Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,
I have Airtel Prepaid mobile connection my Phone No. is [protected]. Last one month onwards I have noticed that Airtel is deducting money apart from call charges, which is not acceptable. I have not activated any value added services. I am very disappointed about their services.
So, please grant my complaint for airtel services & take them affective action on it.

Regards,

Vijay

This complaint is on the Airtel Relationship Centre in Alwarpet, TTK Road. I submitted a request for MNP to move from my existing Reliance GSM prepaid to Airtel prepaid. Per the process, I submitted the required documents at the centre on June 16th and was told that I would get a response/SMS from Airtel in a week. 2 weeks passed by and I did not hear back. My number continued to be with Reliance. I called up Reliance call center and spoke to the customer service reps for more than an hour. They could not diagnose the issue, they insisted the error was on Airtel's side and that they had not received any communication from Airtel. I called up Airtel call center, and again spoke to multiple reps and managers for over an hour. They were helpless since the number was not registered in their network/database. They suggested that the best way was to go back to the Airtel center where I had submitted the forms.

So, I took some time off work and stopped by at the Airtel center. This time, they said that the UPC code had expired and that they had to re-submit the request. I provided them with the updated UPC code and continued to wait for a week as they assured me it would be sorted out. This time, I noted down the phone number of the rep, Diwakar. 10 days passed by and still no response. I was furious. I complained to Airtel_presence on twitter and called their Nodal office number too. The reps seemed to be clueless about the MNP process and were not helpful. I continued to call Diwakar. After 3 calls in a single day, he responded saying that there was some error in processing the request. It could only be resolved if I went down to the Airtel office personally in Egmore. This was outrageous and I reasoned with him that I don't have the luxury of time to do that and requested the phone number of a personnel who can help at the Egmore office. He said that following up on the phone will not work and also went onto suggest that I should take permission out of office for few hours and go over to the Egmore office.

I really wish I had recorded the conversation so that Airtel understands the kind of customer service they provide. This was disrespectful behavior and I was taken aback. Pursuing this issue further would only result in the waste of my energy and time, so I did not. But I wanted to highlight it to other consumers so that you can be more cautious while dealing with them.

On 20 Aug 12 i am having about 57.80 rupees in my account and after one hour when i was calling from my phone balance was less about 1.2 rupees only. When i given a call to Customer care they had told me that net charges is being deducted. Although i was having about 22 MB left in my account net balance valid up to 20 Aug12 and after that at 0915 i recharged my account with 98 net pack on20 Aug 12. Kindly look in to the matter .as unwanted charges are being deducted from prepaid account.

I am an old customer of Airtel delhi gsm mobile services,I am very disappoint about their services.

First thing is that when ever i call customer care, there is no satisfaction response always. in last 2 days, i recharged my account balance
50rs of three times and they are deducting my balance without my permission now i have 6 rs balance, they automatically giving service of some other utility plans without prior notice.

so, i want them to return my account balance as soon as possilble, i just want stop any additional services always.
so, please grant my complaint for airtel gsm sevices & take them affective action on it.

your's faithfully

Hi,

I had a broadband connection with number [protected] in Bangalore. On 31-mar-2012 I called airtel customer care and asked them to disconnect my connection as I am relocating. I paid all the pending bill till then. The customer care person assured me they will disconnect in 7 days time.
After 3-4 days one person from airtel called and started brain-washing me to transfer connection to any my friends or relatives. I told him no one is there, ready to take the connection. He told he will get back in 2 days. He never got back. And my connection ramained active even after 7 days. I had already moved out of that house and I did not know the connection is active.
After more than a month Airtel people called me and told my connection is active and I need to pay bill for all the days for which I have not used their service. They conveniently deleted my request to disconnect and kept the connection active. I complained many times to customer care and they did not bother to correct the bill or disconnect my conection. They kept on torturing me by calling and asking to pay the bill that got accumulated over time. Now they are saying they will initiate legal procedure.

This is sheer fraud from AIRTEL. Don't believe this cheaters. When you ask for a new connection they will come and give connection in 1-2 days. They will somehow put you in highest monthly rental scheme to extract your money to the last penny. When you want to escape from their hold they will start slowing down. They want 7 days to deactivate or disconnect a service. They will pester you will calls to keep ur connection or transfer to someone else. And They will will delete your complaint and say you never raised any complaint. Dont go for this fraud company for your broadband or mobile service,

Respected Sir,

I am extremely annoyed due to airtel's frequent fraudlent schemes. To cite a fresh instance i've been charged 40rupees for a unopted service, naming Emotional atyachaar. Uncannily, the service is named true-to-purpose. It isn't for the 1st tym, i'v been constantly harassed with such fraud intentions.
Hoping, you'll resolve the issue. Thanking you, Sir

To Personal attention of top authority for serious action against Airtel responsible authority

Hon sir my mobile no is[protected] at present in Airtel and they again and again reject my portability request under bogus ground and their 2 executive at 20.30 hrs on their 198 on dt 18/08/2012 had disconnected my complaint without any noting information. In fact their net work is not available at my seating place and I do not get my important telephone .Also vodafone has very good tie up with our office and their network is fine. so Airtel is giving me loss and harassment and I therefore demand to arrange suitable charge sheet against their responsible authority as they do not understand seriousness of mobile portability and also they should consider me compensation means adjustment of suffering as Govt has given notification to take action against the portibility rejection of the company. praful a kotecha mobile[protected]

RESPECTED SIR,
I SHOEB R KHANDWAWALA WAS CUSTOMER OF VODAFONE SINCE LAST 10 YEARS MY NUMBER IS [protected] AND NOW CHANGE MY CURRENT NUMBER TO AIRTEL BY NUMBER PORTABILITY.I HAVE CHANGE MY NUMBER BY CONVENCING OF TWO AIRTEL EMPLOYE JAYESH AND KALPESH.NOW MY NUMBER HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED FROM VODAFONE AND AIRTEL HAS NOT ACTIVE MY NUMBER AND I HAVE CALL AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE FROM MY LANDLINE BUT EVERY ONE IS GIVING A NEW CUSTOMER CARE NUMBER FROM LAST NIGHT..I AM CALLING THE TWO AIRTEL EMPLOYE WHICH HAS CONVENCING BUT THEY ARE NOT ATTENDING MY CALL.

My name is Pranav Ghatkar and I have been using mobile services with Airtel (Bhartee Airtel) since last 8 months. I had an outstanding payment for Rs. 2500 as my mobile bill. The communication provider (Airtel) has used my personal data and called my family and friends for this issue. This is a Violation of Data Protection Act.

We all know that the service providers can dig into our account and see our call history but using those contacts is a violation. My family and friends got calls from these guys asking for me. Though they have my current contact number m they preferred to call my family and friends. This is harassment as a customer and also now we cannot believe their services.

Looking forward to the consequences of this case, they can use anyone’s contacts and this could lead to a serious incident. For Ex. If they (Airtel) use contacts of a business person he can loss money and the reputation in Market.

I must say this kind of behavior from the service providers could lead to a very dangerous situation. This is as equal as stealing our personal things.

I as a customer, appeal to get this matter highlighted and takes at a higher levels.

Thank you ,

Pranav Ghatkar
