Address: Salem, Tamil Nadu

I was under a Datacard plan Rs.1250/ per month for 12.gb free data usage with 7.2mbps speed limit but the speed i received was worst which is just 15kbps for whole of the 2months i used. for one month i just used the datacard for 7days and they charged me Rs.44,000/= on that particular month bill and finally charged me Rs.5000plus saying that they are offering a discount for heavy usage. i dont know what is this rubbish statements. worst speed, wrong bill and above all a 3rd rated worst customer services. They initially confirmed me data usage is under the monthly plan limit so monthly bill is Rs.1250/ to be paid. but bill statement i received was Rs. 44000/ on discount it is Rs. 5000/-. Ridiculous even the nodal officers couldnt resolve in a proper procedural manner. Its better to sue the Airtel telecommunications providing datacard services especially. Anyone can help with this? kindly advice thanks.

airtel data card — worst worst service

Am srinivasa reddy ([protected]) from bangalore, i have purchessed airtel data card in the month of may 2008, at the time purchesing executive promised me about speed around more than 150bps but as of now am getting below 5bps and i raised the compaint regarding the aboue issue but i haven't get any solution from airtel. customer care responce is too thirdclass and disconnecting call.
my sincere advice dont go for airtel data card, even am loyal customer for airtel, am using airtel sim from past 6 years.

i[censored] have any doute u can call to my no .

Bharti Airtel — worst billing service

My uncle has an airtel connection no. they sent a wrong bill of over Rs. 6000 out of which Rs. 4637 was of isd calls made to italy. but no one has done calls and even the no. does not have isd calls facility .

airtel data card — Worst service ever I have seen

Its damn waste of taking Airtel data card service. That company shd be sued. Deceiving the customers.
My datacard doesn't even in the core of city Bangalore or any other big cities in India. Nobody cares abt compalint. I must have called 100 times to customer service, no one cares and didn't see a single response. Also, the connection doesn't even stay alive for 5 mins.

I wanted to cancel the service. Went to their office, they said can't cancel it their systems r not working. It pain in butt. No one even cares.

I strongly recommend not even think of Airtel datacard and don't suggest any one.
you are absolutely right. after purchase no one cares.
I, Neeraj kumar Verma ([protected]) from Allahabad, i have purchased airtel data card in the month of nov.2010, at the time purchasing executive promised me about speed around more than 7.2mbps but as of now am getting below 5kbps and i raised the complaint regarding the about issue but i haven't get any solution from airtel. customer care response is too third class and disconnecting call.
my sincere advice don't go for airtel data card, even am loyal customer for airtel, am using airtel sim from past 6 years.

Blackberry Pin : 29e8e3d7

The customer service of airtel is going worse day by day . I recharged My BBM PLAN of Rs 129 . I am not able to use my blackberry handset even after being charged for its services. I have lots of work which i have to complete using it which is all pending. I called the customer service of airtel more than 12 times @7070 Blackberry Helpline Number, they told me to wait for 24 hours, i waited, next day they told me the same and gave me a complaint number, its been more than 5 days now, even now when i called they said " Sir you haven't picked our call, now you have to get a new complaint number " . Such a pathetic customer service . I have to recharge 10 rs extra every day to call these frauds and launch a new complain . And wait 121? Please dont waste your time dialing this number . You'll follow the steps and thn a lady says " Hum apki call airtel adhikari ..." etc.. and then they will disconnect the call. You'll be frustrated . They compel us to abuse them . Now i cant even recharge another blackberry plan . It was huge mistake of choosing airtel . I regret it . Airtel i love your broadband service, but being such a loyal customer with u what do i get..??? such pathetic customer service is not expected.

    Prepaid connection:
    I have recharge Rs. 43/- to make calls per paisa per second on 12.03.12 and Trans ID is [protected]. But sometimes it deducts more than 60 paisa per minute as it was ealier tariff (original Tariff) and sometimes it deducts 60 paisa per minute. Means i am not getting the benefit of recharge of Rs. 43/-. Kindly look into the matter please.

        Sir,
        I am using Airtel prepaid service and my mobile number is [protected]. i have recharged my prepaid balance with Rs333 on 18 Jan 2012. also i have activated 2G internet with Rs19 of 100 MB for 3days internet package and used internet approx 1 hours which generally deducted around 10 MB. also i might have did hardly 3 local calls for less then 10 mins. on 19 Jan 2012 my mobile balance was completely finished and i was left with only Rs7 in my prepaid balance. when i called airtel customer care to know why they have deducted the balance, they have not answered my query and disconnected my call without resolving my issue. Request you to take some action against Airtel so that they return my balance.

        Hoping to get any kind of justice from you.

        Thanks
        Sunil.

        Hi Sunil,
        It is not a single case. I think, almost all customers face this issue. Think, how much money a service provider can loot if they follows it as a policy to
        every customer. Their advantage is the lack of an effective complaint mechanism. I posted in this forum 11 days ago. I got some soothing reply from airtel customer care. But no action taken. Everyday you can see a complaint against AIRTEL prepaid deducting balance unlawfully. See my complaints.

