Worst speed in airtel
Not even getting 1mbs
Even when i'm in 1st floor
Even with volte
Only at midnight getting the speed, what's the use of it when people at sleeping.
Not even open chorme to make a complaint...
I got volte just one month back. But what's the use no use if it.
I have 200gb every month carry forward. Without using
Call has no problem
Even in volte video call is not working

They give only better network services only at particular areas.

Hoping my escalation will help sort the issue out:

To be straight to the point, i have been using airtel post paid mobile number for couple of years (9+ years). I had amended the billing date, when i choose my billing plan to the start of the month for claims from my company and all was fine till november 2018.

1. My billing cycle was changed in dec 2018 without any intimation to me (From 4th of every month to...

Dear sir,

I had taken an international package worth inr 6799 plus taxes for a trip to south africa and namibia for my trip to these two countries in africa. I had spoken to an executive who assured me that both these countries fall under zone d and is covered under this package for a validity of 30 days. I was in south africa for 2-3 days and in transit but most of my travels were in namibia. Upon this, the executive who activated my package assured me that both these countries are covered under this (Proof of which is very simple to obtain - from the voice recording of this call made around 25-28th march 2019). I asked him at least ten times and he confirmed it to me. Ten days into my travel, i receive a bill of 20, 000 plus on 10th of april via sms. As the network was poor, i couldn't go to my emails and check the detailed bill. I called up airtel from the jungles of africa with great difficulty and after holding on for 30 minutes, i was told that the package wasn't activated and they will look into it and revert back to me. They said i will receive a call within 24 hours. At this time i was clearly told that due to some technical issue the package hadn't been activated and they will rectify the same at the earliest. After 24 hours i called them again and this time i spoke to another supervisor who informed me that namibia was not covered under the package and the executive who gave me the package had misinformed me. He also told me that if you use your phone now i will have to pay complete charges and hence was asked not to use this phone at all. I told this supervisor that it is not my problem if i was given wrong information and all you need to do is listen to the voice recording and reverse this bill as i am not going to pay this due to your fault. He agreed and asked me to give them 72 hours to escalate this and get a complete reversal of this. After 72 hours there was no action taken and no call received from them. I called them again from africa and again after holding for 30 minutes or so, i was told that we apologize and we will get back to you. Till i returned back to india on the 29th april 2019, i still hadn't heard from any of these senior supervisors, namely, deepak and sonu and despite them agreeing to their faults and their fake promises to escalate this case and do a complete reversal of this bill, till date i haven't received any information from them. Upon landing, i immediately called airtel again to ask what had happened to my dispute, to which i was told that your complaint was closed as no error from our side was found. This was neither communicated to me via sms, phone or email. I patiently spoke to yet another senior supervisor, jyoti on 29th april at 9:21 am and yet again explained the whole case for the fifth time. Again yet another complaint was registered under the reference number[protected]. (The previous unresolved complaints were[protected] and[protected] this supervisor told me to go ahead and file a legal complaint if i wanted to but assured me that she will call back within 24 hours. It is been more than 24 hours and more than 19 days since my first complaint. Because of them, i was stuck in the jungles unable to use the phone or contact my family for the entire duration of the holiday as i was in the jungles and had no access to a city or a local number. This, despite several calls and registered complaints and a simple voice recording to be checked from their end that how the executive misinformed me and therefore this case is erroneous and should be reversed, airtel has not taken any steps to resolve this. Instead, am getting threatening messages from airtel to pay the bill immediately else my phone will be disconnected. I write to you with great faith as the only step left to me post this will be to file a legal case against them for harassment and damages. Thank you for your time. I hope by reaching out to you i will be able to get a satisfactory resolution to this case. They should not be harassing their consumers to such an extent.

