Airtel Complaints & Reviews

AIRTEL PRE-PAID SERVICES — FAULTY PREPAID SERVICES

Respected Sir
I am a Law Student in ILS Law College Pune. My No. is [protected]. I have a Airtel Mobile with prepaid services. Before 20-30 days i have recharged my prepaid account with Rs.265/- voucher. the dealer of that voucher gave guarantee/agreed that you will get total amount out of 265 to 265 amount. (top-up) but i faced so many difficulties i.e- In Stead Of 265, they have given me only Rs.235 amount. Later on i have gone to their office situated @ Tilak Road, Pune & told my Complaint to them but they gave me suggestion that come tomorrow, because their server was not charge due to low electricity so they their computer couldn't display my account. later on i approached them according to them. but they gave the same answer & told me that your account was in minus situation so they deduct from my account Rs.60/- out of 265 (recharge Voucher), How can i have minus account?, How can they Deduct from my mobile's account & my money? I have Prepaid Account. They have disconnect their Services or outgoing calls after ending the Prepaid balance, so they have no right to deduction. I have not purchased from them any extra service. After that they gave me suggestion that approach to their call center ( Consumer Care Executive). They have also refused me to tell me about same not given me satisfactory Answer. After 2-3 days again i approach to them & told them that Please give me your head office's fax no. & phone no. so i can send my complaint to them through fax but they refused to give me those details & also told me that they have not give to anyone these fax no.s & phone no.s of their head offices in Pune which is situated (Bharati Airtel Limited) @ PMT Bhavan, Swargate, Pune. Their Consumer Care Executives Also Refused to give me these details . I also told them I want to file a complaint in "Pune District Consumer Forum" in this regard, so i want these fax no.s.

I have another problem regarding "Unnecessary messages & calls through AirTel's Network." I am in very distress because of their these kinds of services. Their Consumer Care Executives also not avail whenever i want to call them for difficulties. I am Facing these kinds disturbances. Please give me relief from this. Please take cognizance of my Case. I will file Public Interest Litigation to challenge.

Airtel Telecommunications — adverts

Hi

Airtel Telecommunications — fault in services

I took airtel prepaid connection on 15 Jan 2009 from mobile store(Bagadia Bhawan,C-Scheme,Jaipur), that time i submitted my ID proof as the connection was in my name, everything was going smoothly but few days back i received a verification call from airtel and they asked me my details when i answered them they said this number does not belongs to me. On 24th Aril 2010 my phone was deactivated by airtel without any prior information.After taking services of customer care they started their services.On 5th may they again send me a msg to deactivate my number and on 6th may my incoming and outgoing services were taken back by them.I have talked about the matter to staff of Airtel office in Ganpati Plaza and to the Distributer in mobile store, they are not responding to my problem and are not ready to solve my problem except suggesting me to change my number. Hence I need your interfernce in this matter and help me to find out where my ID is being used.

the telecommunication companies must be bound to keep a record of the numbers and addresses on which numbers are distributed and should have any clause for distributors so that they may not create such problems. government should take necessory action. this is the reason why crime rates are being increased and the matter should be taken seriously.

truely insane damn airtel should know wat they are doing

yes airtel people will do this, and they never allow people to leave from their network and also they never care for customers

I have the same problem. Whenever I am doing the sms for number portability, Airtel is blocking the same. I think we need to get together and sue this damned company

Nituj Gupta [protected]

Had connections in Airtel prepaid and i tried to change my Service provider to tata docomo(Which is FAR BETTER than AIRTEL in sevice). But after submitting the necessary documents to tata docomo with the Portal number, today i received a message that your request was cancelled by AIR TEL. When i contacted AIRTEL Customer care, they put me on hold for 15 min(more than 5 times and they charge 0.50 /3 min FOR THEIR USELESS SERVICE). Even after waiting so long, no one is bother to attend the call and it gets disconnected automatically...

Airtel — Cheating and insensitivity to customers

I had availed a new post paid connection [protected] on 20th, which was active on 24th Nov 2010. On 25th Nov 2010, I got a call from the Airtel call centre asking me too pay Rs 200/-, as i was staying in a bachelor's accomodation, within 2 days. On 26th Nov 2010 morning (i.e before 2 days was actually over), my outgoing calls were deactivated. As it is, there are very few airtel relationship outlets in a metro like chennai and on top of it, when i made the payment of Rs 200/-, my outgoing calls are still barred.

