    Dear Service Provider,

    It is very Strange and sad to see the status of a connection not being provided.
    I had deposited Rs 200 as a deposit fees to Mr Neeraj Sharma, in Raipur for installing a broadband connection of Rs 499/ rental per month. I was promised that it will be done in 2 days, now it has been more than 4 days and I am yet to get the connection.
    This is a matter of Raipur and following is my address.

    This is a very POOR SHOW FROM AIRTEL.
    Kindly look into the matter that your guys should not promise MOON to customers and then shy away from even picking up the phone.
    Thanks

    I have taken broadband connection of landline number 4575145
    connection is not completed by airtel executive
    airtel executive is not connect reciever to land line point
    please complete the connection
    i have taken broadband connection of landline number 4045920. at present i have a plan of 1099 but i want to take the plan of 699.
    plz. consider this application $ convert my plan in 699 plan.
    thanking you.
    I have given all the documents along with a check of rs.1500 for airtel broadband wifi connection on
    07-Aug-2009. While receiving the documents airtel representative told me that he will give the connection within 2 working days. And now its almost 17 days. No one will give the proper status and the service is horrible. They are bluffing the customers saying 2 days and are very prompt in clearing the cheque rather than giving the connection.

    This is a very horrible service that is never expected.

      Hi,



      My mobile number is [protected].



      I have been following on complaint number [protected] since 26th Jun and no resolution happen yet. Here is details of my communication with Airtel:



      On 26th morning I checked airtel web site, found that on Rs. 199 recharge I will get Lifetime validity & 95.02 Rs talktime (Downloaded PDF from airtel is attached).

      I got a message with transaction number 35754824, saying that recharge has been completed successfully. But I didn’t get any validity & talktime.

      Then I registered a complaint on 26th Jun with Bharath TM. Complaint number is [protected], he assured me that I will get a call back by 3PM on the same day, unfortunately I didn’t get any call.

      Then I again called on 1st July and spoke to Prasad, he assured me that this will get resolved in 48 working hours. Call reference number is [protected], unfortunately nothing happened in that time period.

      Then I again called on 3rd July and spoke to Shree, she assured me that this will get resolved in 48 working hours. Call reference number is[protected], unfortunately nothing happened in that time period as well.

      Today morning I called again and spoke to Asha, she said I need to register one more complain, I said no I don’t want to register any new complaint, then she said she can’t help me. Call reference number is [protected].

      Then I called to Nodel Officer (Mr. Madhu), he told me please send PDF & he will take care of this complaint.


      It was really a frustrating experience dealing with Airtel.

      AirTel — mobile prepaid recharge

      I Have been observing for the last couple of years that the "Fruad' airtel co.
      is deleberately making fool to me by making prepaid subscription of Rs.100/-, I get Rs.80/-for which the offer says"Full Talk Time"Secondly I never subscribe for cricket,ring tones,songs,astrology & chat with females
      etc.,suddenly I FIND that Rs.30/- is deduted from my balance account.

          I had got a new airtel connection and DSL installed on 6th sept[protected]. Thereafter I had been facing some problems due to clash to software with my reliance data card. On 9th morning we called the local rep mr amit and asked for his visit. Two persons turned up at five pm. On being asked for their complain book, to register for the delay, they replied that they have none, and they have been informed about the complain just sometime back. Mr Amit is not available and not contactable. They gave the cell numbers to their Complain Coordinator Mr Feroz and a Sr Officer My Yanenrdra. On calling Mr Feroz, I asked him" is that Mr Feroz? " . To which the reply was " who are you?" He was extremly arrogant in his behaviour and asked me to keep my phone down. Later I called Mr Yanendra, and on talking to him, I asked him to provide me the contact details of their Office head, to which he replied that u can visit our office and meet the customer care officers and they shall give me the details. On begin asked the landline number of the office board/reception, he said there is none.

            I have a mobile postpaid connection with airtel. In the month of June'08, I received a bill of Rs. -157.07, which included a payment of Rs. 527/- paid by cheque. Now since the last one month call centre executives have been calling me and harrassing me mentioning that "I have a outstanding of Rs. 742/- (they are claiming payment of Rs. 527/- have been reverted back to my bank, which is not true). In between this, i received an invoice amounting to Rs. 258/-, which was paid on time. Due to wrong doings in accounts of airtel, outgoing as well as incoming calls to my mobile have been blocked. This is truely blackmailing on part of the service provider.

