      I had ported my no [protected] from vodafone to airtel. Porting was complete on 29 dec. I was using the airtel network until after half an hour, it displayed no service. And the network was gone. Customer care advised me to replace d sim which would take 4 working days to activate. I dnt have any alternate no. And it's my official no. Switching it off for a single day also can put my job at stake. Now i am regretting my decision of switching to airtel. And the airtel store people are not picking up my call.. Where i initiated the porting process. Kindly provide me with a solution whoever is reading this.
      My alternate no is [protected]. Email: [protected]@gmail.com

              I have an airtel postpaid connection since 8 yrs. For 4 yrs i was using ecs service and asked them to stop ecs 6 months back. They took 3 months to stop my ecs. Finally after 3 months they stopped the ecs. 3 more months down the line, ecs has hit my bank account again without me being informed!. I do not have sufficient funds in my bank account. The ecs is bounced and i had to pay penalty for ecs bouncing.
              For their mistake of activating ecs again without informing i had to get a remark on my credit score. It is so bad and i am very upset. I actually had signal problems in my area, i have called them multiple times, they have come to my place and checked. Later for few days, the signal was good. After that again signal got worse.. Even now the call gets cut suddenly. I have changed mobiles thinking it could be mobile problem.
              With these multiple issues i am going to change the network.

              Thanks & regards,
              Sangu srujana.

              Hi,
              After visiting airtel branch at Uppal, we came to know that by default ECS is activated. Because of which i had to face 2 problems.
              1) Pay penalty of rs. 413/- for ECS bouncing
              2) Remark on credit score for ECS bouncing.
              I know you cannot help on #2 now. Atleast work on #1 and refund the penalty i have paid to bank because you had activated ECS by default without informing me! Else I may have to go to consumer court.

              In the below email, you mentioned 'Rs. 235.85/- has been reversed back on[protected]'. Why are you reversing this amount? Please try to understand the problem first.
              Bill amount Rs. 235.85/- was paid by me manually through online on 18th this month. After that you activated ECS by default and ECS has hit by bank account on 26th Dec where i have insufficient balance in my bank account. That is the reason ECS is bounced. On 27th when I deposited some amount in my bank account, penalty of rs. 413/- was levied by bank automatically for bouncing ECS.

              You are trying to take the bill amount via ECS for the same month for which I paid manually through online, which is wrong. Please STOP ECS. Please refund the penalty of rs. 413/- i paid to bank because you activated ECS without my request. If you have any other queries, call me.

                I have always been a fan of airtel because of their superior quality of service. Even when everyone was jioing around i stood up for airtel in my group with quality of service as the only weapon. But this fan of yours is hurt now.

                #airtel - 6days and still i d'ont have the simcard activated. I had just initiated a sim change request and this is how they treat. 20 plus phone followups, 7 times store visit, 3 times new sim. Still the job has to be done. Patience is not hard to find these days. Respect it when someone shows it.

                I know you will be prompt here hopefully and would like to know the details. The mobile number is [protected] and it has been 7 odd days and i am yet to get my sim activated after documemt submit and multiple successful aadhaar authentication.

                This is utter harassment of a common man.

                No longer a fan

                    I had got a call from a number [protected] saying that they are calling from sbi and they are offering some reward points. A girl asked me to provide 16 digit card number which i denied, then she asked 4 digit which i gave. She then told me my 16 digit number. She also told not to share my cvv number with anyone. Later on i got 3 messages with otp. 1st transaction 10000 to airtel money, second 10000 to airtel money and third 2000 to paytm. My first two transaction were deducted, third one did not happen. Later i got a message fro [protected] that "welcome to sbi bank card your money will be refunded after 72 hours". I asked her how did the money got deducted, she said not to worry. I later found out that it was a fraud transaction. I am surprised how they had all information about my card and card details. I request my 20000 should be reimbursed from airtel money or sbi.

                      I have been requesting about bad network in our area (Anantha nagar phase -2, electronic city, bangalore) for the past 3 years towards airtel customer care. There is no action was taken and they always says the issue would be resolved in 3 months but it never resolved. Current it is very bad situation the signals are still worsen in our area. Due less signal it may draw more current which leads to health issues as well. Truly don't know is this right forum to complaint.

                      I have been paying around rs. 1000 every month but not able to utilize their services since there is not sufficient network connectivity.

                      Please do the needful.

Even detail data transaction in airtel system is not able to show full data consumption. When i told customer care to write complaint on same. They are not ready to take complaint. I am using airtel for so many days, but these time airtel is not able to provide proper service. Sorry to say but bad luck airtel.

                              I am vipin. Next generation tv service is activated in my number without my consent and deducted 250rs for two months. When i called customer care they says i have double confirmed by sending sms. However am sure that i have not activated. Now they can't refund the amount. This is clear case of cheating customer from air tell company. My number is [protected].

                                  We have purchased 6 numbers of Airtel WiFi dongle on Dec 1st and we paid the money also.

                                  But the WiFi dongle still not yet activated, we are calling the person who is from airtel dealer and he is not picking up the calls/not responding properly.

                                  Later he had sent the dongle bill through mail, Please find the attached photo.

                                  Is it really required so many days to activate the service.

                                  Recently last Friday we purchased the Vodafone dongle and it got activated within 3-4 days and we are using that.

                                  Why other operator doing fast and why not Airtel.

                                  Kindly take an action. We paid the money.

                                      I was having a boradband/fixed line connection in my home. However, i have never utilised the full capacity of the same. Technician used to visit when ever we lodge a complaint but the problem starts up very soon. At last i cancelled the connection and installed the services of other operator. I spoke to the service department for more than 30 minuets as she want to retain me, while the technician still not able to reinstate the service. I explained to her and she finally agreed to cancel the connection. Now i am surprised to receive a bill for payment of rs 1178.82, which is illogical.

                                      I request trai to take action.
