Airtel Complaints & Reviews

We have drop cheque at your airtel gallary located at mulund mumbai 400080, but we have received 10 calls from your office for no receipt of payment, though the cheque is cleared from our bank and clearly showing the debited entry in favour of bharti airtel, the same details along with cheque no date amount we have shared with your staff calling from [protected] & [protected] but there is no action taken as yet.

In the mean time our broadband service is slowed down and some time stopped
Please suggest what to do???

Dear sir
I m ramgarh cantt (Jharkhand) some day ago my phone theft in train after that when went to your distributor satyam communication for took a new replacement sim but at the distributor point they demanded rs. 200 for a new sim. Is it not a harassment of customer. Kindly take action against the distributor satyam communication ramgarh cantt.

The data speed is very low as compared to other internet service provide. I am using the portable hotspot as well as a sim card and i am observing this issue for both the device.
It is showing that it has the 4g network but it does not have 4g's speed.
If you gone find out the issue and respond me, then do it as early as possible.
Other wise i will be changing my service provide.

Thanks

I added rs 10000 on jan 06, 2018 and when i tried to make transaction it's saying debit is not allowed.. I'm not able to make any transaction using airtel payment bank and my amount is blocked with them. I tried calling airtel payment bank customer care on number 400 but it's not connecting to customer care executive.

Please do the needful on urgent basis as my money is blocked. My number is [protected].

Thanks!

The below has been raised several times at customer care but no response and it is just poor handling service at customer care.

Raised complaint po[protected] on 26th nov 2017 which nobody resolved.

Being charged for isd services during my travel to italy. Before travel, i received call from airtel care for isd which i refused. When reached italy on my 1st day i noticed isd is active. Raised complaint po[protected] on 25th oct 2017 to deactivate but nothing happened. I had no means to switch off mobile as had matrix card on other sim slot and sim slot could not be opened (Needed pin for the same).

Now i am being charged 6 day isd service. Have been loyal to airtel (Mobile and broadband). But now being cornered to pay for these irrelevant service charges.

Airtel has messaged that if amount not cleared then outgoing call will be deactivated in 2 days. Even if you force me to pay this unfair charge, i am surely taking number portability.

Hi,
I was not used airteldth from nov 2016 to nov 2017 (Was out of town) then i got sms offer saying recharge for rs 999 for 1 year and continue same as your previous. I did a bundle and everything was fine until 4th jan 2018. Suddenly they stopped all my sun network channels and i called customer care. They are saying it's not part of your package, pay 66rs extra per month to continue the service. Also, customer service is very rude.
Before i recharge it was showing all the channels, after some days they stopped some channels and pay extra, it's like cheating to pay extra for those channels. Need the solution for it?

I use airtel home portable wifi service.
I have been facing network connectivity issues since 2nd jan'18. No or very low speed, not good to even open a mail box.

I have complained several times over phone and email, however i only get to hear that the airtel tech team is looking into the same and will resolve soon.

I work from home and my job depends on this 4g service.
72+ hours and airtel has still not figured out what the issue is, let alone fixing it.

I was also promised a technician visit on 4th jan'18. I am still waiting for that to happen and it's 6th now.

Guess airtel is taking their customers for granted.

Need a resolution here.
I stay in pune, new sanghvi, next to new sanghvi police station, near sai chowk

I recharged with rs 448 for daily 1 gb high-speed data but not showing any data plan in my airtel app. I called 198 for query they told me that this plan hide from app i said ok. But still not opening my internet on any browser. I restarted my phone many time but continue facing problem. I am also jio customer jio browsing very good without any recharge but airtel 448 plan not working... Also called 198 for same issue but not get positive response... Customer service is very bad

I am facing issue my mobile number [protected] during recharge. I have ported from bsnl (Andhra pradesh circle) to airtel (Chennai circle). Iinitially i am able to recharge online but from last two weeks i am facing this issue. Earlier i was able to recharge my number.

1. Unable to recharge from airtel wallet. Message that i get is ‘invalid mobile number, please enter valid mobile number’. It is working fine with other airtel number.

2. Unable to recharge for internet, paytm and other modes. It give message unsuccessful transaction. This is happening only with my mobile number ([protected]), it is working fine with other airtel number.

3. I tried with other person asking him to recharge my number but it fails.

Finally i unable to recharge my mobile number.

I have contacted customer care nearly 8 times, and visited airtel retail branch and even emailed but still my problem is not resolved since 2 weeks. Kindly resolve at the earliest.

Whenever i check the daily data usage of my rs.448 plan on my airtel prepaid sim i see so much different result. The actual usage in my phone is 2mb but what airtel shows is 448 mb. I had registered many complaints but none found a soln. Its not the first time and i started collecting proofs too. The difference is too much inflated that you cant imagine and i get blocked from data usage due to this reason

I am a foreign student from europe studying in delhi since 2015. I have renewed my student visa in oct 2017. The competent government authorities took 3 weeks for this process - which meant that my visa expired on 28th oct 2017 and i received the renewal on the 7th nov 2017. I submitted my new visa to airtel immediately as well as the application for the reactivation of my number. They told me at the shop it will take 3-4 days. 3 weeks later after numerous calls and visits there they told me there was a problem and that my number will be reactivated in 24 hrs. It is now january 2018. The new simcard they gave me still has no network and hence cannot call 59059. Today i called my old number[protected] and someone else answered on it. Which means airtel allocated my number to someone else. This means, all my accounts, including the government of india will call this number and give sensitive information to a complete stranger.

The rules say that you have 1 month to complete the application for renewal. I did it as soon as i have received the visa. I even went the day of my submission of visa renewal application with the document frro provides to ask airtel to not disconnect my services as i am waiting for the renewal of visa. The government officials said that paper was enough to ensure my phone number stays activated but the airtel people in the shop said only visa can work.

I am now stuck in a foreign country with no phone number - i am using a friend's phone number. My embassy and the bank and all my contacts are trying to contact me on this number and i am having a lot of issues. Please help me get my number back this is unacceptable. I have done everything according to procedures yet this level of low service that plays with my security and government laws is not ok. I will be forced to make this a diplomatic issue and report it in the court of law as well as to the media.

Today I received a message to continue or close airtel payment bank account by sending 'A' and 'D'. But I can't submit 'D' for closing the account.
How could you even dare to open any account without my concern? So, close that account no-[protected] immediately, otherwise I'd rather make complaint to the telecom authorities or ombudsman.

Customer care ko phone kiya to already 6 minutes baat karne me lagate hai, baad me phone customer care wale kat dete hai,
Rate bhi batate nahi apne aap rate badhate rahte hai, aisa faltu service hai,
Aur online payment kiya to 15 massage aate hai dish ka payment kiya hai,
300 ka recharge kiya to 100 ka recharge hua, 150 ka recharge hua 50 ka recharge hua aisa aata hai
15 massage aaye hai muze

I notified customer care about inflated charges as soon as i noted on airtel app that unbilled amount has crossed my credit limit of rs1400/_. And that my usage is not that much. I asked customer care to find out the reason of inflated billing. But i was told to wait till the end of cycle. I shared my fear that till the end of cycle the bill will accrue much more and my usage is not that much. The bill raised upto 5800/_till the end of cycle. No bill was sent to me by email or post. I had deactivated the app due to some problem in mobile handset. I switched service provider as i found the attitude of customer care very callous. I had infirmed them about the bill running into huge amount and much above my usage, just 5 days into the new cycle, still they didnot take any action.
