Airtel — Fraud bill after requesting for disconnection

Address:Bhopal

Hi AirTel Team,

I am writing this email in my huge disappointment with my latest bill showing in AirTel account.

I have been using Airtel SIM card since long years and due to that trust I also added one broadband connection for my home in Indore.

Now I have been relocated to bhopal due to my job, so I decided to discontinue that connection because now I am working from office and I have no use of it, also it will cost me around INR 1000.

So I called to Airtel CUSTOMER care 121 where one guy convinced me to continue connection however plan will be downgraded and it will cost monthly around INR 500, so I agreed and shared my new address of bhopal.

After 2-3 days, a person from Airtel calls me and informs that fiber cable connection is not available at my pincode.

I was disappointed and I replied to that guy to register my request for disconnection.

I paid my outstanding to clear it and was waiting for CALL TO collect the Router device, but now what I am seeing that still bill of INR 942 is showing pending for my account and when I called to CUSTOMER care, a girl says me that I have paid bill of Oct -Nov cycle and now this pending bill is for Nov - Dec cycle.

This is really ###, when I am paying my all bills timely and I am loyal CUSTOMER of Airtel, just because I want to disconnect the connection, Airtel is asking unnecessary payment to harass me.

This is really embarassing for me being a CUSTOMER who was trusting this company for GOOD SERVICEs.

It's my humble request to please check this matter, as I have already paid my outstanding balance and after that instantly i CONTACTed to Airtel CUSTOMER care to disconnect the connection.

Please review this and make clear the amount which is unnecessarily showing.

PFB my details and attaching snapshots for your reference:

Today I received a call from[protected] who introduced himself as a airtel consumer complaint department associate and asked me to install team viewer app then he asked me to process payment and instructed to add my debit card then suggested to not enter OTP which will result payment failure and he assured me that after this instance Airtel will refund my INR 942 and I have to pay this amount again, I didn't believed him so I denied to process this and disconnected the call.

Now I want to know, is this a way airtel works ?
If not, then how can a third party person came to know about this?

Is Airtel working with frauds ?
