    As my number has been port to jio in february and advance payment cleared 600 rs only 70rs due amount pending for the cycle 12 january to 12 february. Payment cycle.

    Then how 257rs amount due pending for the march, as i have already ported before 12 february.

    I am ready to pay only 70 rs due, but not march amount because i have not used your airtel service. How you generate march bill.

    How i switch to airtel again and why recommend to my friends to switch to airtel, as airtel is generating without using airtel service bill.

    Number: [protected], airtel account: [protected]

    Please clear my issue asap.

    Airtel is changing unused service bill, this not good.

        Team,

        I have ported my number from vodafone to airtel. Since morning, the activation status is "pending for activation". When i spoke to customer care executives, they told another 4 hours, it would be active. It has passed almost 14-15 hours since past morning. Still, there is no progress. I can make outgoing calls but no incoming/sms. I can't even generate an otp for any transaction. I spoke to 6 people in the customer care for to find a reason for "pending for activation". I am really frustrated with your service even before starting using the service. Your customer care people don't even know to explain what is happening and what went wrong in the activation. I have never seen this much delay in the activation process. They even said that it is escalated to activate it real quick. But still no response. Do you people think that we are fools to hear the same reason every time?

        Thanks,
        Gowtham

                          Hi team,

                          On feb 2018 i paid inr 500 for broadband connection in my area for 40 mbps plan, but after some days airtel people said that they can't provide 40 mbps plan in that area, so i asked for refund. I'm still waiting for my refund money but no step has been taken.
                          I have already raised complain that has been closed, please take the necessary steps.

                            I had done my airtel recharge my no [protected] of rs. 149 for 28 days in which i am getting unlimited calls, 1.5 gb per day, 100 text messages per day. But you give me only 1 gb per day but as my offer i have 1.5 gb per day.
                            In future i will never get this problem airtel. As comparatively jio is the best.
                            Airtel is the fraud connection

                                  Got a message from airtel on 4
                                  16th april 2018 1:53 am mentioning that namkeen pack services has been activated on my phone for 3 days and they deduct 15 rs from my balance for a 3 days and this would be automatically renewed after 3 days. This is very cheap trick to earn money.

                                  My concerns are
                                  1. What is that service all about
                                  2. How did the value added service got activated without my consent

                                    4:45 am in the morning my balance was deducted by 49 in the name of mastipack which i nevee subscribed. Is this some kind of joke. What makes you think it is okay tto deduct money without even asking. Is this some new way to earn money by cheating people. Please rectify it as soon as possible. This is very wrong airtel is becoming one of the worst networks due to frauds like this

                                      I had requested upc code of my airtel mobile no [protected] via sms to 1900 since i wanted to port out of airtel due to poor network coverage in my area.

                                      But still i haven't received upc code, i had also talked to customer care executive but didn't help..

                                      Airtel is getting worst day by day, didn't expect such cheap behavior from airtel, totally frustrating.
