Address: Bangalore, Karnataka, 560066

Hi,
I called customer support and disconnected airtel broadband two months back. They said it is all done. One week back i got a call saying, i have got a new bill for the last two months.

I requested to cancel bill and close the account. Girl wont close the account and scared me saying: i will escalate to senior. I do not know what else to do.

HI,
I called customer support and disconnected my connection two and half month back. One week back I got a call from your company agent stating new bill is generated. I do not know what to do. The customer support confirmed to me on that day, that the connection is disconnected. now your agent says I have to pay 2800rs. I do not have that kind of cash.

please do something from your end.

Dear Digish,
Greetings from airtel!
This is reference to your email regarding cancellation and billing related for your airtel fixedline number.
I am unable to process your request since your airtel landline number along with the STD Code is not mentioned in your email.
Please write to us with your land line number along with the STD code or DSL ID in the subject line.
Warm Regards,
Pabitrakumar Sahu

beware of Airtel and official sequence of things you will end up facing. it is not a broadband. It is like you take a service from a gaint company which has long processes behind every step. As a customer It is your job to dog around and get things done. no simple steps. log in to a website cancel it off.

please make sure, if you ever take Airtel. when you request to customer care to cancel. ask them to send email confirmation. this liars will tell anything to take your hard earned money.
