I am using airtel no: [protected] (With 275 rental) since last 4+ years.

But unfortunately, i am receiving wrong bill details since activation. I have made lot of complaints but no improvement while it increases with unnecessary charges which i paid, like:

 hello tunes were set with any confirmation.
 unnecessary charges applied.

Even said number services has been stopped by which i am facing lot of problem.
Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
We installed the airtel digital tv for 1 year.
It started non working mode after 1 week and no proper repose from airtel .
The most worse service in INDIA .
No One from airtel going to give the answer properly .It is the most worse service every i seen .

    I have logged network related issue past two month before till now it's resolved.
    Even from airtel network technical engineer came to my room and checked and told me that the network is worst. Every month my bill generating with rs 100 discount. And i really don't know how this bill coming as i am not using mobile data and voice call service on that extend.
    I request just give me full discount on my bill until and unless this is resolved by the airtel.

        Dear team, on my airtel postpaid bill for the period of 02-may-2018 to 01-jun-2018, an amount of inr 10 has been charged for sending two sms to international no[protected] which is also mentioned on the bill whereas i have not sent any such type of sms. This is totally fraud & unacceptable from a customer point of view, its a not about inr 10, its about wrong or unacceptable reason for charging extra amount.

            Hi sir,

            Yesterday 05th june 2018 around 12:30 pm to 1 pm, one fraud transfer of 25000 rs happened from my father's icici bank account[protected] using debit card details to airtel money. My father ram achal singh already filed report in local police station.

            That fraud person (Pankj kumar sharma name told on phone call) asked account and debit card details over phone and did this transaction.

            Please revert this transaction.

              Hi,
              I recently added rs 509 currency to my dad's cell by mistake, wherein my intention was to recharge my mom's cell (Via paytm app). When i contacted customer care to reverse the same, they are saying tat my dad's number already has a package worth rs 499, which was activated just 2 days back. And so they won't be able to cancel or transfer the amount to my mom's number.
              Very strange.. Looks like anybody can loot indians.. For me 500 is a big amount but wondering if airtel is thinking the same..
              Thanks

                Hi,
                I have raised a port request from airtel postpaid to prepaid. Currently my postpaid is not utilised as i have got my comapny mobile. On 19th may i have visited airtel store and raised a request. The store executive taken my details (Adhar verification) and gave me a new sim. He told me that it will take max 7 days.

                Till date nothing has happened. I had to visit that store twice. I had repeatedly send emails and called customer care. Nothing has happened till date.

                    I switch my connection from jio to airtel... I can not able to take the proper speed.. It is just 5-10kbps.. My phone can not able to catch the 4g network.. And on 3g service, my speed is just very low and cant be able to load the single page... Your coustner executive says that my signal strength is excellent.. Then why i cant be able to use the service? Airtel is just the crap.. Cant fulfill my needs and have to shut my connection early if it takes much time to recover.. Phone number is [protected]

                      My airtel dth tv monthly plan is rs 399/month 30 days. If i recharge on 6th of month my 30 days expires on 5th of next month but airtel disconnect the connection two days advance means on 3rd day of next month they disconnect the connection, which is wrong and cheating.
                      My connection should be alive till midnight 12'o clock of 5th day of next month.
                      Now its my wish when i have to recharge my connection but airtel starts penalizing the customer for not recharging the connection in two days advance as per their notification.
                      If i don't have money i am not recharging it, why i should be penalizing for it.
                      My suggestion is it must be "hourely based" monthly rental, as per customer uses like electricity bill, png gas connection, water connection so on.

                          Airtel has activated superstore on my number without any intimation. They have deducted rs.99 for this. I have called airtel representative but he told me its non-refundable. How could airtel do this to their customers without customer's consent. I want my money to be refunded. Otherwise i am going to file a case.
                          Please check into the matter as soon as possible.

                            I have taken an airtel dth hd package for rs.3250/- for one year free package channels.
                            1) my airtel digital tv id is.[protected] and the transaction id is[protected]. This was activated on 31.05.2016. The voice message i receive for the validity is up to 20.05.2019 which supposed to be up to 31.05.2019.
                            Why this difference?
                            2) i was promised that i would get all the channels including hindi and english along with the tamil channels. But i get all the channels except hindi and tamil channels. When i contacted the customer service, he said it is already activated and cannot help. Now i feel the very purpose of installing airtel dth is defeated.
                            I do not need the other language channels except tamil, hindi and english.
                            What is the use of having malayalam, telugu, kannada, oriya and bengali channels if i do not know the language.
                            Please remove all these channels from my package and restore tamil, hindi and english channels only.
                            Thanking you.

                              I have bought a phone from airtel online store, made payment on 31st may.
                              Airtel customer care people misguided me and informed me ill need to convert my prepaid airtel no to post paid if i want a delivery of my phone, in case i dont convert my phone will not get delivered . So i rushed to airtel store to get my no convered as today when delivery person from airtel arrived he denied to handover me phone because he informed customer care people fooled me and in order to give me phone he had to convert my prepaid no to postpaid and then he himself cancelled my order . After making me wait for 5 days i got to know i have been fooled by airtel company . I paid amount for phone that company was using for them without giving me services and now unwantedlt they converted my no to postpa. What is te use for me if i dont get phone . They are also denying to convert my no to prepaid again .

                              They are just making money by fooling there customers there’s motive is just to steal money from customer instead of 200 forcefully i will need to pay them 400+ taxes to them each month now . Also i dint get phone for which i wait for 5 days

                                    I (Sunil basak) went to airtel franchise store in dharampur opposite to lic building, dehradun (U. K.) for port in of my idea prepaid no. [protected] to airtel as i heard that services of airtel is better but the executive services and monopoly disappointed me. Ms. Simran (Executive) took rs. 50/- from me as port in charges. When i asked for receipt for the charges. She refused.
                                    I have confirmed and got to know that no charges is being asked for port in customers. Kindly look into the matter seriously as this small negligence put a bad image on company

                                      Airtel has deducted Rs 15 from my account for a service called whatsmob which I haven't subscribed to. I called the consumer care helpline and they were not able to give me any information about the service either.

                                      This is not the first time that Airtel has done something like this, and to top it off, they have made it very hard for customers to complain as you cannot find the customer care number on their website.

                                      I want my money back.
