Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

Sir,
This is Anubhab Tripathy, residing at Kaikondrahalli, Sarjapur Road, Bangalore,560035. My Airtel broadband connection was activated on 15th June,2011 and on 12th July,2011 the connection was down. I called up the Customer Care Executive on 13th afternoon and logged a complaint regarding "Broadband not working" and addressed the issue is urgent and hence has to be solved soon. As per the company policy, they need to resolve the issue in 12 working hours. But, instead, since 13th afternoon I had to call twice a day to the customer care executives, requesting them to send a technician to resolve the issue. Then, finally on escalating to the Nodal officer, one technician turned up, checked the connection and said that the DB box to which my connection is made has to replaced, as the port to which my connection has been made is faulty and all other ports are preoccupied. He said, he would come the next day and change the DB box and fix the issue. Since, then there has been no sign of any technician to address the issue, till now. I have called 19 times to the customer care executives and have talked to half a dozen of their tower managers, the nodal officer and the appellate officer. Everyone had only one thing in common, "We are sorry for the inconvenience and we shall fix the issue soon." All words no action. Like always I had to follow-up from side, by calling atleast twice everyday, yet no action. On 20th July I was told that, there is trenching work going on in my area, due to which the whole network is down in my area, and they had been trying several times to contact me, but I was unreachable. I receive almost 15 calls everyday and I answer to all of them. Even if I miss any, I call them back to inquire about the thing. I wonder when was I unreachable only to these guys. Moreover, my neighbours and the net cafe in my area are happily able to access the same network that I am using. So, does that mean that the trenching work was going on for only my connection. Again after reopening the ticket logged, they said they would resolve the issue soon. On 21st July I was informed that the issue is resolved and the link is up. I got it verified from home that, the issue is not resolved yet and no-one had come to address the issue. This meant that the technicians simply close the issues, whenever they feel like, just to save themselves from being escalated to their management. What can one expect form such a unprofessional and irresponsible organization? Every single employee is a cheat and wants to turn their face off the issues. Since last 8 days, these people have been fooling me and have been literally harassing me like anything. Kindly look into the issue and take as much strict action as possible against these cheats.

Airtel — Irresponsible Managers

HELLO,

WE ARE SHOCKED TO SEE SUCH A COMPANY WHO NEVER BOTHERS FOR CUSTOMER EITHER MAILS OR TO VOICE COMPLAINTS VIA 121
AS PER APPLICATION THE VOICE CALLS 100 -----NO MENTION THAT THESE WILL BE LOCAL, WHICH MEANS HIDDEN COSTS.

YOUR TECHNICIANS USED NOT OUR MODEM. REASONS BEST KNOWN TO THEM

OUR MICROSOFT OUTLOOK NEVER CONFIGURED.

NO BODY VISITED US INSPITE OF SO MANY PROMISES
CENTERX NUMBER SHOULD HAVE BEEN AS PER OUT FLAT#

IN VIEW OF ALL ABOVE THERE IS NO DIAL TONE INSPITE OF 7DAYS' LAPSE.

YOUR RETENTION DEPTT. Mr. ALOK CALLED YESTERDAY SAYING THAT "AIRTEL WILL ATTEND ALL THE ISSUES LATEST BY TOMOORW"
TILL WRITING THIS MAIL AS USUAL NO ACTION HENCE "we request you to refund our dues taken at the time of application & mental agony.
"
Hi,
Plz find my review. Below is the mail i written [protected]@airtel.in, but till now after 1 week didnt got any response.

I have Airtel broad band connection (without landline) .

3 weeks before I have just called Airtel customer care to inquire whether Airtel service is available in (Bangalore electronic city and Sarjjapur area). It was just an enquiry and I have never asked airtel guy to shift my connection.(plz check the recorded call) . After 2 days what I found is that my connection is deactivated by Airtel as they have raised an SR to shift my connection. First of all I have never asked to shift my connection to anywhere.

