Airtel — Non Working WiFi Hotspot

Address:New Delhi, Delhi

With deep frustation, I was writing this expecting some response. I purchased Airtel's 4G Wifi hotspot with the MSISDN #[protected] from the Airtel store at Sarojini Nagar (South Square) on 25th July, 2015. I have taken a subscription for 3 months along with the device upfront. The very next day I got a message informing the device had been activated and the same was ready for use. But the hotspot was not getting connected to the backend. Visited the store many a time only to observe cold response from the store personnel every time. No one was willing to resolve the issue. An unskilled support guy at the store gave a suggestion to follow up with device vendor (ZTE here). Another assumed it a problem with the SIM and procured a new one to replace the earlier one. None of these worked. On the other visit, they APPARENTLY raised a ticket in their system and asked me to wait for a couple of days. Nothing happened yet. Nor were they ready to accept back the device in exchange for my money. I was given a contact number (of the store) : +91 [protected]. And it never seemed to work. With such a ruthless personnel operating the stores, it is not possible for a common man to redress for their losses. I would recommend not to go for AIRTEL's services. Note: To the AIRTEL team: I am not a one born with silver spoon to pay someone for no services received. Request you to pay my money back. Sorry that I subscribed to your services, the biggest mistake I ever did.

Dear Sadhu
Its been 4 days since you assured an action. Neither did the service resume nor did I receive any calls from your customer care representatives.

It is just that you guys pay deaf ears to your consumers' concerns.

Why do you sell the devices when you know you guys are not just competent enough to resolve the issues at run time.

And its almost been a month after I bought the device.

AIRTEL is just looting its consumers. KINDLYYYYYY give me way out to get my money back. Not at all interested any more in writing these public threads or emails .
