Address: Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, 500054
Website: www.airtel.in

I have been following for my sim [protected] activation from feb'18 last week on my personal account after all the documents at chintal airtel store hyderabad-500054

I tried so many customer care executives at begumpet and airtel store chintal (500054). But there is no use.

All my financial transactions and important calls failed because of airtel.

People says me they are working for resolution from last 45 days.

Some of begumpet supervisors and team leader and escalation manager, people are giving false commitments and nobody is working for resolution.

01. Mahesh-supervisor
02. Ramya — supervisor
03. Vinay — supervisor.
04. Sai nath — supervisor
05. Subramanian — supervisor
06 bhargav — escalation manager : he is saying let you hold on call, he don't have any problem. — useless team.

I frustrated with everyone of airtel staff.

These people are behaving with customers like this. (45 days is not a enough time for resolving??? And teaching me airtel process.)

        I'm here for the problem regarding your network of airtel. The problem is as soon i starting to use internet or sending sms or any activity on my cell after 2 to 3 minutes, the internet not working, it's not working with upload or download speed inshort situation like i've no net connection and when i send the sms the sms doesn't sent. It is like the interval that airtel services don't won't us to use their services for which we have paid
        Area: mansa, gujarat
        I'm not including mo. No. Ncz it is general problem in our area

          I have been charged excess for no use of the data card on my post paid card. I have been using rather not using the airtel data card since a few months and i am still billed excess beyond the post paid amount i am contracted to pay every month. I have not activated any additional service on the data card, why are additional services being activated and charged for without my consent.

          I have made excess bill payment in the last few months and i don't intend to continue to do so in future. I had like the amount to be waived off that i was promised for. I have made multiple calls to place the complaint about the same and also asked for a confirmation mail or text regarding the waiver amount which i have not received and you have conveniently added it to my next bill as pending amount. I want the bill settled from your end and would like to discontinue the service i have not been using.

          I would have continued to pay the bill happily without even using the services for the amount that i have agreed upon. But why am i being billed so much in excess when i don't even use the data card.

          I want this addressed at the earliest and clear my pending amount and disconnect the services. This is the second time i have a terrible experience with airtel. I never would want to use your service nor would i ever recommend to anybody. I would like to close my association right here. And want no mails or calls from your end. Or else i will have to file a case for harassment.

            Its been a week since i am facing this issue. I have a plan of 1gb per day and 6gb addon data. I have a total stored of around 40 gb from the unused data carried on so once i exhaust my 1gn per day quota why i am a getting slow speed. Its as slow as 30kbps and is very very frustrating!!! I never had this issue in past.

            Please listen to my request and do something about it

              I am receiving unwanted sms charged to my mobile number [protected] airtel prepaid account by a$ftarot although i have registered for dnd. Each message eats away my currency by re.1 or less. Please stop this nuisance. This messages operate only during night, between 11pm and 5 am. So far i received about 20 such messages. Is airtel purposely doing this?

                I'm using airtel sim for last some weeks... And the main problem here is that whenever i am searching network there is not airtel network as result...
                You are claiming that your network is the fastest network,, but i am challenging that your network is the lowest, weekest and baddest network of the world.

                If you have dare prove me wrong.

                    Airtel claim fastest 4G network but in Vaishali Nagar and Pratap Nagar, Jaipur download speed of Airtel 4G is 0.4MBPS .
                    When complaint at [protected]@in.airtel.com reply received in your area our network is good means they feel customer is not important for them.
                    Airtel gives there add in TV that fourth time okhla said fastest 4G network in India but this is not true in Jaipur capital of Rajasthan speed found 0.4mbps which is slower than 3G.

                      I made an online recharge via PayTM app for Airtel Tamil Nadu - Prepaid for Rs. 509. PayTM showed me a confirmation for the same after 5 mins, but even after waiting for 20 mins, I didn't receive a recharge on my mobile. After navigating for 1 hour on an IVR call at PayTM, I was told that my issue can only be resolved at the operator.

                      At this particular time, I did not even know what the issue was, I thought it was simply a case of bad transaction. Airtel told me that Paytm will "self" realize their mistake and refund my money in 10 working days. When no such procedure started on Paytm's side, I decided to contact them again. After threatening them with a Consumer's Court complaint, I got them to contact me. They told me that I recharged the number "[protected]" instead of "[protected]".

                      After this I contacted airtel. After Waiting for 30 mins on an IVR call, I finally could speak to a service rep. He basically denied any assistance outright and told me that it was my mistake. I asked to speak to the manager. The manager after telling me that he could help me, told me that as I have made a mistake in more than 1 digit, the case is hopeless and that I have basically lost Rs.509.

                      They fail to understand that even though I have made an error in more than 1 digit, it's human to do these mistakes and the company policies should be flexible enough to ensure that their customers do not incur such losses.

                      I am hence using this platform to complaint about this issue, and hoping for a refund.

                          I am from Ahmedabad & using Airtel postpaid connection. But 4G internet speed is dead slow. Due to that i am forced to use another network. Also, i have checked the net Speedtest 0n OOkla, but its really very poor. I made a complaint 4-5 month back as well. But no activity happened for resolving this issue. I am attaching the image of Speedtest as well.

                            Here the network is really very pathetic.
                            You guys are just advertising about your company that airtel has reached many places and with a good network coverage etc etc but to be very honest this is fake you guys are running business but service, , , , , , as i mentioned earlier is pathetic, to get the good 4G signal, I have to come outside of my compound. That's pathetic, only 2G signal is available inside the compound and home, even this also not good. Previously I was using other provider, was better than your network. Please solve the this issue ASAP.

                              Whenever working on network and being online the internet connection drops and when I check the broadband router it shows only 2 lights blinking rather than 3 when the connection is steady.Post 2-3mins the network comes back online. This has been happening since airtel has upgraded the router to support the V-fiber net . The drop in network connections is constant since the last 2-3 months and no action has been taken on this post several complaints about the same. Airtel service is good but no idea why this cannot be resolved.This causes a lot of pain and irritation especially when we are connected to office and doing work.Due to this work is affected and metal stress increases.

                                I subscribed for Airtel's broadband connection, with which, they promised to provide one year's free amazon prime subscription.
                                I have been calling the Airtel employee for about 2 months and he's been giving excuses and not providing immediate help or information.
                                The helpline numbers the company has provided just plays the same recorded messages which are very frustrating.
                                I am very irritated with this behavior of the employees and the company.
                                I want immediate response and compensation or else I'll have to take further actions.

                                  Hi, I am using Airtel number 9972*****4 from 13+ years, last week suddenly the mobile number got disconnected without any intimation, now I am not able to use my mobile number, as I was using from long time this number was linked to many other. When I called Airtel customer care they said, you are not using this number from 45 days, but I reached every month, I have proof about all those. This is very pathetic, I visited near by Airtel center around 5 times, but nothing happened. Looks like one of worst service Airtel have. Looking for immediate resolution
