[Resolved]  Airtel Broadband — Airtel refund scam

I inquired for an Airtel broadband connection on September 10th 2009.

Guys from Airel were very good...they called me up and got the proper address, did a feasibility study and said "Two ports are available" . They came to my house and collected all the required details and a cheque for Rs 2247/-. I applied for this connection in my wife's name. Once Cheque was encashed I started to see the real color of Airtel. Hey man they are terrible...they are inhuman...they are extraordinary cheaters...


Once cheque got en cashed, some one from Airtel called me up and told me that Main line has got choked and we will not be able to give broadband connection and you will receive your cheque in a week. Week became month and after consistent fights with customer care, I got a cheque in the name of my wife. I was relieved..... but it stayed like that for only two days since I realized that my wife's name in cheque is incorrect. Her initial was mentioned as "S" instead of "R"....

Again one more saga of getting cheque in correct name started . I called up Airtel customer care and informed about the same problem. They asked me to return cheque in a near by Airtel customer care centre and get the Acknowledgment...you will get corrected cheque in a two or three days.

I have returned the cheque on 15th October, today is 3rd November and I have not received any cheque till date. I have escalated it to next level in customer care... No use...They are not even thinking of returning back my money... They always give a number of person called Ajay, 41115338. This I***t never picks up the phone or it is always engaged...

I went through lot of complaints in net and it seems Airtel is running a scam to loot money from people. A better way to cheat and a better way to make money...