I sent a mail to [protected]@airtelindia.com, to whwich I get a response that i have to pay Rs 400/- and not Rs 200/- for activation.

While I taking this matter with the Consumer Forum and TRAI to convey my grievance, my advise to all you readers and Indians: Please avoid Airtel. It is the most atrocious and insensitive of all the Mobile service providers.

Hope I have enlightened you and wish and Pray that you do not fall into another Airtel trap.

Thanks & Regards

Sanjit mohanty

I have emailed to [protected]@airtel as well.. I just keep getting some reference numbers or request numbers to my mail and mobile, but nothing happens. When I call customer care with this reference number they were unable to come up with any answer and when I ask them to transfer the call to floor manager or higher executives they just keep me waiting for 5 min and call gets disconnected. This has happened 3 times and I wasted about an hour waiting..
And airtel doesn't even call back..this is not the way to treat customers.
And you just keep a comment that you are processing the problem, if so why dont you keep your mobile number and email rather than airtel care email ??

@ Mr. Murali.

I just had the same experience. It took me atleast 6 diallings to finally talk to a customer care officer at full length.

Neither the call center not the service center have any clue why a port out request is rejected. Surprisingly Airtel has a toll-free number for MNP ([protected]) where the only answer the customer get is 'Sorry sir, we dont have the information here'. Then why this toll-free number for MNP ???

I have only received an SMS saying that my request is rejected for 'Legal Reasons'. I had been running from pillar to post for the past 6 days to know what this 'Legal Reason' is.

@ Mr. Rakesh and Airtel Presence

I read many of your responses. All of them says, 'we are working on it', 'we will get back soon', 'give us some more time' etc. etc. I failed to see even one post where you have stood up and solved a customer's problem.

I suppose the job of Airtel Presence is pretty easy... just have some pre-written messsages ready and paste them here according to the customer query.

I really do not understand the sentence written as by-line near your signature:

"Connect with us 24X7 and we will be happy to assist you with a swift resolution to your queries on all our products and services"

Mr. Murali had posted this on 31st January 2001 and on 6th February 20011 (after 6 days) you are asking him some more time. Is this what you mean by 'Swift Resolution' ????? If you cannot live up to that tag-line, please either remove it or edit the same to suit your service levels.

@Rakesh Ranga

I didn't not get any call from airtel, let me know your mobile number and email, I will call you for free don't worry.

I have emailed to airtel presence and a auto generated email has come immediately and no solution has been done. and called several times to your customer care and no solution.


quote the compliant number if your team which you say, is working on my problem.

@ Murali

There is no point writing or following up with these people.

Please read my post in the following complaint page of mine:

Airtel — Airtel rejecting MNP 9840406878

I have applied the MNP request to Airtel for my number [protected]. The airtel executive said the Airtel would reject postpaid MNP. So I applied for migrate the Airtel postpaid connection to Prepaid connection, Since I am using the number more than 7 years.
After converted to prepaid, they rejected my MNP request. Since I had to wait 90 days. After that I requested MNP but they are rejected my request and not answering properly. Also they stopped all my services. Even I cannot call to customer care, 198 and stopped GPRS services.
They called me and warned that they will cut all the services for this number. Still I am not able to migrate. Trying this for more than 5 Months. :(

How to file consumer complaint through court?
Is there any point of contact in TRAI?

Hi
I have Airtel mobile number [protected]. After getting UPC I applied at Tata DoCOMO. But after 3 days I got msg from 1901(airtel) stating that ur port-in request has been rejected by your service provider due to legal reasons. I am using a prepaid connection so why I am getting this kind of msg.
I tried to contact at Airtel customer care center but they are either ignoring or cutting my calls. What a bad service provider Airtel is! Even they charge for calling customer care. No signal at my home.

I had put MNP request to port out from Airtel and Join Vodafone. Mobile number [protected].This was rejected saying "Your request is rejected by current operator (Airtel) due to There are subsisting contractual obligation from the Subscriber agreement. Pls contact your current operator for further details"

When contacted 121 on phone, they put the call on hold for 5-10 mins and then disconnected it. This has happened 3-4 times. Also, on emails they said I have not mentioned my mobile number in the email in proper format so they cannot reply.

They are trying to avoid customers and not giving any proper reponse.
Very unethical behaviour from a corporate house like Bharti. You guys are spoiling your own name.

