Hi,

I am a frasted customer of airtel, because before 6 month ago i raised a complaint about internet issue, but somehow it is still in pending, but this is not a issue in your openion, but still on 10th dec.2017, i visit the following airtel store, submit documentation for postpaid to prepaid conversion, he gave me 2 days deadline, but it is not resolved, again i called customer care they said it takes 4 days, ok i again wait for 4 days, but it is not converted, again i complaint customer care, they gave 24 hours deadline, but again same the issue was not resolved, then i visited airtel store they said they dont have any revert of the mail, again i called customer care they again gave me 24 hours deadline, but still the same issue this is not converted, i call prepaid customer service they said they didn't have any request about postpaid to prepaid conversion.

So my question is, is i have to pay 1 year bill extra to convert this number to prepaid in airtel prepaid as well, is this is the way you deal with your customer?, or like my previous request against internet which is not solved after 6 month, like that i have to wait 6 month atleaset for conversion.

I am very frasted with your service, i dont know i am with your network since more then 1 year.
I visited your store 2 times - one side auto expence is - 60 for both side 120, so i visited 2 times - means rs.240.
Again i have to pay my rentel 1 week extra mean approx 200. So i have to pay total rs. 440, for this, till today.
So who is goint to bear this expence.

Thats beacuse i need this number, thats why i am waiting and requesting, otherwise i through this number an your service in dustbin.

Or i have to to customer forum, for this, please tell clearly. And asap, so that i will take necessry steps.

Store address - airtel store, sec 14, gurgaon, near om sweets. Gurgaon (Delhi ncr)
My number is - [protected].

Again your frusted customer.

    Hi all,
    I have raised a complain before 4 to 5 months regarding network issue in my area. But nothing happened until i shoot a mail to the nodal office. After mailing nodal officer a survey held at my address in next 15 days and after that nothing happend yet.

    It was happened before 4 to 5 months ago and i am still facing the same issue. Now what is the solution i am not able to understand as the upper level management also don’t looks interested to resolve the issue.

    Port number in other operator will be better option.
    Poor network, no voice clarity, no 4g connection/3g worst as well and network remains poor always.

    Main ne airtel payment bank account kiya to debit nahi hota hai sahikaro

    I have about 38gb data in my number airtel postpaid [protected].but unable to use it even though the 4g network is excellent in my area. this happens every month. automatically settles for few days after complaint. again n the problem recurrs.
    I have airtel 1GB/Day 4G data plan on my airtel prepaid. I check my data usage continuously, but I hardly use 600MB when airtel says I have used my data usage limit. This is a story of every another day from last 6-8 month. This is highly irritating. I feel cheated. So this is high time to port in to JIO.
    Recharged for 110 got topup 100 but without my consent deducted 99 for Airtel superstore; I am not interested ; please refund my Rs 99/- It’s disgusting on Airtel to dupe customers. sent sms to STOP- if not done within next one hour then will change to JIo. Call me at [protected] bsnl number.

        Hi,

        I have airtel prepaid no which i have been using since 2 years. This number is registered in my all banks and gov. Record.

        I am in international roaming and have problem with network. I logged a case with airtel ' [|bal|ref56826595|]' and mail flow is running since more than 7 days now but no output.

        Every alternate day someone calls and tells that matter has been escalated but output is still 0.

        Not sure how to escalate this issue to airtel higher management. If anyone has any reference then please share it with me.

                Dear sir,

                Myself “ashwani raj” using airtel number “[protected]” since long while moving to china for a business trip i subcribed to a basic 2999 plan for 10 days, i used 1 gb of it in 5 days and disconnected it once i landed in india. Now airtel gave me a bill of 78000/- after almost 2 months, against international roaming data usage for a period of 1 hours in bangkok. I didn’t subscribe to thailand roaming. I used free wifi at the airport and now airtel people are calling in for bill payment.

                I have few question, when my credit limit is 2000/-, how come airtel didn’t restrict my services? Why i have not received my alert and mail regarding the usage? Why i have been told to wait for 2 months for bill?

                I am a working person with very low income i have the responsibility for my family, i am the only person working in my family. Due to this wrong bill, i m mentally disturb, i am not able to pay this wrong bill. Please get this checked.

                Thanks!
                Ashwani

                  Hi,

                  I submitted a request to convert my postpaid number to prepaid on dec 11th monday. I paid all bills promptly on time and settled the interim balance of billing cycle and got a prepaid sim for 30 rs from airtel arc facility at navalur chennai. I was informed that the migration would happen in 96 hours (4 days) after which for 1 day my mobile wouldn't work and thereafter i can use the prepaid sim. It's now more than 7 days nothing has happened and airtel appellate team doesn't respond to my emails any longer. Airtel customer is so poor and pathetic and it is better to avoid airtel in chennai or tn circle. As the appellate officer manikandan (I assume is new) is a complete waste and customers will have to lose their valuable time and not offered any good service.

                        I mistakenly recharged with rs 448 on [protected] while it should be [protected]. I called customer care but they said they can't do anything. I recharged with airtel website and i have transaction id from bank still airtel can't revert the transaction. Very bad customer service. Customer care doesn't reply properly and try to understand the problem. Worst service provider. Now i have made request for porting to vodafone

                          Hello,

                          I am very sorry to say this, but airtel is not giving a good and immediate service to customers. I am damn bored of rising complaints against the service, which now i call it as third class.

                          I had changed the plan from 8mbps to 16mbps, but the modem needs to be changed to run on 16mbps. We had registered so many complaints to send the technicians. The service centre say they have assigned the technician and will look into it within 2 hours. But still that 2 hrs has not yet come even after 3-4 days.

                          Consider this as a very serious issue, which may lead to loss of customers good reviews. If this issue is not solved by monday i am gonna remove the airtel broadband connection and get the reviews down sharing this with others who are eager to join as airtel customers.

                          Thanks,
                          Anup v

                              I contacted airtel broadband for a broadband connection, i asked the executive of airtel for around ten times that wether the connection is available in my area and all times airtel executive without checking said yes sir connection is available and asked me to make the payment as soon as possible and i made the payment on airtel executive commitment actually false commitment i have attached the copy of payment. Now for the false commitment made by airtel they are asking me to wait for 15 days for refund, already they made me wait for 48 hours saying that connection is available and we will install it soon, i never expected this from airtel, very disappointed, i request airtel to refund my money as soon as possible and make sure to refund on monday. Being a valuable customer of airtel i expect airtel to solve this as soon as possible. And i advice airtel to plz remove such executives who are degrading airtel status

                                    Hi,

                                    I was using a postpaid number, dueto some financial problem was not able to make the payment on time, i asked for extension, the agent name rashmi shouted on me on the phone and said complain i[censored] want to.
                                    I am upset with airtel they blocked my number which was linked every where i faced so much problem.
                                    Airtel have never been good, never when i joined they lied, then the customer service representatives are so rude.

                                    I wont pay the bill until airtel give me a compensation.
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
