Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Its been a month i have raised request for broadband connection with airtel and everytime an associate calls me stating feasibility check will be done and they will get back to me. It happened for almost 10 days and then one executive was sent to collect documents and money after confirming connection is available in my locality. I was informed to get connection in 4 days and later when i checked with airtel customer care, they said again they are checking for feasibility check. This went on and on and on and at last i was informed there is no feasibility in my area. This was told after 1 month after me chasing up with appalate team after fed up with customer care. Even appalate team are worst, whenever i drop a mail, they pick it up freshly without referring my previous history and just give me same answers. These people just frustrate customers without bothering about
Anything.

Now to check refund, they asked me to share bank details. I have shared it once and still following up with them. After dropping multiple mails, again they are asking me to share the bank details with same mail format as previously. Every day new executive and he will treat my request from scratch. So what the point in having a customer care and an highest point of escalation, which doesnt even track an history of a request

I need refund and if possible i would need a connection as i am really of need of it.

My father V.Mohanasundaram has been using Airtel No. ([protected]) since last 10 years. This number has been linked to all my bank accounts and other important services. Recently this no. has been out of service without any prior notication. Initially I though that this may be due to SIM damage, since there no SMS of disconnection. Later, I went to Airtel centre in Perambur, Chennai to get a duplicate SIM. There, I was informed that this number is disconnected and sent for sale with new SIM. Now I cannot get this SIM again. I am deeply surprised by hearing this. I never expected Airtel to do such kind of poor service to its loyal customers. Now I had to go after each bank and other services to register a new number. All my friends and relatives are having this contact.

I expect some response from airtel representatives after seeing this complaint. If there is no positive response, I would not recommend Airtel service to my friends and relatives. I will also change my family numbers to other service providers.

Hi team

I have raised many a complaints with airtel customer care for this issue. They are just closing the problem ticket without any resolution. I stay on the 21st floor of one of the most porsche areas of indirapuram ghaziabad. Airtel boasts of network, that too 4g connectivity in the remotest corners of india but i dont get any signal at my 21st floor apartment irrespective of the fact whether i am inside or standing in the open lift lobby. My postpaid airtel number is [protected] and my mother is also facing the same problemwith her airtel connection [protected].

P. S. If i am not able to make or take calls then i will not pay a single paisa.

Without my knowledge my sim replacement was done at airtel outlet on 30th april, x persona approached one of the airtel outlet submitted my photo copy my id and took my sim on 30th april (Saturday) @ hyderabad and 1st may is sunday and i took new sim on 2nd may (Monday) @ vishakhapatnam after, meanwhile x person the sim misused and filled and filed ftr in police station.

I same regards i sent mail to nodal team on 15th may till now i did not received any response

Pls give some evidence who took the my sim, so that same it can submitted in court to defend my self

Dear sir,

I prabhakar reddy, converted from post paid airtel to prepaid airtel 12/05/2016 and my services disconnected on 13/05/2016 after 6.00 pm and
Reactivated on prepaid on 16/05/2016 but i am unable to recharge/call to any body and i contacted your branch where i submitted the application thamman enterprises/airtel office at road no 12, banjarahills, hyderabad, what they are saying is we have some technical problem, still now also not rectified the issue.

[protected] - i bought this airtel postpaid number in delhi and i have been using it for a couple of months until i got back to my hometown (Chennai). Please note that i did not give any nominee phone number while i signed up my form because i did not have any address in delhi but since i was working for hike ltd the provider told me that wouldn't be a problem so they gathered my id proofs (Which is in my chennai's address) and i got my sim activated and everything was fine until i got back to my hometown chennai. I started losing signal on my phone frequently and kept on complaining about it but airtel did not respond properly. And eventually my sim had gone to 'no service' mode. And i was busy launching my own firm so i thought if someone from airtel shows up at my doorstep then i can pay the bill. But after a month i started using my brother's phone number for the time being. And one day the contacts that i have called from my delhi sim ([protected]), they started getting calls and airtel support people (Neha) lied to them that i have gave their number as nominee and tried to reach me to my new number instead of showing at up my door step. I started receiving msgs from my contacts (Around 10 of them) through my facebook saying they received the same call saying i gave their numbers as nominee. Finally they even called my mother and got the temporary number (Not registered under my name). They got that number and reached me. I asked them who the hell gave them authorization to access my call logs and that's all. They couldn't not answer about it at all and ms. Neha confessed that she accessed my call logs and apologised for it. I asked her to transfer the call to her manager and that guy (Forgot his name) promised me that i don't have to pay any bills or no one from airtel would call me until he investigates this issue and get back to me within a day. And its been 1 month since he said that and i get calls everyday from their support team asking me to pay the bill. I explain each of those people everyday for an hour and everyone would say 'we'll get back to you' and then they'll disappear and next person would call. This kept on happening and i lost patience and i complained via twitter. And this genius mr. Shashanth ([protected]) called me and listened to the whole story again and i asked him for his name n phone number. And he said no one will call me until he investigates this issue and its been a week and again i started receiving calls from airtel then i tried to reach mr. Shashanth and that punk is ignoring my calls & i have been trying to reach him for the past 4 days. They invaded their customer's privacy by accessing my call logs and they can't even give a proper explanation but they have the gut to ask me to pay the bill and its my job to explain these everyday?

I'm pressing charges against this people if i receive one more call.

Poor service provided by airtel broadband Internet connection as I have an airtel broadband Internet connection which is not working from more than 48 hours as well as I have called at 121 atleast 20 times nobody has visited the complaint
Airtel has very poor service as the customer care 121 told that the engineer will visit in 24 hours still after 50 hours no engineer visit to attend the complaint they told that in 24 hours they have 8 hours of working so the complaint will be done in 24 hours ie 8*3 = 24 hours
That means after three working days
With so much poor service how could we become digital India
Very bad, poor, disgusting, time waisting, Service from airtel broadband please improve this
As I have been suffering from loss in my business and valuable time
My land line no is [protected]
Complaint reference number is 67863444

The airtel telecom company that claim to have the widest network through advertisement. They advertise showing that they have network in deserts and forest areas but the truth is they have the worse network and it does not have networks in villages and cities too. I have a airtel sim and its been a rough journey throughout with this sim.. Terrible network issues, poor customer service and not worthy for the money we spend.. I have already spend double the amount thats required to get a sim and still there's no response or resolution to the problem...