Therefore, I again I called Airtel customer care to activate my connection and it was informed to me that it will take 10 days and it will be done before 29th of September. I called customer care for at least 6 times and every time I requested to expedite the process as its very urgent and necessary. Every time my call is transferred to escalation desk but nothing happened. After 5 days I got a call from Airtel on 24th of September asking when your connection got deactivated( I answered – Five days back). The call got disconnected and I never got any call again.


When yesterday on 26th sep, I again called customer care to check the status and I got shocked to know that you guys had Closed my SR stating reason that I don’t want to continue my connection. I mean such a big lie and cheating from Airtel . Don’t the guys in customer care have any moralities to lie to customer . We never expected such a service from a brand named – AIRTEL.


IT’S A Shame to get associated with AIRTEL.

First of all my connection got deactivated because of the mistake from customer care only and after that we are getting such a lie from cutomer care.



Are you guys forget all the professionalism and just running customer care for namesake.


If you guys doesn’t provide service to customer, please disconnect and close my account immediately. We don’t want to be associated with Cheaters like AIRTEL.

Airtel — Irresponsible management and customer care

Connectivity and network issue has caused business loss and other damages. Irrespective of several written communication to take the responcibility for the deficiency in service, there is no communication. This is distrust and cheat.

    Address: Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh

    UNIQUE SERVICE REQUEST NO. 37022724.MOBILE NO.[protected]

    1. I have paid Rs. 3480/-
    2. You have refunded Rs. 238.22
    3. Either refund remaining amount or render account for remaining amount

    MY ACTUAL CASE: WHAT YOU HAVE TO READ (!)


    In this connection I have to reiterate that:

    a) ) I have paid all the dues i.e. my monthly bill and the fraction of bill up
    to 28/09/2010.

    b)Mr. Santhosh of Habshiguda franchise had issued the subscriber's
    receipt.(which I am enclosing now as per your request)

    c) After my going to US my daughter Dr. (Mrs.) Pallavi had visited the
    Habshiguda Franchise several times and pursued the matter for migration. She
    has been told that Mr. Santhosh had left the Airtel job and it seems he had not
    put
    up my request for migration.

    Thus: I) Bharti Airtel Ltd., had failed to control over its executive Mr.
    Santhosh that he had not prefered my request for migration from postpaid to
    prepaid
    since 28/09/2010. After laps of 7 months Bharti Airtel Ltd., is asking the
    customer to submit the acknowledgement receipt (!).

    2. In your reply you have evasively stated that Rs. 3480/- has been billed
    according to usage and hence the bill have been generated without rendering
    item-wise detailed account which will reveal that

    II) Bharti Airtel Ltd., had failed to update the customer request and claimed
    wrong bills by hiding its employees mistakes and put the consumer into loss.

    3.You have stated in your reply that there is an excess amount of Rs. 238.22
    for which refund request has been taken.

    III) As a matter of fact the refund will be more than that amount, if once it
    is agreed that my request for migration from postpaid to prepaid was not taken
    into account by the failure of duty of Bharti Airtel Ltd., employee (Mr.
    Sathosh as per the acknowledgment receipt) and thus wrong bills have been
    generated by hiding its employees mistakes.

    4. You have not replied to my query that Bharti Airtel Ltd., had failed to
    supervise the duties and responsibilities of its executive Mr. P. Ganesh Babu
    who had collected the amount of Rs. 3480/- on 17/03/2011 and had not updated
    until 05/04/2011 and put the consumer in distress, on which
    date the cause of action arisen.

    IV) I have requested to provide me a copy of Rules/conditions of Bharti
    Airtel Ltd., wherein the mobile services of referral person( i.e. my daughter
    Dr. V. Pallavi) will be deactivated if a customer is failed to pay the bill
    (of course wrongly claimed by Bharti Airtel Ltd.,). Because one of employee
    working in Legal Department of Bharti Airtel Ltd., had threatened my daughter
    Dr. V. Pallavi, over phone that her Mobile Phone No. [protected] will be
    deactivated if my bill (which was wrongly claimed) is not paid.

