    Hello

    I purchased inr 2499international roaming plan for germany on 7th june 2018 from "my airtel app", before leaving india. It includes "unlimited free incoming, 5gb data, 100 sms/day, 500 minutes of local/international call".

    Since, the time i have landed in germany my 4g data is working but my voice services are not. I recharged my mobile with inr 300 today but all of that vanished as soon as i called from my mobile to india and received one voice call.

    Just look into it asap, i am losing on my professional calls and important contacts. It is very necessary that my services are restored with immediate effect.

    Also, pass me y our international customer care number over which i can call you.

    Thanks

      I generally recharged rs111/- for mobile no [protected] on 27/05/2018. But we didn't consume the balance. But when we check the balance on 09.06.2018 it is zero. On calling to customer care they are saying that it is special offer and ends in 12 days. But we dont know any special offer and recharged the plan generally and not for 12 days. Hence please return back my unutilized balance or otherwise it is rediculus and we shift to another better network service provider.

                I am a prepaid mobile subscriber of airtel. For the last three months, i have been facing this problem. I recharged my prepaid connection on 4th june for rs. 349 with order no [protected]. Now it says today on 10th june,, that there is no money available although this amount is for 28days. This is nothing but fleecing of customers. When spoke to customer care shri vishwajeet sawant at 10 am today ie 10/06/18,, he suggested that i should recharge for some money in my account to overcome this problem. Instead of looking into the problem, the company person is suggesting more recharge. The question is "why" when i have already paid for 28 days unlimited. The company is fleecing the gullible customers by overcharging and not proving the services. If my problem is not solved by monday, i will be forced to issue legal notice and file a complaint with ombudsman and consumer court

                  This complaint is regarding validity of airtel digital tv. I have recharged my airtel tv of rs 2971 on 11/01/2018, and message received that validity of this recharge till 06/11/2018. But at the month end of june on checking validity of tv is shown that it will expire on 10/072018. This type of fault happened by airtel. I just want to why these companies make our day worst, everytime this type of fault happened. I am complaining that my recharge validity till nov2018 has been changed to july 2018 by airtel tv company... I want to resolve this problem by making it easy that company will have to make proper resolution of this type of problem.

                    Dear airtel team

                    Greetings!

                    My name is akash jain.
                    I was using airtel postpaid since 2-2.5 years and recently switched to vodafone using mnp.

                    However, i have made the excess payment of rs.8, 500 for my account.
                    As i am no longer using airtel. I request you to refund the amount to my account/card at earliest.

                    I have been trying to contact airtel through my vodafone sim but not able to do so.

                    Kind regards

                        Hi,

                        I have reached out to airtel support to deactivate my connection several times, but they are not disconnecting the service, instead they tell me that a senior executive will need to discuss the reason for disconnecting the number and will call you within 24 hours and nobody calls back. This has happened more than five times and i have been getting the bills every month.

                        When i go to the airtel store they tell me that it can be done over the call only and they are not authorized to deactivate a connection. I have been hopelessly paying the bills for past 6 months.

                          Im using airtel network since 12 years, never troubled me in all those period. But now since 4 months, facing more problems regarding no network access and while coming to internet its too worst, so many times tried to contact airtel customer care for support, but no use. The worst network now to solve customers problems. So planning to shift the netwok.

                              Hi. I bought a new 4g airtel sim 2 days ago. I am able to send messages but i'm not able to receive the same on my phone. I bought a new phone and had to replace my existing sim with a new one. I don't know why i'm able to send messages alone but not receive any. I am not able to carry out any online transactions since i'm unable to receive any otp. Please look into this as soon as possible.

                                I have received sms from at-airfta informing "your request for porting the xxxxxxxxxx to airtel has been received"

                                I never made a request to change over from the present operator to airtel. Then how did this happen? Who gave my number to them? Under what basis the airtel has sent such unsolicited message? Please take necessary steps and action against airtel. Thank you.

                                Please be informed that i am very happy with my present mobile service and have not put any request for porting to airtel at all.
                                Please look into this urgently and take corrective action against these fraudulent operators.
                                Else i will have to lodge complaint against airtel with my local police station and department of telecommunication which may please be noted.
                                Your immediate action will be highly appreciated.

                                  I am using cell number [protected] and the quality of the reception is very bad. If I use my phone to make a call my contact always complains the voice break, similar when I receive a call. This s a problem is maximum in my residence address.
                                  I also use VODAFONE but it is very much better, Can you help to improve the performance ?

                                    Dear Sir/Madam,

                                    I have recharged my idea number instead of airtel number due to over sight through www.airtel.in

                                    Recharged number : [protected]
                                    Recharged amount : Rs.509/- and Date : 09-Jun-2018.
                                    Transaction Reference No.[protected]

                                    Telephonic Customer care response ; They dont know for this transaction. There is no sms confirmation to resolve and acknowledgement for this compliant.

                                    I humbly request you to resolve and see that they should return my amount.

                                    Thnaking you.

                                    Yours truly,

                                      no signal problem

                                      I was not getting any network. After trying the sim in different phones i realized problem is with sim card. I Called the customer care at 121, they advised me to change sim. I got the new sim and inserted it in the phone slot. I received the signal in 10 min and a msg stating "your services have been set. Please restart handset". After restarting i'm getting a "no service" message. What is the issue. Why do i have to keep running around...