Service Providers are in a fix as to what to do with the porting request because they do not like to lose a customer. Therefore resorting to all sort of harrassments without valid reasons. They are harrassing unreasonable to unthinkable extent and thus inviting hatred towards them selves from the section o[censored]sers which is bound to malign their reputation to an unthinkable extent. They fail to realize that they can not hold the customer for long by such harrassment technique by telling white lies about the reasons as rejection of requests. In my case there was a balance of 0.78paise against my post-paid scheme which they cited as reason for rejection where as they collected only Rs 1178 against my last bill of Rs.1178.78p when Rs 1200 was tendered for clearing the dues against th last bill. They only give useless reply to your mails.They are never specific to your querries. They try to educate you about MNP just to show that they are concerned about your inconvenience but in reality they are mischievious fellows out an out on toes to harrass you and make you suffer with mental agony.
In my case when the balance against m current bill was 0.78 paise, I found thay they rejected the request on the ground of outstanding payment. hen contacted oer phone, no one gave satisfactory reply. They give you bogus SMS and COMPUTER GENERATED msgs which does not serve any purpose.
Ultimately they called and asked me to make payment o[censored]nbilled amount too, failing which they informed over phone (they never replied to the point when I emailed them) that all the unbilled amount also needs to be cleared before porting. But in my understanding only the bill raised amount is to be cleared as a post paid user. However, to make the think simpler, I went out of the way adn cleared all the unbilled amount along with the full amount of the monthly rental and kept them informing about the status and the action taken as per their verbal advice.
Lastly I found that they are still showigng outstanding though I made full payments and when challenged they accepted their mistake over phone but did not incorporated the corrections in their wrong entries in the server which always is showing outstanding. I vehementally protested and said thatt my outstanding for biled and unbilled taken together is NIL and so there should not be any problem for porting. They even misguided in past saying that since I have satisfied all the conditions, they have nothing to do and only the new service provider wiill do the needful. It was blantant lie.
To my surprise today I got one message from 1901 that my requuest has been rejected on the legal ground. It sounded so funny! as on 9/2/11 the reason for rejection was outstanding and when it was proved that there was no outstanding, they found some alternative way to harrass me. They have never told anty reason to me for rejetion, Neither on 9/2/11 nor today but the message that I received today from 1901 made it clear that this time they have some the reason a Legal. Is it the way a renowned service provider is carrying on with his business by decieving the customer by resorting to unfair mean? Can he hold on a customer in this manner. There should be one rmeedy and heavy penalty for the service provider who are harrassiing the cuustomer by unfair means. bThis time they said thereason for rejecttion is legal .I fail to see any legal content. Can India be a fair country if the policy makers are not strict witth such service provider who are harrassing the custtomer by unfair means. In my case, I wonder, if the reason for rejection on 9/2/11 was outstanding what suddenly made the reason Legal for rejection.
I HAVE CCORPORATE CONNECTION AND EVERY TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR PORTING HAS BEEN SATISFIED. STILL I AM BEING HARRASSED ON ONE PLEA OR OTHER.
Can we not say that this is the Demerit of Privitization in India where ordinary people are harrased for no fault on their part.and no instant remedy is available? Such serviice provider shouuld be dealt with strongly and made to pay heavy penalty for dishonouring the decision for implementation of MNP Scheme? Why are they feeling so insecure about MNP? This very attitude shows they are not fair andtransparent in their business and cheating people with hidden means.

Yes Prasad u are correct,

Shall we move to TRAI or Consumer court???

AIRTEL REJECTING MNP

Airtel is not allowing its customers to switch to other operators of the fear of loosing its customers. i have applied for mnp on 30.1.2011, i got the new sim of reliance
and also i submitted my documents, after that i got the call from customer care about the reason for changing the operator to reliance, i said that its because airtel is costly as well as
3g has not yet come in chandigarh after that he said that they will reduce the call rates as well as sms for me . i rejected that offer and said that i will switch to reliance after that
its been 15 days that they have not done any mnp and i called around 50 times to customer care where i got the following response from them
1. WHY DO YOU WANT TO SWITCH TO RELIANCE?
2. YOU SAID YOU DONT WANT TO GO FOR MNP TO OUR CUSTOMER CARE WHO CALLLED YOU
after that he set a "BAD HELLO TUNE " AND REDUCED MY BALANCE TO -3.34 RS SO THAT I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CALL THEM and DEDUCTED 45 RS
what a customer care are they providing, is this a the care of deducting balance and setting bad hello tune is a service which airtel is providing to its customers
i must say that airtel will loose its share in the market as well as it will HAVE IMPACT ON CUSTOMERS WHO READ THIS MESSAGE

