        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]...

Full network Coverage 4G, Indoor and Outdoor both. कृपया आप लोगों से अनुरोध है कि हमारी call end की समस्या का जल्द से जल्द समाधान निकालिए। हमने आपके यहां कई दफा कंप्लेन किया लेकिन आप लोग लगता है कि मोटी बुद्धि के हो गए हो कभी कोई सुनवाई होती नहीं है और ना तो कुछ उसका समाधान निकल कर आता है।

                            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".

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

                                Hai am using airtel connection and this is one of the worst network which i ever seen more than 1000 times i spoke with customer care and there is no solution from them. Please don't take this connection and go for some other network.

                                  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

                                  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.

                                    I have bought a airtel 4g hotspot which is not working now. I have visited the sirtel store and they did not accept any complaint and without checking the device they advice me to check in any hardware store if the battery is having some issue. Even they did not help me on availability of battery for the device. Have spend 3000 on the device and now am not able to use and dont know to whom i should complaint.
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                    I dont know why you people are neglecting 3 G set users. Erlier you gave data in GB's to 4G set users for free. But charged 200 to 250 per 1GB 3G set users.
                                    Now you extended the benefit for all. But you are providing data at extremely slow rate. Plese rectify this. Otherwise once we buy 4 G set then we switch to GEO.
                                    Pls call me urgent on [protected]
                                    I want to change my bill mode from e-bill to paper.

                                      I'm in hungary for past 8 months because of my official work. I will come to india only after 3 months.

                                      Two weeks back, i got a message from airtel stating that i need to recharge my above mentioned number to avoid deactivation, since airtel people found no usage on my number for past 90days. I was unable to recharge my number in online at that time.

                                      Again i tried on 9th jan'18 it showing invalid number. Airtel people had deleted it without any intimation. All my official and personal transactions can be done only thru that number.

                                      When i approach airtel nodel team, they confirmed me that number can be activated within 15 days in any of my family member's name in prepaid. But when my brother approach airtel head office in santhome, they are saying that number can be activated only in postpaid in my name. For that too i need to appear in person. They were dragging us from chengalpattu to chennai for more than one week

                                      Worst part is, even i couldn't book my flight ticket without that number since all my bank transactions can be done only thru that number.

                                      I'm writing this mail with last drop of my hope. Please help me on this

                                      Thanks in advance!!

                                        P request
                                        Hello airtel team

                                        I have requested for mnp on my vodafone no to airtel on 9th of jan18 and it is 18th today. (9days), now my vodafone network is gone with the porting done from there side. The new airtel sim is not yet activated and this is very frustrating as i have called customer care several times and visited the airtel store with no positive response. Getting so much loss in my business due to this if my problem will not resolve i’ll raise complaint in trai.

                                        Please resolve asap
                                        Regards
                                        Fazeel khan
