    I have applied as per airtel marketing person guideline for 40mbps connection. But i got 40mbps download and 9mbps upload.

    I called customer care they said whatever plan you can buy, but from the plan you will get only 80% download and 20% upload

    They're nowhere mentioned 80% download and 20% upload only possible with us.

      Dear sir,

      I had tried at least 3 times to get my postpaid number converted from postpaid to pre-paid in the past few months. Everyone i had been given false promise that conversion will reflect in your account after to hour ironically it never happened. Today when i visited to ground floor, site no 36/37, chinnappanahalli village, kr puram, hobli,, east tal, maratahalli, bangalore, karnataka 560037 i had been told they don't have form to switch a number to postpaid to pre-paid.

      When i asked them why they don't have they said they don't have again. I asked them why they don't get the forms their answer same.

      I have humble request to you take the proper action against these airtel stores and operator.

      Thanks

        I am calling from esamia bazar, hyderabad.
        We are experiencing a lot of call drops and network issues in airtel network in this important - sultan bazar area of hyderabad.
        We have complained many times, but nothing has been done by airtel yet.

        If airtel doesn't improve its services over here, many customers will shift from airtel to other new networks.

          Yesterday after recharging my airtel prepaid no. With 150 rs i got another message within 5 minutes that 35 rs have been deducted for the namkeen pack, since i was not using airtel since 5-6 mths i never activated that service. Sms provided me one no. To deactivate the service, when i called that no. The service was deactivated but 35 rs were not returned. I want my 35 rs back, i better give this money to a beggar than to these filthy corporates.

            On 8 feb 2018 my at night my network gone and never returned till date. Next morning i connected to customer support and they advised me to change the sim from airtel store. Afternoon i get the message to restart my phone but again there is no network. I called up again and the customer care advised me to wait for 4 hours. Now today is 10 feb 2017 and still no network. As usual they ask 24 hours to resolve the issues. As these days everything is on mobile and i'm facing the horrible experience for being airtel customer. My banking stopped for more than 3 days as they asked me to wait for 24 hours. Being an old customer i never ever going to promote or recommend airtel connection to anyone i know.
            As im calling them so many times and in return i get more and more time to wait.
            After this no more airtel connection in my life.

            Thank you airtel for such wonderful experience and the loss of money im facing due to you.

                This refers to the subject matter, please note that for the airtel number [protected], i have recharged from airtel application through airtel bank for rs.399/- and it was not reflected to this number and i could not able to call also and messaging low account balance. There after i have called up on airtel customer numbers several times and got to know that the query will be resolved in 2days and also asked me to recharge for rs.10/- more to get updated. That also done by me but rs.10/- only got immediately updated to this number account. However till date inspite of several complaints rs.399/- was not updated to my [protected] number till date.
                So now what to do about, i don't understand.
                Please resolve urgently.
                Thanking you

                    Since around 1 year now we are experiencing heavy network issues with airtel.in our area everyone using airtel is experiencing the same issue.in spite of number of complaints and follow-ups we are not getting any satisfactory reply. Neither there is any resolution to the issue. Phone does not work at all in the area venkatapuram and nearby in jamalapuram. Airtel claims to have best network but sorry to say that its not true and also we are experiencing very bad customer service. We have no idea by when will this get fixed. We all are now thinking on porting out which seems to be a better solution here.

                      Not even getting 2g speed on this daily 1gb pack...I had put a 3g pack of 399rs for my airtel SIM..but I'm not even getting a 2g speed..this is first time airtel is cheating like this. The pack says it's for non commercial use. Does this mean that we can't even use it for 2g speed. Hardly one whatsapp message goes from my mobile .

                        Hi
                        I recently opted for portability from tata docomo to airtel. I’m using iphone 5s, when i went to local airtel distributor head office then sold me a 4g sim saying i would get 3g data on my iphone. It’s been 3days i didn’t see 3g on my phone, it shows on and off “e” and also it shows no service. Though it shows “e” never gets connected to the internet, tried couple of times reaching customer care. They answered change the sim into another phone, then i have changed the same sim into my iphone 6, but the issue was not resolved.

                            Worst customer support
                            I hold an airtel number, which converted from postpaid to prepaid on 30th jan 2018and thereafter, i am not able to make any recharge, hence no outgoing and no internet.
                            Its been 10 days now. I have tried all possible options but of no use.
                            The airtel gallery guys are good for nothing, they do not know anything about their daily work.
                            I contacted customer care on 121 and 198. After big argument with junior executives, i then spoke to some seniors like ankit pandey and shrikant nepali.
                            They all gave me false commitment of 48hrs thrice (48 * 3 = 6 days).
                            Then as a last resort, i emailed to nodalofficer. [protected]@in. Airtel.com.
                            From there again three different people spoke to me (Ashwini k, macherla akhila, akhil shaganti) and all are still giving me false commitment of another 48hrs.
                            I am really very frustrated with this behaviour. I cannot make any outgoing calls nor use internet. It is affecting my business.

                            My one question to airtel - does it take 10+ days to resolve one issue? Is your technical team so weak? Do you have any sla for service request?

                            Also, i checked on consumer forum websites and many customers who converted post to prepaid got this issue, and still airtel has no answer to this.

                            Really worst service by such a old company.

                              Sir, i can’t have access to my airtel prepaid mobile number. Perhaps it is deactivated as it was not in use for sometime.

                              Now i am facing problem because it shows that this number do not exists.

                              I want my number to be reactivated as soon as possible. Kindly help me to get out of it. My airtel prepaid mobile number is [protected].

                              I will regularise the connection.

                                I applied for a connection on 2nd dec and paid rs 500. The airtel dealer first said that it'll take rs500 to install connection, then a month later, he said that since it's fiber cable, total rs1000 will be installation charges. So i made the second transaction of rs 500 on 18 jan.

                                I have since sent them my bank statements and transaction ids. But still they were saying that it's invalid.
                                Also, they are asking me to go to my bank ask for charge back. Indian banks don't provide chargeback.

                                Why take money before providing connection?

                                  I deposited money in my airtel wallet (Airtel payment bank)
                                  Unfortunately i forgot all my credentials (Username, password)
                                  And i forgot mpin. It's been one week i'm facing this issue.

                                  But the customer care service members are not responding to my questions.

                                  I gave the credentials which i gave while taking my sim and they are saying that the credentials are wrong.

                                  I even confirmed it with airtel office members.

                                  And in my airtel app also i can see my name.

                                  Don't know what is the issue.

                                  Please do needful

                                  Thank you.

                                    Please close my no. The reason for this is that i am not satisfied with the service provided to me from the time i migrated from prepaid to post paid. Even when i tried to convert it back into prepaid. I went to showroom at shopian. They told me to go sgr. Sonwar. The persons at sonwar sent me to rajbagh showroom. Rajbagh showroom asked me to go gogjibag showroom. Thus my week was wasted. Then i tried to close my connection but i was assured to get all the benifits. But after one month same bill same amount. This time i am asked to wait for one more month. Keeping in view all this once again request u to close my connection
