My Set top Box No.[protected]. I lodged the complaint on 17/10/2011 for the problem power is not coming to set top box they told per visit Rs.100/- will be charged. On the same day the sevice engineer came & checked. He told the problem is with set top box, & it has to be replaced. He told the set top box will be replaced with some other old STB & it will be charged Rs.350/- which has only 3 months warranty. I said yes, we were waiting for the other STB. They didn't turned up till tuesday again I lodged complaint on Wednesday 19/10/2011. They told the problem will be settled on the same day but, so far nobody has turned up & the same time the recharge value in DTH is getting reduced. In the begining they are providing new set top box but later replcement with old set top box is not acceptable which is only 3 months warranty for Rs.350/-. It means every 3 months I have to pay Rs.350/- for the old set top box.

This is regarding the complaint of mental harrasment and disturburing mentally to pay the bill of my friend. being the 3rd party, they have tracked my number from the detail bills and harrasing me to get bill paid by my friend and there is no law which says that you can call 3rd party for payment of bill if their customer dont pay it. and being just friendly relation, they cannot harrass me for whole day using bad words to me.

This is specially done by their executive name Pinkal Patel and her Team Leader on 19/9/2011.

They are not even apolozing next day wen my frnd has paid the full amount.

Dear Sir/Madam

I am getting Blank Calls since last 3-4 days from the number [protected] on my Airtel mobile number [protected]. When I pick the call and say hello..the caller on other end remains silent and after few seconds disconnects the phone. When I try to contact back again this phone number comes switch off! It is usually happening around 9 am. I've sms'd on this number stating that if you wont disclose your identity, this number would be reported to police. But this fellow again called up yesterday i.e 20th Nov'11 at 10:59 am!

Today (21st Nov'11) I've got the same BLANK Call from another number i.e. [protected] and the result was same as stated above. I m really annoyed about this. Hence you are requested to make this caller identity disclosed to me and a suitable legal action should be taken on whomsoever is doing so with me.

I shall remain highly obliged if you take an effective and early action on the same.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

My wife has an airtel number (cannot disclose the number for privacy reasons). She has been getting prank calls and SMSs from strange numbers which start with 54321 and are 13 digits long. The last digits keep changing but when the number is called back, it is going to AIRTEL Consumer service.

The number got today is[protected]. They have been calling and smsing irritating and provoking content and this is HIGHLY UNACCEPTIBLE.

I would strongly urge you to please look into this menace and get this resolved at the earliest as it is causing a lot o[censored]nwanted trauma to us.

Thanks & Regards,

I'm Asit Kanti Sarkar.My mobile nu. is+91 [protected].My balance is being theft from last two days without valid reason and not even sending a message for charge.When asked customer care officials said (Like many case before) of the activation some extra services which never started.Some days before Rs 40.00 was cut from my account showing the plea of mobile T.V. and then they returned Rs 30.00 after many contacts.The company sends me unnecessary messages though DND was activated by them after my pursuance and now says there is no DND in my account.Seems It is they who make changes in my account settings and take charge from me.I'm really disappointed for their dealings and want them to take some steps for remedy.

Hi,

I am using two corporate numbers [protected] and [protected]. On both the numbers Plan RA10 Cug 300 was activated (Which was Zero Rental). Suddenly on Oct 1st 2011, i got a message on both numbers that your Bill plan has been changed to RA 10 CUG 199 and now onwards I have to pay Rs. 199 as rental. I raised a concern and called to customer care but they were not aware of that. I dont have much usage on both the numbers and 199 is large amount to pay as per my usage. So I called again customer care and asked for disconnection.

I received a call from retention department and they promised me to change the plan again to Zero rental for [protected], so I asked them to cancel Disconnection. [protected] is used by my uncle and I dont know airtel has called for that number or not, but executive says they called thrice and after no response they had stopped services of [protected]. I called again to customer care and get the services restored. Now my concerns are -

1. Why the plan changed without prior notification.
2. If I am promised for zero rental again on 1 number ([protected]) then why not on the 2nd one ([protected])
3. I am still not able to see the changes in plan in my account information on myairtel.in

In the last call from retention department it looked like they were only promising for zero rental but were not sure enough. They asked me to check next bill and asked me to go for disconnection again if Plan remains same. Please address this issue otherwise I have to opt for disconnection of both numbers and look for other Telecom service provider.

Nowadays Airtel is activating unnecessary services like Jokes, Astrology,mms,cricket, etc... for the customers without their interest and without giving any prior notice. The customers are losing money on this and they are not even aware of this.

