Hi, since my old sim card got damaged i went to the near by airtel office and collected a new sim replacing it, they asked me to wait for 4 hrs and i have waited and i have not got the sim activation . when i called the customer care and asked they said there was no activation request they received from the airtel office . because of this i have wasted my time and must have missed a lot of important calls. i am seriously disappointed by the service i have got . i have to go to the airtel office once again for this

    Hello,

    I am using airtel digital connection with Account [protected]-001. In october I have updated my package to 1 year HD which includes all the channels.

    Recently I have noticed that I was charged 45 INR per month for Gemini HD separately from the month of October. I called customer care on 4th of March 2018 and informed the same. They said very sorry for the inconvenience and mentioned some package activated by mistake. They deactivated the same and promised that my money will be credited back to my account within 24 hrs.

    Its been more than 48 hrs and my money is not credited. When I called Customer care again they say it is my mistake I didnt notice. So, they cant credit back my money.

    Im platinum customer of airtel from 2007 (Mob: [protected]).. I feel I am cheated? I am not bothered about my 300 INR. I am concerned about the values and ethics. They are cheating the customers.

    Kindly help to credit back my money

          I had raised a request with airtel for porting from jio to airtel. My old sim stopped working 10 hours ago and my new sim (Airtel sim) doesnt seem to be working. I am missing a lot of calls and feeling very helpless and harrassed as both my sims have stopped working and i dont have access to my number.

          Kindly provide solution as soon as possible.

            I ported my sim from tata docomo to airtel on 2nd march 2018. The sim was working for a while but now it's been 4 days and it's not at all working. The guy who did the porting told me that it will take upto 5-7 days for the new sim to get activated but why is it taking so long. I cant even use my sim for online purposes and nobody is able to contact me

                    This is to inform that "gamepind service" is automatically being activated in my cell today morning which led to the deduction of rs.30 from my balance. I have never activated this service. I don't know how the service got activated automatically. Please take necessary steps. Kindly resolve and credit the amount immediately. Please take necessary step to resolve and credit back the deducted balance.

                          I have ported from aircel to airtel on 2/3/18. And my aircel sim is deactivated on 5/03/2018. But still airtel is not yet activated. It doesn't showing a network. Since that is my official number, i was in trouble. I would missed many important calls because of this issue. It is very urgent.

                              I am using above no.[protected] for more than 18 YEARS.

                              To update this with my Aadhar I requested for change of ownership (Corporate account to Individual) as per email from Airtel dated Feb 18, 2018 and submitted my Aadhar along with NOC from Company (as required) on Feb 24, 2018 at Sector 15 Faridabad.

                              On March 3, 2018 at 3:48 PM – SMS : Thank you for your interest in Airtel! Received request for activation of mob [protected]. Will be activated within 24 Hours! And at 4:48 pm received SMS – address verification completed.

                              On March 5, 2018, when contacted Customer Service (121) I was told ‘No Order generated’ for this no. Advised to Visit Store again. So visited the Store met the Manager Amit and CS Executed Kuldeep. They informed, - No problem from their side. Ticket raised for resolution. Will be done in next 24 hours.

                              On March 6, 2018 3 PM and again at 8PM – Store person tells me, no resolution so far. Wait for more time.
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                              I received an SMS from AD-CBSSBI Saying that My Accont had a debit by transfer of Rs.147.50 on 17/02/18. Avl Bal mentioned with Rs.147.50 deducted from total Balance in my acoount. It then says again Download YONO @ www.yonosbi.com. Sender: AD-CBSSBI.
                              Can u explain the reason why my money got deducted without my authorisation

                                      I have ported [protected] and [protected] from idea to airtel. Now i am unable to receive calls from connect landlines. Whenever someone try to call they got the error message that number does not exist on both the numbers i have ported to airtel.. Kindly look into the matter or give me the contact details of authority to contact regarding this issue. I have contacted customer care executives of airtel but they have no idea about it. They says that we have checked your numbers and all the services are working fine, but i think there is an issue regarding porting from idea to airtel and thats why the error message is received.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                      no one from airtel bothers to solve the problem. the staff at airtel store suggests me to port to some other company as they can't solve the problem...
