      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.

      This is regarding my lennovo k6 power, my front screen is broken and i have been havng airtel secure since last june. I have raised the case 15 days ago and still am not getting a proper response, they ask me to send all the bill and broken images to muttu.

          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.

            Sir

            I am a customer of airtel digital tv when i have purchased the representative told me the benefits of it but when i recharged ist time 1 day late they have deducted 30 rs charges as penalty when i asked to customer care no. They said you recharged your plan late so this penalty have been charged but i said i am not aware of this and you should give us 3 or 4 days grace period they refused and said next time we will see. 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. Digital id is [protected]. Other service provider are giving good services than airtel and no any suspension charges and deduction are charged by them. Please resolve my problem otherwise go to consumer care and switch to other service provider. My registered no. Is [protected]

            I had a message saying whatsmob service has been activated when I didn't do anything. It deducted amount of Rs. 75 from my balance. I didn't activate that service, it automatically did and automatically deducted the service charges from my balance.

              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,

                      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.

                          I have called customer care executive today for activation of my airtel number [protected] or [protected] for isd call newly ported to airtel. At the time of activation msg given that isd is available. But today i can't get the facility.
                          Kindly clarify.
                          Thanks.
                          Activation required any one of the number. I have activated 4 no's facility to airtel from tata docomo on 10.03.2018. Tata docomo had this facility.
                          For your help please.

                          Dear sir,
                          I have ported my idea no to Airtel number [protected] on 10.03.2018 from Airtel store Pimpri. Pune.
                          Kamala Cross road B- wing. After activation of my Airtel it isn't worked for 7 days. Again I went to Airtel store.
                          They changed my Sim number.
                          It is activated on 21.03.2018 after repeated requests to appealate as 121.Airtel have not responded.
                          Appealate resolved the problem after 72 hrs.
                          On calling to 121 today customer care executive asked me when and where you will go to USA?
                          Actually when I get the Sim they assured for ISD facility.
                          Today customer care executive asked 24 hrs to activate for ISD.
                          I have another no same problem is activated.
                          Kindly find a solution.
                          Thanks
                          [protected]@gmail.com.

                            Sir, i work in an organisation where we use two airtel post paid numbers.. I am the concerned to pay their bills and then submit the receipts to the audit section.. I have paid the bills of the numbers [protected] & [protected].. But i haven't received the payment receipt to my e mail.. Please arrange to send the last three payment receipts of the above 2 numbers to the id ramana. [protected]@yahoo com. I have submitted a requisition to the airtel authorities through its email but haven't received any message till now.. Paying at an airtel centre is a bit inconvenient to me and so i preferred online payment.. I have paid my bills and unable to receive receipts through mail.. Please send me the last three payment receipts of above two post-paid numbers as early as possible

                                Thanks for choosing 6t seconds wap on your airtel mobile. You have been charged rs49.0 for 15days. A/c balance: rs23.62 at 00:04. To deactivate, call or sms stop to 155223.
                                Airtel deducted this amount from my account and activated some unnecessary pack without my consent. I really don't understand what is their problem. This is most frequently happenin with most of the people. And the costumer service executives of airtel also do not agree to forward the call to manager nor they agree for refund. So some strict action should be taken against this cheating frauds. Please give me justice.
