I have deposited rs. 5, 000/- to my airtel payment bank account. Problem is it's showing rs.5000/- balance in my account, and i am not able to use the balance.
Kyc of the a/c has been completed.
Whenever i try to transfer or recharge, it's showing error like debit for this account is not allowed.
I have called customer care so many times, but the problem is not solved yet.
So please rectify the problem as soon as possible.

              With reference to the compain no. Cbdmo[protected]. I have been using airtel for almost 15 years but no. Of time i have faced worst customer service and again when i was having 1 gb of data in my account the company has deducted the charge from the main balance and i can't let the company to cheat me again and again.
              So if company is not able to refund the money than it would be better to port to some other fair company than airtel.

                      When I interacted with Airtel customer care executive, he has explained 6 month plan for voice and data. But, Airtel is cheating me by charging monthly for what purpose God knows. Executive told once in six months, so paid once, now they are generate bill every month. I don't understand why they have 6 months plan and again monthly bill. I have call recordings. I don't expect Airtel to stoop down to this level and swindling money from customers in a broad daylight.

                              Airtel has never been known to have great customer service, but their new postpaid plans seemed attractive so i made the switch in sept-2017.

                              Since then, strange things have been happening to my phone.

                              On or around 27th of every month, since oct, my mobile internet speed dips down to 100kbps.
                              It displays "4g" in my phone, but i get speeds of 0.01mbps.
                              I've had this issue repeat every month after this.
                              Oct-27th, nov-27th, dec-27th, again now jan-27th-2018.
                              I have complaint id's matching the dates i've mentioned.

                              Every time i raise a complaint, airtel people say "there is an offer i. D. Mismatch" on my number.

                              How can the mismatch happen every month yaar?

                              If you don't wanna give us the data, just don't give it. Playing around like this is such a bad move. Extremely disappointed with airtel mobile.

                                I am getting too much problem past one month while using mobile data & call drop problem, signal problem.
                                What kind of worst network, you have made it now.
                                If you will not solve my problem, i will port both my no.

                                Same on you airtel, i'm using it past 7 year.
                                You do not have any liability to satisfy your customer while lots of advertisement you do.

                                Yous 4g data is working like 2g.
                                Very sad/
                                Solve it immediately

                                Same on you.

                                    Pathetic service. From 21th Jan to 30th Dec the service down and no action being taken.
                                    - 21 Jan 2018: Scrambled Signal . Complaint no: 70143265
                                    Somebody came to check. Went back say it is a cam card issue.
                                    Till 24th Jan they didn't turn back and from 21 jan to 24 jan they kept rescheduling for 1 day. Finally concluded that CAM card stock not available.

                                    - 28 Jan 2018: Escalation Complaint no: 70391213
                                    They came after so many follow-ups and installed a new Cam card. Then classic sentence "Service will be active in 20 mins". That 20 minutes never came. I called again and spoke to them for almost 1 hour . They raised a new as below

                                    - 29 Jan 2018 : he asked me to do many things in my TV for 1 hour. after he could not resolve, he rasied ticket no: 70428924.

                                    - I got a message to contact service engineer. When I called me, he said activiation is not in his control and asked me contact another number.

                                    "LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE EXPECTING CUSTOMERS TO KEEP CALLING THEM AND MANAGE TO FIND A PERSON TO RESOLVE AND ALSO TO FIX THEMSELVES"

                                    - i called customer care again on 30 Jan 2018, and they raised ticket 70449016 with title "Repeat complaint" and they have assured to resolve by 5:30 today (30 jan 2018).

                                    I contacted the nodal office by email explaining the problem and tweeted to airtel_presence. They only regret for inconvenience but they never resolve the problem.

                                    I have wasted so much time calling them and go through some much of mental stress. 3 times transferred to higher officials and nothing is being done to sort out the issue.

                                      Submitted postpaid to prepaid on 24th of january in brigade metropolis airtel outlet in whitefield, bangalore.

                                      The postpaid number immediately stopped working. The prepaid sim is not activated even after a week.

                                      I was told by the representative that it will be activated within 4 hours on 24th of january. But even after week and several follow up visits to the airtel outlet, sim is not being activated. Every time i go to the outlet they say it will happen in 4 hours.

                                      I am not able to get my important messages and calls from past one week. False commitment made by represntatives several times. It is a big mental harrasment to me.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                      I am unable to done any transaction or use my money from airtel payment bank and now one to help in that.Is Airtel doing such a fraud to their customer?Please resolve my issue as soon as possible.
