Dear airtel,
My airtel number [protected] has been suddenly stopped working, it has been dead from today i. E. 19-dec-2017. I am unable to contact airtel customer care also. Please activate my sim again. This number is important to me as it is associated with my all transaction and interactions. I have been using this airtel connection from 5 years. Please take action as soon as possible.
Best regards

    Hi my self yogesh from bangalore, i had 130gb data on dec 1st & by 11th they say that i have consumed 100gb without any downloads, i use it for browsing & games or any online series. I have also registered a complaint more than 2 years back about network issue, so when my network is properly how can i use 100gb in 10 or 12 days. If i call customers support they say that the system is showing i have used 10 or 20gb data per day.

        no incoming calls/messages after porting to airtel

        I was having a terrible experience with my vodafone postpaid network and so i decided to port to airtel prepaid. I got all the processes done and finally my number got ported to airtel. After porting what i realized is that i am able to use the internet and outgoing services but i am not receiving any calls or messages. I tried calling my number using another phone but it says that the number is invalid. I also tried sending texts to my number...

        I am using Airtel Broadband. On 3 occasions someone without my knowledge has uploaded over 100 GB of data from my Airtel broadband account. Chances that I was hacked are very remote and no devices were connected to my router for so long that over 100 GB would get uploaded.

        I escalated the matter but they are not providing any support help or facilitation in investigating.

        I now believe that someone in Airtel broadband has used my connection. Their security is faulty. There's no way to change or set password. It is given by Airtel so their employees know it. There's no MAC authentication so someone can log in from elsewhere.

        Please be careful while availing Airtel broadband services

          Hi, I am Nikhil Tikhe.
          My mobile no.[protected].
          From last 3 days I am trying to send port message to 1900.
          But getting message as "Request could not be processed.Please try after some time".
          I have also paid my outstanding amount, still cant do port.
          Customer care is saying from last 2 days to call after 2 hours everytime.
          They even not taking my complain.
          Is there any other way to port the service?
          Or Airtel needs to resolve my query.

            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.

                My airtel wallet has 592 Rs and is made inactive. I have tried writing emails and called customer care several times, but it has all been fruitless. Moreover I have visited their outlet also but my account was not made active .As a result my balance in account us sitting idle for last 2 years.
                I want my wallet to be made active and interest on 592 for 2 years be given.

                    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.
                                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                                    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.