            I booked a internet & telephone connection on[protected] at 1000 hrs. Shri Bhimsen (cell No. [protected]) from Bharti Airtel Services Ltd., B-38C-1, Sector 57, NOIDA came to my residence. He filled a few set of forms (NO. 1747269) and I gave him a cheque of Rs. 1850/- ( reciept No. 665737). He told me that the connection will be provided to you by 1- 6- 2009 positively.
            I had a BSNL internet & telephone connection. On his assurence, I gave an application in the BSNL Telephone Exchange to de-activate these connections w.e.f. 31-5-09 (A/N).
            On 31-5-09 evening, Shri Bhimsen told me that the connection can not be provided to you because of some capacity problem. In such a situation, anybody in my place will be shocked.
            I also talked to two officers of 'Customer Care' ( phone No. 4444555). I explained them the problem. They were unable to give me any feedback/ information.
            Now, I want the following:
            Airtel should honour it's commitment and I should be given the connection as ealy as possible keeping in view the date of my booking i.e. 28-5-09 (F/N).
            Please let me know the probable date of providing the connection.
            I hope to hear from you.

              Dear Sir,

              I am the above mentioned person here.My complain is rearding the payment of my Airtel bill at Delhi office.
              Sir, my airtel bill for the months feb-may'08 was pending which cleared in the month of june-july. I did this after a call from Airtel collection office from some
              Mr. Rajiv Saxena (Rajiv
              Airtel Ltd
              S-9 2nd Floor

              Collection department
              [protected]; email id: [protected]@airtelmail.in )

              As per him the bill was amounting to Rs. 6500 for which I asked the proof.
              After some realisations he settled the bill at an amount of Rs. 5100(Cheque In the name of: Bharti Airtel Limited, SBI Cheque no. 918244, dated: 26/07/08).

              After two months of this, I am getting a call from court office of an advocate (Mr. A.K Singh, Ph: [protected]) who says tht an amount is pending from my side.
              Now the persons from airtel collection dept. are not ready to entertain this matter.
              Please see to this because I dont want any more things unnecessarily coming out of it.

              Sincerely,

                sir
                I'm a cutomer of [protected] phone possesing for last many years. this August Air tel launched 1947 scheme with full talktime and 1947 days validity. when I enquired from my local dealer he told me that you will get benefit even on 19th of August. I was chared 1947 by the dealer, but my surprise I got only 1700 rupees and one years velidity. the dealer then said he can't help. Still my matter is not solved. I did not get any message about the expirey of the scheme and the local dealer too did not have any info.I live in Happy valley Mussoorie, DT Dehradun.
                Please take action against the compony for this cheating. The dealers don't supply any receipt but they have their transit IDs and my number in their hard disk of the main office.

                  Service tax being charged on selection of the number
                  I have taken a airtel connection recently with a platinum number charge on the selection of a number i.e., (Rs 5000/-).I was given a waiver of Rs 2500/- and balance was paid.When I received my first month bill I found that they have charged Rs 5000/- in my account adding service tax on the same of 12.36% i.e., ( Rs618/-) and against the same a payment of Rs 2500/- which was made at the time of taking the connection was adjusted.The bill reflected that I still need to pay Rs 3428/-.But when i contacted the airtel customer care they gave me waiver of Rs 2500/- as assured but they have yet not waived the service tax part.I spoke to the floor manager Mr. Azaruddin Sherif who said that the same cannot be waived off.He told me that he can waive Rs 309/- i.e., ( 12.36% on Rs 2500/-) which was given as a waiver to me.When I took the connection I was provided with a receipt of Rs 2500/- Without any service tax.The floor manager said that he cannot connect me to the manager Mr.Srikant.I have made the payment of the due bill excluding the service tax which is not being waived off.
                  Kindly oblige and do the needful...

                  Thanks & Regards

                    On 03-09-08 at 10.30 pm my mobile showed balance amount as Rs.366.On 04-09-08 at 09.00 am it mentioned my balance amount as Rs.91 whereas no calls were made by me during said period.Since then I could succeed only once in connecting my self with Customer care executive who in response asked me to dial again after one hour.I made lot of efforts but custome care gets me disconnected in more than 100 efforts and thus no body is available for informing exact reason of deductions.These service providers are thus making money and there is none to safegaurd customer intrest in this country.

                    I not only fully agreed but come across many customers of Airtel/reliance daily who are being cheated by these service providers in this way and even inspite these companies executives accept the illeagel/unauthorised intentional deductions of amount from customer balance but same is never refunded to customer.In fact all are involved in organised racket and none is intrested in safegaurding consumer intrest.All is mockery.

