Good! Airtel values customer feedback and works quickly to address complaints. They handle issues regularly and provide solutions, making customers feel heard and supported, however, we would recommend that Airtel step up their efforts to fully resolve all complaints 👍

I've ported my no. from Vodafone to airtel and i've also inserted new sim but verification call to 59059 is not connecting. every time i try to call at 59059 it shows not registered on network automatically disconnects and also i'm unable to receive incoming calls to my number. I couldn't believe how airtel is so weak in customer service.

      I have applied for Airtel Black (Fibernet+DTH) and asked me to pay 1500 rupees for the DTH. I have paid it on November 9, 2022 and now they said feasibility for Fibernet is not available so cancelling your connection. They have cancelled it but still no refund has been provided.

          My name is Srikrishnan. We purchased this no. almost 15yrs back and we have been the sole user of this no. I even registered this no with mother's aadhar. Recently I purchased a 4g mobile for my mother and we tried to get 4g sim. But the customer care said that this no is registered in someone else's name. We have been the sole user of this no and I don't know how this happened. We want this no and we request Airtel to assist in necessary actions to get 4g sim for this no.

            Hello,
            I am living in Madurai city. I am only receiving one or bar of network strength from my internet service provider(Airtel) and and I can't even make a call for a minute. If I made a call the call hangs up automatically after some seconds. Sometimes I don't even get any mobile reception. Due to this I have to buy a broadband to access internet for my education. I am really concerned about incoming call what if someone is making a call in emergency. Please take required action. Thank you for your time.

              My AirTel number is [protected]. I had done recharge and paid 2999.00 on Nov 22 - Order ID[protected]
              The amount has been deducted from my bank account but the recharge is not showing up. I have tried raising complaints multiple times via the app on the phone with AIR TEL but they keep closing it without resolving it.
              Ticket # COTHR3CHD[protected]

              I have another ticket # COTHR3CHD[protected] opened now(3rd one) . But nothing has been resolved.

                Hello Airtel,
                Having an issue on reward claim

                I suggest everyone to stop using Airtel network
                This is not first time, every time having issues frequently
                Number 1 hopeless network is Airtel

                Airtel team is providing offers on recharges, but not possible to claim after recharge

                This is airtel’s scam

                    I was trying to add money to my Airtel wallet connect to number [protected] on 22/11/2022 for the amount of Rs.460. I got a error message which said something like "error this transaction can't be made now" and it disappeared. There was no transaction ID, even there was nothing shown in the transaction history but the money was debited from my bank account. I tried to add money to the wallet through SBI net banking. I have a message recived through the bank for the transaction and the epass book picture. Kindly refund my money back.

                      Hi
                      I am Gopal a resident of Chennai. I am seeking an E-sim for my newly bought Apple watch. being regular user of Airtel telecommunication, I applied for esim to Airtel. But my requestion was rejected mentioning invalid email id, however that’s my personal email id and even executive from airtel are also communicating with me through same email id. I requested to provide more details and called them several times, but all my requests fallen into deaf ears. It’s been a month and I lost my hope to get any details regarding this, hence requesting you to help me to know what’s exactly the issue is I am attaching all communication details for your reference.

                      I am so much frustrated with their service, this is only the last hope where I can get my solution so, please do needful.

                      My Email Id is: [protected]@gmail.com

                          Dear Team,
                          I had booked a new Airtel DTH connection on 21st Nov, 2022. Even after 5 days there has been no move to get the connection installed. I have requested customer care center and dealer to cancel my connection request multiple times. Each time they keep redirecting my calls or ask me to wait. I have made multiple calls to everyone concerned to get the connection installed or cancel my request. I had paid the amount ₹1300 at the time of booking. I can get a refund only if Airtel cancels my request. They are not ready to do that also. Tired and frustrated with Airtel customer care service. Kindly help.
                          My customer ID is [protected]

                                Hello,

                                I recently ported my number from Vi to Airtel on prepaid service. I am unable to activate Facetime on my iPhone using Airtel.

                                I have contacted Apple and they have said that all the settings are correct.

                                I am getting the error message "Verifying..."

                                "Facetime Activation - An error occurred during Activation. Try again"

                                Please help.
                                Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                  Hi, I have initiated Airtel Xstream internet connection on Sunday i.e. on 20 Nov, 2022. They have asked me to make the payment first, I did the payment now there is no response from their side. Also, the internet connection is not activated yet. I have tried to call them 500 times but every time they said there is back end issue. Now I am asking for refund but again no response. Please find the screenshots attached and contact number below.

                                  After struggling for 4 days, finally my issue is resolved. The verification is pending from the Airtel side for which they are taking so much days, also they were not refunding the amount Rs.2828. Finally it get sorted. Thank you.
