This is Saikiran Gurram, I am using aitrel number +91-[protected]. Today 27th Dec. I Got A Missed Call On My Airtel GSM Mobile From A Number [protected]. He Told Me That I Have Won A 25 Lakh Lottery From A Draw Conducted By " Airtel Mobile Company" & Started Giving Me Details & Head Office Mobile Number. Told me to contact [protected] (Rajesh manager of Airtel office Delhi ). On contacting Rajesh asked me to give bank a/c details. & then Rajesh told me to deposit Rs.25000 as TAX (1% fo 25 lakhs) before the lottery amount will get credited in my a/c. & he also asked me that this results got declared on SAHARA NEWS channel on day before yesterday. He even said that deposit 25,000 into my account though SBH bank, then scan the receipt and send it to my email I.D [protected]@yahoo.com. As soon as we get it, we''l deposit Rs.25 Laks into your account.

When I Called Customer Care At Toll Free 198, They said They Don't Know Anything. I Want To Know Are Airtel Sleeping About This Fraud Phone Calls, What Steps They Are Taking To Handle This. Would I get my balance back, which i lost.

My name is Cherian Eapen and my customer id is [protected] ,I am using Airtel Digital TV from last two years, my location is in Kerala ,Alleppy (dist) 3 months back I got an SMS from them that my plan is changing, I called customer care and ask for the same they said they will not change without asking me .
Before last recharge I confirm from them that they will not change my plan without asking me , but from today I got to know that my package tariff had changed from Rs 172 to 188 per month without my required channels . I ask on call center for this and found terrible response that Rs 172 plan is removed and I have to wait for one month to change to other plan, “I want to know that why they are not changing to lower plan once they are not confirming by the customer , why they are not providing to customer requirements when they change the plan by themselves and how they can change a plan once clients balance available for a plan.”

Last plan I was getting all Malayalam , Ten sports and CNBC tv18 with Rs 172 but now I have to pay Rs 188 and I am not getting those channels they given some other channels which I am not required . Now I have pay extra amount for these two channels

I cannot wait for 3 more months. Since the speed is very slow I request you provide any of the following below solution by 15 days of this notice.

a. Provide the promised speed
b. Refund the paid Data card and monthly fees and compensate.
c. Provide the LTE data card by deducting the Rs 1500 for earlier paid for 3G data card.
Replace my 3G Data card with LTE data card to get atleast with some speed. I want you to take my
3 months old 3G data card only by deducting the amount of Rs 1500 (which I have paid for data
card of 3G) and remaining amount of 1000/- Rs I will pay to buy the new 4G LTE data card

I, therefore give you this notice to stop offering these services don’t cheat customers a suitable legal action will be taken against you to recover the compensation. I will file a complaint with the Consumer Forum as you are protected under the Consumer Protection Act of 1986.

I am user of the Airtel since Oct'2012 and my Number is [protected]. I am using Net on mobile which Co. has initially offered me for Rs. 98/ month and download free upto 1 GB. My Plan was renewed twice under the same terms & Conditions.
In the month of December they renew my plan deduct the same amount but given only 600 MB free and for 21 days. Company has not given any intimation before doing this. I tried to check the same with Customer Care @ Airtel and they respond me that Co. is not bound to disclose any change in tariff to the customer.

I also checked the same thing on airtel website and I was surprised to see that Co. is still promoting its Rs.98 Plan "internet Recharge Pack RC 98 (1GB/30 days)– Surf Internet on mobile or connect with laptop/PC to start surfing."

On not receiving the call I tried again to which they replied please change your Mobile without confirming which handset am using.

Request you take strict action against the Co.

dear airtel, I would like to complain about getting back my refund from your company of rs.5000.On the 27th of October 2012, I've made a request to airtel customer care for a disconnection of my post-paid numbers [protected] & add on number [protected]. My request/reference number is 46723082.I was promise to get the refund within 60 days. However, last week they sent me with a telephone bill (rental fee). I was shocked. I today, contacted the airtel dealer in Dharamsalla, HP, India for help and refund but they said that I'll get my refund after 3 months time. I don't understand airtel customer service. This is totally unacceptable. Airtel please do not harass your consumer.

PLEASE REFUND BACK MY MONEY OF RS.5000.00 AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I am using Airtel pre-paid number [protected] for last 10 years. Recently when I installed MyAirtel application in my Andriod instrument, the registered name is showing somebody else' name. When mailed and checked with 121, airtel executive confirmed that it is in somebody else' name. I've submitted required documents requested by airtel, more than thrice in last 10 years. I've personally handed over documents to Airtel office, Vikrampuri, Secunderabad & Airtel Office, White House, Begumpet, Hyderabad. In spite of this the name and details are not changed according to the documents. Are these airtel offices are dummy offices, do destroy documents once they received it from customers. If not, then whey my name is not registered in their database. After writing several mails to 121, the executive says he cannot talk to those airtel offices and change the details. He was suggesting me to personally visit airtel office and check with them. Why should I do all these things? When I've submitted documents, why can't customer care executive can contact at those offices and get the documents. Is airtel do disintegrated?

Kindly do the needful.

Hi,

i had raised a ticket for transferring my broad band connection with the phone number[protected]. The Ref No : 25480834 and raised on 2nd December , was informed it would need 5 working days and would be resolved by Dec 6th. Post that i called Airtel on 5th Dec to check on the progress of this ticket and was informed that it was on track and it would be closed on 6th Dec. I shifted residence soon after and called Airtel on 8th Dec to check progress of the move and was informed that there was a technical fault with the cable , and that my ticket has been escalated. I have called subsequently post that, spoken to supervisors and to the escalation department but to much avail. i was gauranteed a call back and no call backs happened. Funny part is they called once and got a call waiting and they didnt even try post that. My final call was on Dec 24 and was informed that the issue would be closed by Dec 26. So here we are, so is airtel really the best broadband provider this country has to offer to a customer who has used their service for 4 yrs?
Thank you

I am Vasu. I am visited Airtel Relation ship center at Anna Nagar (Reach Communications) several times ( close to 10 times) but without use. I am trying to change my post paid CUG connection to latest one and the people there are helpless.Timings stated is 9 AM - 8 PM but even at 10.00 AM there is no people to work. Also they try to avoid working and instead directing to other locations. After 4 - 6 PM is general power shut down at Anna Nagar and this center will also not work since there is no UPS or inventor. Not sure of the pathetic slate of the Airtel service provider. Need to check this is how Airtel works ( one of india's leading service provider).

Dear Avinash Doddmani Siddalingappa

Hi, I am Shashank Bhushan from U.P. East and my mobile number is [protected]. I recharged with (Rs. 45) 3G Data Pack, i got an confirmation msg, that the plan has been successfully activated & i've got 150MB 3G Data. But, i did not get any data, i called CC, they are saying different different things, like you have consumed all data, next one says no recharge has been done, different people saying different things.

I've checked there website and then recharged via E-top, but when i told them this, they all started saying that the plan is only available as Rs. 45 in self care and through CC online activation. But there's nothing mentioned like this in there website ! They said that through E-top i have to recharge with Rs. 47 for the same pack & in Rs. 45 E-top i will get a A2A Tarriff...

They denied submitting any complaints and the CC executive started using vulgar language and when i asked his full name he denied to tell !!!

They are saying that i should call CC before every recharge, to know the status of the plans ! Are they dumb ?

I need immediate help !!!

this is my number [protected],now I'm in Kuwait,i can't call in India,please tell barring password