          Fraud by Airtel in GPRS 98 Pack
          Topic: Airtel Postpaid billing issue with gprs
          Name: Ramesh Kumar gopal
          Airtel No: [protected]
          Relationship No: [protected]
          Bill No:[protected]
          Bill Date: 07-Jan-2012
          Bill Period: 05-DEC-2011 to 04-JAN-2011

          I activated airtel gprs Rs 98 plan for free data usage upto 2 GB on 18th Dec, 2011.
          After activating it, I found out that a considerable amount was getting added onto my unbilled amount on next day.
          I called the customer care executive expressing my concern about this.
          They replied that there was no need to worry and that these amounts will get added on as unbilled amount but when the bill is generated only 98 rupees will be charged for internet if my data usage is within 2 GB.
          My credit limit is Rs. 1500.
          Now when the bill was generated at the end of the billing period, that is, on 06th January 2012, I was shocked to find it to be Rs. 22639.63
          The amount on account of my call usage charges and bill period charges was around Rs 147, and the rest was all internet charges.
          On scrutinizing my bill and calling the customer care executive I got to know that internet browsing through airtelgprs.com was covered under the plan I activated and that browsing through WAP_ALL (Airtel Live) was to be charged(Which was never told by customer care executive when I taken the Rs 98 GPRS plan).
          But my point is that my credit Limit is Rs 1500, so airtel should have intimated me when I crossed it. Instead they waited for the entire month for me to accumulate more and more Data charges and slapped this bill of Rs 22639.63
          on my face. The normal data charges are Rs 20kb/30paise. So if I would have thought of spending my entire 2 GB usage, my bill would have been around Rs 31000.
          The Customer care executive, who clarified my bill details, transferred the call to her floor manager. On telling the floor manager that as my credit Limit is Rs 1500 why should I get a bill of Rs 22639.63
          and explaining him gprs usages, he offered to waive my bill that if I pay Rs.7000 they'll clear the remaining amount but I'm not ready to pay that also.
          The people who are from the collection department keep calling my friends and relatives numbers from my itemised bill and tell them about the bill amount and try to threaten and trying to spoil my reputation.
          They don't have rights to open my bill and get the numbers and calling them ask for the bill amount.
          I have called the nodal officer and told about the issue and their ilegal activity of the collection department.
          Today morning I went to an customer relationship office and call the customer service centre and offer my connection surrender of my two Airttel postpaid numbers and subsequently the executive called me and ask the reason of why I moving from airtel.I explained her everything and she told that the nodal officer will call me soon.
          I'll go to consumer court for this issue.
          Airtel does not have rights to open my bill before the bill due date and call the people who are called by me from my mobile number.
          They are voilationg the privacy act and I'm going to give a complaint to Cyber crime devision also.

            Hi,

            I am a customer of Airtel prepaid mobile for a long time. For 1 year, airtel has been forcing unwanted services on my mobile and deducting my balance. I have complained to their customer care several times, but this practice is repeated even nowadays. I am visiting foreign countries for the time being with international roaming activated and with enough balance to account for any emergency calls. But due to their mischievous activity I lost a huge balance. This is day robbing. I had posted about this incident in the same forum and got reply from somebody claiming as AIRTEL customer executive. But no action taken so far. This is fooling the customers.

            Some timeline of AIRTEL's planned robbery on me
            1) Previously, AIRTEL customer care/automated number used to call to my number and ask me to press xxx number for their yyy service. Then I had the option to not to opt for the service.
            2) Later, they used to call to my mobile from some random number and if I accidentally pick the call, they used to activate some service. When I talked to their customer care executive, she was telling me that I had opted for the service. Poor me, what to do?I didn't have any idea.
            3) Again later, when I went abroad, they used to call me. Even if I didn't attend the call, they used to activate some service. I came to know that by dialling *121# I will be able to see and cancel the service. I cancelled many such services which they had activated in my mobile to loot me.
            4) They began activating unwanted serviced very frequently in my mobile in a competitive spirit. Don't know their customer executive gets some award for this. I used to view and cancel it whenever I notice it.
            5) Again they changed the strategy. They activated some services. When I tried to view the service using *121#, they will show a status as something like "Kindly note that there are no services active on your mobile". But there will be some messages coming to my mobile in the name of some particular service and my money would have gone. I would be able to cancel this service only after quite a long time only, if I tried continuously.
            At this point I sent an SMS to their customer care number 121, which is believed to be a toll free number. I did it from UK. I lost Rs.50 for the sms, which I sent to complain about their looting.

            I would like to ask just one question. Do AIRTEL see me as an enemy instead of a customer?. Is it a war between team AIRTEL v/s people of the nation?

            AirTel — Looting of balance

            Hi
            I am a consumer of airtel prepaid mobile service (mobile no. [protected] ). Airtel is deducting balance of my mobile without my knowledge . I complained about this on customer care services and refund of my money (complaint code CMOUC[protected] ) .they insisted me of action but still I do not got my money .And even still with out calling i'm deducted 30ps every 2min even now.
            And i also recherged for Rs.34 on 27th Jan 2011 for Mobile office usage but the balance is not credited and also if i use the internet the amount is directly deducted from my main balance
            Why is airtel looting customers without their knowledge? Hoping for action.
            I am a customer of Airtel prepaid mobile for a long time. For 1 year, airtel has been forcing unwanted services on my mobile and deducting my balance. They, without asking activates some services on my mobile some times as a reason for this. I have complained to their customer care several times, but this practice is repeated even nowadays. I am visiting UK for the time being with international roaming activated and with enough balance to account for any emergency calls. But due to their mischievous activity I lost a huge balance. This is day robbing. How can a normal customer like me get justice? Could you please help or advice?
            We need to stop this RObbery at any cost.Must sue them for this.
            I am fed up complaining about the same Issue.
            The number and generic nature of incidents indicates it is a well planned policy of AIRTEL. This is pure arrogance from AIRTEL and clear threat to the consumers.
            What is the legal way to resolve these kind of law breaking? Any ideas are highly welcomed.
            Dear sir
            my name is dinesh and my airtel number is [protected] i want to cancel my air tell number
            The following are also similar complaints about AIRTEL within a day. This indicates they are doing this robbery as a policy

