Airtel — Poor Service/Poor Connectivity/Bad mobile company to deal with

Hi Nodal Officer,

I'm thoroughly displeased by your response. It means nothing to me as you do not provide a firm date of resolution and have always kept it open ended, as per Airtel non-committal policy.

Anyways, as requested pls. terminate my connections. I do not wish to further deal with Airtel.

Regards,
Deepak

Subject Non-addressal to service requests & complaints

Hi

I have two mobile connections from Airtel and I'm very sorry to inform you that the connectivity as well as service of the Customer Care and other Technical staff has not been very effective.

A few months ago (May-June) and again last few weeks (since early Oct) I have been facing issues of "zero" connectivity / coverage to the mobile network at the place I stay (Aundh, Pune) and inspite of raising repeated complaints, service requests and telephonic calls there has been absolutely no response in solving the problem.

I have also been given false assurances (by 121 staff viz somene called Ram/Pramod) of waiving off the plan charges that I do not see reflecting in my accounts. The Airtel Relationship center at Aundh are not accepting any complaints are seem rude and disgusted when we appraoch them. But they have now assured a resolution date to the problem by 3-Nov-08 and FYI if this does not get resolved I shall have to be forced to inform the media/competition and thereby terminate my 4 year relationship with Airtel.

It is also amusing to note that some complaints/service requests are closed/cancelled without the problem being resolved. This depicts poor governance and lowest priority of the "May We Help You" option in the airtel.in website.

Some excerpts of such instances are as below:

I hope I can receive a response to honor "We Promise a Solution" as you have advertised in todays newspaper.


Warm regards,
Deepak Kadam
