Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I had made payment my last bill of Rs.124/-, still the Airtel has suddenly barred outgoing services today stating I need to pay amount of Rs.507.83 immediately.

This Amount of Rs.507.83/- includes last month and current month bill (Rs.123.68 +Rs.38415/-)
The due date of the Current bill is 8th of every month. But they have included previous month bill showing overdue and barred my services.
They have done this inspite of the previous bill Rs.124/- paid through My airtel app. and they are insisting that I have to pay the current bill too for getting my incoming services back.

I am feeling frustrated as this is nothing but harrasment at no fault of mine.

Even after making the payment my services is been barred.
This was the automatic message received from Airtel after making the payment on 20th March 2018.
"Bill payment of Rs 124.0 for your airtel mobile [protected] has been processed successfully. Txn ID: 681468. The amount will be credited to your mobile account within 48 hrs. Now pay through myairtel app and get discount coupons every time. To download the app, click airtel.in/myairtel"

I am an user of airtel network for last 10 years. My number is [protected]. Originally it was postpaid but i got port in prepaid for last 02 years. Presently i am residing in gali no. 4, chalera, noida up. For last one month i am am facing acute problem with network for voice call as well as in data. I called the airtel executive on 12118 for lodging complaint but he replied that we don't have information about prepaid. Hence he given a number [protected]. I have tried several times this number but call could not matured.
Company is not providing the proper complaint site or contact number. Itr means there is a problem with company's network.
It is therefore requested to ask the company's officials to resolve the issue immediately.
Company may also be directed not to make public fool by giving base less advertisements.

Dear sir,

I was used airtel dish tv from last two years unlimited plan for year with paying huge amount to you. Mainly this amount pay to you for all channels and your company simply massage me (Due to price hike by star network thier channels withdrawl from your pack).
Sir, how you withdraw these channel from our pack, we already paid you for one year and how you people decided that these channels are withdrawn at this important period of ipl.
Due to this we are very disappointed and want to change dish connection this is very horrable you people advance take money from public and change of pack as per your convinience.

This is worst service i was seen ever.

I have been in airtel network for last 6 years but now i think it is the time to say good bye to airtel.
I have to dial a number multiple times to connect to a particular number. It says that "all lines are currently busy, try again later" and sometimes call automatically gets ended without any sound, called customercare as well, the only solution they will have is switch off and switch on the device and i know its never gonna work coz i have tried everything. It really irritates a lot when you are really in hurry, and make a urgent call but your call could not get connected.
I need to carry a extra back up basic phone with idea or vodafone sim in it.
Waiting for response...

Whenever i stop any service, another services automatically gets activated. I feel like cheated. Please stop all this.

I had 2 phones on airtel secure, 1st one is samsung s8+, accidentally my phone got slipped out my had and back side glass of my phone is broken. I have raised the case with airtel for the claim, point is that i have been paying airtel secure for almost 1.5 years even from my previous phone. S8+ from last june, after raising the calim i need to wait for 15 days i have been following them like anything, they respond back saying case has been escalated and they will get back soon. Oneassist and airtel are no were together, they are 2 different entity.
Finally they came back saying with one-liner "careless handling" and my case is closed. I have been with airtel for almost 12 years, now i have decided to come out fully.

I had some sort of trust on airtel, but they broke it. Second phone story will follow in another complaint.

I replaced my simcard on 9th march 2018, and after replacement they deactivated my sms incoming and outgoing. They said it would be activate in 48 hours. But it is not 14th day and i am still struggling with this sms and it is still deactivated. I called almost more than 4 times in airtel customer support to resolve the issue and each time they assured me to resolve it in 48 hours. But no action taken. I talked with their senior executive three times and they didn't even given me correct complaint/service request number. Each time i am time trying to reach nodal officer, the given complaint number it says wrong. And i am not able to take my issue to nodal officer. I am not able to do any banking transaction because i am not receiving any massage on my mobile. It caused me to loose good amount of money and time. Don't know what to do.