            Hi Rakesh,

            Thanks for your reply. I have updated the details in the site www.airtel.in/needhelp. At present I am in UK and if I pick up the call, as you would know, it will cost me Rs 100 per min. Please contact me in the mail id '[protected]@yahoo.com'. This issue is not a single one I had faced. I faced it several times and even complained to customer care. They had agreed not to repeat, but still continued activating services without requesting. Later I used to check the subscription with *121# and stopping it as soon as I notice. But, in total I lost a lot of account balance. Since, I am in UK, I have been maintaining some good balance of around Rs 600 in my mobile for emergency needs. Then they started deducting that. Whenever I stop it, they started activating again in a competitive spirit. This is not at all appreciable by a customer. Recently I lost around Rs 200 all of a sudden and when I sent an sms to 121(customer care) from UK, Iost Rs. 50 again. Even after this, they continued activating service. Now the activated service won't be visible as soon as it is activated. By the time, I am able to see the activated service, my balance would have deducted again. Why do you make us suffer so much, just because we have subscribed for your service?

            Best Regards
            Sudeep R K
            There is no action taken on my complaint other than a customer service executive named Rakesh(can be seen in this comment chain) responded by posting a comment. The comment is given its value. But my complaints remains unresolved and unattended. Rakesh, if you respond like this, in future people may not believe on your comments. Be responsible for what you commit.
            I would like to offer a gentle reminder that this complaint remain unresolved after 11 days.
            15 days after complaint registered, yet no action!!!

            I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THIS NUMBER BUT THERE IS NO ONE SPEAK FROM OTHER SIDE.

            I HAVE PREPAID CONNECTION AND MY MOBILE BALANCE IS AUTOMATICALLY DEDUCT
            Same here..whenever i call airtel customer care they argue always that i activated the services and in spite of repeatedly stopping all the services they continue to deduct money and still argue that we activated the service. when we speak up then the customer care representatives disconnect the call...such horrible people...cant believe brand like airtel cant resort to such cheap gestures towards its customers...Ashok
            It is observed that the AIRTEL customer care Guy Rakesh deleted his comments from my post. What a stinky looting and irresponsibility. God save you AIRTEL and Rakesh.
            I observed the number of comments on this post as '-1' ? What is the concept of '-1' comments? Joke of the day. Is this the way the comments in this forum are handled. Feel pity.
            Do they really think, they can go forward cheating all the people like this?
            Even after 1 month no resolution to this complaint. Even AIRTEL has withdrawn their reply. What is the meaning of all these?

            Best Regards

              I have a pre-paid mobile connection provided by Airtel. The service provider has activated Gyan Sagar service on my mobile connection and debited Rs.30/- even when I did not ask for its activation. It is unfair by the service to activate any service without consumer asking for it. It has become the practice by companies to activiate similar services and they make huge money from unsuspecting customers. This is a fraud. Subsequently, I lodged a complaint with the customer care centre and it was deactivated. However, consumers should not be subjected to this type of harassment. Service providers should be stopped from charging any service without a valid request.
              Same thing has happened with me. They even do not provide code for deactivation.They should be tried in court for that.

                I must say the new application you guys have developed is really sick, "may I help you?" section is a total waste, you can not actually submit a request in raise request section! It doesn't do anything while you click on the Submit button.

                Please initiate the refund, please, I guess "5 working days" time is now over.

                rechargeitnow.com zindabad, I have always received the topup within 30 seconds after the payment is done. Even sometimes, I get topup message in my mobile seconds before it shows "recharge successful" page in my computer screen!

                  I have purchased a new airtel connection( airtel race pack @ 99 Mob No. [protected] ), in which i got RS 80 TT, a2a @ 30p/min & free 200 MB 2G services data download . After activation, my balance was RS. 80, when i started browsing within a 5-10 minutes, balance got deducted which is of RS 70 change. I put query to customer care & they gave me assurance they will come to me with solutions but they didn't. Also I am daily trying to call CC but there is no response.

                  If I activate 2G data plan & again if balance will get deduct from main balance then same types of followups to do with no result. So please come back to me on my number specified & give solution to use airtel service. I bought this connection for DATA usage specially if this is happening then this is useless for me.

                    Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

                    I'm an airtel landline subscriber[protected] and I have opted for 599 plan (voice plan) in which my registered airtel prepaid mobile number (+91-[protected]) would be getting a talktime of Rs. 100 every month.

                    For January month, the bill got generated on 11-Jan-2012 and I paid the bill on 12-Jan-2012. But, till now, I have not received the talktime of Rs. 100 that should have been credited to my airtel prepaid mobile number +91-[protected].

