I used to use the Postpaid Number but then i changed my mind a few days back and migrated to prepaid.
Then I wanted to activate the Black berry services
SO the procedure was to SMS airtelbb to 121 and i did it .....a reply came and had plans in it.....I chose my plan and send it back.......then again a reply came and said that if you want to activate then SMS BIS <model number of phone> to 121 ..... as i am using 8900 so i sent BIS 8900 and in reply they said that we cannot proceed.....if you are a new prepaid customer then wait for 24 hours after activation.......its been 3 days and still same msg is coming up........... I can't even call the data service helpline (7070)
they say that " this service is not available for my number"

i called 121 so many times they say tht we cant help u and u have to 7070
i said its not working.......

In final words.......I am tired of doing this.......Please help

Respected Sir/Madam,

I have a Airtel Prepaid Card which was converted from a Post Paid card to Prepaid Connection. As it was told to me by the Airtel customer agents that if you are going abroad you should convert in to prepaid so that you can keep that number activated (Mobile Number [protected]) and still I am staying in London, but its been more than a month my Airtel card is not working even though I used to recharge it frequently. But I never used that number from UK as I had kept this number to just receive messages from my close ones in India. When I spoke to the customer service agents they told me that this number is permanently de-activated because of non usage. So I just want to complain against the company. I don't understand how can they permanently de-activate my number without informing me. Also when I spoke to Mr Sudharshan (Nadal Officer of Maharashtra and Goa Airtel department), he told me that this number is now permanently de- activated and will be available for new customers after few days. Therefore I asked him to book the number in my name so that I can get the same number back. But he refused to do so. In that case the company is being unjust to me just because they want to sell this number keeping in my mind their own benefits (As it is a platinum number)

Waiting for prompt reply and help from your side.

Thanking You.

I am an Airtel user.
My number is [protected]
Airtel company cheats its customers like me by wrong deductions & also its the most worst company in the nation which provides ADULT CONTENT free of cost without permission from customer.

& also when I complained for the same to complain number 198; my number has been blocked by the Airtel company; now i can't talk to 198.

So this is the strategy of Airtel for their cheap profit; first deduct any wrong charges & then block the number for complain 198 so customer has to call to 121 & he will be charged with 50 paisa / 3 minute.

According to India's laws it is unethical.

Also it is offense to send vulgar & Adult sms to anyone.

For reference I have saved few of them

At present I am writing one of them also which i received today

This is actually Mrs.Bharati's (owner of Airtel) fortune that I do not have sufficient time to submit this complain as JANHEET in the court.

First of all give my wrongly deducted 6.20 rupees back & release my number for 198.

To whomsoever it may concern,

I wish to bring to your notice that our Airtel broadband connection (Number:[protected] has made ours lives miserable.
Despite paying the monthly bills regularly, what we are being offered in return is pathetic bandwidth, unflattering net speed, and misery unlimited.
Of late, the internet connectivity simply dies off without any reason, and for days at end we're taken off the grid.
Adding insult to injury, Airtel technicians refuse to show up and attend to the issue, and don't answer our calls too.

We, as professionals in the corporate world, understand the significance of after-sales service and customer care... probably the folks at Airtel do not.
I demand this issue (complaint #[protected] to be escalated and taken care of immediately.
If the said problems are not rectified at the earliest, I swear that I'll be dragging these to the Consumer Court.

Hello,
Res Sir,
this is my second complaint but still i am facing the same problem
I have been very harassing by the Airtel company. i am using airtel sim card in my mobile instrument and till at the moment i have facing lots of financial losses by Airtel, it cheated a lot to me.
Airtel company sent me a different kind of messages such as downloading 20 20 cricket, choper rescue, picture post etc. and debited a lots of rupees from my account balance. when i complained to the CORE center, it refund me but it is always doing that kind of things to me daily. and i am not able to complained regularly. what can i do for complete ever solution please do something because recently the airtel company has debited a 13 rupees from my account and sent me a message of downing 20 20 cricket without any downloading by me and my phone. i called to the customer care center but they didn't give me a good reply and not give me a refund. i called to the customer care center of airtel on 2/12/2010 also and tell them that if it will be again i will complained you a double charge for that but they are not replying well they are very rood. if i have no balance in my mobile there is no problem but when i recharged my balance the company is cheated me a lot by these kind of ways. please give me a justice and guarantee from the company to not any harassment in future and refund of rupees 1000

MY NUMBER [protected] HAS SUDDENLY HELLOTUNES ACTIVATED FEW DAYS BACK.

