      Hi,

      I have gone twice to the airtel help centre in saltlake, kolkata. I had gone first on october, they didnt help me with the request, were rude and continued to charge postpaid money, sent bill though i wasnt using, they removed by network after a month, continued to charge the bill amount.

      Yesterday, i received a call from the customer care and i was asked to pay 520 rs to continue using the number. This is fraud... Unnecessarily charging as they kknew, i would leave airtel. Now, i am bound to pay full bill in order to use the number.

      My airterl no : [protected]

              Front page of airtel makes a false promise: it says "every problem that is yours to face will be ours to solve. You don’t end up using all your plan data? We will add it to the next month.". Whereas they have removed my 150gb of carry forwarded data making a statement that i have downgraded my rental plan. Even though i have downgraded my airtel plan but the data which they have removed i bought it on higher rental plan so they do not have any rights to remove that. Also i have not downgraded my data plan initially in 1199 they were giving me 26 gb of data now in new plan i will be getting 50 gb of data.
              This company is a cheater company they are making false promise on the front page of their site. You can see they are promising that they will forward all the unused data to next month.. I can not see any * mark saying terms and condition apply but after removing my data they are making all nonsense terms and condition.

                    I had to port my airtel kerela sim to airtel tamil nadu with an mnp plan of 229 rs. My sim was activated in 7 days, but the sim was not recharged. I enquired with the airtel velechery office from where i bought the sim. The store employees were not interested in my problems and its been 3 days since, i have still not got a reply nor has my sim been recharges. I am not able to call anybody due to this, and have no idea in what to do. I am deeply disappointed in your customer service.

                          After using the services for more than 7yrs when we requested to upgrade our normal DTH connection to HD, you people sent a fraud person to our place.

                          Name: Pankaj Bhatt
                          Mobile No: ±91 [protected]

                          First of all we asked for the Plan A Rs.2550/- HD upgrade for 12months ( Screenshot attached). He fooled my old parents saying that it does not happen like that. You have to recharge for Rs.5801/- .

                          Above that he charged for HD Box which was all inclusive of the scheme as per airtel website. Not only he charged Rs.600/- for the box but Rs.170+150 for adapter and remote respectively.
                          I mean does anyone give the HD box without adapter and remote?

                          This is a case of cheating and fraud. I emailed and called several times for either refund for Rs.600+170+150 or just cancel the whole account and refund the money but no response was received.

                          The bill enclosed, he gave seems fake too. Not including remote charges.

                          Please help resolve the issue.

                            I am trying to get an airtel connection from past 2-3 years. Every time i get to hear that it's not feasible in your area, because there is no line or the line was damaged in the construction of road.
                            Can't airtel put new line in the area. There is high requirement of airtel connection in my area.

                            I am hoping a solution to this problem. Thank you.

                              This airtel payments bank is doing fraud business, there is no help from customer care and simply harassing on call for submitting confidential documents for KYC, for your info KYC is already verified and then only i added rupees 2000 into wallet from my bank account and recharged the prepaid number for 100 rupees, and this transaction was successfull but only got 50 rupees talktime, available balance is 1950, but unable to recharge any prepaid number nor any bills, always getting error "Debit for this account is not allowed". From last several days unable to catch hold of customer care its always going to recorded voice menus. They are not resolving the issue despite of KYC is verified, again forcing to send KYC details even after that problem is not resolved. Airtel is irresponsible and strict action should be taken.

                                Yet again Airtel India has proved it that have the most pathetic customer service. Inspite of several mails, you havent activated my number and now are forcing me to pay money for new sim cards which is absolutely wrong for me because i will not effort these type of charges, i haven't used your services. In last 2 weeks I had to pay Rs 300 amount because my number was still not active. Now that I have asked to keep it in safe custody, I still have been charged an amount of 100 again. Kindly have a call arranged by your senior (Please explain him the case, no one wants to expalin the whole story again). I have already shifted to Jio, considering your fabulous customer service track record... Call me [protected]...

                                  O/g call problem (Airtel number [protected]) via @airtelindia, when we want to call a number (Say x) via #airtel, we dial x number & call from airtel, after ring, x take the call to answer me, suddenly call disconnected having error message "call ended". Actually this happens occasionally, not every time. O/g call connect but sometimes, it gets painful and does not seem to call.😂
                                  Call ended problem during #nationalroaming due to vlr which is non responding to hlr and msc. So when, we call someone, vlr not identify via hlr occasionally and msc disconnect the call "call ended".
                                  So resolve this type of problem?
                                  Is "call ended" bug, had reached to your #nationalroaming software?? That cause your system is corrupt, you should to fix it immediately!क्योंकि आप लोग हमारी समस्या का सुधार नहीं कर रहे हो?
                                  Is your volte service working in roaming?

After they asked for pan, aadhar and bank statement now 9 days gone, no soltion, yesterday (17/01/2017) one of customer care executing was saying that problem will be solved by tomorrow (18/01/2017) but when i call to cce today (18/01/2017), now they are saying that your date of birth is miss matched. I dont know where airtel india is matching my date of birth i have already submitted pan aadhar and bank statement, i did not get any mail from airtel india, they did not inform me about my dob, now qustion is if they informed me about my dob mismatched then why yesterday cce assured me for solution by today

                                        I have ported my number from vodafone to airtel but my new airtel sim is not working even after 9 days of porting request.

                                        My old sim stopped working and my when i inserted my new sim i am getting message "mobile network not available", now currently my both sim are not working.

                                        Frankly speaking i am frustrated with the service that i am getting from you guys. I have raised request for port on 9th january 2018, after 9 days my problem have only doubled instead of getting resolved, as now my both sim are not working.

                                        Is this your world class service

                                        If i call on customer care or go to airtel store (They replace my sim 3 times) they don't have any solution also,.

                                        Please make my number operational otherwise tell me who will be responsible for the loose that i will go through because of inactiveness of sim. Please solve my problem. My business has stopped because of this.

                                        Hoping this time my issue will be resolved

                                        My number is [[protected]]

                                        Hi, i was using this number from last one year, and every month unknowingly Airtel enabling "GAMEPIND" service and deducting whatever charged money.
                                        I tried calling their customer care and nobody responding. And i lost almost 50+ rs

                                        Request you to credit all the money back and let me know.