    6. Thus it is construed that you have not been able to address my query
    suitably.

    7. I am submitting the document as requested in your mail, without prejudice to
    my right to contemplate legal proceedings against Bharti Airtel Ltd., in the
    Consumer Court, if you are not addressing properly my grievances stated at I,
    II, III & IV above.

    Yours truly

    airtel/postpaid — Request for refund of excess amount paid with Airtel

    Dear Sir/ Madam

    Wish you a fine day!

    sub: Ref No.[protected]/20815990
    Mobile Phone No.[protected]
    Request for refund of excess amount paid with Airtel


    Issue:
    By oversight, I had paid Rs.8001/- instead of Rs.801/- for the month of Feb2009 on
    21st Feb 2009. Then I registered complaint with customer care people for the refund after
    adjusting Feb month bill due.

    When I have contacted customer care they had repeated the same slogan like "sorry, you will

    be receiving your refund cheque soon". Then I had esclated this issue with nodal

    officer, Airtel requesting speedy action in this regard.

    Proactively, I had clearly inoformed the nodal officer that my alternative address for

    delivery and mobile number to be given to courier people and ask them to contact before

    coming for delivery. When I contacted again the nodal officer I have got irresponsible

    answer that the cheque returned back to our organization. Then i have insisted for proof

    delivery from them and they are not disclosed so far.


    One of the Nodal office finally assured that " you will receive your cheque on or before 30

    th March 2009. I am not in receipt of the cheque so far.

    I frustrated and plan to lodge case against Airtel with consumer court for my amount and

    mental agony soon.

    Expecting speedy action in this regards.

    Thanks & Regards,

      Address: Thane, Maharashtra

      I am subscriber to mobile phone services of Airtel for last ten years having mobile No.[protected].Regularly there is to some messages of promotional ads. from different vendors which was ignored by me as the same belonged to Indian companies. However, on 18.07.2011 I received a message from one Jack Bernard informing that on the basis of draw conducted on mobile numbers my number has won 500,000 GBP. I was also asked to give my personal details on e.mail address [protected]@live.com with contact number [protected].I am fully aware that this is a fraud scheme.
      the message was repeated on 20.07.2011. Most irritating was the missed call originating from Pakistan having number [protected]. In the light of frauds being committed on unsuspecting citizens as well as terror activities conducted by Pakistan based jihadis on Indian soil, it becomes more disturbing how come the mobile phone numbers are obtained by unknown persons.

          Airtel has been a headache for me since day one of my association with it. Some of the latest troubles I have faced are given below.

          1. IVR getting blocked (status – pending)
          The IVR facility to speak to customer care executives is getting blocked if we speak more than three times a day using this facility. Airtel says, this is because of TRAI regulation. But, I fail to understand whether TRAI has made it mandatory or has just given an option. My previous operator did not follow this practice. The IVR will be released only in the next month. My IVR got blocked last month as well as this month. Whenever I called to the customer care, my call was put on long hold and getting disconnected at the end or getting disconnected while speaking. If the customer has to call to the customer care more than thrice for resolving an issue, that shows the quality of the Airtel customer care. Instead of improving efficiency, they are using short cuts like blocking IVR so that no more complaints will be there from the number.
          2. Charging exorbitantly (status – pending)
          I have called to the number [protected] on[protected] and for 10 minutes and 28 sec, I was charged Rs.22 (i.e. Rs.2/min) instead of Rs. 6.28 as per my plan. Airtel customer care executive says, this is a service number. As far as I understand there is no concept of service numbers and non-service numbers. In fact, this is a universal access number (UAN) and all calls to this number will be charged at local call rates. This system is, in fact, for effective routing of the call, especially for business customers. Moreover, Airtel does not mention anything about call charges to the so-called ‘service numbers’ under the tariff section of its website. This way of charging is just an unhealthy business practice followed by Airtel, which is detrimental to the interests of consumers. It is noteworthy that other operators (I know at least about my previous operator) do not charge like this on the calls to UAN numbers. I am wondering now whether Airtel would charge calls to toll-free numbers as well (They start with ‘1800’ and as per the definition of Airtel, they can be the so-called service numbers)

