Airtel Broadband Account No- [protected]

Given below are the details of my grievance. Kindly, help

I applied for a new broadband connection with airtel towards the end of September 2016. A person from SJR telelinks came to my house and took Rs 1200 in cash, saying that Rs 200 is the charge towards the notary filing for rental agreement. He gave me a receipt of 1000. He informed that someone will come to my house for installation, but nobody came. I called the customer service and raised a complaint. They told me that there is no feasibility in my area for a broadband connection. I am still waiting for the refund of my Rs 1200 and it is 16/12/2016 today. Mt account no with airtel is [protected] . I have raised several complaints with customer service, but to no avail. I got a call from a lady from airtel, who informed me, that someone will call me and return the amount to me in cash. But i did not get any call and this was almost 3 weeks ago. I spoke to the customer service team again today, where i was transferred to a supervisor Vinod, who said he is connecting me to a higher department and the call got disconnected from their end, while i was on hold. I have no other option but to raise a complaint in consumer complaints now. Kindly help in retrieving Rs 1200 for me and take all necessary actions against Airtel for this poor customer service they have provided.

Given below are my details

House No 15, SRB Philomena Nilayam
New Thippasandra, 4th Main
Jagadish Nagar
Bangalore- 560075
contact no-[protected]

I do have a copy of that receipt as well and the number given for that company SJR telelinks does not exist as well

I have also raised it with consumer complaints.
Please find attached a copy of that

Thanks and Regards

Sagar Chatterjee
