Airtel Complaints & Reviews

On 21april 2018, i checked tariff plan for reducing call rate to united states. I checked that on my number [protected] by dialling *121*51#, then reply to 3-2-4, and it showed rc28 for making call rate rs1.99/m to usa and canada. But when i recharged with rs28, wrong plan got activated. And airtel is denying that it's system is showing wrong information on dialling it's patent ussd code that is mentioned above.

Money suckers. They won't refund my money back.

Dear all,

I am writing this in regards to my airtel digital tv (Consumer id - [protected] registered under my father's name) recharge of inr 5800.00 approx. On 08th jan18. Before making this transaction i spoke with an agent who advised that i can choose this particular recharge and it will be valid for an year which means that this is one time payment and don't have pay anything apart from this until the validity expires (Validity is for 1 year from the date of recharge). He also advised that this is an all-inclusive package and i will have access to all possible channels exist in airtel dth. Guess what!!!. This did not happen. It's been more than a month i am not able to access most of the hd channels and a channel called "fitness studio" under the category lifestyle. For fitness studio it states that this channel is not a part of my package.

There could be more channels which i do not have access. I do not have time to keep checking the accessibility of channels and i believe it is your duty to provide service i have paid for without any faliure. I find this a major fraud. You lost me as a loyal customer big time and i am really pissed with pathetic customer service who doesn't even know how to talk what to talk. Their product knowledge is zero. They are simply not interested in helping customers neither they are willing to handover the call to their leads/supervisor on duty.

On 05th apr18, i spoke with fauzia (A customer service agent). I explained her the problem and asked her to check what's the issue and why i am not able to access all the channels. I also requested to check the recharge date and the amount. She further checked in her system and confirmed that the said recharge was successfully done in the month of jan 18 and is valid for an year. However, i was shocked to know that i have to pay another inr 100.00 as my balance is zero. I mean seriously??? Then what did i pay inr 5800 for?? And why did the agent in jan advised that i dont have to pay anything extra???

Fauzia advised me that she will raise it for the call listening and i will receive a call within 24 hrs to share the outcome but nothing of that sort happened.in fact i started receiving calls from sales team asking if i am looking for a new connection. This was another situation i could not believe my ears.

It was really foolish of me that i still went ahead and made another recharge of inr100.00 because she said that i only have to pay once (Another lie) and asked to keep the tv and dth which i indeed followed. Nothing happened for may days. No call recording/outcome was shared. No calls received till date. My inr 100.00 also got wasted. I still do not have access these channels. The fitness studio still displays "this channel is not a part of your package". This is so frustrating. This issue continued.

On 11th apr, i spoke with deepak from lucknow call centre and asked him to transfer me to his lead or supervisor on duty as i had enough. He provided me a reference number 73154191. I thank him for providing the reference number which fauzia failed to provide and said that there is no reference number for this call. Coming back to deepak, he could not let me speak with any higher authority and said that i will receive a call from them in 4 hours which never happened till date.

This is a complete scam. You guys encourage customers to spend he'll lot of amount but do not provide a satisfactory service in return. You don't even care what customer is trying to say and understand the inconvinience. The customer service doesn't even bothered to resolve. I am 200% sure that i will be still ask to pay more and contunie to ask in future.

How can i forget. Another instance, i would like to raise is that i received an email yesterday asking me to pay inr 195.00 and the deadline mentioned was 20th apr18. This is absolutley crazy.

I don't think i have to explain any further. Kindly refund my 5800 plus100 and fix the issue. If this is not happened and you failed to fix the issue. I would like have to money refunded anyways and withdraw the membership. I am happy to switch to a different company. I cannot take this incompetency any longer.

I look forward to your response.

On march 13th i ve applied for mnp from my aircel number to airtel but they have shown no response
Its not activating customer service replied to wait for some more time or visit store
I visited store they replaced with new sim and ask me switch on after 4 hours by the way its not working even after 4 days
They even called and referrals are over
They even visited home for confirmation long back but the sim is not activating so far
Poor response from airtel
Highly inconvenient for customers
There are other services who take thier customers seriously and fix their problems as soon as possible

I am a tourist here in india. So the story goes like this: i bought an airtel sim a week ago in pondicherry with the 90gb plan all pre paid. Its a week after and i still have no signal. 3 times i called each time i call the service center they tell me to try re inserting the sim and waiting 3-4 hours until it starts working. Feel like i have been ripped of and the sim will never get reception. Please help me

Airtel has deducted whatsmob service activate charge which I don't even know. They have deducted @ Rs 150/- per month with consent of the consumer, which is not only unethical but tantamount to committing fraud. Gullible customer are being taken for a ride for which company must be hauled up and subjected to heavy financial punishment.

