenarios

                        For 3rd party SIM swap for your Airtel mobile number [protected]

                        Scenario 1: They mentioned it will take more than one month to process
                        Scenario 2: After your call and email I asked my father to visit during that time they mentioned process now changed and asked to do the same process from the beginning

                        The store representative gave the replacement sim card to my father on 3rd August around 5PM and said it will be activated within 48 hours, as now still the sim card is not yet activated.

                        Today again my father went to the store and asked why it's not activated they just saying need to check with the manager and it will take some time.

                        It's really making myself and my father also more uncomfortable by traveling up and down

                            Address: E-136, south city lucknow

                            I've booked an airtel fiber plan on July, 30, 2022 using my airtel post paid number [protected] and paid 1501.18 Rs., this order was cancelled 10 minutes later and I've got the message that my refund will be processed shortly, I thought I've been with airtel for over 8 years and I'll surely get my money, I also needed the connection because I needed the wifi for my office work so i placed another order from my another airtel number [protected]...

                            I got Airtel's Xstream Fiber internet connection on July 3rd 2022. Since then, until today, August 5th, the Internet has not worked for 10 days straight. I paid Rs. 5100 for 3 months and have not got 10 proper days of internet.

                            The last day that it worked was on July 29th. Since then, till today, I've registered several complaints but they have not resolved the issue, I work from home and need a fast Internet connection to do my work, but it seems like Airtel just won't provide a stable connection.
                            Ever since I got the connection, there has been at least 4 downtime and disconnection issues. The Airtel local technicians came home and changed the wires at least 3 times, and still the Internet does not work. Each time they come home, they keep moving in and out for 3-4 hours, make a complete mess in the house with cut wires and sellotape and dirty footprints all over the place. Despite enduring all of this, I haven't had 10 straight days of stable internet.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                    I have paid to airtel bb on 26 July and yet the connection is not installed. Local team is not responding properly. And as per them my area is too far to provide connection though they visited prior to making payment and now delaying connection.
                                    I am talking almost daily with customer care and everyday my call is being kept on hold for more than 30 mins to get a supervisor on call and raise a cancellation request.
                                    Requesting you to cancel the connection and refund me in full.
