Referred Nodal Executive : Ms Jyoti
Referred Nodal Executives Number : +[protected]

Details and Background of Complaint:

1. My Airtel main account had a balance of approximately 1500/- rs on an around 16th June 2013.
2. Subsequently I have also received an sms alert for GPRS auto renewal within 3 working days on 16th of June 2013 . Please find attached the screen shot as proof .
3. However, the firm has been wrongful deducting my main account balance since then, without alerting me. The same I believe is due to GPRS usage which should be deducted from my GPRS account.
4. I visited the Airtel Main Branch in Vashi on 8th July 2013 and was directed to register my complaint on 999. which having done so, i have still not received my complaint number . After numerous follow ups for more than an hour i finally received a reference number .
5. The Branch Manager finally understood my case and mental harassment/trauma caused by your staff and customer service executives .( e.g : disconnecting calls, not transferring the calls to senior , not registering the issue etc.) and gave the nodal officers number.
6. Attempting to get in touch with the nodal officer on 9th July 2013 was itself another task. Finally having managed the same - i have received the Service Complaint No:[protected] .

I have Registered a complaint with you since i believe many such cases exists wherein the consumer has been wronged and mentally harassed .

I request for the following to be resolved immediately

1. Full refund of approx Rs 1500/- of wrongfully deducted balance + 200% of that value as compensation.

2. Full refund of total cost expended on contacting your customer care executives + 300% of that value as compensation

The same for the inconvenience, trauma and harassment caused by the firm to a loyal customer of over 7years.

AirTel — Account Deduction

I found AIRTEL service of inferior quality. It is my experience that the company deducts account balance from its customers without any reason and really the company has deducted amount from my account about 3-5 times now when I am trying to contact to a customer care executive I am unable to contact them. The mobile number from which the company has deducted balance is - [protected]

Airtel is the worst service provider and the worst company. Also I used connection of AIRCEL, TATA INDICOM but never found any problem.

Airtel is the inferior type of company it is running its business from the deduction of balance from its customers.
one of your employee said that your account dedication has been made due to AIRTEL LIVE uses other said your account has not been deducted from last 3 months but I am giving back some balance to your account but he lied me and I haven't got any balance still

AirTel — unauthorised deduction of balance

i am having airtel number [protected] post paid connection. i recharged my mobile by Rs.50 through internet banking and got a talk time of Rs.43 and my earlier balance was Rs3.68 . after recharging i made a call to my friend for 43 sec at 4.21pm.i am having 1paise/sec plan. at 5.50pm when i checked my balance which was automatically displaying on my mobile screeni was astonished to see that it is only Rs.1.18. I called up the customer care at 5.55pm and enquired about that where my balance has gone. they told me that the balance has been deducted towards my Hello Tune monthly rental (Rs.30) and for copying the current hello tune song(Rs.15) from my friend mobile whom i had made the call. i asked them that who has activated this service on my mobile as i have never subscribed for this nor I have ever copied the song from my friend mobile. they said that their system shows that i have activated the service.
I want my balance back as i have never applied for hello tune service nor copied any song. the song which is being taled about (ganesh aarti) is even not activated on my frieds mobile then how come i have copied the song. this is cheating on the part of the company and erasing their brand image. this is not at all expectedof the company like airtel and i will get my money refunded at any cost as i am not at fault.
i would like to go to any form and level to get this money of mine back and till the time i donot get my money refunded i will not make any call nor get my number recharged as a protest to this act of company.

AirTel — Unauthorised balance deduction

I received a call from airtel on my no [protected] asking for me to suscribe to a premier service called health tips. It prompted for me to prees some number. I dont want such service activiated and hence kept phone down with speaker phone on without attending the call. the call repeated and got disconnected but at the end the premium service was activated without my conformation and amount was deducted from my account. I immediately deactivated the service and raised a complaint with airtel. Complaint no is [protected].

So far my request has not been attended and no response from airtel at all.
something 2 to 3 months has been passed away but I haven't got my deducted amount yet... this is the best service of AIRTEL...

Airtel Mobile — Non-updating of Account

My Mobile No.[protected]

By its Transaction ID[protected], Air Tel acknowledged the recharge of my account. I find, however, that the balance in my account doesn’t quite reflect it. A day has passed since that recharge, let me add. What ever has happened to that payment? The transaction ID would confirm the payment. Why is it not reflected in the account? I thought a technically-savvy, customer-friendly company ought to update the account –just as promptly -- as it receives a payment into the account.

AirTel — Unauthorised deduction from balance

Dear sir,
Yesterday on 5th of May 2012, I was surprised to see that my prepaid mobile's balance was remained only Rs.43 or so while in morning it was near Rs.343.
It was direct cheating with me by the Airtel. I contacted Airtel customer care and told them that I have activated SMS pack, activated GPRS pack and only two local calls were made by me on that morning. So they should tell me why they have deducted near about 300 rupees during 2-3 hours time. There was no satisfactory answer from them. They told me that they have registered my complaint but till now I am waiting for their reply.
Certainly it is a clear cheating by the company. Because of big amount of money I could know it otherwise possibilities are there that they might cheat us with leser amount and we could not know it.
please direct me what should I do to get the justice, since it is a matter of money along with matter of breaking the faith.

Looking forward for a positive responce