I have an airtel bihar number which was in postpaid plan. I requested to change it to prepaid. Prepaid is done on 10th april 2018, from that time till now i m not able to recharge it in any way. Airtel store people sent a mail to higher authorities but couldn't get resolved. Customer service suggest to go to airtel store but nothing happened. I m stuck with this sim. I need to recharge so that i can make call/messages. Airtel twitter service also say, it will be done in 2 days then 4days but nothing happened. Urgent resolution is required.

I had launched a complain to airtel almost a month ago and then i mailed them too and then also contacted via telephone again but my problem with upload speed is not solved yet.
In a 4g enabled phone with a 4g connection i am getting almost 350kb/s upload speed in youtube which is horrible. My pincode is 700124 and this is a 4g covered area and airtel's open network program also shows this area as a 4g covered area.in my house i am getting this slow upload speed where my download speed is upto 4mb/s and when i told these to airtel they said it is a issue with indoor connection. Airtel said they will solve this problem within 1week but they didn't.

My airtel number is: [protected]

The # network ever seen... It gives add for world's fastest 4g network... My a*...

Couldn't even open google chrome for like a min.

Google maps are still loading for half n hour to calculate the route in the city...

Like right besides the tower which it showed in open network there is no signal at few times..

Even if i let them see what's the issue... Those urls are also not working...

And because of that i have lost many clients while dealing with them... Just because bad reception..

I had idea... And i was so happy with it...

Airtel has made it miserable... I hope if it doesn't resolve it i am going back to idea asap

On 18/04/2018, i applied for a new airtel connection with all the required kyc and photographs at a local dealer without any business name who also sells paan, cigarettes and other nitty gritties at vip road, six mile, guwahati-781022; he also does recharges. The sim no.[protected]u, imsi no. [protected] and the mobile no. [protected] (Packed on: 24-feb-2018). The dealer also charged rs. 50/- for handing over me the sim card. But even after more than 72 hours the sim hasn't been activated/provided connection. I request you to activate/provide connection to the sim asap. My contact no. Is [protected]. Thanks and regards ~ soyuz sharma, guwahati-781022, assam.

Airtel network is deteriorating day by day. Out of 24 hrs, i have to keep searching and registering for the network for atleast 12hrs. Due to this i have missed immensely important calls. I have suffered a huge loss due to the poor network facility. There is zero network. I had made a complaint earlier but you guys paid no heed. There is absolutely no network on my airtel sim, therefore i cannot even call the customer care/ support.
You guys have started taking customers for granted. But this time i mean serious business.
I am issuing a serious complaint against airtel in the consumer forum and trai. I am also filing a case against you for cheating the customer and looting money and providing zero service.
I will see to it that your goodwill and reputation burns down.
Airtel will have to compensate for my losses.

I had converted my airtel postpaid account to prepaid by clearing all the due as per my airtel app. Now after that i am getting message for postpaid bill amount. I am not able to find the details of this amount neither it is showing in the app. Tried contacting customer care but all fail. Myairtel app customer support also does not redirect me properly. I am not sure whom should i contact. I am not going to pay any over burden charges due to this mesh. Airtel should work on customer complaint and services sections.

[protected] airtel ke customers ko call ker ke unko bolta hai ki aapka number band ho jayega aapne apna number aadhar link kerwane ke bad ek message nahi kiya the. Agar aap apna number on rakhna chahte ho to apne sim ke back side number ko 121 pr send kro aur message aane pr uska reply 1 kr dena. Aapka number thodi der mein band ho jayega. Aur new airtel sim number on ho jayega. Fir message aata hai aapka number kisi or sim number per activate ho gya hai. [protected] is number se jo call krta hai wo humara number apne new sim number per activate ker ke humare number ke sath fraud ker rha hai. Please [protected] is no se aayi hui koi call mat uthana