                    Airtel — Unauthorised deduction of balance amount

                    Sir,

                    I am an airtel customer for the last five years with unchaged sim card no[protected]. My entire family uses only Airtel.

                    On 15.10.2008, unauthorised service charges amounting to Rs.243/- had been deducted from my balance amount for alloting free SMS and animation downloads. I am not an internet user through the Airtel No given above and I have not subscribed for any such thingh. I am amazed to know how the amount can be deducted from my balance.

                    Please arrange to check the details and refund the unauthorised deduction of Rs.243/- Otherwise, inspite of the good services prodided by the Airtel, I along with 15 other family memebers will be forced switch over some other mobile service provider.

                    Awaiting you earliest response by retun mail and positive action for making the refund. Otherwise, good bye, once for all.

                    M.R.Sankaran
                    I am a subscriber of AirTel Prepaid for the last 6 months.However I have not activated AirTel Live WAP/GPRS or any other such internet facility.Still yesterday(as of November 2, 2008)I was charged for Rs.50/- for "downloading games from Airtel WAP sites".What if this continues for many days?I shall be left with no option but to change my service operator.
                    Hope AirTel is listening...or it will be my final goodbye...

                    I'am using Airtel prepaid services since 5-6 years. My Airtel No. is [protected].
                    I am being charged Rs. 10 per month for Matrimonial Alerts Service code no: 5432105 & comedy Junction, code no:543212.

                    I have never asked for these services & I'am being robbed of my money every month. I strongly condemn this theft.

                    I request you to kindly look in the matter & stop these service with immediate effect & refund the amount that you have debited from my account without my knowledge & permission.

                    Thanks & regards,

                    Unsolicitated services being activated by Airtel on Mobile No. [protected] and amount is deducted from the balance without permission. Airtel is looting poor and helpless cunsumers. The act is akin to theft. The custromer care has been contacted several times but no relief. The day light robbery continues. The amount decuted is yet to be credited. Further, the ring tone provided without any request is so dirty that the same has cuased a lot of embarsement in the social circle.

                    Airtel — Unauthorised Amount Deduction from airtel prepaid account

                    Hi think, now a days airtel is the worst service provider in india....They cheat the customer a lot in any ways.
                    I just got an sms from airtel...saying that Airtel Radio has been renewed on my airtel mobile number and I have have been charged Rs 30.
                    That too when i did not put any request to activate the this service.
                    even when i call to 121, while transfering the call to customer care executive it says that dialed number does not exist. So I am not able to speak to customer care executive....
                    And why they are giving the customer care service, there is no use of customer care service if people are not ready to listen the customer complaints....

                    What to do.....i dont know...

                    Goverment has to take some action against these people......
                    They are cheating the people and making money.......

                    I would like to deactive the services of Jumaani_wap_sub subscription with immediate effect.

                    I have been charged Rs.30/- per month for the last three months (i.e. from April, 2010) for this service while I never subscribed for the same. The latest charges have been deducted on 12th June, 2010. I have been trying to contact your various offices on 198, 121 and once requested through 121 for deactivation of this service in the month of April, 2010 and received the confirmation message also. However, the same has not been stopped till date. Today we contacted your Airtel local Office at D.S. Enterprises, Acharya Niketen, Mayur Vihar, Phase I, Delhi, but they showed their inability to resolve the issue rather the Head of the Office was busy in some other business discussing the samples of watches with some salesman. He refused to disclose his name.

                    I would request you to deactivate the above services immediately and refund the amount charged to my mobile in the last 3 months.

                    Please reverse these Rs.119 (99+20) to my Airtel Mobile Number [protected]

                    Do it without any delay.

                    My mobile no is [protected] and have free GPRS activated (Promotional with purchase of Nokia N-8 Handset) that is still valid.
                    Since 25 Mar 2011 (till 31 Mar 2011) there have been deductions worth more than Rs 270 from my prepaid account.

                    Rs 198 for Javadownloads (WWELegendsofWrestlemania and ZombieAttack) that has not been downloaded by me or has it been downloaded on my mobile (25 Mar 2011). (Customer care call reference CBDL[protected])

                    Rs 3 cut for WCVideoPack subscription without my activation / request for same (SMS received for activation on 28 Mar 2011 at 2215 hrs.) Same activation and Rs 3 cut again on 29 Mar 2011 without my request. (Customer care call reference CBDCC[protected] and COLWP[protected])

                    On 30 Mar 2011 received an SMS thanking me for javagame download from airtel (No details of what game and why it got downloaded) and Rs 50 got deducted.

