Hello,
I am an airtel user with a mobile number [protected]. Recently i recharged my phone for rs. 100 from a nearby shop. But when i checked it later, my phone was showing zero balance. I waited for two days but nothing happened so again i recharged it for rs.100 but this time through the internet. Money got deducted from my account but the balance on my phone still showing zero.
Please solve my problem as soon as possible because i have to deal with many urgent calls.
Thank you

    I am working in hebbal region bangalore. Today from 11.30 am there has been no service. It is now 2.00 pm. This is absolutely unacceptable and too much inconvenience. If a consumer doesn't pay bills on time you levy late charges then why shouldn't it be implemented in the reverse direction also? The number of network outages you have which causes us to not use our phones for hours together, there should be money paid to the consumer for causing inconvenience.

        I have opted for dnd service infinite time, but none of it stopped random promotional messages and calls i am getting.

        Last request date - 17/05/2018
        Registration no. - s[protected]

        It said dnd will be activated after 7 days. It's a small dumb feature, why does it take 7 days to get activated in first place. I didn't receive any confirmation on activation after 7 days. And i am still getting different promotional messages and calls all the time.

The process initiated on 29th of the may and i got a confirmation from idea on 4th june telling that 'my port out request has been completed', now my idea sim is not working and i haven't received any confirmation from airtel side, also my airtel sim isn't operational yet, after inserting my new sim, it's showing 'no service'. It's been already 15 hours i'm without network. I'm really frustrated with your horrible service. Plz fix it soon.

            I am using airtel mobile network from last 10 years and i’m using post paid. I’m staying in bangalore and in the btm it is center of bangalore, the network is very very poor and it is worst. Internet also i’m using 4g but i’m not even getting 2g internet. I’ve been given complaints many times regarding the network and internet but no use. If i’m calling to others automatically disconnect the call in between in few s comes itself and if i get call from others also is happening same. I’m paying the bill around 2000 every month and it is worst network in india. It should get it resolved asap.

                Airtel, this is too much, unknowingly this fraud company deducts charges from my main balance, now this time the magic word is whatsmob, sometime or the other with different application name, they are deducting balance, i tried calling customer care on 121, but its consuming a lot of time to reach customer care executive, after hearing and selecting infinte options, there is no direct number to call customer care executive, and the reply they give is at height of ignorance and same time arrogance, no one is bothered to give a proper reply, they blame that the customer itself went to options and selected it, what should customer do if they suddently gives popups while doing some important work. I request the consumer forum to book case against airtel for this meaningless deductions and creating such money deducting popups. I also request that consumer forum should create strong orders for repaying the amount deducted, back to the respective customers
                Thank you.

                    I am yet to hear anything on this # reference number. Have you closed this internally, without letting me know that you were not capable enough to resolve this and i port my number to some other network.

                    Alright, i am happy to port my number. But before that i want you cheaters to pay me back my complete last amount recharge rs. 448/-.

                    Post which i will stop sending this.

                    Hope you will not understand this... Because this requires brain, which you or your bloody management doesn't have.

                          Hi sir/madam

                          I have tried all the possibility to contact the airtel but i can't able to contact this is a worst experience ever.

                          My mobile number is [protected]. Somebody is using my number but that sim i am using currently. Continuously i am getting some app otp. Minimum i got 15 otp for different app. I don't know what is happening? So for that purpose. I am trying to contact to airtel but unfortunately i can't able to contact. I tried 5 to 6 toll free number but some call automatically disconnected and some numbers are invalid.

                          I don't know what to do in this situation so i am complain to consumer about airtel regards this issues.

                          Thanks & regards
                          Suresh parmar

                              I have recharged on 2/6/18 amount of 239. And next morning when iam making call. The balance of my account is showing 0.0. Where did my money go? When i called customer support they said this complaint will be taken by prepaid customer support of bihar. On calling bihar customer support there is no one to take initiative for the complaint. It shows that airtel just launches product and there is no single person to answer it. Airtel bihar has no one to settle the issues. Airtel just spend money on making advertisements and not satisfying customer. It is a company with fake ideas and protocols. It's main aim is to grab money from
                              . They say fake slogan that says happy customers.

                                      Further to our discussion I am attaching the emails that I sent to Nodal and appellate and no resolution provided.

                                      I have attached all the emails and I have shown you the bank statement today. Pls take necessary action and close the issue on priority.

                                      There are 2 issues on my mobile number:

                                      Reversal of Rs 1372 to my account that Airtel claims to have done on 14th April has not happened, this needs to be closed earliest and I want Rs 50, 000 compensation. If this is not taken care and closed in the next 3-4 days I will definitely file a case in the consumer court and also in TRAI.

                                      • My 2 numbers were merged with my primary number with no dues and suddenly AIRTEL shows dues to the tune of Rs 4000 and I need this reversal without any further follow up

                                      • I want all my customer service calls to be sent to me on priority from Nov’17 till date from your customer service team and also the calls that I spoke with Heena

                                      I have attached all the proof’s and will not share anything, but if the issue is not resolved this will be taken seriously and I will go ahead and disconnect all my 3 numbers from Airtel.

                                      Of late Airtel has been one of the worst customer service providers and I am wasting too much time handling the small issue.

                                      Naveen – I hope you can resolve the issue as I have also kept the consumer forum director in the loop in this mail.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                        Ordered iPhone X on 29th May and got a confirmation that the device will be delivered on 4th June 2018. Made the payment in full as the terms and conditions. On the portal it still shows the product will be delivered on the 4th June 2018. I made multiple follow-ups but such a careless response from customer service and the escalation team that out right said that device cannot be delivered on time.
                                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