THANKING THE PEOPLE WHO SPEND THEIR TIME IN READING THIS MESSAGE

SUB:= Airtel is Rejecting my Porting Request

Airtel rejecting my MNP application

but here airtel is denying that right for me.
I have called 198 & told about this problem 6 to 8 times

Hi this is Kathik anand.C for Coimbatore, Tamilnadu.I am having the same problem with airtel and i applied for the mobile number portablity for the third time to convert from airtel to reliance.Finally I decided to send a postal letter with a CD which contain all conversation with airtel since my first portal request to TRAI.They will decide what to do to make my porting possible.To all I prescribe this way and tis is only solution to get relief from bad customer service of airtel.

It is not any serious problem to get MNP because of you may get UPC code some other source, but critical problem is to; it approve by your existing operator, when you submit UPC registration at your new operator to switch to there, before done everything it has to be approved by your existing operator. Your existing operator shall reject it with out any productive reason.
I am victimized this kind of rejection in two times

!dea is rejecting my MNP request for fake and wrong reason:
I am Bhaskar Pal of 164, M. N. K. Road (South) Baranagar Kolkata – 700036, I had subscribed one prepaid !dea connection of number [protected] (Kolkata Circle) which was activated on 1-Jan-2011.
Now a day I am taking decision to port out this connection to Tata Docomo, as this reason I had requested for UPC code for this no on 21-Jan-2011 & that UPC code was IK275QRB and this code was valid up to 5-Feb-2011.
On 22-Jan-2011 I was submitted MNP registration request to one Tata Docomo store. On 27-Jan-2011 I was received one SMS from TA-1901 the text was “Your Port In request for Mobile Number [protected] has been rejected by your service provider as you have been on their network for less that 90 days”. This reason for rejection was totally wrong and base less because of my connection was at that point 391 days (1-Jan-2010 to 27-Jan-2011) old. Then I was contacted with !dea customer care help line also I docketed a complain for this wrong issue with complain number[protected], still complain was not solved and showing processing.
On 6-Feb-2011 I was collected one more UPC code for this number because my previous UPC code was expired, the UPC code was IK297324 and will valid up to 21-Feb-2011. On 12-Feb-2011, I was again submitted one fresh MNP form along with my new UPC code at Tata Docomo store.
Finally I am very depressed to informing you that my existing provider this is !dea was rejected this Port In request on 14-Feb-2011 with another new issue, I was really surprised to sowing that SMS coming from TA-1901 and the text was “Your Port In request for Mobile Number [protected] has been rejected by your service provider due to legal reason”
After two unsuccessful MNP request, on 23-Feb-2011 I had submitted another MNP request in Tata Tele service for port-out my number from !dea to port-in Tata Docomo, my UPC code of this MNP request is IK228621. From one SMS come from TA-1901 I have known that my MNP request for my number is forwarded to !dea for approval.

DEAR BHASKAR,

YOU FIRST MENTION THAT YOUR IDEA CONNECTION WAS ACTIVATED ON 1-JAN-2011.

I had given an application for mobile number portability on 4th febuary 2011 to port my Idea no. [protected] to Airtel prepaid

But no action was taken by Airtel for 15 days and my UPC expired. So again on 2nd march I submitted my new UPC to the Airtel dealer who sits in a Airtel counter in my company. But still I have not got any response from Airtel. Company in which Airtel counter is located- Accenture, Whitefield, Varanasi) to whom I submitted my records is also not responding to me properly.

I had a very bad experience trying to port my number from Idea to Airtel. Kindly address the issue and port my number to Airtel at the earliest.

Hello Sir,

I have spent 2 hours yesterday and 2 hours today in the Airtel Outlet
(Electronic City) with relevant information and you people did not Activate my
account yet. My verification was done on Thursday (10th March 2011) and the
verification person (Manju) told me my account will be activated by 13.00 hrs
next day (Friday - 11th March 2011). It was NOT done and I called him and he
said he too do not know the problem and confirmed that he had submitted my
verification documents to Airtel. I talked with his manager and he too
confirmed the same and also said that he cannot do more than this because he
is an outsourcing employee. Hence, I went to Airtel outlet and talked to the
service represntative and she said that she cannot help because my activation
authorization is not released.