Warm regards,

Archna singh

Dear sir/madam
On 7 may 2018 airtel dth consumer executive called me on my mobile and said you got an offer for 6 months and 12 months plan. That time i asked her how much amount i have to pay for 12 months and how many channels shows in this offer, she told me that your existing package will continue in this amount which is 1349/- and send a message as "dear customer recharge karan apne airtel box 1349/- se or paye pure 12 months ki validity on customer id". I recharged with this amount but i am unable to see that channels which i saw earlier. So this is a cheating behavior. Please provide that channels which i saw earlier or refund my amount. My customer id is -[protected]. Please call me on [protected] for regarding the complaints.
Thanks

I am a airtel customer since 2001 ([protected]) recently i have noticed that airtel is deduting balance from my prepaid number 50ps on account of data usage. This is happening with me acutally turning on mobile data on my phone this has been happening for some time earlier the deduction were lesser but now it appears to happen more frequently 3 -4 times a day. I tried calling the 1925 number and deactivate data services however even after deactivating i can still see balance getting deducted. I had called customer support for this issue but they said that it was me who was activating mobile data. Case reference number:cbdmo[protected] i have a jio connection for data internet on a hotspot and my phone connects to the jio hotspot over wireless why on earth would i use airtels mobile data with such a configuration.
If this continues there is no point in me recharging again with airtel as i will only endup loosing all the money coz airtel will eventually deduct the complete balance. I would rather port out to a different service provider like jio.

Dear AIRTEL,

When ever I try to call someone the call
gets connected to some unknown person. In the same way when my friends try to call me they get connected to another person. I am facing this problem of cross connection from the past one week.

Kindly solve the problem else I would ha e to change the network!!!

My telephone no. [protected]. I have paid rs.399 for 84 days payment. Two times amount has been deducted payment receipt no. Are[protected] and[protected] on 3/5/19.
By default it has been paid twice from the bank of baroda internet account. I request to solve the issue and revert back to me as early as possible

I request to refund rs.399/ to the same bank of baroda account sinc it is double payment by default.

I had changed my plan online to 649 monthly rental on my number [protected] where we can have one add on number free for lifetime. I tried to add my alternate number [protected] but was unable to do it online, so i called the customer service spoke to the rep and was told that they will add the add on number. I had gone out of mumbai for 2 months and when i came back i was shocked to see that the number was not added and i was billed seperately for both the numbers inspite of having the 649 plan where we get a number added for free. I have been talking to the customer service and no one is even willing to understand the situation.
I want the bill for the add on mumber waived as i am already paying a higher rental of 649 on the primary number for add on services

Airtel owes me 800+ which was a balance in an addon prepaid

I converted prepaid my main number from prepaid to postpaid at the airtel office in jan 2019 on cbi road, bangalore, karnataka for the 649 family package. I received the first bill in feb. Then in march, i upgraded the package to 799 at the airtel office on

1/97, ground floor, 6th cross, r. T. Nagar main road, bangalore, rt nagar, bangalore, karnataka 560032

I upgraded to be able to addon two existing prepaid numbers in my name to the main number. There was a balance of 800+ in one of the prepaid sim. Before i upgraded i had repeatedly asked the person who attended to me pragna if the balance would be transferred to the main account and she assured me that it would.in fact she said that the march bill would be the balance after deducting the balance

When i received the march bill, to my surprise and shock, the balance was not reflected. So i personally went back to the airtel office at rt nagar, and the manager/supervisor navin attended to me. He told me that he has sent out an email. I specifically asked him if i have to make a payment first and he said it was not required. He said this would get sorted out in a couple of days. This was around april 9/10/11. To my irritation after a couple of days, my number was blocked. So i personally went back to the airtel office at rt nagar. The manager/supervisor again attended to me. He got my number unblocked and he again reassured me that the matter would be sorted out in a couple of days. He even gave me his mobile number incase of problems.

I even sent him a sms on april 17th letting him know that matter has not been solved.

When i didn't get a response, i even tried calling him but he did not pick up the phone.

Last week i received a call from the collection department and i repeated the above incidents. She put me on to her supervisor and he again assured me that this would get sorted out in 48 hours. He also assured me that the late payment fee would be waived. Again nothing was done.

I got another call from the collection department and she asked me to go to an airtel office. So i went to the cbi road branch, bangalore, karnataka.
They asked me to send an email to the nodal officer as they could not do anything and they assured me that this matter would be resolved in 48 hours.

48 hours have passed and long gone...