                    When I called up the airtel landline customer care, they are giving cooked stories that on 14-Jan-2012, the amount has been credited into my airtel prepaid mobile account (using the transaction number: P[protected]) and they are not responsible for anything after that.

                    I found that the amount has not been credited to my airtel prepaid mobile account till now. I have not got Rs. 100 talktime for the January month.

                    Please rectify this and credit the talktime at the earliest, in order to have customer's continued patronage or else, I will resort to my own ways of getting the talktime credited to my airtel prepaid mobile account.

                      Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

                      Hello,

                      We have had 2 airtel mobile connections since June 2011. I have on my connection had issues almost every month either issues with billing/internet access/something else. This month, the issue is just the limit of my tolerance. On the 12th of January 2012, per usual I received an e-bill, which I assumed to be the e-bill for my mobile number. However, on opening the document, I found that the bill was for someone else. In effect, I have that person's bill including their airtel account number, mobile number, call log, last payment due and current month bill details. This means that someone else now has the same for my mobile number. I find that extremely disturbing. Additionally, of course, the actual amount due for my mobile number is a different amount. When I log in to my online airtel account, I see some number as due on the 31st, but that number is half what my usual amount due is. So, I have several concerns -

                      1. Why was I sent someone else's bill and who got my bill?
                      2. The variance in the bill amounts between months - I have no way of verifying this currently as I still have not received a physical copy of my bill
                      3. I called airtel multiple times. The customer service agent is extremely uncomfortable in english and just keeps repeating what I say, but misinterpreting my request.
                      4. When I ask to be transferred to a manager, the person puts me on hold for several MINUTES and then just hangs up, REALLY bad customer service
                      5. Noone from airtel, so far, has actually been able to answer why I was sent another person's bill, a text with that person's amount due for Jan 2012 as well as the password to open their ebill (their account number)

                      Can someone please contact me at [protected]@yahoo.com to resolve this ASAP? Otherwise, I will have no option but to approach the consumer court.

                      Regards,

                      Airtel/Mobile Services — Deactivation not done Mobile Number: 9987007452 (Mumbai)

                      Dear Sir/Madam,

                      I have requested the Airtel Customer Care to Deactivate my mobile many a times but nothing has happened as yet. They are not deactivating and continously the Billing Cycles are generated and I am made to pay the Bill amount.

                      Whenever I try to call the Call Center after paying the bill it gives an message as Invalid Number. Already I have paid the outstanding amount of Rs. 750 and today when I called they are telling me that another billing cycle has been done and I need to pay another Rs. 483 on that.

                      They have activated another Billing Plan without asking me. How come they do that.

                      I opted out of Airtel because of bad coverage from their end. Please help me out.

                      Best Regards,
                      Ravi Shanker

                        Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

                        Dear Sir,

                        I am from Chennai.
                        Had put a simple telephone and broadband shifting request from one area to another, within the city.
                        This request was not processed for 25 odd days despite several follow-ups.
                        Being depressed and unhappy, i had put a cancellation request on 25-Nov-2011, which was happily accepted by the team and i received a mail confirming that my outstanding was 766. I paid the amount immediately and was hoping that my landline would get cancelled.

                        To my surprise, this did not happen and i received new bill by december...and then in Jan'12.

                        I have been repeatedly sending mails to [protected]@airtel.in with various mails and transction numbers, but they are not doing anything about it.

                        Today, i got a call, stating that i will receive a legal notice for not paying some amount. This is supposed to be airtel guys mistake...Why should i pay for it...

                        Regards,

                          I have not been receiving the e-bills since the last 3 months. I do not get to know my billed amount unless the due date passes and the customer care people start giving me reminder calls. By then, the late payment charges are already applied.
                          Last months bill was deposited in their billing center and I have the receipt with me. Even then, I see a late payment charge and last months bill added to my outstanding bill amount. They are applying late payment charges again and again. Its pathetic. They are charging unnecessarily and incorrectly. I have complained a number of times but nothing is helping. The bills are not being received and they are adding late payments.

                            Hi

                            I used AIRTEL netconnect number:[protected] , I got a wrong bill for billing cycle 5th dec 2011 to 5th jan 2012 showing data usages of about Rs28251( after some deduction have to pay Rs 4412) , I am in a plan of Rs 750 per month and using netconnect in the same trend I used earlier I don't know how data usages can exceed and i got a wrong bill , i can see logs at the time when I am in office and not at all using . Even if it exceeded there can be slight variation but this is impossible. Even from customer support got response like it is system generated, but what if I didn't used ,why should i pay a wrong bill because it is reflecting in their system . And 2nd thing without intimation Airtel discoonected my service on 12/01/2012 .On sending mail to nodal officer got the same reply that I need to pay, I didn't want this reply i need proper response and I want to stress on the fact that though it's a corporate plan, I am using it for domestic(personal) usage and I keep track of my data usage, so I don't want to pay for wrong bill. Please advice.Waiting for your response. I seek cooperation on above issue.