Today morning, I have contacted the Cusotmer care line ([protected]) and he
said as this number is not allocated to anybody yet I just need to submit my
documents in the Airtel outlet and they will provide me another SIM with the
same number. I visited the outlet and the person behind the desk said he
cannot help out and redirected me to the hotline number. I called the hotline
number and she understood my problem and told me to handover the phone to the
person behind the desk. I handed over the call and they spoke something and
disconnected. He told me that he need to send an email to get an approval and
then only he can help me.

I am not understanding what is going on. Was I spotted like a terrorist in the
verifiation? Why are you guys acting so weird. I cried yesterday for this and
I am Helpless. It is very easy to get another SIM but you do not understand
how many relations I loose if I discard this number.

I remember one thing though. I saw your MNP ad on yahoo website and I
submitted my request TRUSTING Airtel. Within hours a guy came from Airtel and
done all formallaties and vanished. Airtel was careful until ny number was
totally ported and once it is done, it discarded me like a garbage and
treating me as a most undervalue person in this world.

I have couple of thousands invested in your company and I am loosing trust on
you day by day.

Thank you

Hi,

Thank you for your acknowledgement.

I request you kindly try to resolve this ASAP because I am curently using a number which is in roaming. Secondly, I am missing my Cab pick ups and drops due to lack of communication with the transport department (They will contact ONLY on the number given in the roaster). Thirdly, I have printed the number in the subject on my sister's wedding card and I might miss some important call for the event.

I know you can understand the remaining problems I face because of this. Please try to contact me on my roaming number [protected]. I came to bangalore from my hometown 2 days ago and please do the verification formalities as soon as possible.

I hope you understand my situation.

Thank you
Anil

Hi,

I have recently switched my services to Airtel and went to my home town for 1 month. Today I am back and observed that my sim is INACTIVE. I called the support and they informed that my verification is not done and hence my number is deactivated.

Can you please send somebody for verification ASAP as my communication is stuck in all means?

Thank you for your help.

Airtel — Do Not Move Your Mobile Number to Airtel Using MNP

Many people were excited when MNP or Mobile number portability was launched in India. But the truth is that most of the MNP requests don't go through and people lose the money they spent for purchasing new SIM card, security deposit amd MNP charges. While most of the subscribers complaint about hurdles that original service provider creates in MNP process, The situation is reverse in Airtel.

Airtel staff is incompetent to make extra effort in following up your case with your current service provider. They don't seem to be sending 2nd request to MCH (Mobile clearing house) to get the number ported in...

The case in question is the MNP request for porting out my number [protected] from Vodafone to Airtel. It was requested on January 22, 2011 at Jammu (India) and the UPC number provided to me was:
VJ111281

Now, its been almost 2 months now and I am still stuck with Vodafone. And Airtel is not doing anything.
When I reported, all I received was an assurance from airtel presence but nothing thereafter.

When I reported this issue initially on http://consumercomplaintsforum.org/ , I received several emails from Vodafone staff and even their Nodal officer assuring me that they are not stopping the MNP. On the other hand i have not heard anything from airtel who have my money to process the MNP.!

See Details of this complaint at http://consumercomplaintsforum.org/mnp-from-vodafone-to-airtel-stuck-even-after-...⇄

Is Airtel Listening !

I am using the airtel no i.e.[protected] I want to port out my airtel no. but when i am generating UPC ( unique porting code ) they are not providing me the UPC code & the error which is coming

You have entered an incorrect code. SMS PORT <your 10 digit mobile number> to XXXX and initiate a new port in request.

i am already sending the message as they shown above
Kindly someone help me so that i can port out as early as possible.

I want to change MNP from Airtel to TATA DOCCOMO, But airtel is not allowing What I have to do?

I am a customer of Airtel since long . Regular habit, Faulty deduction of amount from web browsing, unnecessary services and not providing details about usage . Because, they don't debit the actual usage.
Airtel is doing unethical practice to customer for not providing fair practice in working.

Apart from this, I have been asked to submit address proof and ID proof which would cause unnecessary workload and taking leave though i had given twice earlier in the financial year .

Among the service provider except net work connectivity rest of service provided are not as per the ethical practice.

Due to my bad experience since long With Airtel, I never recommend to any one.

Hi,





I had opted for an operator change to Airtel(Prepaid) from Aircel(Prepaid). I had given the form and submitted the documents on 20th May, 2010 to my nearest airtel dealer.



My mobile number is [protected]. I got a message yesterday from 1901 that my number would be ported on 31st May from 12am to 5.30am. But I am still unable to use Airtel Service.





