Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir/maam,
I want say that my landline no. Is [protected], also using broadband with this no. I had complained yesterday for network issue they told me that problem will get resolved till 6 pm, but when i called for same at then they told me that it will be resolved at 11pm. But till now it has been not resolved. They are disappointing us. Now i had called again then they told me again that it will be resolved by 6 pm. Whats going on kindly check it and resolve the problem in 2 hr urjently otherwise i had to take strict action.

I'm using airtel sim for more than 6 years and never faced bad internet speed or call drop's, but from last 1 month the internet speed has gone from bad to worse and their frequent call drops. I did complaint and too more than 5 times, but i get the same response that they are trying to resolve. But i didn't find any change's. Their is no option left for me rather than to port the sim. My complaint no. Cgpsc[protected].

I have been an airtel postpaid customer for over 13 years. A couple of billing cycles ago, i was charged around rs1200 extra. When i contacted customer care n jan 13th - 2018, i was assured the matter will be resolved within 7 days. It did not get resolved, i called up again only to hear that the adjustment has been approved, but till date the issue has not been resolved even after repeated calls to customer care. Now the outgoing calls on my mobile has been barred.

I just spoken with bluddy airtel's customer contact center neither their services are good nor customer care center executive i had my no. Port from aircel to airtel i heard airtel has good services and networks too comparison than other but really i bogged after converting my sim really i have complaint lots of time in airtel customer care as well as in social sites even their technician also visited at my place to checking my network coverage he checked and told me that "there is poor fluctuation in out door and in door as well pls give us 2-3 working day now 1 month going to be finished but yet no improvement in network... Even its ivr procedure is too lengthily if any uneducated customer wants to contact to airtel customer care they do not have any direct way to reach at executive always customer will need to follow their 15 minutes of ivr procedure to talk to c. Executive after follow the ivr some times irv auto responded that you did not choose any option pls press any key however constantly pressed after 2 times of ivr caution call gets auto disconnect.. Many times i had tried to contact with gopal who is ceo of airtel right now but god knows where he is and what he thinks about customer satisfaction... I seems it does't matter that if any customer suffering anyhow since porting my no. I am looking forward to completing 90 days to switching operator finally just 2 day are left... One more surprise that i get today from airtel i called in airtel customer care to deactivation my bro's number because someone teared his phone... I really surprised when i heard executive deactivated my services rather than my bro's no. Now we can assume how pathetic airtel is neither they sits attentively nor they knows how to talk to the customer they always become casual while talking some times rude too but it is our"bite the bullet" that we used to it just because to get solution... If it never changes one day all the user will be realized that somewhere airtel making us fool... Please find attached few pictures of about airtel exploit whereas data connection is oped but still the internet did not work network frequency also too weak... Its usually

Finally would say if any a common man has rights to take action against such kind of organization i requesting to consumer helpline please notice them kindly change such bullying

Thanks & regards

Ported my airtel no and followed your instructions but now both my SIMs are not working. Im a working woman and not having a working SIM is badly impacting my work. Please resolve this issue ASAP. I am a working woman and this is imapcting my work, cannot contact customer care also. Please help asap.

I am an honest airtel user since a decade, but i feel sorry to say that india's largest network is changing to india's worst network. No customer service is provided when the customer needs it the most when compared to 3-4 daily calls to get a new plan, new connection etc etc.
I took 2 postpaid connections which were used by my cousins in 2016 apart from the current no. That i am using and both the nos. Were closed after clearance and every bill was paid without any delay except one last bill for one of the no. As the respective person was planning to close the no.. Both nos. Were closed and we cleared all the bills.
Now after 1 odd year airtel comes back to me saying "please pay a bill of inr 3700/- for one of those nos. To continue services on your current no. And has stopped all outgoing calls on my personal no. Which was used as an alternate no. At the time of registration.
I am seriously facing a hell lot of issues due to my no. Not working as i only have one connection for my personal use. Also for this no. All the bills are paid before the due date every month,
After complaining almost 10 times on the customer care no. I still haven't got any solution to this issue.
I hope these people are well aware of the fact that it's damn hard to function without a working number these days and my calls, internet are barred since friday.
I am seriously loosing my calm now so request the people sitting at airtel to please look at it at the earliest or i would go legal on this.