                            I being the subscriber to your airtel internet connection got transferred the connection from my residence C-1454 Indira Nagar to 28 B Brahmpuri Indira Nagar Lucknow.
                            The connection (28 B, Brahmpuri) was installed by your company on 05.02.10 and the connection was disconnected (C-1454 Indira Nagar) in October 2009.
                            I was assured by your sales manager and the call centre that the transferred with the monthly rental of Rs.250.00 with no Extra/other charges.
                            A bill no.[protected] has been raised by your Esteemed company for the billing period 17.12.09 to 16.01.2010 of Rs. 1196.00 which is false as no connection was installed till 04.02.10 and NIL DSL Usage charges and Call and VAS charges has been shown in your bill itself.
                            In this respect I want to state no BILL shall be paid by me until you get the bill corrected immediately till then kindly disconnect the internet connection if you want.The payment of the bill shall be for the usage made after 04.02.10.
                            The lapse of disconnection shall be on your part not mines. First correct the bill then install the connection, no fake payment shall be made.

                                Good Evening All,

                                I am Airtel User and platinum customer mobile customer. On July I was moving apartments and had put in a transfer request on the 13th Of July. I recieved a call from the Customer Care executive the next day stating I had to submit some documents. After going to and fro with them on this issue for a couple of days about what docs will server the purpose as valid for my transfer I did not hear from someone for a few weeks. Then I got a call in September where the Airtel Executive asked me why my data usage was non-existent. When I tild them that the reason was that I have put in a transfer request and it is unsettling that I have recieived this call, he said that my status in the "system" said that the transfer cannot be made. So I said in that case then put in a transfer request. a week later again I got a call about my outstanding where the executive said there is no transfer or cancellation request. I again told them to do the needful. And I made it abudantly clear that as I had put in transfer in July I would pay for that billing cycle beyond that I airtel is not able to provide transfer service to me so I will not pay anything beyond July. I was assured that I had to pay the outstanding and F&F will be delivered to me soon. An executive came and picked up what I was told was the F&F amount.

                                Few days later someone came and picked all my telephone equipment. And I expected the matter to be closed. Now I am getting calls that as the next had been generated so I will need to pay. I have repeatedly told the executives about my predicment where I have been told they will get back to me. Now few days back I saw a tweet from airtel about reconnecting with existing customers. Now I know the methods.

                                Today this guy calls me up tells me that "meri aukat nahi hai" to pay the bill. Wants to talk to mother and tell her that her son is a coward and other such good stuff. Excellent Airtel, This is how you win minds of heart of existing customer. I am "platinum" Airtel Customer for my Cell phone usage. I am seriously thinking about MNP. I would like to know how I should deal with this nonsense.

                                Regards,
                                Nipun

                                  Following is my first email to Airtel stating the issue. Dated 27/12/11. Read below for reply.

                                  Hi

                                  I am an old, loyal, premium customer of Airtel Services for over 12
                                  years. I have been using all 3 services(Triple play) - DTH, Broadband
                                  and Mobile for sometime now, and all is to my complete satisfaction. I
                                  am moving to a new address which is a newly constructed high rise
                                  building (with about 9 stories - 160 premium flats) that has an
                                  exclusive tie-up with Airtel for its internet broadband and DTH services
                                  for entire premises (All the wirings are in-built). These two services
                                  are being taken care of very well and are being activated very promptly
                                  by the staff on duty. But due to some reason, Airtel mobile signal on
                                  any floor is very weak and disappointing (notably Idea, Aircel and
                                  Vodaphone customers have got good signals). We (the whole society) have
                                  repeatedly requested for an Airtel mobile signal booster ( as most o[censored]s
                                  are happy with the service operator and would not like to switch the
                                  operator) but the concerned dealer is asking for an unfair guarantee of
                                  atleast 50 new airtel activations before he processes the signal booster
                                  request.

                                  Please guide us on how best to tackle this situation. The complete
                                  address is mentioned below.

                                    I am using AirTel from a long time. And Not even once I noticed such bad service. On 16th January, 2012 around 6:15pm all my services were barred. Neither Outgoing nor Incoming Calls worked. I called up 198 from a different number and the asked me to wait for 4hrs as it was a network failure, and it occurred only on a few numbers. I assumed it to be true. Nothing helped. Next day, I called up 198 regarding the same continuing problem. I was informed that my documents to the number did not reach Airtel Head Office and so my no. was deactivated. Same day around 6pm I visited Airtel Support centre, Darya Ganj, Delhi. I submitted the documents again... Filled another form that had to go along with the documents. All the work was done and my SIM was checked. I was assured of its working conditions in next 24 hours. Its the 4th day today. Same problem... No Help. I called up 198 again and I was kept on Hold meanwhile they were transferring my call to their Head Supervisor. And the call is Cut down abruptly. I again call 198 tell the whole story to them one after the other so many times and again a never ending HOLD. then suddenly I get a call from some guy from Airtel on my other no. asking me for a local contact no. I give him my friend's no. and tell him the inconvenience that i was facing. He simply says... "I didn't know about that" and shuts the phone on my face. This is BAD. I am highly disappointed. This has turned out to be an INSULT to me... A four day story that finally leads to my Insult.
                                    Hi

                                    My name is Mayank Aggarwal and i am a good old customer of your company.Yesterday I called up your customer care to know my PUK number.I dont remember the name of the agent who took my call but he gave me 71788121 as my PUK number i tried that number few time but it was not accepted by my mobile. So i called up again to know about the PUK number and the other agent gave me a new PUK number that is 70788121. I tried the same again for few time and now my sim was rejected.I called up the customer care again and spoke to the supervisors Amit, Mahesh many other I also spoke to a manager name Mayank but all of them were of no use and rather they dont even know what customer service is. They told me that they would check the Voice log and would give me a call in 24 hours which i am still waiting for. Today when i called up my call was dropped many times and each and every time i was told that my call is transfered to the manager and then the call was disconnected.
                                    My only issue is if your agent gave me wrong information why should i be penalised
                                    Hi,
                                    This is in regards to my airtel postpaid no. [protected], my
                                    outgoing was barred without any notice for which I can't even call 121 or
                                    [protected]. This is not for the first time it happened, it happened so many
                                    times with my existing no. [protected] as well. I am fed up with the bad
                                    customer service at Airtel. I must take some actions now.