All i'm hearing is that the matter will be resolved in 48 hours. Quite a few 48 hours have come and gone.

It's a pity that this is happening. I've had the main znumber for over 10 years as a prepaid with absolutely no issue.

Worse still i've been charged a late payment fee in the subsequent fee through no fault of mine. If the 880 which was due to me had been deposited to my airtel account, i would have a balance being carried forward to the next month.

Shouldn't i get a compensation instead of a late payment as there excess???

Relay of programs have been stopped a few days ago. Airtel customer care executive has ignored this issue in spite of contacting with him. Airtel has a group of careless staffs who is making the job of entertainment a hell of money pilferage and burglary in the backdrop of its Namo Channel to get the favor of the Government. Countless people has fallen prey to this stupidity. A attachment is being uploaded to reveal this fact. This company seems to be fraught with careless people. Government shouldn't promote such oppressive organizations.

I have received my phone after repair on 28 april 2019 and when i opened it there was no s pen/stylus in phone then i have registered a complaint on 121 on 28 april 2019 at 12:44 pm regarding my airtel secure claim and this is my complaint no.[protected].

At 4 april 2019 i have received a call from airtel secure department name is manager sharad and he has informed me that airtel secure is going to bear the charger of my s pen/stylus of my phone as my complaint that i have registered on 28 april was that i have received my repaired phone back on 28 april but the s pen/stylus was missing from my phone so regarding this i have registered my complaint.

But now manager sharad had closed my complaint though i havent received the payment of my missing stylus of phone as manager sharad informed me that they are going to bear the charges of that stylus. Manager sharad didnt tell how they will bear the charges and when they are going to bear the charges he havent given me any time line and closed my complaine.

Till today i havent received the charges of my stylus

So i request you kindly register a complaint regarding this and as you have said in my previous complain on 28 april that you are going to bear the charges so kindly tell me the time when you will refund the amount and how u will compensate me.

Hope you will take it on your priority concern as already more than 1 weak is over of my last complaint registered but i havent got any resolution till now in between i have made several call and emails but no proper response or no resolution is provided.

Kindly refund the charges of my s pen/stylus in my airtel payments bank so that i can use that money to buy a new stylus for my phone.

I am using airtel from last two months and the quality of network is very low in my area. Despite of several calls to customer care the only solution they provided was "you need to go out of your home to enjoy our uninterrupted network". Thanks for this third class network coverage. "we build a tower every our" is what you say, isn't it? I guess you should build two or more towers every hour with respect to what you have. Totally disappointed by your service.

I purchased a airtel prepaid sim in the month of march'19. Since than 4g/3g signals are too weak, in house as well as outside. I seldom am able to use internet. I made complaint at local level with no avail. They said, possibly my handset is old (Samsung s4/2015). So i purchased new handset vivo v11 spending 24000/-.
But no change in signal status. Later on i also sent mail to airtel. They replied that we are working on it. But still situation is same. I wish to change the service provider. Can you suggest?

Please release the out going and incoming call for below mentioned mobile numbers immediately already we paid bill amount of rs.6372/- which is out standing. Cheque is submitted rs.13780/- dated 29/3/2019 cheque no. 076251.

I have just portable number in to airtel postpaid. And i am not able to use internet from yesterday morning. When i try to call on 121 and 198 and press 9 to talk customer care executive person then automatically call get cut. I have tried to call on 12118 they have raised service tickets, reference number :[protected] and[protected] respectively. And both are closed now, but still i am not able to access internet.

Dear sir, this is dr anil kumar p, i lost my mobile so i blocked my airtel mobile number, so i visited nearest customer care for sim replacement/duplicate sim, they asked me to pay 150/- which is unfair, i said customer care said 25/-, they refused to listen, asked to go to mahbubnagar/hyderabad which is 20/100 km respectively. I request stop/cancel his license for cheating the person. vendor number [protected], refused to share his name....

I just received a fraud call and he has my complaint details. He said that he want my debit card details to verify my transaction and revert the action of last recharge. But smartly i won't give him all these details because i knw airtel is not responsible for refund and they never ask for card details they already have all details.

And the calling no. Is : [protected]