Only when their balance reduces to a greater extent, they come to know of this (especially people who don't know to make the maximum use of the mobile). Every time the customers are forced to stop the service by calling to the customer care / by sending some message. Airtel doesn't even reimburse the amount which the customers have lost unnecessarily for not having used the service.

Request Airtel to consider this on priority and stop / not start unnecessary services for the customers when they have not at all requested for the same.

Dear sir,

My mobile number is [protected]. But my mobile simcard registration is cancelled. Now I'm in abroad. But I received messages from India. Now I can't recive any messages. Why it was cancelled? I don't know. Kindly activate my simcard.

sir
i am unhappy iwth airtel services , i lodged a complaint against airtel for billing issue , but they are not solving my issue, i contacted with nodal officer but nodal officer didnt take any action against my billing issue ......kindly call me ASAP @[protected] for brifly knowing my problem...

Dear Sir or Madam,

I got an Airtel mobile prepaid SIM card and a corresponding number about one and a half month ago on Bannerghatta Road providing all documents (without which Airtel offices does not start applications). So far, I haven't had any problems with the card. However, today I received a text message saying "Kindly be informed that on televerification we have found that your name and address is not matching with our database. Your connection will be barred in 24 hours." which is poathetic since I have not received any calls nor the address and phone number is wrong. The number is [protected]. I have already called customer care three times but no one could or wanted to held me. Where is the service for the customer??? Could you please do somthng to stop this number getting disconencted!?!?!?!?

I have AIRTEL ADSL Connection Number:[protected]. I pay Rs 1500/- plus per month to avail 2 Mbps unlimited with FUP at 30GB package.
3 days back I got an SMS informing that I have touched 80% utilization of my FUP limit. I checked my usage from airtel.in site and found it had reached only 16 GB utilization. Obviously the warning SMS was wrongly being applied assuming it to be a 20GB connection. I immediately sent an e-mail complaint to nodal officer upeast on October 18, 2012 pointing the mistake and asking him to rectify tha mistake as my package was for 30GB FUP.
I promptly got an auto-generated acknowledgement.

Yesterday, Oct 19 at 4.59PM I got an SMS telling that my speed has be truncated to 250Kbps as I have hit 100% utilisation. I promptly checked my utilisation from airtel; site and it was just 20GB and my access speed had ofcourse been reduced to a crawl of 250Kbps. Obviously, my yesterday's complaint had had no effect. I rang up Airtel Customer Service they informed (Mob:[protected]) they checked up with their system section and told me that nothing could be done as the sytem has been fed with 20GB FUP for my number.

I was dumbfounded to say the least. I shot of three e-mail reminders to the nodal officer and the appellate authority but till today 1.45PM Oct 20, 2011 no action has been taken to rectify the issue other than the auto-acknowledgement.

THROUGH THIS FORUM I WISH TO HIGHLIGHT THE CALLOUS,. CAVALIER, CARELESS AND CASUAL CUSTOMER CARE ATTITUDE OF AIRTEL PEOPLE. I DEMAND MONETARY COMPENSATION FOR THIS UNFAIR, UNETHICAL AND DOWNRIGHT HIGH HANDED TREATMENT METED OUT BY AIRTEL.

Non installation of DTH services by Airtel even after having received the payment a week ago.

On advice of the customer care of Airtel, I had purchased a multi Connection of Airtel DTH services, on October 14, 2011. My consumer number is [protected]. I made an online payment of Rs 3589/ via my credit card as advised by the Airtel Customer Care executive in a mail written to me on October 12, 2011. I was told that the connection would be installed in the next 72 hours, however it is a week since the payment was made and no action at all has been initiated by Airtel. Despite regular follow ups and constant conversations with customer care executives every day no action has been taken. The attitude of the executives has been frivolous and none of the executives that I have interacted with have been able to resole the problem. I have been assured byall executives that I have spoken to Ajay, Pooja that my problem would be resolved but this has not happened.

I am really ashamed to say that a company owned by the prestigious Laxmi Mittal is so unprofessional in it approach. Not only this is unprofessional behavior but also is a case of harassment of the customer and violation of customer rights. I have been cheated of my right to quality and prompt services and would like to emphasize that such ignorance by Airtel should not be tolerated and Airtel should be punished by for not delivering as against promised.

I would like to insist that Airtel be penalized for non delivery of services and a lesson needs to be taught for their serious negligence on their part.I would like the problem to be resolved at the earliest