                                    Few things that usually happens:

                                    1)Poor cust support.
                                    2) Will provide misleading info on issues raised
                                    3) Arrogant reply from CSR
                                    4) No escalations method on unresolved issues.
                                    5) No dead lines on resolving problems
                                    6) Customer has to live on their mercy

                                    I, ?infact don't expect common sense with the customer care guys.
                                    (sometimes you must not even expect a resolution.. very often they close
                                    calls, a lot of them, indirectly saying it is not possible to correct it).

                                    Once, I got very irritated with the way the courier service airtel uses,
                                    throws my airtel bills on the lawn... and make me go searching and pick it.
                                    Ignorant at their best.. they mean they are very busy and can't bother to
                                    insert it into your letter box sticking on your gate.I was out picking my
                                    bills again, or worser, the stupid person delivered my bills in somebody's
                                    house, and somebody's bill in my house. I went back to them, the customer
                                    service people, and asked them to change the options to email my bills..
                                    they simply advised me to do it on-line at their website... though i had
                                    taken the time to call, they wanted me to first try it there.

                                    I did try... Airtel website rocks.. rocks the negative way.
                                    Nothing will work, and all information they provide regarding help
                                    documents or contact emails, will all point to the same intelligent
                                    thing... "the customer service team". The website will ask you to email
                                    complaints to [protected]@airtel.in, or something like that.

                                    After facing such issues, i would strongly recommend against airtel
                                    postpaid connections as the customer has absolutely no control on his
                                    number. They connect and disconnect at their own discretion and errors.
                                    Also no warning is issued prior to disabling the number. The customer care
                                    officials are also no help as they are only apologizing most of the times
                                    which does not help much.

                                    And another facet proves that Airtel is striving hard to reach 6-sigma
                                    level when it is about call management - all the shift managers are always
                                    busy, and all my calls are "accidentally" cut after me waiting on hold for
                                    10+ minutes, waiting to talk to someone after being put on hold.
                                    Getting to speak to a customer support service engineer in Airtel is real
                                    pain. Why don't Airtel implement simple to use telephone customer service
                                    ?
                                    I need to navigate those annoying recursive menus. There is no one menu
                                    which leads me to person. I really don't know how I was able to speak to
                                    a person after spending thirty minutes on the phone. The funny part was,
                                    the support person is unable to tell me a way to reach her directly,
                                    according to her if I wish to talk to a person, I have to go through this
                                    enormous pain.

                                    If I don't get an satisfactory and an immediate response, I challenge
                                    "Airtel" - I'll bring the same in front of consumer court as well e-mail to
                                    all the corporates and individuals who use the Airtel connection.

                                    I Am using the Airtel Mobile for the past 6-7 years, & one month back i have converted my Biling plan to prepaid, since then i m facing a problem of network, thus i have also visited the Airtel Gallary(from where i have converted my plan - Dadar East) 13 times but still they are unable to solve my problem. I have also tried to take help from Call centre but there is also no revert. One of the reply recd from the executive Mr Anand Gaikwad (Dadar East) that your phone is not compatible with Airtel connection. before this specifications mobile phone is :
                                    Make & model : Sony Erricsson P1i (Blackberry enabled)
                                    Price : 18500/=
                                    As per the executive Mr Anand Gaikwad it means the airtel connection in not compatible with the most highend mobile, then howcome anyone can rely on them.
                                    I have aslo treid another airtel no. on my same phone, it was working fine. then howcome my number is not working.
                                    Request you to pls consider my complaint & do the needful.

                                    Note : Customer service is always their for providing solutions for customers problem, but here in Dadar East Gallery (Airtel) i have experienced that they Airtel service centre are not resolving the problem, but they are tring to get rid of the customers without resolving there problem.

                                    Regards

                                    I tried to Airtel customer service and they put me on hold for at least 15 minutes. This is a real pathetic state of affairs. Is it because I am on pre paid? Do post paid users get more preference in Airtel? Of course I know the company staff would deny this. But generally is this what other users have experienced, I would love to know.
                                    Hi,

                                    This is anand here. We have a airtel connection from past 2 months, we applied for a wi-fi router and we are calling the customer care from past 2 months that when we are going to get the router. They are just playing with customer and spoiling the right assigned to the customer.

                                    From your end we want some action to be taken.