THIS IS FRAUD !!

AIRTEL HAS DONE THIS DELIBERATELY AND DEDUCTED CHARGES WITHOUT SEEKING MY PERMISSION OR KNOWLEDGE.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I would like to draw your kind attention to the following:

A message from[protected] came to my mobile on 29/11/10 and the contents were furnished below:

Thank you for subscription to Airtel Blog(Bachchan). You have been charged Rs. 10 for 30 days. To unsubscribe, SMS UNSUB Pooja G to 52000.

I have not subscribed of my own. The matter was taken-up with your customer care. They had refunded the amount of Rs. 10/- and assured me that this will not happen in future.

To my utter surprise I received the same message to my mobile on 01/12/2010. when enquired to customer care, I have been told that they will deactivate subscription but money not refundable.

May I know why this is happening repeatedly while I have not opted at all? Kindly take up the issue seriously with the concerned authority to avoid unnecessary harassment to your customer.

If money didn't refund, we have to change mobile service.

Thank you,

Manjunath

Need clarification:

I asked the duplicate SIMCARD for one of your executive Mr. Panneer[protected] , who is sitting in our office branch ( CTS – Pallikaranai ) date ( 26-Nov-2010). He replied like you have to go any nearest show room with your id proof and collect your duplicate SIMCARD, then I went to ASSCENDAS (Near to Tidel Park) Showroom and collect my SIMCARD on the same day.

While taking the New connection your executives are working very Admirable. but any issue/complaints we will come to your showroom. Then What would be the purpose that executive sitting in our office. If you say New connection and Marketing purpose then I would not agree. Please I want the clear clarification because I this time consuming issue.

Please take this as a serious complaint.

Dear Sir/ Madam

Now after two year I am getting a service message that again I have to submit the documents. I write to Nodal Officer of Airtel, She revert a mail saying (complain no[protected] in case of non receipt of documents, the Outgoing and Incoming services will be blocked in 3 days. Further, the number will be temporarily deactivated within 3 days; from the day number has been blocked. The problem is I live in a village there is no Airtel store and the Owner of the outlets don't want to take our document.the nearest Airtel store (Siliguri) is near about 120km away of my home, so its not possible to submit documents again, other hand the nodal officer saying the service will be stopped, so please look in this..

@airtel
hi. my name is salman...my i'm a old customer o[censored]..before i was a happy customer. my old number is[protected]
i'm using airtel landline and broadband from past 8 years.i forced many of my friends to shift to airtel ..around 7-8 friends ditch BSNL for airtel broadband..
recently i happened to shift my residence from double road to Begur road.
i placed a request 2 months prior to shifting about feasibility. with in 3 days i was confirmed by airtel customer care that airtel network is available in Begur road..
while shifting my residence i placed a request to airtel to shift landline to Begur road residence. they took the request after 10 days they said ports are full so they won't be able to give me the connection.
As we were using airtel from past 8 years my dad used this number as office number too and printed on our finished products .which we manufacture .this number is with all our customers , relatives and family friends ..
now we facing serious problem as they took cancellation request for my number else i should pay monthly rentals every month without using the service. I got an idea and placed a request for getting a new connection from airtel landline..
with in 4 working days i got landline at home..
what is this ..don't u think its so bad . they were unable to shift my connection because o[censored]navailability of ports ..but when it comes to new connection ports were available to them.. i started disliking airtel..really bad.

after getting new connection i asked airtel to at least change the number ..now i have airtel line at home i just asked them to change the new number with my 8 year old number..
airtel people told me , first that old number should get cancelled only then they would be able replace it.. they took the request on 6th of October now its 2 of December .. still they processing the request of cancellation .. because of airtel's customer care inability to solve my queries i had to face lots of problems that lead to losses.

few days back when i spoke with airtel executive on this issue.. he said that they giving my airtel number to a new customer..

after 2 days again when i called customer care..
a executive transferred my call to her higher authority..
higher authority said they already gave this number to a new customer 18 months back..he also said 24 months got over after cancellation of this number so why the hell i'm calling them now. check out how much they lie..i told him to first confirm the customer details instead of telling false details. or lying

i got angry and told him that i would cancel all other numbers too. he requested me to give the cancellation request of all my number to him right then..
from being a proud customer of airtel now i became most abused and harassed customer by airtel.
