Airtel Broadband — Billing and Shifting

I had shifted my residential premises and requested for connection to be relocated. Airtel did honour that in a few days time after receiving all documentatins. Unfortunately since 6 months i had been trying to get the address changed so that i can receive bills on time and nothing happend. I escalated to their escalation dept., but everytime it was a blanket promise that the bills will reach the same day and apologies... frustrated i disconnected. On top of this after disconnection, i got the bills and the courier representative was showing faces to my family which is the most irritating part. If companies cannot take care basic address update i wonder how they will handle technical problems!!!! God Bless Airtel!!

Airtel — Unnecessary hassle

I had replaced an Airtel sim in early April as i had lost the previous one. From the time i bought the sim it frequently displayed "Waiting for sim update" this was a big nuisance as i had to restart the phone evertime this happened otherwise it would not work.
I called the customer care and told them several times, but every time they said the fault was in my mobile. But i checked it out and found that the problem was with the sim. So i directly went to the airtel office. There they r teling me that if replace my sim all would be fine.
I said ok.
They tell me i had to pay for it. Is'nt that mad?? Why should i pay for their fault?? I don't know wat to do but this is atrocious...

Airtel Broadband — Arbitrary/Illegal termination of services

dear air,
I have been using Airtel boradband services and my landline phone number for the same was[protected].
The company has a history of wrong billing and i too sufferred from it. To begin with, i was using Rs. 555 plan and i asked for the change of plan to Rs. 250 plan on 21st January but i was billed as per the earlier plan only for the next three months i.e.February, March and April and when i objected to it some waver was offerred to me and my phone line was reconnected in the month of may. However, after paying the bill well in time for the month of May, my services were terminated on 30th may without giving me any reason.
when i called up the customer care on 3rd July (Reference number[protected], the person told me that your line is dead and we will get it checked by tomorrow. We waited till 6th July but no one turned up and then when we called up again (reference request number[protected], they told me that it will be corrected by 7th July. The mental agony continued and when i called up again on 7th, after speaking to them for 35 minutes and after transferring my call from one department to another no one took the accountability and finally said that my number is redlisted and that it has been permanently disconnected. When i asked the reason for the same, i was told i was given a number[protected]Mr. Anant Jain) and asked to speak to him. He too failed to explain why the services were terminated and went on to ask me to apply for re-connection. When i said that how can you terminate my services for no rhyme or reason, he said he knows nothing more about it.
Can a company just terminate my services for no fault of mine and without assigning any reason? I am shocked and disappointed and want a legal action on the issue

Airtel Broadband — Register compliant over phone

The online phone system asks you to enter all customer details (landline phone number) and the call center personal ask you for the same information again. When I mentioned that I had already entered this information, they mentioned that it is not available for them.

It's so counter intuitive to harass the consumer by asking for this information in the first place.
Whoever is responsible for this system, should definitely be ashamed of building such a lousy system.

Frustrated consumer :(

Sub: Broadband internet connection. And revision of bill period for every month
Writing the correct address of customer in the bill.
Ref: Account No: 14959252 and Billno[protected] dt. 6th July, 2009

The Airtel Broadband internet connection at my residence at Thiruvanmiyure, Chennai-41 was installed commissioned and activated on[protected].by Mr.SARAVANAN of M/s Airtel. I have discussed with Mr THAJINAMOORTHY of your booking of Airtel internet connection officer and MR. GODWIN & MADAM SHEELA of your Billing department for the billing date and period of billing of every month to suit my central government office procedure to avail reimbursement facility for my grade officer. They have agreed to give the I bill which starts with date 30-6-09 or 1-7-09 and covers the period upto 25-7-09. so that the next consequent bills for every month will come under the regular cycle of 26th of every month to 25th of every consequent month. For example II bill cover the period from 26-7-09 to25-8-09.This will suit your regular your bill period which is in your conventional practice. A letter regarding this has been handed over to Mr SARAVANAN to submit the same to Mr. GODWIN & madam SHEELA Mr THAJINAMOORTHY.
However, I have received the I bill dt 6th July 2009 for the period from 5-6-2009 to 4-7-2009 which is not suitable for me and I can not pay for the same. I won’t pay for the period before the date of activation of your broadband internet connection.
Hence please change your bill period for I bill dt 6-7-2009 and future consecutive bills for the period from 26th of every month to 25th of every consequent month.
Kindly send the bill to my correct address: R.Thiagu,
H43/G2, Thendral Apartment,
Thiruvalluvar Nagar,
Thiruvanmiyur, Chennai-41