                                    Thanks and regards
                                    Anand

                                    I am using your prepaid connection from last 2 years, but now i am facing lots of problem from your callcenter team .They unable to resolved my problem & put me in a hold. I am waiting for a long time then disconnect the line .After this i call several times but same thing is hapen .
                                    If any one read this complain please resolve my problem.
                                    I wanted to get my prepaid connection converted to postpaid. I went to customer care center at Sahara Mall gurgaon.I took the token from token machine and started waiting for my turn. After waiting for 45 min when I could not see my number reflecting on the token reflector box. I went to one of the 5 customer care executive sitting there and asked them about the executive who will be helping me with all realted infomation, I came to know that the concerned executive has already left.It was so disgusting.Unnecessary wastage of time.
                                    Is it really a cutomer care center ?
                                    Isn't there responsibilty to stop giving the token of the particular counter if the executive has already left.
                                    I spent pretty much 3-4 hours in the office of Airtels service centre trying to fix one little thing, the SMS text messages they say I signed up for and which I pay for. In the time I was there 90% of the people coming in had the same problem.

                                    The 121 service simply does not work and is not designed to work. It is a con, illegal in most places and they know it. They are also completely incompetent.

                                    Much as I am sure they are one of the biggest providers in Asia the way they got this way was no doubt to pass a few bucks to some politicians to grow all the while crapping over the customers.
                                    Hello,

                                    I am Seema Naim an Airtel user, My cell no. is [protected]. I'm having a complain for Airtel. I received one message from Airtel "Listen Sonu Nigam for free", then after a while I received a message that it has been activated on your cell phone, I have not listen the voice message which was been sended. My balance was reducted. When I contacted Airtel, they didn't picked up my call. So I contacted Airtel officer, they said you will get your money back within 24 hours and will be contacted to customer service. But I waited for 48 hours, but nothing took place. So I request you to get my money back to me!
                                    ye to hona hi tha i have a solution but give only cell phone or via email address
                                    Hi

                                    There have been multiple complaints which i have registered with Airtel, complaining about Broadband not working (Please refer to the account notes, whhich i had requested respective customer care agents to document on my account, while calling Customer Service)

                                    Finally last Sunday a gentlemen visited, stating that their is a wiring issue and that he cannot tell me exactly which wire is improperly set within my aprtments premises, to which he responded "THAT AIRTEL DOES NOT HAVE THE EXPERTISE TO TELL ME THAT AND THAT AIRTEL AS A COMPLAINT CANNOT HELP ME IN THIS", when i requested this gentlemen (the field agent's boss) to document this for me on a mail HE REFUSED and said he will not do that.

                                    I requested him multiple times to send that to me writing so that i can take it further with teh complaints team , HE REFUSED.His name is Mr. Manoj and was a Back Office Officer as told by the field agent.

                                    I have failed to get my problem resolved as the usage of my internet services has degraded due to intermittent "connectivity failures", i login after every 12-15 inutes it completely stops, the data link light on my Modem goes out and nothing works.

                                    I have reported this atleast 7-8 time, hope all calls are recorded.

                                    I hereby request AIRTEL to please listen to those calls and please explain me that if i am paying high to get the BEST OF SERVICES FROM THE BEST IN THE MARKET BROADBAND SERVICE COMPANY, am i as a customer should be treated the way i have been.

                                    Request you to please provide me with a documented action on this complaint, post which i will take it further.

                                    P.S - I have spoken to many supervisors, the last thing i expect at this stage is another supervisor calling me with no resolution, please ensure i have someone senior calling with a professional explanation about the situation.

                                    Airel has got one of the worst customer service. I was recently treated very shabbily. Infact humiliated by them. I would recommend no one to buy any Airtel product. Pls go for Vodafone or Idea. There customers get treated by humans unlike Airtel where we are just another number.
                                    Hi,
                                    This is Koustav Roy. I have 5 Airtel Connection in My Family numbers are :-[protected],[protected],[protected],[protected],[protected],[protected]. And i had face problem in my [protected] number that frequently it says "SWITCH OFF" While I try to call this number. For that I had change my handset but the result is same. I have good coverage and also not able to receive any SMS from any operator. And my Dad Rakha Hari Roy is use [protected] Number. The number is registered for DND and then also Some Tips pack hadbeen activate on that number and Balance is deducted from His account. Where he does not know anything about that, And due to these reason while i try to call 198 that was my pathetic Experiance for my life to ever call to any Help line Number. Still i cant believe that Airtel is provided this type of customer service? Shame on your Service Shame. The Executive name Tanmoy. Sarol Dev Mondal. Moumite and many more are disconnected my call every time and I tried to call from first three Number to 198 after 10 times i does not get any proper resolution rather than Disconnect the call every time. Then i need to call from my Land line then also i does not get any resolution rather than Disconnect.

                                    So here is my First question:- Will i get any resolution for that same? Why my call had been disconnected? Why you guys are not take any responcibilities for solving the issue?

                                    Every call is recorded to my device also and i launched a Complain in Consumer Forum india.com with the attachment of Bluddy Airtel customer service. And now i decided to leave this service. I already sent SMS to 1909 from [protected] for change the operator and i will change every Number from Airtel. Today i am going to send this mail every where with all attachment to know that your executive service. Nobody is responcible in Airtel not Nodal Officer also.

