I ported my postpaid nos from vodafone to airtel.. My vodafone network got disconnected at scheduled time but when added airtel sim it shows no network.. This is a very very bad service from airtel and i am missing my business calls.. Horrible customer service.
I keep getting calls to port to airtel for good offers and better network coverage, and after porting this is the situation. Please fix it asap.

Sir
I have visited Airtel service centre in Onnarpettai Balaji communications and they have told me to link my aadhar by giving 14546 number. I have explained him that I am from Andhra and my sim is taken in Tamilnadu them he is asking me to travel Andhra for linking aadhar to my mobile. Is there any other possibility for linking aadhar??

I recharged my phone number 2 times by error with two different plan and tried to ask for help from phonepe to which phonepe replied by sending the reference number and asking to consult my service provider but my service provider - airtel customer care said that the recharges done through phonepe are third party recharge and these recharges can't be reversed so i doesnt find the way to resolve this problem to protect its customer's money in future.

I brought airtel dth 6 month back. I recharged for 6 month. It finished 3rd march. I try to recharge it but i forget my airtel dth customer id. I press menu but nothing shown on screen. I can't able to recharge my dth. Here i am sending details stb id: [protected], view card no: [protected]. Please reply me with customer id. Thanks. Regards.

I have obtained mobile hotspot on advance rental basis which has end dated on 09-feb-18. I made a call call on 10-feb-18 to cancel it.

But the customer service assured me that will change it to monthly basis.

They did not do it.

Now they are asking me to pay 3000 for which i did not use it.

I have launched a complaint. They are very rude

I have been facing the issues with my internet from past 20 days. Despite 3 complaints i have not received any response from them. When i call them, they put me on hold for 20 mins at a stretch and nobody responded. Truly disappointed. Please don't go for airtel broadband. Its like buying a ticket for a airline and traveling in a rickety bus. And the logic they give is we got you to destination.

Really amazing how incompetent these guys can be.

I have loged complaint to Airtel on 19.10.2017 regarding my network issue.. but till date there is no any improvement in the network and within the same time period company charged Rs. 10064 as monthly charges from sept 17 to feb 18..
I aslo sent mail to airtel to retrun the same amount but no resposnse for the above subject also.

Hi,
I purchased airtel 4g lte hotspot device with 399 postpaid plane with advance rs 2400 for 6 month and they was saying no bill will be generate to next 6 month.

I am very disappointing about this. They harassing me from last month.

I have been using my mobile number [protected] for past 11 years...In august 2017, I had changed my handset so got new sim & wasn't using it...In December 2017 i inserted the sim again in other handset, it showed inactive...visited airtel store, submitted my Adhar number, & wAs given new sim, with assurance that it will b active within 2 days with same number...

But even after 2 weeks it didn't activated & recently came to know...

Airtel is cheating by activating the international roaming services late and by not providing the complete activation. There's other problems as well which is as follows:
I'm sick and tired of detailing the issue and explaining it numerous times to each one that called me from the Airtel. Here is my last explanation.

1. Calling - Was disabled on the whole of feb16th which was the day of activating the international roaming service. I was on the streets of a foreign country as I didnt have internet nor calling facility and my sister was on the phone with customer service the whole of that day and finally calling was made active at the end of the day that day.
2. Data - Data wasnt made active and again I had to raise numerous tickets including this to get it active. It was made active only after 20th of Feb.
3. SMS - SMS was working for over 8 days until I had to call out in this ticket.
4. Call Drops - There are calls drops even till this date, your customer care including yourself have called me and there is a call drop after every minute. This continues inspite of the manual setting changes that you asked me to make.
5. Outgoing calls - Each time I make outgoing calls, it says the number is incorrect from march 8th and I'm unable to make calls anymore.
9. Incoming calls - People have to make multiple attempts to reach me as the phone won't connect.

After all if this, they want me to pay 6000 rs as roaming charges for this pathetic service. And I have raised multiple tickets, emails and customer service calls but they won't resolve my issue but just want me to pay. Can you please help me from this exploitation?

Regards

On march 7th airtel had activated some entertainment plan without my knowledge. I was not aware of it until march 8th when i received their entertainment message. I immediately checked my balance and saw that ₹15 was deducted.
I spoke to the customer service person and he was saying that they cannot do anything since its been more than 24hours since the service has been activated..
This is a clear cheating done by airtel.. I did not get any message stating that a plan has been activated, else i would have immediately called them to deactivate it..