Thanking you,

Airtel Broadband — Shifting of Connection not Fulfilled Despite Multiple Requests

I shifted my residence on the 1st of June, 2009 and promptly called up Airtel Broadband services to request my connection (phone no.[protected] to be shifted to my new residence. Both I and my wife are working, and hence, unavailable during office hours on weekdays. For a brief period of time, particularly the first and the second week of registering my request, I regularly received calls from the designated technicians asking me to provide him with a time when they could come and fix up my telephone and broadband connection. I fixed up a time for 4 consecutive weekends with the technicians. The technicians, however, failed to turn up on any of the scheduled dates and times and reported that the request has been fulfilled.

The details of the two technicians involved in this are provided below:
Yogesh: [protected]
Tarachand: [protected]

These two technicians regularly called me up for a month fixing up some time and they would never turn up. They would then call me up the next day to inform me that the landline and broadband connections were fixed. After this happened a few times, I received a bill for the period when my phone and broadband connection were not in use.

The problem has still not been resolved and I am still waiting for Airtel to take action against my request.

I would really appreciate if someone could take up the matter with Airtel and take note of the unprofessional behavior of their technicians. I would also really appreciate if strict action is taken against the technicians, Yogesh and Tarachand.
On Saturday the 11th of July 09 one executive Mr. Srinivas executive came to my place at DDA Flats Munirka New Delhi as I needed broadband connection urgetntly because my son who is in Chandigarh in Infosys come and he needs the net. This I had told the executive he promised that the broadband will be installed positively by 14th of July 09. Today is 18th of July 09 nobody has informed me as to what the problem is why broadband is not installed I had called your customer care No. and had talked to Mr. Shohbhit at Okhla no. and he told that it will be installed soon. Than I took Mr. Jatin on 41614777 at nodal office he said broadband will be installed soon. He will revert back to me and give a feedback than I called Mr. Bharat in Okhla office 44441111 and lastly I talked to Mr Deepak Kumar on [protected] he also promised to do the needful. Till date I have to receive a feedback from Airtel. Sucah a horrible, worst, garbage and rotten service from Airtel. If such big bosses cannot tell or detect the problem than only god can save Airtel not a human being. Such a horrible service I have not seen from any service provider even not from the LCO, MTNL or BSNL. May god help Airtel . Chander Bhushan Mob: [protected]

Airtel Broadband — Payment done but no connection setup.

Sir,
I had applied a airtel broadband connection on 4th june, for which an executive came on 5th june and took Rs 500 from us and gave us the form and receipt for the same. But after 7 days when nobody turned up for the setup of the connection i called the respective executive Mr. Rameshwar who now said that the connection will not be given due to some connection problem in that area. So i asked for the refund for the same, but till date i am just calling them again and again but nobody is helping me out...
plz help me in the context...
thank you

I feel mentally and monetarily harassed by them.kinldy help me please.

I had taken an postpaid connection after few month I cleared all my dews, and they said that u will get your deposit refund within 45 days now it more than 2 month yet i din't received any refund from them when I talk to there executive they are not willing to refund the amount. I can only say about them that AIRTEL is just cheating to customer and there executive are good for nothing just embarrassing customer. Why the hell they had open customer care i din't get it. when ever we go at customer care to resolve any thing nothing is going to happen over there.

There should me an legal action taken for such Company (AIRTEL)
