Respected Sir/Madam,
We, Bhavna R ,Manisha B and Danisha S, foreign students in University of Mysore, would like to bring to your kind attention some of the problems encountered with the Airtel Company in Mysore. Since the very beginning they have been disappointing us with their poor service and lack of professionalism. We subscribed for a Broadband Internet Connection with the plan of 10 GB (2MBps/256kbps) in August 2012. Throughout, the speed was not as good as promised and we kept facing connectivity problems all the time.
We have shifted to a new place and before that we had applied for cancellation of the Internet Service on 03.04.2013. We were told that the cancellation would be done within 9 days, that is by 11.04.2013 and that the security deposit of Rs 3000 would be refunded to us within 45days. (Reference number for request:[protected].
But to our further disappointment, they kept calling us to ask if the connection was ok and they literally pestered us to keep the connection. In spite of our firm decision to cancel it, they did not effectuate the cancellation at that time and we got one more bill for no reason as we were not even living in that house and therefore did not avail to their service. They even gave the excuse that we asked for reconnection when we had already shifted from there. It would be anyway clear in their data usage record that after the cancellation request that no one used their service.
Furthermore, they kept troubling us with their phone calls and each time we had to say that a request was already filed for cancellation and on each phone call they would file a new one. It was very annoying each time for us to repeat the same story to them. (Further cancellation request numbers: 31351428;[protected]
Moreover, we would like to inform you that the Airtel Company provides different plans for almost the same price. We got to know about this from our friends who were also using Airtel Broadband. For almost similar prices they were getting a much better package with higher speed and better usage allowance. This is why we found their service very unfair and unprofessional.
Eventually, we are still waiting for the refund of our security deposit after deduction of the real pending amount (i.e for the time period we used their services) and we hope to get it as soon as possible. We have already been waiting for so long and that is why we could not resist from filing a complaint here.
We hope that our request will be given due consideration and the amount will be refunded soon. We look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Bhavna R, Manisha B, Danisha S,

Bharti Telecom Services / Airtel Postpaid Connection — Telecom provider not refunding deposit
had a Airtel Post paid mobile service for about 5 years. Because of poor network connectivity I stopped using the services from airtel. Now they are not refunding the deposit which was paid for STD/ISD calling service. I have even given them the copy of the receipt I have for the same.They promised to pay within 45 days, however it has been 4 over months.
