How to get refund from AirTel on failed transaction?

Sender's phone number: [protected].
Amount: K 2060.
Transaction date 1st May.
Txn. ID: MP220501.0029.G87405.

It's our Zambia customer's account. I'm Chinese company using FlutterWave to receive their money. FlutterWave said they didn't receive the money. And the customer's account has been detected.

I've been in contact for 7 weeks with Airtel Zambia, they are very arrogant, don't reply to messages, don't solve problems. They are robbery

They just closed the process and still didn't refund. It's a little money to Airtel, but it's a lot to me, why Airtel can do this? They are robbery
Same issue happened with me too. I requested my bank to issue a chargeback on Airtel and finally i got the REFUND. This company cheats customers. Maybe they are collecting money for 5G auction by robbing unsuspecting customers.

      I accidentally recharged a no. Instead of my brother no. This is what happened today, i was using IMobilepay, they suggested to contact operator. The text services says that
      “you are not authorized to use lapu reversal service. Please contact to circle coordinator.”
      The no. I recharged was: [protected]

              I tried everything with Apple support but iMessage cannot be activated for my Airtel sim card. The issue is from Airtel’s end. However, there is no way of talking directly to a customer care executive with Airtel. I tried their app and automated customer care number, but it doesn’t address my issue.

                  I am getting multiple OTPs from ZetaMB senderID as mentioned in screenshot. Please mark it as a spam, stop SMSs with template mentioned in screenshot and consider this as a written complaint my me to service provider Airtel as I've not subscribed anything to get these kind of SMSs.

                  Please stop these sms on atleast airtel network.

                      Airtel, through a contractor, one Mr Kiran, recently laid underground optical fibernet cables in front of my house and along 31st cross road in residential area of Banashankari 2nd stage bangalore. After cable laying, the holes dug up havent been properly filled up. There is a large pothole in front of my house along the cable path . Alao, smaller hoes have opened up along the cable path, that allow rain water ingress and the road tar srface is slowly getting undermined and a large sinkhole may open up any day.
                      A manhole cover, near a junction box pole has been improperly covered, posing threat to scooterists and people walking around Please take note of these issues and address to rectify at earliest. The airtel contactor is not responding to any calls/ messages sent in this regard.

                        I have done recharge of Rs. 379 (old tariff) on an airtel number of my family member ([protected]) on[protected] through Bajaj finserv app (attached the proof). The number is attached to email id abhijithkumar.[protected]@gmail.com with airtel.

                        On 25th Nov 2021, I have done another recharge of Rs. 1498 (1 year validity) but the validity of only the later plan has taken effect.

                        When raised an issue, airtel nodal officer shared the following convoluted clause because of which they cancelled (but haven't refunded my money) the first recharge:
                        We would like to inform you that, validity will be extended only if you do the recharge with bundle packs like ( old Price point ) Rs. 199/-, Rs. 399/-, Rs. 449/-, Rs. 349/-, Rs. 698/-, Rs. 598/-, Rs. 558/-, Rs. 398/-, Rs. 298/-, (Current and new recharge must be in these recharge plans then only recharge validity will extend).
                        Please note that, the validity of smart recharge plans ( old Price point ) ex. Rs. 19/-, Rs. 79/- and unlimited plans like Rs. 2498/-, Rs. 2798/-, Rs. 379/-, Rs. 1498/- Rs. 149/- and Rs. 129/- and Rs. 197/- will start from the date of recharge.

                        What kind of a convoluted rule is this? I expected extension of validity would be the same for all unlimited recharges!

                        They cancel the recharge, take my money and don't even return it! I would like them to extend the validity for 84 days as per the "cancelled" plan. Thanks.

                              I am using Airtel Service from long back and I am having 2 Airtel connection on my name.

                              One Airtel SIM I am using in Airtel Hotspot -BMF422 device for internet use only and I have recharge 84 Day Unlimited plan with 1.5 GP/Day. even added 50 GB extra 4G Data pack of RS.301

                              But Whenever I am trying to use internet, unable to use it since internet connection is very slow since long back and facing daily connectivity issue.

                              As I called multiple time to Airtel Customer Care but no help from them. they will give some deadline to resolve the Internet issue but nothing will happen.

                              This issue I am facing since more than 1 Years and raided multiple complaints. but automatically all the complaints got closed by Airtel without solution. Few on Raised Complaints details are attached here.

                              Note: I am not having time for daily raising complaint and calling Airtel Customer Care for internet issue.

                              Please take action on Airtel As soon as possible since this company is doing scam on the name on 4G internet service.

                                This is Sankalp Singh. My internet is not working. I had recharged my Airtel prepaid number on 5 June, 2022. From that particular day, internet is not working or when it's working, it's too slow that I can't stream a song or video.

                                Therefore, I Request the team members to take cognizance of this matter as soon as possible...
