Namaste,

i have visited your Gandhi Nagar Branch, Bangalore 15 days back then again on last Thursday to bring 3 number under Family Plan.
i have four numbers
[protected] (self)
[protected]
[protected]
[protected]
i informed them to have a family plan of three first numbers under Rs. 1199. and last number ([protected]) as Rs.199/- prepaid.
But in my mobile app, it was appearing that my number and [protected] are appearing as Family Plan and [protected] and [protected] are appearing as Rs. 299 Postpaid Plan.
Again i visited on Thursday afternoon and informed them about the problem.
But they shown me in their laptop that.. things are properly registered but it was not appearing in my mobile app. There is no answer from Gandhi Nagar branch.
Again i paid Rs. 1700/- for :
Prepaid plan for [protected] and
including in the Family Plan for the number [protected]
The laptop of the Gandhi Nagar branch is showing 3 numbers in my Family Plan and one number as prepaid. but in my mobile app first two numbers are shown as family plan, when i tried to add another number. Error message is appearing.
On Friday evening, when my son borrowed 15 gb, thought that, it will be taken from the Family Plan since his name already included on Thrursday at Gandhi Nagar Branch. But yesterday, i received a message that, i have to pay rs. 937 for 15gb data of [protected] number.
whats going on about the service you are providing, i am confused.
Yesterday evening i called your customer Care number (Mr.Naveen) When i informed him to check the status of my Family Plan. He said that, only two numbers are appearing ir [protected] and [protected]. i told him to lodge a complain but he refused saying that, third number ( [protected]) is not appearing in my family plan.

You tell me now.. what should i do ?

Regards,

Ravi Arumugam

Yesterday ie 24 January 2018, Airtel team was contacted me and telling me the same old story of 'only two names are appearing'. and requesting me to send the screen shot of my account information from the mobile. Then i informed them that, first pl check the data of Airtel Office, Gandhinagar Branch, Bangalore then come to me. Till now no change in my account of mobile also no contact. when i tried their number. It says 'switched off'.

      Today morning i received a message on my number that namkeen pack has been activated on my number. This happened without my permission & balance of rs-25/- has been deducted from my account.

      I have never subscribed for this service, why airtel has activated this??

      Want to file a complaint for such unnecessary deductions made by airtel. Such instances have happened in the past as well. They activate certain services and charge us any amount as a subscription fee.

        I would like to transfer an airtel mobile connection to my sister in law. She has been using the number for several years but the connection has been in my name.

        The store has been asking for proof of blood relation. I am ready to submit both my aadhaar and her aadhaar.

        Now i would like to transfer the connection to her name to reflect her as the account owner.

        What is the process for doing this.

            I have converted my airtel number [protected] from postpaid to prepaid on 10th jan 2018. When i try to recharge error msg is showing. I cannot recharge through online as well as offline.

            I checked with the customer care as well, they said that the number is active and functional. I can receive calls but not able to make any outgoing calls because of insufficient balance. I tried to log a complaint at airtel store, but they could not give a proper solution. I have been using the same number from past many years. From past 13 days, i cannot call to anyone.

            Really pathetic!!!

                What happening in airtel company, i do not understand? I have opted "airtel 149 plan - ap", but, your people are charging 100 rupees more every month in my month bill, so, many times reminded to your local office, even though, every month charged rs.100/- as 249 plan, why this happend in your company, are you cheating your customers? I need your clarficaton and revert back the money whatever you have charged against my account for the same.

                I hope this query will resolved on top priority & pl check the bills for latest 18 months bills and update my account accordingly.

                  I applied to port my number from docomo to airtel. The airtel number got activated on 4th january but there were no network signals for more than10-12 days. I went to the service centre on 17th january. People there swapped my sim but when the new sim got activated, i received a number other than my own number (Which belongs to someone whose phone was stolen & now he's disturbing me with his calls & threatening me). I went to the service centre several times but all in vain. They again swapped my sim but no use. I am not able to get my number back & this is creating a whole lot of mess for me. I want airtel to please look into this case & provide me a solution asap.

                                  After repeated calling to airtel they are unable to provide me a resolution about my claim. The status shows as in repair stage on 10th jan'18, i had made the excess fee at that day itself. On 19th jan they called and told me that it's repaired. One assist told me it takes 2 days to deliver at my pincode please tell me where is my repaired phone it has been 12 days since it went for a repair and status is not being changed on myairtel app too after the call which said that it;s repaired. Please call me on my registered number asap. Claim number is 2726314.

                                    Hi. I recharged my airtel number online using my sbi credit card. My money a total amount of 798 was deducted from my account but my number did not get recharged and i was informed that my money will be refunded within a week but i haven't received anything yet and the customer care executive is of no help. The executive told me they are not responsible for this then i want to know which party will give back my money. This is the reference number txn id [protected] and txnid[protected] that i received from the customer care in the time of recharging telling me that my number couldn't be recharged due to technical issues and that my money will be processed to be refunded.