                    On 30 Mar 2011 received an SMS thanking me for downloading cricket pack from airtel (No details of what and why it got downloaded) and No details of what amount got deducted.

                    On 30 Mar 2011 received an SMS Tadkalive subscription from airtel and Rs 20 deducted.


                    Airtel live services are getting activated on their own and amount deducted from prepaid account. This is despite my calls to customer care three times since 25 Mar 2011. Every time there has been a promise of refund and deactivation of Airtel live services but the same thing happens the next day and some new service gets activated.

                    I have sent NOPROMO and LIVEDEACT SMS to 511on request from customercare but the same is still not taken into affect.

                    there is a service called jumaani_wap_sub which is deducting Rs 30 from my balance almost every month even when i haven't applied for this service.

                    i kindly request you to deactivate this service as earliest as possible and refund the money charged during this period.

                      You have not read the mchek FAQ. Itz clearly written that only master / visa credit cards are allowed and debit cards are not yet enabled.Please read all FAQs before registering with any product, and also if your query is not covered, then ask for helpdesk.Goodluck !
                      Few days back i called on Airtel Cust. care to ask tht, whther thr s any offer if i recharge through mchek. the executive told me that i[censored] recharge through mchek, on 255 u will get 355 talk time, but on recharging the same i only received 228 talk time. Complitely cheated. still my coplaint not resolved

                      First recharge for 301 full talk time offer, then i got the same in mobile. After some days I tried recharge another offer from air tel. At that time I got a message saying you can only recharge for 199 in this month. At the next level i got Rs 5 and my plan got changed. [ This is i dont want]. Later I complaint to both air tel and mecheck both people telling non sense talk. At last I asked help desk to change my plan (previous), but still they are not ready to change also. God knows what the hell the help desk for.

After 2 months I came to Dubai due to emergency I had to visit India after 3 months during that time I was trying to make an Outgoing Call it was not working. Then I called the customer care they are saying there is some technical issues which will be resolved in 3 working days. I visited India only for 4 days & i couldnt use my Airtel Sim card which has one year validity.

                      Is it is worth to buy such a Sim Card?

                      I hav recharge my airtel with 401 for mobile office through mcheck and still my mo service not activited. On calling cust. Care that useless fellow told me that u cannot recharge mo throuh mcheck...and they even give cash back...and i m getting sms that my recharge is sucessful...what the **** service is this...
                      i'm not able to add my debit card with mchek.
                      Please tell me how can i do it. when i add it the response comes "" you have entered invalid card information. please enter valid information. And my debit card is form SBI.
                      please solve my problem right now because i'm in lots of problems. Mobile no. is [protected].
                      The airtel postpaid customers are not given a fair bill. I did not touch the mobile for a week or two but my mobile bill was 150 (without monthly charges for which i paid 1000rs for the whole year). I simply do not understand how these people can charge me so much.
                      I am totally Dejected.
                      Jmtpjd
                      i did recharge through TATA DOCOMO for 50 / - it works well . but they give a transaction 5 times per month . looks funny mchek.
                      mcheck is useless as useless as customer care executivve in airtel.now they are charging 50p for 3 min on calling.simply cheating people
                      hiiiiiii
                      i recharge my mobile account at 500 in airtel, but give error in sbi online, give me solution
                      hello,

                      on 29th, march, 2010, i recharged 50rs thro mcheck . but i could not able to get the confirmation. before it I had to submit my card no. and password also. After submitting it I got a msg regarding unavailability of this service at the moment.after 10 min, i recharged again for the same, but i got the msg same. afer half an hour, again i recharged, i got the transaction. but bharthi airtel deducted the money for three transactions from my credit card.i contacted with airtel customer care, they cheating me. icici customer care, they send me a proof also for the three transactions. if you are not reply for me . i will send proof to consumer court. 50 rs, we have to sacrifice. in case even 500 rs also same problem means we could not able to sacrifice. i want a solid reason . now what i want to do.

