Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Respected sir/madam,

I have purchased a Airtel USB data card, post paid a month ago, they have not come for address verification and later they have deactivated my mobile no. [protected]. I have contacted the Airtel store where I have purchased this data card, they said they would be coming for re-verification but 10 days passed no response, even they are not responding to my call and keeping it on hold. Please see that re-verification...

Hi ,
Today (Aug 9th,12) , I have 12131 (Toll free) no. & I have activated my best offer at Rs.5 and I got 900 Local / STD seconds for 2 days .
I received confirmation SMS also & when I am trying to check my remaining balance of this dedicated balance , nothing is displaying .
So many times I try to call on *123*230# but nothing is displaying regarding dedicated account balance info .

I wanted to complain this , when I tried to call Airtel Complain Toll Free No 198 and when I press the number for connecting to the customer care agent
its going back to the starting of the IVR Recording (option). This happens in the 198 number .

Has Airtel done the extreme step and fired all their customer agents?? (they wheren't that good though) :P




Thanks & Regards,
Hyderabad

Hi,

I already have an Airtel postpaid mobile number, but I wanted another postpaid number for my wife today (14-Aug-12) as we are leaving tomorrow early morning to Ladhakh where only postpaid connections work.

A dealer name Platinum Plus (Ms. Anjali - [protected]) gave me a new number yesterday (13-Aug-12) for INR 500 (INR 200 as their fee and the remaining 300 to be billed in next three months). Their Executive Karan Tuteja ([protected]) came and picked up my address proof, photo and Rs. 500. The Address proof was of my old address which i changed yesterday (13-Aug-12) only. So he asked me to send the photocopy of the new place's rent agreement on his email by today (14-Aug-12) 12 pm. I clearly asked him to check my old address proof if it is visible properly and he was fine with it. He promised that the number will be activated by today (14-Aug-12).

I have send the scanned copy of the rent agreement of my new address today at 10:19 am to KAran's email id. But they started calling me that my house numer 89 is not clearly visible in my old address and can be mistaken for 39 (I specifically asked Karan Tuteja to check this and he was fine). For this I send them a scanned copy of my passport with the old address also at 11:27 am (just when they have send me the email address through sms).

I wanted to have the SIM working by today as we will be travelling early morning tomorrow.

Ms. Anjali now started saying that it was me who have given the improper address and the SIM will not be active today. I explained him that it was her executive only who clearly checked it. But she put down the phone saying that I am shouting at her.

After calling her again multiple times she pick the phone and said that she will not activate the number if I keep on shouting.

First this, it was not my fault, secondly it was their executives who were late all the time and third I will be angry because now I do not have time to get any other number from anywhere which will be activated today.

The problem is not about money, its about inconvinience and rudeness.

Platinum Plus dupes people for Rs. 200 all the time and it is a well known fact (looking at the number of complaints registered against it online).

I want to know how strict action can be taken against these type of dealers.

For your kind information that, I had changed my prepaid service to post paid service just 2 months ago. and the problem is, i activated GPRS service few days ago over the phone to customer care no to 121, in the time i got 200 MB free Internet usage in the time of activating of GPRS services. and i got that information from an auto generated call by the Airtel services. as usual i use internet in between 200 MB data. But i have received the bill for July month, that generated in 13th August.In this bill i checked that i have to pay Rs.529 for internet usage.In this bill there is no information about this FREE 200 MB DATA USAGE. instantly i called to airtel customer care to 121, they told that they are extremely sorry for wrong information to me but i have to pay for this usage of internet. they told that they have to nothing to do.

I had the worst experience with airtel, one by one they are canceling my airtel numbers,which were on my own original id proof.
The airtel service centre in Leela bhawan, patiala. Their own servers are failed. They refused to take proof for my number more than 10 times.they don't know how to behave to your customer. even a uneducated is better than them. When i purchased a new one from the dealer, today its outgoing has been stopped. and the customer care executor has only one line to say," main app ki koi sahayta nhi kr skta." even the dealer never submit the proof to the company. If complaining here will be taken seriously, I will appreciate it...

I, Mohan kumar, I planned to switch over my connection from Adayar to Thiruvanmayur but they didn't change my connection for past 20 days. I directly went customer care of Airtel office at besant nagar road which is opposite to Adayar anandha bhavan but they couldn't give me a proper response. Finally I came to know if they switch connection in adayar division they loose one point so that they didn't change. Finally i terminate...

I'm Abhishek Jain Customer ID: [protected].
Had been using Airtel for more than 3 years and airtel customer service is getting pathetic day by day..
My Airtel Digital TV has not been since 1st August 2012 and its been 12 days still my problem hasn't been resolved.
Airtel has got the most pathetic service in market and it even doesn't know how to work in a service industry.

Airtel field engineers tell us to replace whole of the dish on personal basis in less cost than airtel.
so what the hell is happening in airtel service and i would suggest every person in market not to subscribe to airtel service.

Respected, Sir/Madam

whenever I want deactivated they show application down and next day unnecessary they provide service and rec-duct money from my prepaid account. when I call to their customer care they miss guide me , giving me false Information.which equivalent to froad. So plz Kindly take action against Airtel services.
