        Waiting or almost six months, constantly following up with airtel customer service get my network issue resolved, all in vain
        No body has bothered to visit my place to assess the issue. All i receive is one generic response that they are working on the upgradation.
        Six months past and nothing worked, customer services refuses to give a timeline for resolution.
        Sent an email to nodal, and they asked me to wait for another week, post one week will complete appleate and launch a consumer redressal

        Have vented out my frustration in constant tweets and fb posts
        Don’t know what to do.
        Airtel customercare is one of the worst in my experience

          Airtel has fraudulently activated the whatsmob services on numbers [protected] (Prepaid) and [protected] (Postpaid). Secretly deducting money without my knowledge. This is called cheating. I have requested to stop such stupid services on my phone numbers.

          I work in telecom sector, so don't try to fool me by saying teach me i have activated it by my self by mistake.

          You are requested to cancel the whatsmob service and not activate again.

            I have a bought a new airtel postpaid connection on 6th april 2018 in chennai. At that time i submitted a copy of aadhar card (Which has the address of my native) together with verification done with fingerprinting. They asked me to provide the chennai address where i am staying, i was informed they will come for address verification. On next day i got call regarding address verification. They asked where i am staying i infromed that address. Then they asked when i will be available as i was out of city that day i asked them to come on monday after my office hours if they want to see me in person. But they issued the status as address cannot be traced and my number was blocked. Then i reached the help of customer care for which they told to contact me the nearest airtel showroom. When i visited the showroom they told that i need to purchase new number as i cant get the same number back. Unfortunately i linked all my bank accounts and uan pan, everything to this new number. I cant change the number. I cant receive the bank otp's, currently i was told that the address re verification was initiated and it ll get activated within 24 hrs.

                Hi, i need some urgent help please. My mobile number was deleted without any notice. I’ve been using this number from past 10 years and all of a sudden this number stopped working and airtel customer care as well as airtel store people informed they are not able to find any record of this number and it looks like this number was deleted.
                The problem is that i have this number updated in all my bank accounts as well as in all my policies i have enrolled in and to make matters worse i’m not available locally in india to sort out this matter. I have been getting all my one time passwords on this number only and now this number not working has made all my account transactions inaccessible. With this i’m no longer able to make any payments and not even able to transfer funds to any other account.
                I am in a very hopeless situation and writing to you for any help you could do from your end.

                My mobile number which was deleted is [protected]. My email id is [protected]@gmail.com
                Please let me know if any further information is required.
                Just to further update i got aadhaar also linked back in oct.

                    The problem i’m facing in order to get refund of the unsuccessful transaction done while recharging my airtel dth account no. [protected].
                    I initiated an online transaction to recharge my airtel dth through yes bank net banking using myairtel app on 12/feb/2018 but the transaction was not successful & my yes bank account was debited with the amount. Then later on that day i again recharged my dth which got successful. The details of the transactions are as follows:-
                    On 12th feb 2018 i tried to recharge my dth account twice, out of them one got successful & the transaction reference numbers are:-
                    1. First transaction[protected] – didn’t get any confirmation for this transaction of rs.299 but the amount was deducted from my yes bank account and the same is not refunded yet.
                    2. Second transaction[protected] –transacted using another bank account, got successful & my dth get recharged by rs.299.
                    Initially i raised the request with the airtel and got the reply (Reply mail attached) that the recharge has failed & they haven’t received the amount so they cannot refund the same.
                    Then i raised a complaint with the yes bank and they have given the confirmation (Reply mail attached) that the amount got successfully credited into the merchants account so they cannot refund the same.
                    As both the parties are denying to refund the amount i kindly request you to intervene in the matter to get the refund as early as possible.
                    I am also attaching the correspondence done with both the parties for your reference.

                        Hi, about rs.70 have been deducted from my prepaid account for health yoga service which i have never opted for!

                        I tried to reach airtel helpline through 121 and many other options but to no avail!

                        This is unacceptable. I want a full refund. I have been a loyal airtel customer for a very long time and i am hoping i would get a reply and a solution for problem asap!

                          Hi airtel team,

                          I have been applied with non used international data roaming charges on my postapid number and bill amount is approx. 20000+, which is just not feasible for me to pay the huge amount.
                          Though i have been provided with a 4720 waiver off on these, from nodal office, but it was agreed, that i would be only able to pay the bill amount of 50% out of these charges.
                          Kindly provide me waiver off, of further 5000rs. So that i can pay the amount remaining.
                          Further, as i have been paying my monthly rental regularly, so it comes from no where, that you can barr my number services.
                          Kindly un-barred all the services on my postpaid number, as i am facing all sort of banking and financial issues, due to the number not in active state.

                            I recharged my airtel number [protected] with 400 through my airtel app unfortunately the transaction was failed but the recharge money 400 was deducted from my account after some time again 400 was deducted. Totaly 800 was deducted for failed transaction.10 days have been completed till the money was not refunded. This was totally unfair.
                            Refund my money as soon as u can

                              I recharged the airtel digital tv on 3rd april, i received a msg regarding the same, the recharge is successful. On my account the balance shows, but i have no tv services till date. A msg is displayed in the screen, please recharge. Again i recharged today, 12 april, same no services yet. And the irony is, the balance keeps getting deducted from my account despite no tv services being offered. Airtel dth number [protected].

                              Why have i even recharged for the month of april, if i'm given no services for the same month. I want a refund.

                                Airtel relationship store says that i need to wait for 90 days for postpaid to prepaid conversion on the same network (Airtel). However, airtel customer care number representative said otherwise. As far as i know, 90 days rule is only for mnp for one operator to another. Airtel people are fooling customers who are not aware of these laws. Please take strict action.

                                      Sir/madam,

                                      I have thought airtel provide good network and took airtel sim recently infact ported from vodafone to airtel.

                                      This guys says its fastest network in india 4g, but it doesnt come even 1g also in my home, everytime i open my you tube videos its keep loading for longer time.

                                      And whats app vidoe messager video thoo cant do at all with this speed! I normally take work from home for office work, but i wont get proper network due to this slow speed of data network.

                                      For the airtel executive whomsever its concern : indias top rated network you call yourself for the airtel, do you have any basic things working for it?
                                      It keep disconnecting inbetween the call and everytime i should call second time to continue conversation, this happens when i stand outside of home.
                                      Inside home thooo.. Its worst, opposite person not able to hear at all.