          Sincerely,

          Some of the previous issues I faced are

          1. Porting Issues (status – solved as of now)

          I have submitted my application to port to Airtel on 4 June 2011 (with Unique Porting Code VA528695). . The maximum time to port is 7 days. It took 10 days for me (from June 4 - June 14). Vodafone says that they received the porting request on 9 June 2011. In that case, Airtel, might have submitted the porting request to Vodafone after 5 days of my submission of application. No Service Period is limited to 2 hours (and also should be in the night). However, I had been effectively in no service period since the night of 14 June 2011 for about 24 hours. These were clear violations of TRAI regulations

          2. Change of Plan without my consent (status – solved as of now)

          I got a message on[protected].saying that my plan has been changed for two months. This happened without my consent. I have contacted my customer care several times and they asked me to recharge again with Rs 27. I have recharged on[protected] with Rs.27 (Transaction ID –[protected] and still I did not get my original plan. I had to follow up various people like customer care, nodal officer, appellate authority etc., and for more than one week, to get it done.

          Thanks
          Jibin
          Another major experience from Airtel is:

          Rude behavior of customer care officer (status – no action taken)

          I faced very rude behavior from the in-charge of Airtel Relationship Center at Begumpet (Address - No1, White House, 6-3-1192/1/1, Kundan Bagh, Begumpet, Hyderabad 500016) on 18 June 2011. I have given a complaint to the nodal officer on[protected]. However, as far as I understand, no action has been taken.

          As I am the party involved in this, I would be happy to know how you resolved the problem. If you have really resolved the problem, why do you hesitate to keep me in the loop?

          Hi Mr. Rakesh,

          Nothing is better than nonsense. I am not aware of what the hell is your solution provided to me. You have been charging more even now at the same exorbitant rate. It clearly shows the hidden charging structure of Airtel.

            Hi,

            Please unsubscribe me from 54321- Football Updates. There is no response from you for last two-three weeks. When I contacted Customer Care through Twitter, they asked me to mail you. I haven't got any reply from your side YET.

            Please note that I didnt request for this service and an amount of र 3/- is deducted every day from my account. If I am correct, Rs60 or more is deducted from my account till now. Please resolve this as soon as possible (I would love to continue your network service).

                    this was the time i called up customer care for upgrading DTH annual subscription, i was informed by customer care, that you recharge for 325 rupee and you get 350 rupee after 48 hours to your account, he even confirmed that you can do this multiple transaction and each transaction will have 25 bonus rupee reflected in your account. just that i have to recharge every time with 325 rupee. done!
                    i asked him to reconfirm on the same, fair, he placed me on HOLD for a minute and double confirm about above offer. it took 45 mins that evening for me to do 7 * 325 transaction to reach 2100 rupee. latter once all set, i called up customer care, now its shocking they rejected to provide me the offer which they said from there mouth, how shameful. airtel is rumbling bumbling there client they give about there valuable time.

                    nodal was one more pathetic experience, the person who came on support from nodal sounded more like DON and came over phone to say conclusion that we can't do anything PERIOD.

                    its sad that such brand value company are making profits by servicing bad to worst of support, i would be please to leave airtel and jump to other service provider who has meaning and give little importance to there customers. i would insist others to also avoid airtel , its no good dht company compared to tatasky or reliance dth.

                    also DON"T EXPECT NODAL TO HEAR YOUR VOICE, THEY ARE NO GOOD COMPARING AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE.