I was not recharging my airtel dth tv id no- [protected] for about six months, then airtel dth people started calling me, and gave me offer that if i recharge with Rs 996, i will get 1 year of validity, including all the channels which were in my pack. Therefore i recharged with 996 rs. My tv started with all channels which were there in pack, but just after one week all the movie channels disappeared, some news channels disappeared, and even some basic channels disappeared, there is nothing left worth watching in the tv. when i called the customer care and asked them for changing my pack, to the pack which i was promised, they said that it cannot happen now (" how can we show you 230 rs per month pack in just 996 per year"). Then i asked them to change my pack to rs 230 per month and deduct the money from my account which has 996 rs, but they refused to do that also.
Then i asked them to DEACTIVATE my account and REFUND my money, but they refused to do that also, saying that once you recharge your account your money could not be refunded, they said even if you recharge with large amount like 20000 rupees by mistake also, we will even not REFUND that as the money is safe with us in your account.
I am feeling frustrated by the behavior of the airtel people as they have done fraud with me and making fun of my problem.
I WANT MY MONEY BACK OR MY PACK TO BE CHANGED TO WHAT IT WAS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, OTHERWISE I WILL FILE A CASE OF FRAUD AGAINST AIRTEL DIGITAL TV.
I WILL NOT GIVE UP UNTIL MY PROBLEM IS SOLVED.

Dear team,

Hi,

This is Manish Sankar Misra, I have applied for a broadband connection (Kelambakkam, Chennai, Pin -799250) on 02-Feb-2018 . Payment was done and the proofs were submitted on the same date . My payment transaction ID :[protected] and my generated CAF No: 4561157. I was told that I will be getting the connection in 48 hours .

Saraswati was the first person who contacted me (Her Mob No[protected] ) and called me on regular intervals until I did my payment and submitted the documents . I have been Messaging from lasr 2 days and I didnot get single response.

One installation person called me this morning and asked me that He will be coming today at 5:00PM for giving the connection . Later he called again and said that its been cancelled and I need to call and inform airtel to get some other installation guy (Installation guy's no: [protected]).

I have done multiple follow-ups, called the customer service but there was no progress . I am very much disappointed by the service I am getting .

When it came to your business I received more than 5 calls in an hour . Even I was contacted by 2 of your executives, fighting within that who will process my connection . and once the payment is done nobody even cares.
I am sure, this is not the way you want to treat your ciustomers!!

Hoping for a reply .

Regards,
Manish

Earlier I had an old model airtel4g sim(with no adapters-standard size) which I wanted to swap with a new one(with adapters for micro and nano slot), since my phone demanded that. So I went to this retailer and bought the sim for 50 rupees. I was instructed to send an SMS stating "SIM sim number" to 121 through my earlier sim.I got a message which read "reply with 1 to confirm".I did the same and got a reply message stating that the sim card would be activated within 24 hours. I waited for the time being and my earlier SIM was out of network, so I swapped the new sim but it received no signal. I contacted the customer care and they informed that I will have to wait another 4 hours for activation. Again I waited for the time being and after another 20 hours my new sim was out of signal. This time the Customer care instructed me to visit a nearby Airtel store. I did the same. The guy there asked me to show the request message I sent to 121.After seeing the message the guy said that I have messaged the wrong sim no. I messaged the number on the cover in which the sim would come. The guy at the Airtel store obviously didn't believe it, but however he carried out some standard procedures which includes getting my Aadhar number and thumb print and said that the new sim would be activated in 4 hours. He charged 25 rupees for this. Shortly I received a message through the new sim stating "your number is xxxxxxxxxx.Please restart your device". I received a configuration message which I saved. My happiness was short-lived. Suddenly after I chose to save the network settings my new sim was out of signal. It has been 20 hours since then no signal reception yet.I have restarted my phone several times but in vain. Now I know why the newcomers excel in the industry it's because of their service. Worst customer service. All my contacts know only this number which has no signal. I regret buying the new sim. Better not buy thus sim again.