                                    Previous also i send a mail that i want to change my number from reliance to Airtel Number was [protected]. For that i filled up form and did the all requirement But you guys do not help me out for the same. I wrote a mail to Nodul Office as well as 121 But the result is same no Responce from your end. Really its a Horrible service has been provided by you. I does not wrote you this mail for proper resolution I know that you are not able to provided. I just Inform you what happens in your Service. Bluddy Service. Shame on Airtel.
                                    Rakesh Ranga its too much time you are taking to solve the issue. I want the proper resolution form my issue, are you able to solve the issue or not. Still i am facing the same problem, After launching the complaint here your concern team revert me a mail for some details but before 7 days ago I send all of my details that you needed but no body is return me still, So here I want to tell you that if you are not able to solve the issue inform me that you cant solve it I will do the needfull what I need to do. When you responce me that time I want resolution.
                                    Qrc#[protected] and Mobile number: [protected]. I had a post paid connection with Airtel under my name which I gifted to my brother. He gave his mobile to one of his best friend who misused it and the bill amount was over Rs. 2500. I know that I am responsible for this payment but the actual issue is when I tooK this connection, I asked and I was assured that the credit on this number will not be increased more than Rs. 500 both by the 121 customer service and a lady at the M.G Road airtel branch. I was happy and I was very much sure that the monthly bill will not exceed more than Rs. 500. Back in May 2011 I ask the gentleman in M. G Road branch to cancel the number when the bill was Rs. 804 something. He refused to cancel the number and asked me to make the full payment. I argued with him that I will pay only Rs. 500 and the remaining Rs. 300 something need to waived. Because I asked airtel not to increase the credit more than Rs. 500. In one word, he refused to accept my request. I came back to UAE and my brother said his friend will use my connection. I told him to pay the bill in time and close the connection but his friend agreed to pay the bill and use my connection. I said OK and then he did not make the payment and finally the number was disconnected for due payment and I was asked to pay Rs. 2500+. I am not going to pay this bill simply because Airtel failed to keep its promise. From 08-Oct-2011 till date I have exchanged numerous mails with airtel customer service, all of them are useless. They dont read my mails, no english, No common sense in the responses all of them are automated..Can't believe Airtel such a reputed company has such a weak/disappointing customer service..Shame
                                    Very Disappointed X-Airtel customer
                                    Roshan
                                    Have been calling Airtel CS to help active my 3G from yesterday and no one can help me with the BB service...Every time i call for assistance's they say to call some else and give me other # to call...Airtel have poor customer service knowledge and is not very help...One person put me on hold and disconnected the call other person said she will put me to the supervisor and then hung up. I have had Airtel service for a long and since no one can help me at this time i have decided to change my provider to someone else...

                                      I have taken broadband connection accnt No:[protected] around 4 months back. I know I much I have used and the time o[censored]sage but airtel people did generate a bill of 22500 presenting heavy usage but the time o[censored]sage that they present is not feasible as that is during day time i.e. during my office hours and early morning when I am sleeping that is between 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. The airtel people have did a scam at their end and want me to pay when I havnt used that much amount. all I use with broadband is facebook and one CL site and NOTHING ELSE and these two cannot raise the bill to that level. 22500 is not so less amount that I will pay and obviously why should I when I havnt used it.

                                      Complaint marked as Resolved 

                                      AirTel — create the bill whatever they like.

                                      connection from Airtel. Number [protected]

                                      1) Have taken a SMS Plan of 99 rupess wherein I can use up to 500 of sms per day
                                      and i have the plain of 199 Airtel advantage sms rate - 0.50 to Airtel to airtel and nation and to others also the same.

                                      but the think is if i send beyound the 500 sms then they charged me ruppee 1 for per sms. and accourding to my bill plain it should be 0.05 paise for per sms.
                                      Should not these charges be told to the customers in advance? If they have not, then its a communication failure. and no way a customer should pay for it.

                                      they have created my bill of 2253/- of a month. and when i call to customer serives they disconnect my call..

                                      airtel is a faud. he cheated me a lot.
                                      airtel S**ks..
                                      they dont provide us any correct information..
                                      every time we call to customer center they provide us different different information to us.


                                      When talked to Customer Support, they seem to be more rude than i was conveying my issue. Absolutely pahtetic treatment.


                                      Sad that a company like airtel is spending crores on marketing than spending on basic issyue redrassal/ service. I feel like disconnecting the 5 connection today itself and not paying them my last settlement till i get a valid response from them.

                                      Its ironic because, I am myself part of procurement team of my organization and my peers negotiate with Telecom Vendors for rates/service/corp connection. I wish i could do more and get them Black Listed from my org with more than 1 lacs ppl.

                                      If you are in Sultanpalya Area avoid airtel like the plague. They took 2313 rs without giving service for it. by first saying that my router was gone and it is out of warranty period and i had to buy a new one .i Spent 2900 on it and then same issue of speed persisted. They said it was because technically i cant have 8 MBPS there and the representative said airtel sales people make whatever promise they wan and they sell. we can give you 4 mbps i asked them to change it then they said 2mpbs i again asked them to change it . then also the speed was pathetic.

                                      I called cancellation they said we will give you router reimbursement of 1200 and will ensure 4mbps speed and will waive of one month bill but they did not. I cancelled the connection.

                                      They never sent me a notice in bangalore and asked me to come to delhi court with a person named radhikamehra.[protected]@gmail.com mobile no [protected].

                                      Airtel seems to be really going down the wrong path and looks like they are really into all the scams and guilty of what they have been charged with.