When I called up Airtel Customer Care today morning they said that my number has been ported to Airtel but some documents were pending. I then called up my nearest dealer and they said that they had given all documents and still I am unable to use the Airtel Network.





Now its been more than 10 days since I have submitted the form.







Please do the needy.

Hi!
Airtel is such a worst network when it comes to porting out a number from their network. one has to run from one end to another end to get it done. Even though no result. the more u contact cust care execs they disconnecting the calls midway. i[censored] keep calling them, they simply divert ur call to automatic telling machine. i hav experienced the similar problem. i hav applied for no. portablility on 14th of march. After 7 days i called them enquire the status but in vain. they keep telling the stories. One of their supervisors asked me to resubmit my documents. And as per insistence i took time off to resubmit the documents. But no result. i think i have called them umpteen no of times. every time i call them they come up with new stories. Finally when i spoke to the supervisor he told me that my request was not processed and told me that i hav sent them the cancel msg which i never sent and when i declined he asked me to start from the scrap bcoz the validity of the upc code was expired. The interesting thing is when i spoke to their executives regarding the expiry date 2 days b4 the actual expiry date they assured me that it is applicable as long as u submitted the documents. My sincere advice to u all is to register a complaint with '' consumercomplaints.in'' or u can visit '' airtel.in/airtelpresence and narrate ur problem. And this is the high time the authorities concerned(TRAI) to look into the matter and take stringent action against the Airtel Network for causing inconvenience to the customers.

Airtel MNP — fluctuations in airtel services

AirTel — Games download from Airtel Live

HI,
During Last month, i got messages from Airtel Live stating that i have downloaded some game from Airtel Live and i am charged Rs.99.So i called customer care immediately. The Rep said they cant do anything now until the bill is generated.But i kept getting these messages everyday. Someday i would get one messages some day i would get two.everytime i complained i got the same response that is to call them after bill got generated. So totally for the month of january i got around 13 messages.

Finally they took up the complaint and they are saying i have only downloaded and they cant waiver the charges. I have an Android Phone and i can use Java games so there i no point in me downloading java games. And not only that i dont know how to access Airtel Live also. I tried telling this but they r saying i have only downloaded.

Sometime i used to wake up in the morning and get i would have got this message late at night after i slept. How is it possible for me download games while i sleep??

Please look into this issue. I have a postpaid connection and my number is [protected].

They have charged around Rs.1000 in my bill

Thanks
Ajay Menon

I got the same msg even though I was not downloading any games. Even I dont know how to download them and how to use airtel live Single day they charged me rs 620 !! . Even the Java games are not supported in my mobile.. And all msg were in a single day!! Now they are saying that u have downloaded it. I am going to consumer court. Please let me know i[censored] have got any solution. I have started using new sim already.

And I had to wait till my bill got generated to raise a complaint!!! Now they are saying how the log will show that your number downloaded those games !!

Anyone within airtell who has access to my account can easily use my phone as proxy and download the games and send the bill to me. It is insider work.

Hi,

I'm Prateek from Kolkata.
The same Video Club subscription has been activated in my mobile no. as well [protected] (without my concern)

Airtel is therefore charging Rs.99/monthly and the funny thing is - the amount is getting deducted whenever the pre-paid balance is above than the required amount!
Last deduction was made on 13th August (Saturday)

I have contacted the customer care service and have spoken with the reps, but they are not willing to solve the issue.

This is a clear case of fraud with the unnecessary deduction of hard-earned money.
I therefore claim a refund or would leave the Airtel service and would rather opt for an MNP.

This is the worst thing any service provider can do!
I therefore claim a refund and

In such a way that I have activated by mistake by clicking some adds in.I have just opened the what's app.They replied in such a way that I am new to smart phone and hence I am reponsible for service activation so I should bear the cost for the service which is not used. This is how airtel money looting from customers.

AirTel — Balance discrepancy

Hello,
This is Pradeep, on 26th of mar 2010 i received an sms saying abt recharge with 88 and u will get 77.88 and get 10.22 after 48 hrs and there was no due date written regarding when i should recharge the same. i did on 28th mar 2010. Firstly i received 77.78 so 10 paise less and then i waited for 48 hrs to get the remaining but it still hasn't been credited yet. i called customer care but they say that i cant avail this facility bcoz its not applicable for me. i said that i had received the msg from their side but they say that there was no such msg sent to my no. So they r blindly lying bcoz i still have the msg with me.
Now what should we make out from this. Is my grievance going to be taken care off.
