I in spite of many mails and visiting airtel store am unable to recharge by airtel prepaid from my main account balance airtel has not replied to my last two mail. The process of trying to recharge has been going on for the past twenty days or so, this amounts to cheating and harassment. Of the customer as i have a balance of more than rs.3000/in my main account balance and surprisingly there is no provision in their app to recharge with main balance and the self care number given in the mail say invalid input against the relevant option number.

    Hello i had recharged my airtel mobile number with inr 399 and had activated a pack for next 84 days.

    Next using 'phone pe' i had recharged the same number mistakenly of inr 448 and pack for next 82 days.

    I contacted airtel for refund/to credit that to talk time at least as it doesn't make sense to use both same packs by paying double the price.

    Now they refused to refund. And told me that the your money waste. We can't do anything.

          I was out of station when my sim card which is registered on my sister's name got damaged. When i returned home i got it changed from a gallery near me, but to activate it they are saying they need my sister to be present. But my sister is currently in newzealand, it is practically impossible for her to visit the store. I have been suffering severe loss since my number is off. When visited the gallery they are not providing me any alternate solution. L am even ready to convert it to post paid. I visited the head office also there without even listening to my complaint they sent me to the gallery. And the gallery is sending me to the head office. I am really helpless plz help me reactivate my card. I tried reaching the customer service as well but no solution has been received. Plz tell me whom to contact

            Hi,
            We have AIRTEL WI-FI dongle connection number: [protected]. I was trying for almost 4 months to close/suspend the connection. Airtel customer care is not sending any tracking message or e-mail to Registered ID's and follow-up was pathetic. We are paying every month bill without usage and not a problem from our end.

            We are raising as consumer complaint as service side issue than request provided.

                We have been writing an email to Airtel customer care and also spoke to them when they gave a call to understand the issue. We explained the issue and requested to change the email ID due to wrong email id we are not receiving bills on time. We also informed them that the email id on which Airtel are sending bills does not exist.

                Even we have submitted a letter on letter head with all the details required.
                but still are not bothered change the email ID and continuously sending the auto generated mail.
                Can some one help me in resolving this issue.

                  My relationship number is [protected]. I have been paying bill every month but the billing shows there is an unpaid amount and have been charging late fee for that. I have been disputing that amount for last one year. It is unfair practice to charge late fees for disputed amount. Made numerous calls to customer service and they could not resolve it as they cannot figure out where that amount came from. Have provided the payment history for last one year and no response from customer service. Initially they have claimed there was no payment done for jan2019. They agreed that payment was paid twice after i have provided the transaction details. Inspite of resolving their issues my account has not been fixed. Request you to resolve it immediately

                          Without permission switched my rental plan from advance rental to monthly rental and billed me for 2200 inr.

                          I am suppose to pay only 4200 inr for 6 months advance rent.

                          This is why airtel monopoly must end and companies like reliance should take over.

                          Airtel is still in the same habit of exploiting its customers. And causing every inch of harassment, until people starts following the instructions.

                          Please solved my problem
                          I have recharged my mobile (No. [protected]) about 3 hours' ago.
                          Yet I am getting the message "Your outgoing services have been stopped due to lack of balance". The recharge amount is Rs. 129/-.
                          This has happened several times before. Can I take legal action against the company?
                          Please check this [protected] airtel prepaid number, I rechare 598 rs plan online and get recharge sms on mobile but service not start .

                            I have 2 airtel's sim but one of those sim is not working since 4 days i contacted to airtel's so-called customer care services via calls & emails too but i don't get any specific and accurate answer regarding my issue. They are continuously tolding me that your "sim card is gone old upgrade it to 4g network from any airtel's store or any of the retailer without any charges it means absolutely free" but when i went to an airtel's store or to any retailer all are asking for ₹100 to upgrade my airtel sim card to 4g network. But still the airtel is still avoiding my issues.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              I have ordered fast tag id through airtel app, i received message on 6 dec 2019 my fast tag id shipped. Till now when i check through airtel thanks app it is still showing shipped due to this i am facing issue at toll plaza.
                              This is very frustrating as my friends order fastag from other service providers like paytm and they got there fastag in 7 days.

                              Whenever i check the customer care executive always busy the call get disconnected.

                              My airtel number is [protected].
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                              I have charged my no with RS : 79 for international roaming for Nepal. But, neither I am getting any call or I am able to call anyone. Either, resolve it immediately or return my money.
                              I have ordered the Fastag from Airtel and go the product on 17 Dec'2019 and today is 7 Jan'2020 but in Airtel Bank app it is still showing shipped because of this I'm not able toh activate it and DTDC courier service mentioned it delivered in their tracking system.

                              I have also attached the screeen shot. Such a pathetic service by Airtel and If I trying to call customer support call was disconnect by own.

                              I have recieved fastag from airtel on 22nd jan 21. But still airtel app shows it is in shipping. So, I am unable activate the fastag and not able to use the same. I try to contact on the number provided but it is autoanswering call and no solution is provided there. Even, I can not contact customer representative for the same. Please resolve my problem.
                              Fast fast ek abhi tak receive nahin hua hai kripya karke usko receive Karen
                              I too have the same issue applied for fastag in the month of DEC 2020, received after one month in JAN 2021 and in the month of MAR 2021 the Airtel App shows my fastag as not delivered. I am not able to topup. when i went to the toll the tag did not work and they charged double the toll fare. Please who ever is thinking to buy fastag from Airtel i recommend not to buy from Airtel, its better you buy from banks. At least we can go and complain about it. Airtel has 400 number helpdesk which is useless and does not support fastag.

                                  I applied for hdfc fastag online with payment of rs.500, also uploaded the necessary supporting documents and vehicle registration certificate.
                                  After that i received customer id & wallet id on 24/11/2019 through sms and email. Even my wallet was recharged for rs.300/-. But still i haven't received fast tag sticker.

                                        Hie i am leena from mumbai holding airtel network (No. [protected]) since years, its been 5 days the sim has suddenly stopped working i cant receive calls or make calls, cant even dial customer care no.

                                        I had recharged one week ago, my data pack is literally getting wasted. Keeping aside this it is important to have network at least!!
                                        Kindly look into the matter asap and suggest solution!
                                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
