          I have ported my number [protected] from vodafone to air tel. I have received the message stating that porting got successful and my vodafone number got deactivated, when i inserted air tel sim i am not getting the signal. I have contacted your customer service so many times but none responding the correct way. I am facing this problem for the past 1 and half day. I have cleared all the outstanding amount on vodafone side and they are saying that there is no issue on there side. Is this the way you treat the customers? This is the worst response i have never seen on the network operator side, others are way better

            Hi, 6-7 months ago i got a new sim card from airtel but after some network issue i asked their executives to closed the number after paying the first 2 months bill. After that i never received any bill or communication from airtel. Suddenly after 5 months i received a legal notice from airtel to pay a bill of 2000 rupees. As i have not used the number i am not going to pay the bill for it. Its airtel fault that after getting my number closed they are still creating bill for this inactive number without my information. This is very annoying.

              Starting 03/01/2018, i've been unable to access mobile data for the postpaid numbers [protected] and [protected]. On checking in myairtel app, the app displays that both of my numbers are invalid airtel accounts. On trying to contact 121, i get an option to key in my mobile number, following which, ivrs says that my number is invalid. On contacting customer care center, i was given a airtel network related number 12118. On contacting this and explaining my concern, an sr #82465845 was raised regarding this issue and i was promised that the an airtel network team representative will call regarding this issue and will be resolved in 48 hours. To my surprise, i never recieved any call from them, but the status of the sr stands closed and i recieved an sms stating the issue has been resolved. However, the issue has not been resolved. Later, i tried contacting 12118 again, and this time i was told that it'd take 72 hours to fix the issue. I seriously don't understand what the problem is with my sim and your customer care. Finally, after result less tries, i've decided to port my network, however, on requesting port code to 1900, i get a message that there's a system error. It has been 3 days without mobile data! Can you even understand the situation! Hope to hearing from you asap!

                I have been using this airtel internet connection since july 2015. I had no issues or complaints until july 2017.

                I started facing the network connectivity issue (Basically the network coverage issue in and around padmanabhanagar, bangalore where i stay) back in july 2017. I was absolutely not able to connect to the network inside my residence.in august 2017, i raised a complaint with the airtel customer care and requested them to resolve the issue at the earliest as i relied mainly on this airtel internet service to do my office work. Also, i made sure that the dongle instrument i was using was fine and it was the issue with the airtel network.

                Initially, i was told that the issue will be resolved within 48 hours. I followed up with the customer service people to know the status. For almost two months they told me that the issue is on hold (Not sure for what reason). One person told me that there is some problem at the junction box. I could not understand which junction box. After two months one fine day, one of the customer service person told me that the ticket has been resolved/closed at their end (Without actually resolving the issue). I was still not able to connect to the network.

                As there was absolutely no service from airtel for almost three months and airtel did not resolve or rectify the network issue that i complained, i stopped paying the bill. No one would be happy to pay for something that they are not able to use. So, i immediately requested the airtel customer care to disconnect the connection from their records.

                Instead, they have been generating bill on my dongle for every month. Now, they have summed up the bill to rs.5, 186.92 which is quite a huge amount and they have been calling me every day to pay the bill. Every time, a different person calls me, i have to narrate him the entire story and no one seems to do anything to sort out this issue.

                I am an airtel customer since more than ten years and i used this airtel internet connection through dongle for more than 3 years. I never had any problem with airtel all these years. But, now i am seriously disappointed with this pathetic service from airtel.

                    Suddenly my sim card becomes deactivated on last friday (29.12.17). Next day, i have gone to the airtel store at barasat. They have have given the sim card twice on that day saying that it will be be activated within 4 hrs. Nothing has happened. They are not even replying properly. They have not provided their contact number also. The customer care saying sim card has no problem. Network is not coming at all till date. As because i am staying in kharagpur now, i have gone to the airtel store here. They have charged for the sim card from me again. The sim card has not yet activated. The person here is not picking the phone and behaving harshly with me when i called from different number. I have given this number to everywhere. Everytime they are saying that no issue. It will be done. Nothing has been done for last one week the details are given below:

                        I am using an airtel postpaid connection and my bill is overdue but am unable to pay my bill because neither the airtel app nor the airtel online postpaid bill payment website is ready to accept my number, as i go for bill payment it says that the number is incorrect and please fill in a correct number, i have been facing this problem for a while now and am totally fed up with airtel. I want to switch to vodafone bit since there's a minimum time that i gotta use this number isn't up i have no choice but to continue with this number.
                        How do i pay my freaking bill when even airtel isn't ready to acknowledge my number as their postpaid connection.
                        Where do i complaint to the highest authority for this mistreatment.
                        My number is [protected].

                        Whenever I call there is always distortion in my communication and worst internet connection...
                        The day i recharged I'm facing issue with data.. data doesn't work at all... This is a fraud recharge and waste of money...I need u guys to get back me and get it sorted

                          Hello i am using airtel from past 4 years never faced such problem, from past 2 weeks i am not able to access internet during daytime.in my phone it shows that internet is connected but the net doesn't works. Despite regular complaints at airtel my problem is still not solved and still faceing the same problem. Despite having 2 gb regular daily data i am not able to access it. Ironically it works only at night 1-5 am. I am literally unsatisfied with this network. - saumya

                            I’m from chennai and after a small amount of rain in our area the networks have been to its worst and inspite of repeated complaints we only get the reply saying we are resolving it but actually there is not even a single percent improvement and everytime i have to refresh my networks and have to cut the call and try it again and again this has been an serious problem for me because i’m a doctor and i’m not able to communicate to my patients because of this network and it has really affected my lifestyle for the past one month and i’m getting only 2g in my latest 4g handset sometimes and most of the times it’s no service

                                  Hence, you, please, stop the call forwarding facility to my number [protected], till you are advised of the same.

                                    I have shifted from mumbai to banglore. I already had airtel postpaid number since past 5 years. I have raised a request for circle change from mumbai to karnatka on 13th dec 2017. But instead of circle change airtel has deactivated my number from all the services on 19th december 2017 without any notification. Since that day i am calling customer care again and again, dropping emails, visiting airtel stores but no one. Is helping. This is really very ridiculous as i cant do any online transaction or anything as it was my registered number since past 5 years. Also yesterday airtel guy gave me new sim raised request for the activation but still its not working and you guys are again not responding. I had paid advance payment as well. Also it cost me lots of money as i was unable to do any online payment on my due dates. My complaint number is [protected].
