Hi,

The worst customer service, I am getting from worst mobile provider, I don't know how many times I had complaint for the same thing, I can't type the whole issue which is going on since 1.6yrs, I just want all my money back which I have paid to airtel, for no good joy, none of the customer care executive or manager ever provide a correct information, better if you go with call recording for my calls, may be you will get all the information, I actually wasted a lot time by talking to customer care.
Is there anyone who can help me genuinely??? I doubt!!!

    This is an serious offence that airtel has done to me who is an trusted customer.
    All my personnel contacts of my mobile number # is sold to icici bank and its vendors who are calling my family, friends and colleagues and harassing them by giving my reference.

    This is an great offence and i will not hesitate to take legal action against airtel. We are still getting calls. This shows that airtel is not an reliable service provider and breaching individual privacy.

    We are still getting continuous calls from other numbers and airtel has not taken any action until now with ref:83448100 from 9th feb

              I am Raj Kumar Saw from noida, I had requested to port in airtel 2 months before and still I am on hold due to so many known reasons. today's situation is I am not even with IDEA not in Airtel. Just because of miscommunication of Airtel Custmer Care Services. In this period I request four times to generate UPC to port out and given to Airtel, I cleared all my dues with idea and submitted all my documents in airtel. Also physical verification has been done. But now a day I still waiting to activate my new Airtel SIM . Even I visited outlet and requested for same, and they again ask me for ID Proof.. it was really iterating for me.
              I don't know when my number will be activate or even not.

                    I am not able to use my internet at all its really very slow. I have raised complaints thrice however airtel is not doing any thing and your care executives are are not helpfull they keep asking the same questions. They not even trying to help. Either fix my probleb or let me know that you will not be able to resolve it. I will change my network. I am paying for it and i am nopt getting it. Airtel is not even trying to resolve it. Airtel is not able to ior not trying to help the customers. Airtel is taking the money from their customers but the customers are not able to use it. Please resolve the issue or let me know if you will not be able to resolve it.

                        On 13 feb. 2018 i needed additional 1 gb 4g data for my airtel no. [protected] so i recharged with 53rs. Internet data topup validity 1 day. But, did not receive it in my account. The funniest part is... Airtel customer care rep. Told that the 53 rupee re-charge for additional 1gb will work in night only from 00:00 am to 06:00am only, rather on web-site validity was mentioned as 1 day. This is something unacceptable & cheating with customer.

                        I used internet in night between 00:00am to 06:00am but airtel dedcted 690mb from my existing plan which is 399 where i get 1gb data per day... Why???

                        Your customer service is worst only, no doubt, simply wasting customer's time & selling false plans.

                        Your service reps. Do not know about plans and repeatedly asking the same query.

                        Your my airtel app also sucks. Not showing my additional 1gb data.

                        I need an immediate refund of my recharge of rs. 53 or 1gb+690mb 4g data in my account.

                          Sir

                          I had been to canada and the u. S. For about five months. There was no airtel service during this period.

                          On my return, to my great surprise, i discovered that there is no service.

                          On checking with airtel office at anna nagar, i was told that it got deactivated and nothing can be done and was advised to check with h. O. At santhome. On 05-02-18 at santhome h. O. I was told that as the deactivation was not reported within 15days i had lost that no. When discussed about the next step, i was told that my no. Would have gone to the bangalore marketing office.

                          I now request your good selves to assign my no. [protected] to me please.

                          Reasons to assign [protected]:
                          1) it is needless to say the immense inconvenience it is creating to me and to my contact persons.
                          2) all my financial institutions and government departments have this no.
                          3) i did not receive any notifications from airtel saying that my no. Is deactivated. Had i known it i would have taken the necessary action.
                          4) i have been your faithful customer for a long period of time. You can check the opening date and the amount of money i had spent as an individual.
                          5) despite attractive offers from reliance jio free offers... Etc i never switched to other vendors. I had been a faithful customer to you.
                          6) how can you be so blunt and so rude saying, i did not report the deactivation when i had no chance of knowing it.
                          7) considering the fact that i was abroad (From 20-8-17 to[protected] and i was not aware of the deactivation and i that i received no notifications from airtel... I request you to be kind enough to assign my no.[protected].

                              It is to bring to your notice the strong displeasure at the service and treatment meted out to the existing and prospective customer. Let me share brief facts with you.

                              I am existing airtel customer and contacted airtel broadband and fixed line section at 121 to understand about the broadband plans. I decided to go for airtel broadband plan with six month advance rental and was told by airtel’s representative (Mr. Sarit gupta in lajpat nagar-iv, new delhi) that the connection will be installed by 14th feb2018 if you make the payment by 6 pm on 13th feb 2018. I made the payment and submitted the required document to him. Now today, i came to know that instruments are out of stock from last three days and it will take another week to get the instrument for making the complete installation. The dsl/internet is activated at my premise today but the fixed line instrument is yet to be connected and i am at airtel’s mercy to provide me the instrument at their own convenience since i am already locked in for six month by making advance payment. My fixed line plan is activated but instrument is not installed. This means i am being charged for the service by the airtel but was not provided with the instrument to use the service. If you already know that instruments are out of stock then why are you deceiving customers into making payment by promising that your connection will be installed in a day. I take strong objection to this and reserve my right to knock the doors of consumer court regarding this event.
                              Caf number is[protected]This is the number given to me regarding my airtel broadband connection).

                                I contacted airtel for new broadband connection on 11 feb 2018, their field agent contacted me on 12 feb 2018 and told me that only 999/- plan is available in my area and after taking my documents he shared a link for advance payment and assured me that after payment within one day i will get the connection. On 12th feb 2018 i made the advance rental payment of 3537/- and shared the payment confirmation with the field agent. However after getting the payment confirmation the field agent stopped taking my calls and then on contacting airtel customer care i was told that it is not feasible to provide connection in my area. Now i am waiting for the refunds which as per airtel team will take at least another one month.
                                Seriously disappointed by airtel customer service.

                                    I am using airtel postpaid. Iam not getting proper network, many of the tym ppl tel that my mobile is not rechable and call gets disconnected in middle. And 499 plan comes with 40 gb data but m getting 20 gb that too very slow. They are charging me miss call alert charge but till nw i din get evn single msg. I have complained this many times but no solution. And cant port also bcoz 90 days waiting period really this is very worst experience. Never thought airtel has come to this footpath level.

                                      Kindly note that we have called Mr. Rajkumar (Airtel executive, Contact No - [protected]) .

                                      Then, through his link some executive from Airtel visited our office and all the procedure for the payment in cash was done.

                                      We have received an Airtel form with a promise that the new broadband connection will be initiated within next 24 hours.

                                      But it has been more than 12 days and we have no response from Airtel yet. No one is answering our call neither anyone has any status update about the same.

                                      I am sending you the Airtel form copy provided to us. Please find the attachment.

                                      Kindly look into the matter urgently.

                                      It's a shame that Airtel cannot keep their promises and if we didn't receive any urgent action in this matter then it's better to remove our other Airtel office connections as well.

                                      Every time a executive from Airtel drop a mail on my mail ID and then call with a promise that it will be done but still nothing happened.

                                      Everyday they make same promise and then prove that all their promises are fake.