Dear fellow indians,

Please dont open your account with airtel payment bank because it is a complete scam. Here i am telling you why it is a scam.

Couple of days ago i deposited my funds near about 3500rs to pay to a merchant but when i am trying to pay him i always got an error transaction failed. Then i tried to reverse my amount back to where it was debited again i got the same issue i. E. I can't transfer those fund to anywhere.

Then i tried to call customer support but now you cant call to them as well because they have removed their no. From everywhere.

Remember guys i already updated my e-kyc on airtel app but when i reached to airtel store the executive was saying your e-kyc is not approved and as of now we cannot approve your kyc by my end as well, then i asked why they have no answer for that and he continuously forcing me to go some-other airtel store, i wandered why he is pushing me to go somewhere else when he himself cant help me out. He was saying me to use these funds for dth, mobile reacharge else my money will remain in the wallet their is no way to take that money out from airtel wallet.

So guys dont get into this trap. Airtel payment bank is complete a scam, no support, no call back, no issue resolution. Once you put your hard earned money in airtel's wallet you forget to take it back. I lost my money but i dont want you people to lost your money.

These people are looting common man's hard earned money.

Thanks

We just had a new connection installed at our place of airtel vfiber. Internet speed is below the desired speed and connectivity is very poor. The connection cracks at times. It's a new vfiber connection and it doesn't provide the desired speed. The company claims to provide 20mbps speed but it hardly provides 300kbps speed. Experiencing the worst internet speed.

With full confidence in the brand name airtel, i happyly applied for a new airtel prepaid sim connection on 02.02.2018 (Afternoon) at airtel office, sda complex, kasumti, shimla. But to my disappointment, i saw the casual attitude of the office staff towards customer was very annoying. After almost 40 min, they issued the new sim (No. [protected]) and i paid the recharge amount of rs. 230 to activate the sim. They conformed its activation thereon. But by evening the number was not yet activated and we approached the office. They said that there was some server problem and assured us that it will get activated by late evening. But for 3 days the number was not been activated despite our constant followup. Finally i went to the office on 05.02.2018 (Evening) and told them about my issue. There i was shocked to see their response, they were lease bother with my problem and stated give excuses. I got very disappointed with such poor customer service and decided to surrender the number. When i told them to do so, they had no regrets in letting go there customer just like that and very easily returned me rs. 230. So if this is how your customer service is then i must tell you that airtel is just for namesake. It don't have any brand credibility and customer means nothing to you. How one can let go its customer so easily when the fault is that of the company. This was my first ever interface with airtel and this is what i got - a pathetic staff attitude and such poor customer dealing. Totally unsatisfied with airtel service, atleast not expected from a name like airtel. Disappointed. Rishta jodnay say pahley hi tordh diya!!!

Airtel has done fraud with me of rs 5000 i have open a airtel payment bank but they have block my account. Because of kyc i have given all the document sitt they dont unblock my account because of this i am not able to do any transaction from airtel money it is my half salary...
I have talk to there customer care but they still not help me out even customer care person has check that all the document as per there need reached to them still they have not unblock my account..
What i do in this...

I have recharged my dth 2 times recently. The company has taking the same recharge on my main + add on connection while the said add on has been cancelled since last 3 years and i am not getting is recharged since then. I am requesting company officers to adjust the amount taken on add on to my main connection but they are not doing.

I have repeatedly requested company officers to permanently cancel the add on hereinbefore many times but they are not doing.

The company's service is very bad or poor.

Hence this complaint.

Date of incident : 06/02/2018 please note that i have first recharged my airtel prepaid mobile through airtel app with rs 399 for 1 gb/day unlimited calls pack which was deducted from my sbi account (I used net banking). I bought only one recharge data pack but i was charged for two. I have my bank statement attached below. I tried contacting airtel but the customer representatives. I request a refund from the airtel authorities.
Thanking you in an anticipation.
