My balance of 20+ rupees was deducted without any calls or messages just by using the internet even after having significant data balance, and also the airtel portal is translating the url and redirecting facebook and other google links to airtel page excessively blocking the website from accessing which is highly unjustifiable, i need an explanation for this thoroughly approved by the consumer court that you have the right to alter the url and show ads in an unjustifiable manner, if i the airtel support fails to answer this resonably, please deactivate my number

      Made a recharge of my sim for rs. 399 on may 28 2017. Received message recharge successful, validity 84 days. All these are recorded well in my account since i paid through internet on my home desktop through debit card. Since then, i cannot call (Outgoing), no internet either. Reason is i do not have balance. The co. Has not updated my account even after 4 days. Iqin

        I was using vodafone network. I decided to move on to airtel network and ported my number on 26th may 2018. On 30th may, i received a message my porting request has been approved. On same day around 9pm, my vodafone sim card was disconnected. From 31st morning on wards, i am able to make out calls. But incoming calls, sms and data services are not working. When i registered a complaint calling 121 on 31st may, the customer care executive asked me to remove the sim card from my mobile and switch it off and place the sim card again and switch my mobile on. I did the same but no luck. Again i called 121 on the same day, this time they told me to visit airtel store and get the new sim. I went to the store but the store manager said there is no problem with the sim which i was given. Again i called 121, this time they said i need to wait for 2 hours to get it activated. I have waited for 10 hours. Today i called 121, this time they are saying i need to wait for 24 hours. I am totally disappointed with four different answers and i don't know which is true. I already lost the clients who tried to call me. Airtel is not a trustworthy.

        My number is [protected]

            I did a prepaid recharge for my prepaid number on may 21, but the balance is yet to be credited in my account.
            After trying for more than 1 week, airtel's facebook chat service mentioned about the amount got deducted for "value added service".
            I never activated any value added services for my end. They have deducted money without consent which is very disappointing.
            Moreover, i have been trying to reach out to them through ivr, mail but nothing seems to work.

              Why does my Airtel internet goes on and off everytime ? I have added 3GB data per day plan and still the internet is like flickering everytime especially during monsoons.

                  I am not understanding what has happened to airtel networks after the arrival of jio, i have been using airtel from last 10 years, but now i am switching into jio. @bharti - jio isn't taking your customer, you guys are yourself giving away.
                  And i am talking about the capital city (Delhi ncr), facing issues from past 6-8 months... But got no resolution (Of course i complaint multiple times).

                        In my home i am using 3 airtel sims in 3 mobiles. All these are not working since yesterday. I switched off, removed sim and then inserted it again, then turned it on, still no use. Seems some network down.

                        But it showing there's enough signal and internet is working, but phone calls are not happening. Its trying to connect and then ending the call.

                            Hi sir,

                            I have ported to airtel recently.

                            At starting all was going fine.

                            But after 15 may, i am unable to receive sms sent from any other mobile.
                            My phone balance is ok.

                            I have already complain for the same but no action done yet, still waiting for reply

                            Please help in this regard.

                            Thanks

                              Without intimation mobistore service activated and deducted amount from my balance i didn't seen the message. So i called to customer they informed we are not refundable the amount. So i kept a port to another n/w. So my suggestion for all airtel customers don't kept balance in your account they deducted amount with out any intimation. And i asked for other airtel customers they are also getting same problem. So i think port is only option but my friends and all other airtel users suggested we need to give complaint on this because it's not only me it's deducted so many airtel users with out intimation, so they are blaming the customers i think they get huge amount in their accounts it's looks like another scam.

                                    Hi,

                                    I observed below pincode, airtel network is worst, call is not connecting and signels is very bad and keep on disconnecting. Calling parties are getting out of coverage area or switched off. Signels are very very bad. Once upon time in below places airtel was best network.
                                    Take care of it.in othercase subscribers will migrate to other operater (Idea, jio, vodafone).

                                    Pincode : 516002, 516227, 560100
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                      This is regards to the may 2018 bill cycle which enabled an international pack without my knowledge.

                                      I was out of country visiting china from 21st april to 7th june. We had a stop over in sri lanka outbound and inbound for a day each.

                                      Details of bill dated 21-may-2018 for airtel no. [protected]: total due: rs 10507.42, due date: 08-jun-2018, bill delivery date: 01-jun-2018. 15% service tax has been replaced by 18% gst. To view bill/pay online, click

                                      Here is my case:
                                      1) after my dubai trip in august i got a random call from your promotions team and was told that why don't i enable a scheme at no additional charges for free incoming free messages abroad. I remember repeatedly asking if there are hidden charges and i was told there aren't any charges to enable incoming messages while roaming internationally. So i kept my phone on.

                                      2) i would like to listen to the conversation which according your team happened in december where i approved of the plan. I do not recall agreeing to enabling any such plan. There has clearly been some mistake. I would like to hear the recording myself.

                                      3) if i had taken the pack why would i not use it. I didn't even know if it was enabled. I have not made a single call. I am being unfairly charged for entertaining random in-coming marketing messages where charges and other information is hidden and not passed on to customers. This is a clear case of cheating.

                                      4) if the pack was enabled i should have gotten a message from airtel as soon i landed in sri - lanka on 22nd but according to your team the first data pack enabling message was sent to me in china on 29th. If you are enabling such expensive data packs you need to inform customer upfront and not sneak behind their back enabling random packages and charging them a bomb.

                                      These are unfair malpractices and i will make sure to take it to consumer court if the charges are not waived. This is charging a customer without them being aware.

                                      We have been as a family of four have been loyal airtel's customer since 1996 with original phone number registered in our name +[protected] and have paid more than 10 lakhs in just bills.

                                      Even after jio was introduced we still kept loyal to airtel. We are very disappointed of this attempt to fraud the customer. We all will make sure to move to another carrier along with legal actions if this isn't rectified.

                                      These are unfair practices and as a company claiming to be the best you need to sort this fairly.

                                      Thanks,
                                      Shilpa vikram jain

                                        I've ported my no.[protected] from aircel to airtel and i've also inserted new sim but verification call to 59059 is not connecting. every time i try to call at 59059 it automatically disconnects and also i'm unable to receive incoming calls to my number. I couldn't believe how airtel is so weak in customer service.
