Already 10 days are passed since i applied for porting from aircel to airtel and still no signal.
Even if i check status in mnp website, getting result as not found.
Even if i call to customer care of airtel their replay is the worst you can expect that is no information is available in the status or go and apply it again.
Once they are saying your request got cancelled so ask in airtel store, if there i am asking they just to wait for some more days max of 1 week but it's already 10 days and no signal or information on alternative number.

    I am akshay singh jadon from jaipur.
    I am unable to recharge my airtel number online through paytm or by my airtel app. The transaction gets declined in both the cases without any reason.. I tried recharging other airtel numbers and they all worked fine. I would like to request you to kindly look upon this issue and fix it as soon as possible.
    My airtel number is [protected].

      I have requested to move from postpaid to prepaid in airtel network. On the same day i got a message saying it will be activated within 24 hours. Now my postpaid sim tower got disconnected and in new prepaid sim still no tower. I don’t have another no to use. I don’t know how airtel is so irresponsible in customer service. When i called airtel customer care from my landline they are telling we cannot do anything with your issue go and ask the showroom where you bought the sim.

            I have been using airtel mobile since past 10 years and including all my family members and friends. There is a total black out of signal in this area sector 68 mohali punjab. I have complained on 14 march 2018 but no response from airtel. No team has visited. Please resolve the issue or else we will have to surrender all the numbers of airtel in this area and switch to other company. Further i am not going to pay the bill due to no service /poor service. Hope you will resolve speedily. Airtel service had no problem in past was very reliable, only now past one month this problem has been experienced

            My Airtel number [protected]. I receive messages saying Value added services are being activated. But I never request any such services. Dear Airtel, why it is happening. Because of fault in your system why customer should pay more money?
            1. Correct your system
            2. Return the money to customers, which was wrongly charged.

            Regards.

                  I ported from Vodafone to airtel and paid RS.520 for free calls, sms and internet for 80 days. I'm not able to send messages and make calls. It says that I don't have sufficient balance. I hardly talk too. There's isn't even an option to talk to customer care executive. My phone number is [protected]. Make sure it is sorted asap.

                    Broadband alloted - [protected]_dsl and [protected]_dsl

                    I m really disappointed, please if possible get my money refund and cancel the connection, which of no use without handsets and my choice nos.

                    Please look into the matter, i will be highly thankful to you.

                      Hi,

                      I have loaded 10000 to my airtel payments bank account. But i could not able to transfer amounts to my bank accounts. I called customer care and complained, they said rbi rule you can not transfer amount to other bank accounts until rbi release new order for airtel. I asked refund amount through mail, they did not response for complaint mail.

                      Please do not load any cash to airtel payments bank account, once you loaded you can not transfer to any bank accounts, you can use it for only recharge your mobiles recharge, gas, electric, datacard, dth, payments. But you can not utilise 10000 for those payments.

                      Important note to airtel: in electricity payments list won't show "tamilnadu electricity board", and you can not pay eb bills for tamilnadu eb.

                      Requesting all not to load any cash in airtel payments bank and struggle for refund amounts.

                            Sir,

                            As i was getting every time message to update my sim card for pre paid no..[protected] from 3g to 4 g yesterday i updated my sim card that is taken new sim card.

                            On 1.2.2018 i paid rs.509.00 for 90 days top-up with free unlimited call and sms free day up to 100 with net data.
                            But is to inform you that since yesterday night i am not able to send single sms to any one with this number [protected] and also not getting what up in my phone.

                            Your airtel office is taking sufficient amount and not given proper service. I called 12118 and take with customer care but they have not given proper reply, it is very bad.

                            I request kindly rectify the same and allow me to send the sms as it is urgently required for official purpose.

                                    My number is +[protected]. I have been offered a monthly rent of 399 from airtel for porting out from vadafone (Which i was using from 7 years). To my surprise when i got ported to airtel i got to know my plan is 499 and they offered a waiver of rs 100 for 3 months.. I requested them if i can port back to vodafone as they have given all false promises. They are telling me to wait for 3 months to do the same. I regret to change my service provider from vodafone to airtel.. Just to get a customer from a different service provider the tele callers of airtel are committing all false promises. Request all not to fall for it. When i called their customer care to lodge a complaint on the same they took a complaint but never reverted back.. When i tried calling them again they said there is no complaint.. Such is the service..

                                      I'm facing network issue at my location. The signal strength is too weak where data drops to 70-80 kbps in 4g frequently.

                                      Complaint was logged on mar 1st, 2018 but no proper response from the customer care. I can hear these non sense words such as - we can check that the outdoor signal quality in your area is excellent. The problem you are facing could be due to inadequate indoor coverage.
                                      We would like to inform you that we are continuously working on expanding our network and your inputs are taken for future network planning.

                                      You ppl expand your network else shut down the company, that's not my problem.. I have paid rs.475 for 4g connectivity with 1gb data for 84 days.. If you are unable to provide service.. Refund my money back.. I have better options to do..

                                      Open network status shows that the signal strength is excellent but this is false (Snap attached). Its same like what you did in ookla speedtest..
                                      Also i live in city not in rural area. Airtel claims they are india's # 1 network, but it is a false statement.

                                      Request you to consider this on priority and do the needful if else give my money back..

                                      Info shared till now :

                                      1. Location where you are facing the issue, do mention if any landmark nearby with pin code.

                                      #solai nagar 2nd cross, old katpadi, vellore-632007

                                      2. Number of signals:

                                      1 to 2 (Inside the house)

                                        I am post paid customer with connection number [protected] for last several years. Ihad switched to prepaid plan and again to post paid plan since november, 2017.
                                        Contacted yogesh to switchover to pre paid plan again and submitted duly filed and complete form with aadhar id copy. He mentioned document not clear. How airtel has changed plan in the past based on same document. Behaviour of the staff at allahabad store was not proper rather rubbish which has hurted me grossly.

                                        Despite such long association i am switching to some other company like vodaphone or idea etc.

                                        This complaint to take necessary action against erring staff and officials to improve the service and behavior and image of the company
