    Airtel is promising and advertising all the time about the network n internet services they are providing. However, it is absolutely opposite in my area. I stay in ambernath west, near father agnel school. When i call or use internet in my flat, i can't even open a webpage or send any message using whats app or any other social media app. When i make a call from my cell, the receiver is not able to hear my voice properly. Making call is like a game in my flat, its a task game wherein you have to ask the receiver or caller to hold and you run to each n every corner of your flat and find out where is network proper so can make the call as normal call. Recharge for 3g or 4g pack and get 2g internet. This is i hope exclusively for my area. I have called and complained abouth the above, followed the giving workaround, network settings. But, no results. So complaining here in a hope to get better service in future.

      Shifting request initiated on 19-dec-2017. Even though it is told 3 days is the maximum time, not yet done. After 10 days, they are claiming, no able to contact me. Then next, claiming the new address is not traceable. Now claiming some port is not available.. Etc... The worst part is no clear intimation of what is happening. I will have to cancel this connection ad look for some other provider

        Hello,

        I'm using airtel [protected], network speed and signal in attapur 500048 is very bad. Most of the times network gets disconnected in the middle of the call. Also, airtel stopped calling services to bsnl landline. Response from the customer care is also bad. I see this issue in the most places of hyderabad. Request you to please resolve this issue asap.

              For the past 4 days internet connectivity has been degrading for the area around my house. Since yesterday i cannot connect to internet. Notification bar shows 3g symbol but no internet flows. Only when i go stand on the street a couple meters away from my builiding can i use my internet. Please look into this matter at the earliest as i need internet for my office work.

                  Website: airtel.in

                  I had applied for airtel broadband connection and paid advance rental for six months for which i confirmed twice with sales person whether feasibility is available in my area and after confirming the same, payment was made to airtel. I waited for any communication for any further update and status but on checking, i was told that feasibility is not there in my area. I complained it to nodal office and appellate authority for refund amount for which i was asked to submit copy of cancelled cheque only. I refused to submit cancelled cheque and i was getting phone calls / email from their office with different statements that we will refund your amount once work order is cancelled within 7 days. Now when i submitted bank account details, they are insisting for cancelled cheque only and there is no rule to submit cheque only. It can be any mode. Request you to look into it and advise concern team to do the needful.

                    Hi team,

                    I recently converted my postpaid number to prepaid. The conversion was succesful and the new prepaid sim was activated after tele verification.
                    But now when i try to recharge my mobile number with myairtel app am always getting transaction failed error.

                    I assumed it was some software glitch in the app and i tried to recharge using paytm. I recharged my mobile number for rs448. The transaction was successful but still that amout is not reflected in my account balance.

                    And am not able make any calls. This impacts my work. Pls fix this issue asap.
                    I need to make urgent phone calls. So pls expediate.

                    I have copied the operator reference number from paytm.

                    Operator ref. Number[protected]

                            Dear airtel team,

                            On good faith and my past experience, i decided to change my airtel cccp number ([protected]) to postpaid number on my name and necessary documentation was done. Did received sms that address verification has been completed.

                            To my nightmare, to previous sim was deactivated first and my new sim is not working for past 4 days. I attempted calling 59059 numerous times for past 4 days but it automatically gets disconnected. I sent many sms as status (Mobile no) to 121 & [protected] but it never reverts.

                            Called up call centre and asked them to register complaint and they explained that it may take another 24 hours. It doe snot works again.

                            You people have mad my life miserable since i am unable to do nay online transaction (Financial / non financial) since the no is attached everywhere. Thanks for my business loss since that no i am carrying for last 3 years and is with every customer of mine and nobody is able to reach me.

                            Its the worst and pathetic way of working. If airtel infra is not good and supportive, why the hell you advertise everywhere that you each every nuk and corner of the country.

                            Atleast let me know if i can port my number to some other operator at this stage since i am clueless and your 121 services calls my number as not correct and disconnects. Horrible.

                            Regards

                                Airtel has been cheating to me.
                                Im running on 499 postpaid plan and get 20 gb data per month. But whenever i use the internet its speed is about maximum 300kbps and its very slow but when i swith off the sim and turn it on again the speed is inreased to 2 to 3 mbps for about 5 minutes and then the same speed which is 300 kbps slowly works.
                                I have complaint it many times but no satisfied answer has been given to me.
                                Thereby i request you to take this complaint seriously.

                                Regards,
                                Airtel user

                                  Greetings, i had purchased an airtel prepaid sim linked to my aadhar card on 12th december 2017. And activated roaming service paying inr.559/-. But my sim was not having any network while i was travelling in maharashtra. After i came back, the network was restored by the airtel area manager. But again the network is down on my sim since 2 days and the retailer is not even able swap the sim as suggested by the airtel area manager. To my surprise airtel has not been able the resolve the matter. The number is activated on my bio metric with aadhar card.
                                  Best regards,

                                    I applied to change my postpaid to prepaid 27 / dec / 2017
                                    They charge me the bill amount and the prepaid amount, they ensure me to start the service with in 48 hrs but, after 4 days we are still waiting for the service to start. They told me that they will recharge my number, but they didn't even after 4 days so please take some actions against them and also inform us what action have you taken against them.