                    WHAT A SHAME !!! WHAT A SHAME...
                    MR. Naveen you called up 3 times to me and said we are looking into the matter, we agreed upon the deadline till 15th aug, wondering what made airtel to say you solved my issue. IT SOOO DIRTY TRICK SIR. Also isn't it awful, that u need so many weeks to resolve small small tiny matter ?

                    NODEL IS AWFUL, even corporate team are among the one. All same team i guess.

                    I HAD IT ENU[censored]

                    I Would suggest everyone to AVOID AIRTEL DTH connection, These people are luring by pathetic customer support and even continued to show there lame support. They have no sense what they are dealing on and offering fake discounts offer's to consumer which they reject after accepting the payment.. Lets unite and avoid airtel, they are really no good compare to others.
                    same bad experience with airtel DTH. false promises by PAN INDIA sales department and customer care were clueless about the promises made by them. Got hooked as I have paid by credit card for subscription. I feel pity on myself as I have to bear this torture for another 1 year. Bad service by Airtel DTH. You are right that NODAL sounds like that they are correct and customers are wrong. They are all SOP concerned and never bother to think out of box. All humans in airtel which behave like machines.

                      i noticed that my balance was being deducted. when i called up the customer care, they told me that a chargeable service(job alerts) had been acctivated in my number. but i never did so. when i asked them to refund me my balance deducted, they disconnected my phone twice. the third time i called up and told the customer personnel to transfer the call to a senior executive, then they did not even receive my call. Secondly i never received any confirmation message regarding the activation of this service. Neither did i receive any job alert messages for the duration when this service was activated on my phone. when i asked the customer care about it, they just told me that it could be a TECHNICAL ERROR. and i was charged for the service that i never activated
                      my issue has still not been resolved. i had even lodged a complaint against it with the airtel customer care, but still i have received no response from them. my request numbers were CUIVR[protected] and CBDPA[protected]. my cell number is [protected]. and my address is 8B, lal bazaar street, kolkata-1

                          so please kindly look into that matter
                          Respected sir,
                          I have an airtel mobile number([protected]) and have been deducted 500 rupees without any reason.
                          And moreover was given totally wrong information by the airtel costumer care.Someone said that your money has not been deducted and someone said that it has been deducted in a call and the other that it was deducted while using internet.
                          This is not the first time airtel doing any such thing.
                          I just wanna ask the airtel people that takin small amount of money from citizens makes them rich, are they so in trouble.
                          Almost evryone using airtel i know is suffering with this problem.
                          I therefore request Bharti Group to look into the matter.
                          Thank You
                          Respected Sir,
                          My Airtel no. is [protected]. The jobs service has been activated without my permission for 3 days and they used to deduct Rs 3 after every three days
                          So, i want to unsubscribe this service on my mobile.

                            Dear Sir,

                            My name is Rajesh Yadav, I have one airtel mobile no:[protected]

                            On My Airtel Mobile No: +[protected], There are so many additional SMS services like Cricket Score,Astrology,Whether,Etc Added without my prior confirmation.Every day my balance got deducted due to that. I have lodged so many complaints regarding that in Airtel Customer Care.But there is no solution provided by them

                            Request you to help me out from this problem.
                            I have a prepaid mobile number [protected] of Airtel. Five months ago the company activated "Cricket" & "Shaayri" pack without authorization. When I complained to the company they informed that they have only 3 months' record. Still, they offered to refund Re.1 only. When I protested they offered to refund Rs.10 only. When they should have refunded at least 3 months charges.
                            sir,

                            i had a mobile service of Airtel company. the no is [protected]. Quite often the the value service calls and sms comes in it and that to odd times. some times i don't even know when value added services starts on their own. the amount keep deducting from the balance. i already ask to stop my services by sending SMS to 121. the message had come back to stop the services quickly. but still the amounts are deducating. i would like that all the services should stop, and there should not be any sms and calls from the company for any services in my mobile no. Please do the needful and give customer the services for which they should remember you.