                      M.Senthilnathan.
                      Dear All

                      I would like to sugest one thing that Online Rechargin with their company website of mobile currency is the best way.
                      Regards

                      Instead of complaining on this Forum It would be better idea to form a group through this form and forward a Petition to TRAI against AIRTEL. Also Since the Mchek facility is a financial payment system operated on Mobile, RBI should also be notified.
                      People, if you want to genuinely do something, lets do It. I am a legal researcher. We could pool in the money to meet the expenses like filing fees..Lets make Airtel aware that Customers can be empowered in this country.
                      Idly discussing these things on online websites and forums with other complainants and doing nothing substantial to assert your rights is so typical Indian. If we of the younger generation do not stand up and speak, take the right action We HAVE NO RIGHT TO BLAME THE SYSTEM OR CRAP ABOUT THE WAY THINGS ARE BEING DONE TO US. These things are done to us because WE ALLOW THESE PEOPLE LIKE AITEL TO DO IT TO US; WE LET THEM OF EASILY AND THEY KNOW THEY CAN CONTINUE TO DO THIS NONSENSE BECAUSE WE WILL LET THEM GET AWAY. TRAI has policies for protecting Customers' interests but they are not responsible for MAKING THE CUSTOMER USE THESE POLICIES TO PROTECT THEMSELVES.
                      Sorry for the forceful words and the caps, but I am trying to make a point. Even God helps only those who help themselves!

                      hi mcheck
                      airtel is just worst no gud tariff no cheaper cal rates no cheaper full talktimes only 222, 333 and new logo of airtel is just copy of vodafone no new english callertunes just coverage is good that's y ppl r using and they have many corporate customers so they dont care for normal customers
                      hi guys
                      u can use Mcheck onlu with some bank like HDFC, SCB, ICICI and that to only with visa cards
                      hi guys

                      Airtel — MCHECK IS NOT WORKING ON MNP NUMBERS

                      My number had been MNP from vodafone to airtel, but I'm not able to recharge my number from all of the on line recharge sites and not also with the mchek service provided by airtel.

                      so please do the needfull if you can on urgent basis, as it is useless i[censored] are not doing any thing.
                      In general, Airtel is horrible in Pune. It has severe connectivity issues which i have complained numerous times but in vain. Atleast i thought that i can use this Mcheck facility and that could be relieveing factor in having this horrible Airtel as my connection. But this Mcheck has been no use to me as such. I register for a mobile recharge and it says that my request has been processed and i dont any any message after that which means my mobile has not been recharged. And i end up in going to the shop and get it recharged. Now comes the worst part. After having this horrible experience with Airtel, i decided to use that Mobile number portability facility and port out my number to Idea. And then Airtel rejects my port out request. I am left with only one alternative. I will go to Consumer Court and teach them a lesson. I want to get compensated for all the losses i had with this connection

                          I was a costomer of your Airtel postpaid service.Unfortunately my phone falled in to the water and totally damaged . That time i had paid total due payment to the Airtel office at Shivalik nagar branch.This matter was 1 year older than why government notice come to me again & again, Just checked out the incoming call and outgoing call record from this number you definately get the proper news. So please check and mailed us what type of paymetn you asked from me.

                          Airtel Postpaid Card — Network conectivity problem

                          I am holding a post paid card with National roaming, Whenever I am out from Tamil nadu I am getting the no connectivity problem more frequently in a day. No response from Airtel service provider. I do not have other choise than going for the consumer court.

                            I am using mobile connection for the past 7 years. Switched to Airtel connection from 2004. Today on 16th Apr 10, I received an anonymous call from this number, [protected]. After picking this number, he started speaking some idiotic things and I was asking him "whoz this". I want to know from which network does this number belong to either it is from Airtel or some other before going to Police. I Hope you treat this seriously and give me details asap.

                                    I am a resident of Karam Singh Colony, Karnal, Haryana, India registered for an Airtel broadband connection on 20 Aug 2008 at relationship centre of Ambedkar Chowk, Karnal. But I have not received connection till now. On enquiring to relationship centre, I was told that there is a fault in the packet box of Karam Singh Colony, adjoining to Bank Colony. And there is no technical person to repair this box. I contacted to Airtel Haryana Customer Care. The Airtel Haryana Customer gave the time limit of 48 hours on 25 Aug 2008 but this time limit of 48 hours also expired and my phone was not installed.
                                    I reported the matter by emailing to Airtel Nodal Officer on 30 Aug. 2008. On 2 Sept 2008, I receive call from Nodal Officer stating that they cannot provide connection since there is a fault in pillar nearby Karam Singh Colony. She stated that this pillar can neither be repaired nor be replace. What a funny?
                                    I failed to understand!
                                    If gradually and gradually all the Airtel Pillars become faulty and
                                    Airtel is not able to get them repaired/replaced, then how Airtel will survive in the market.
