Complaint Against Airtel DTH for disservice , Harrasment and Illegal Deduction


I have installed Airtel DTH Consumer ID [protected]. As the DTH was not working I lodged a complaint at [protected] on 10 or 11 Jan ,2011. A Boy came the nest day and tried to set it right and told that temporarily he has set it right but in the evening he will set it right permsanently..He gave mobile no( [protected] ) saying that it was chandigarh office no of Airtel DTH. but within 2-3 minutes the tv stopped working and telephoned him. He told me that now he has an urgent complaint and will come with his serior in the evening to set it right. He did not turn up that day. Next day I again telephoned him and again he told that he was away to Zirakhpur and will defionitely come to my home in the evening. Later in the evening as he did not turn up , I tried to contact him again but the phone was off. For the next 2-3 days I was out of station. On comming back I again telephoned him and this time again he promissed to do the needful after attending the complaint in hand already but He never came to attend to my complaint. I sensed that he was bluffing and I got the TV set right off my own from someone else. Per chance the tv again gave problem after this,. This time again I telephoned him and he told that he was not able to come as he is only one person to attend so many complaints and as I will have to pay Rs 100, it will be better that I get it set right off my own from some other person. I did the same.Today i.e 6-2-11morning again the DTH was not working and I this time lodged complaint at [protected].In the ecening the same boy came and I made him talk to the operator on [protected] and there he admitted that he did not resolve the problem till date as he was not allotted the area in which my house falls.It was on spl request of the company only that he has come.I was surprised to check my account that a sum of Rs. 100/ was deducted from my account for no service at all rather for disservice ans harrasment caused to me and my family by Airtel DTH as my complaint was never resolved. I asked as why this deduction I was told that this is for the visit of their mechanic, I asked that It should not be for the visit but only for service if the company or its representative renders in my case as there is no service rendered rather I was subjected to hassasment , The receiver on[protected] told me to do what ever I wnted to telling that everytime they will register a complaint they will deduct Rs 100 even if they solve it or not.It is very unfare and attracts attention for nfare serce act.

This is Suresh from kerala. My airtel dth customer id is [protected]. I have paid 3305 rupees through the ivrs for a new connection on friday ie 4th feb. They told me that they will get it installed within 1 day and when i called them back after a day they told me it will be solved in 72 hours.. I dont know whats happening, Afther 3 days still they say they will do it in 24 hours.. now its 5th day and still no one hasnt come.. Two of you customer care executives mr.Kiran and Mr.Roshan.. They are not even ready to give me a complaint number.. Customer care people called me a 1000 times till i have paid . then no response at all.. What the hell is this? .. I would say your customer care sucks and most of them speak only in hindi.. Grow up..

Dear Representative from Airtel Dth

It is your false claim that my complaint has been redressed. Please donot misguide the others . You lack in service quality and cheat customers by charging rent even when you fail to provide connectivity. If anyone complain you illegally deduct money also and do not provide any serv ice.
If my complaint is not resolved within one week from today, I will be constrained to file suit / complaint in the consumer forum chandigarh office .
