This complaint is regarding not resolving the query and issue and disconnecting the call, talking rudely.
I have called for a query on 28th april 2018 around 11:50 am for the first time without solving my query the call was disconnected intentionally, when i called second time and asked the second person to raise a complaint and ask the complaint number again my call was disconnected. Telling that complaint cant be raised, when i asked to let me talk to the senior person since they are not resolving my query and they are not ready to launch the compliant my call was disconnected intentionally again. Third time again i called they did not resolved my query. I request you to help me registering complaint against them and please provider me complaint number. Please do not put anybody on the call at least they should have decency to talk to the customer and listen them with patience. Hope airtel will help me here.

    This is seriously an unfortunate situation where a company like airtel spends crores of money in publishing and advertising to get customer from other telecom sadly i have been a victim, i was useing vodafone for appx 10yrs where in their services and network became worst untill i decided to move to airtel just fewdays back and i consider it has my biggest mistake airtel is far more worst than vodafone in terms for network issues inspite their system says i have many signal tower around me it does not help me considering im useing a lastest smartphone samsung s9 i have been faceing netowrk issues, call drops, low network signals from the time i have ported i have attached screenshot of my area below. I hope some thng can be done on this

      Airtel has activated super store in my number in November. They have been deducting 99 Rs every month. Today I shouted at CUSTOMER CARE representative called Sankaran. He deactivated the service but he has given back only the last 99 Rs.

      He said "it's a third party service and they don't know what is super store!". What liars these Airtel are? They want us to believe Airtel balance is deducted for 3rd party service!!! He said "you only activated the service". After I told there is no such message in my sent items he gave flippant answer "may be it was activated in a 3rd party website". Are they thinking we are ### to believe this "story"?

      I want refund of all the 99 Rs that has been deducted so far. I will definitely file a case if it is not done - a simple google search shows Airtel has cheated lots and lots of people with this super store fraud. It could be lakhs of crores of customers' hard earned money. Airtel, give me back my money or face the consequences.

        Sir /madam,
        I had a post paid connection of airtel no [protected] last eight months I am not using the service. I approached airtel store at veraval to close the connection but they denied to close and said system problems every time. Mean time the SIM and mobile lost from me. I blocked the NO from customer care.if I did not use the services why I pay the only plan amount due to airtel system problem. Please waive the plan amount due on the no [protected] and close the connection.

        Regards

                    I had lost my old sim card, after which new was issued. But while feeding data initially my name was typed wrongly. Now when I issued new sim card, my adhar biometrics are matching but name is not and hence it is not getting activated.i have visited Airtel office several times but nothing has been done. Very poor response. Whenever I visit I am told that it is software issue . if everything is computerised and human intervention is not possible then why customer care centres have been opened

                          I fail to understand how my money can be deducted from my balance without my approval.

                          What the hell is vemes? Why has my money be deducted for this? Now i don't have any balance for my hello tune? This is ridiculous!!

                            Website: airtel.in

                            I have one mobile connection of airtel (Postpaid) from j&k. My family is residing in bangalore. She also has a airtel connection (Prepaid). I got to know of the family connection plan of airtel and went to one of the airtel store. For this i had to transfer my connection to bangalore, and got one new sim which was activated in no time. They added my wife number as family number and gave me one more number as child number, which they told that it will be coming under my present plan (799* without taxes)
                            But now when i checked my bill it was unusually high, which when enquired they told that it is the previous balance amount. I dont understand this logic.
                            Please help me out

                              I did the recharge of 448 it was not successfull, Payment has been dibited from PayTM, Once I go to airtel site using my number ([protected]), Get the messeges there payment is hold from bank. Let me know one thing once made the payment from PayTM then how it has been hold from bank?

                              Airtel is very populur brand in India, so don't make the fool to customer. I am waiting for my refund since 7 days still no luck.

                              Please refund my mony ASAP.

                              It was first recharge for me after porting from Idea to Airtel.It seems I took the wrong decision.

                              I suggest to everyone don't go with Airtel.

                              Thanks,
                              Neeraj

                                  I want to seek a speedy resolution to the delayed release of the salary of a deo. The employees salary are already 2 months late i. E march - april. I have already aired this concern to your department earlier but there has been no action until now. Thus i decided to write an official complaint in a hope of receiving a faster response. I know the company recognizes the importance of its employees and i hope that our rights will continuously be upheld by the company..
                                  Thank you.
