      Despite my objection to airtel unilaterally deducting roaming charges from my balance amount in my my mobile connection account they have neither refunded the amount deducted nor given any justification. My postings on their website are as follows:

      Complaint posted on airtel india website
      ‎
      Vijay bhandari‎ to airtel india
      June 2 •

      What kind of customer service is this? You want to charge me for a service which i have never opted or asked for and which has not been provided to me?

      I sent you an email reproduced below.
      Instead of a suitable action or reply i am once again sent an sms by am-airccm on 27/5/2018 reading as follows:
      "dear customer, international roaming rental charge is rs99. Due to low balance in your account, rs.0 has been deducted and balance amount of rs.99 will be deducted in subsequent recharges."

      Kindly therefore restore my balance of rs. 90/- as on 27/4/2018. My number is [protected]. Kindly do not call me but correspond by email only.

      Dear sirs,
      I am extremely surprised and perturbed to receive the following messages from am-airccm
      (1/2) dear customer, international roaming rental charge is rs99. Due to low balance in your account, rs.53.27 have been deducted and balance amount of rs.45.73 will be deducted in
      .. (2/2) subsequent recharges.

      Please note i have very little usage on your network since i rely on most of my communications through wifi.in the last 2 years i have purchased minimal amounts of pre-paid packs viz. Rs.220/- on 16/11/2016 and rs 50/- on 8/4/2018. My balance amount in the account was around rs 90/- when i left mumbai on an overseas trip on 27/4/2018. On 27th i got an unsolicited call through t-mobile which i did not pick up and i was charged for the same. Now i have received the above communication from you!

      I do not want to use your network and neither have i sought or opted for the roaming facility at any time hence all your charges after 12.50 p. M. On 27/4/2018 are invalid & illegal.

      Kindly therefore reverse all charges deducted from my account and bring back the balance to rs. 90/- or whatever it was on 27/4/2018 @ 12.50 p. M.

      Please also confirm the same without fail.
      Thanking you,
      Vijay bhandari

      Hi! Thanks for reaching out, vijay! Rental is rs 99 for 30 days. It'll be charged only when you start using incoming, outgoing or sms in international roaming. Refer: http://srkl.in/6181BIrtfS to know more. Hope this helps! Thank you, angshumon

      Vijay bhandari‎ to airtel india
      July 5 -

      I have not used airtel phone services from 27th april (When i left india) till 2nd july (When i returned to india). When i tried to make a call from the airport on 2nd july i was told my balance was less than rs. 10/- and i was not allowed to make the call. As i informed you in my earlier post of 2nd june i had a balance of rs. 90/- approx in my account as on 27th april. Where has my money gone? Kindly arrange to refund the illegal deductions which airtel has made unilaterally for no services rendered. Kindly confirm action taken by you on my no. [protected] so that i can use the services for which i have prepaid.

                Its app stole my money.

                I say stole because it took my money (Evidenced by money being withdrawn from my bank account), said the transaction failed (Thus did not give me a transaction id), and then every avenue i tried to reach out to was run by automated systems so there was no personalized care or anyone who could actually respond to my request for refund appropriately.

                Through email: the automated service kept asking for the same details that i kept telling it i did not have (I. E. The transaction id), and there was no way to connect to a human being to discuss this, it seems

                Through fb: again, automated system

                Through phonecall: impossible

                They're not giving my money back. And it's not theirs to keep. That is stealing.

                          Sir
                          On 25 jun 18 i upgraded my plan from 649 to 799 with the aim to add my child number [protected] which otherwise was a prepaid number and working fine. However, the number was added but no data was allocated or wasn't available for use for 4 days i was then advised by the airtel customer care to disconnect the child plan on [protected]. Once i disconnected this number from the family plan on 29 jun an automatic 399 postpaid plan was active and began working fine.
                          I thus readded this number to child plan and hain the data on family plan wasn't available for browsing.
                          Request resolve to ensure that i get data to use in my child number [protected] while in family plan.

                                Hi,

                                I got a message from aiterl that you're activated lifestyle Dressing room pack..and they deducted 35rs without my permission..what is happening..I called to customer care both 121 and 198 it is not working properly..AIRTEL made big disappointment..

                                This is not good for a company like airtel, customers wants to feel safe with your network.. service is worst...

                                I can't able to make a call to customer care..I didn't expect this from Airtel.

                                    I've contacted Airtel in February 18 and was promised that network related work is going on in my area. However, it hasn't been the case and there just providing fake promises to me.

                                    I've called them today and I received the same response I received in February 18.

                                    I've network problems in my area where in network fluctuates a lot.. I'm unable to access data smoothly and call drops in between as the network goes in middle of a call and I have to call back again to the concerned person.

                                    Sometimes the data speed is less than 2G speed and I'm paying more than what I use.

                                    Airtel recharges are always costly when compared to other providers and their assurance is such a ### to digest.

                                    I want this matter sorted at the earliest so that I and other customers in my area don't continue to face the same problem..

                                    No one complaints about the parachute been faulty..that doesn't mean all parachutes are perfect.

                                    Thanks for your help in advance.

                                      I AM very much upset due to your Airtel service (121). This is my first time, I am not happy with your airtel services. Absolutely pathetic and frustrating experience with Airtel Customer care.

                                      Its almost 4 days (complained on 1/07/2018) my data stopped working (have 35GB balance). Have changed the sim to new sim and checked with other sim to find if there are issues with my handset, there is no issue at all.
                                      As per the updates from customer care issues raised with the network team and they are working on that. When I contacted 515, received a SMS stating there is no complaint registered for your Airtel.

                                      I have repeatedly called up Customer Care and they have always given me false hopes that it will be either fixed in half an hour or by evening or tomorrow etc. There has be no call-back from your organization giving me any sort of assurance or update on the status.

                                      This is indeed real pathetic and pain staking attitude shown by your organization towards your customers.

                                        Hi airtel team,
                                        It is totally disappointing to mention that you have deducted 99/- from my mobile balance for the services which i have not opted at all.
                                        After speaking to one of your representative, he claims that i have opted for the
                                        Service called lifestyle dressing room service. Actually what service is it. I don't know what this service is all about.
                                        I requested to refund back the deducted amount, however the service is deactivated after calling to customer representative but he claims that i refund cant be claimed.
                                        Why is airtel doing like this. I literally lost hope on aiterl service.

                                        Kindly help me to get the refund back.

                                        Thanks,
                                        Jeevan

                                        An international roaming charge of rs 99 was deducted without consent! I did not place a request for international roaming nor did i make a call or sms from my number
                                        I live near PAC colony Raebareli. 4g airtel network gone worst since 10 days. I called them so many times and I have recording of that calls.
                                        when I'm calling to customer service thay said all nerworks are ok but this is wrong. I'm a student and I'm very upset because of the network speed. Its hurting my studies.