                              Address: West Bengal

                              I have a post paid mobile connection (CUG) of Airtel Telecom Service Provider. On my bill paln, I took a rate cutter of Rs.99(for 12 months) for reducing my STD charges to 50 paisa from Rs.1.50/-. Now the rate cutter plan ended on 21st of June'2011 and from 21st of June they charge Rs.1.50/- for STD call and it result a huge bill. Now the matter is that they send me the notification on 5th of July'2011, and my complain is that why they have not send any notification on 21st or before, so that I could managed my bill plan accordingly. I have spoken to Airtel Customer Care in this regards,they told it was mistake and they refund me only Rs.200. But money is not matter, the matter is they are ensuring that their service is better in the industry, so why the customer like us will suffer for the mistake of their service. I want full justice regarding my bill plan.

                                    I applied for Airtel wifi Broadband connection on 3rd July. A person named Abbasali came to my flat and took my original rental agreement saying he needed it to get it stamped by Notary , passport Xerox, photograph and Rs 1050 of the plan saying that he is going to return back the original rental agreement the following day and connection will be provided within 4 days. Since then I am calling him and he is not responding to my call. I talked to Miss Sharweela K who sits at Maruti Infotect Centre, Inner Ring Road, Bangalore. She gave me number of Vinay and that person gave me number of his manager named BNoy.Whenever I spoke to BNoy he said by end of day you will get back your original Rental Agreement and now he is also not picking up my call. Then I called up at the number mentioned in your Airtel Brochure and that person is also stating that madam you will get back your original Rental agreement. No one is taking up the responsibility. Everyone is just passing on and customer care of airtel is good at registering complaints and least bothered about resolving the issue. I never expected to receive service from a brand like Airtel which says it to be number 1 brand. It is just busy in making new customers and unable to handle the existing customers base.

                                    Following are the details of the form, complaints, and contact number of persons who are just ignoring the calls.

                                      As committed, I have not been offered the Intra-calling facility on my 4 Airtel numbers : [protected], [protected], [protected]and [protected].

                                      I was offered the following plan with more benefits as follows:

                                      a) All 4 numbers would have intra-calling amongst them absolutely free
                                      b) For first two months, a waiver of the rental on all 4 connections
                                      c) 10 local/national msgs daily free on all Airtel numbers
                                      d) 300 local as well STD mins free every month to any mobile/landline number in India
                                      e) CUG Plan Win 149 to be activated effective 1sty June 2011
                                      f) 200 local mins free for 2 months on all 4 Airtel numbers

                                      However, the commitment is not met yet. I have been trying to make the Airtel CC team understand but everytime I'm told a new story and a new process. Can anyone in the Airtel team would try to retain a customer snce 8 years like me with no default payments.

                                      I'm looking forward to action on this ASAP.

                                      Thanks,

                                      Harish

                                        Hello,

                                        I've been using Airtel digital tv for 6 months now. Since last Friday (15/07/2011) am getting Error code 6 in all the channels. When i called up the customer care i was informed that my account is in safe custody. I have not placed any safe custody request in the past.

                                        Till yesterday (18/07/2011) i had a balance of Rs. 40.37 in my Airtel Digital TV account. The customer care executive asked me to recharge to a minimum of Rs. 100 to resolve this Error Code 6 issue. I recharged it to Rs. 100 and now my airtel digital tv account balance is Rs. 140.37, even now the issue is not resolved.

                                        When i called up the customer care today, they informed me that they have escalated this issue to their senior officials and also told that I will receive a call within 30 minutes. I've not got any complaint number for this issue also. I've written to [protected]@airtel.in, [protected]@in.airtel.com and [protected]@in.airtel.com on top of calling the customer care regarding a solution for my issue. Would appreciate if you can resolve this issue immediately. Thanks.

                                        Regards,
                                        Pravin