After that when i recharged my plan on same date on which date my plan is due i. E. 23 march they again deduct 15rs said that this is suspension charge after talking and argued so much they said you are on fault and i was seeing the message on tv that due date is 23 march.

Sir,

I am g. Suresh, assistant professor, vikas college of engineering & technology, vijayawada. Sir, i had prepaid sim with number +91-[protected]. The sim was registered with my relative name. During the aadhar linking process i wanted to change the mobile number to my name. The airtel store people at vijayawada, told me convert the sim to post paid later you can again convert the sim to prepaid. There the problem started.

They have confirmed 499rs/- plan @ airtel store, ilapuram extension center, vijayawada. I thought that i have chance to convert the mobile number to prepaid after i paid the 1st month bill. Later the store people told me to pay upto 3 months to change to prepaid.

I have paid the postpaid charges in january-2018, febuary-2018, march-2018. After 3 successful payments, i called the store person where have taken the postpaid sim. The store person said in phone the network is slow here, you go to benz circle airtel head office, they will convert to prepaid with a thumb impression without any documents.

I went to benz circle, vijayawada, airtel showroom, they told that they require aadhar & photo. I said that i will bring those now please do the process. They told me to stay in postpaid upto 6months it is company rule. I asked them what is the other option. They told me use number portability system & change to other network.

Next day i met reliance jio, network people. They tried the process of number portability. But it was not successful. They suggested me to go to the airtel store only. I went there & they successfully done the processes & told that there will be a call from customer service centre regarding change of network.

The next day my wife received a call from [protected], introduced herseif as ms. Himaja, from airtel customer service centre. My wife explained her the entire problem. The customer care person told to my wife, she will put a mail immediately to patamata, airtel showroom & please go to patamata, airtel showroom, vijayawada to convert into prepaid.

On the same day evening while returning back from college, i went to that store and asked them to convert the sim to prepaid. They also told me to stay upto 6months as per company rule. I told them about the call from customer service centre. At last they gave me the prepaid form & charged approximately 575rs/- for 3 moths unlimited plan which is company rule agian who are converting from postpaid to prepaid.

2 days later today i received a message that document verification is failed.

This process took place from 14.03.2018 to 23.03.2018 (Today). I am suffering a lot with this process.

Please do justice for me. Help me early to convert my sim from postpaid to prepaid, because again postpaid bill will come in 10 days on 09.04.2018. I am feared of those postpaid bills. Lot of headache also.

In ads, it shows as fastest network in india and in reality it is not even near that 'fast' word, the 4g disconnects very frequently even though there is full network, and here is the funny and irritating reply from airtel executives - 'sir, keep it in 3g mode, anyway there is no difference between 3g and 4g speeds'. Then why the * are you asking us to opt for 4g?? And when it comes to call quality, it's another disaster, all of a sudden it won't connect to any cellular network and sometimes the other person will die shouting at me saying that he is not able to hear my voice even though i'm shouting here too.

It's pathetic, the once king of network is now no where near to that. Instead of improving the service, they are indirectly forcing the users to port with this pathetic service.

Hi sir,

I just check my balance on my airtel mobile number [protected]. But it shows 5rs only out of 80rs. I already activated dnd and no value added is activated,

Hi,

It has been really sad to observe the worst ever services from airtel. I am paying money for airtel secure integrated in my plan.

I never have been careless in my handling of the phone, you can check the condition of the phone. However, i was never aware that slipping of phone accidently as to be some specific occasion until i heard that my claim has been rejected due to improper handling.

As i was getting down from my car and my phone was in my hand and as i get down from my car a vehicle came from behind and hit me, and due to this sudden event my phone fell down on the road and its display screen got broked.

May i request you to look into concern as its been already 20 day since the incident you guys have closed my claim twice.
I am going to proceed with legal option if not taken my request seriously.

Hoping to hearing from you soon.
