Airtel — Spreading Misinformation about Broadband Connection

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

I purchased an internet plan from Airtel on 28th March 2013. The person of contact, Arun, told me that if I pay 3 months advance sum, I'll get to use the wifi router for free, to which I agreed and paid the amount of[protected]p.m. for 4mbps-40GB plan). While taking the connection, I asked him repeatedly if I could change the plan within the month or after a month if I find out that 40GB isn't enough for my needs to which he concurred. But within a month, once I tried reaching out to the customer care for change in plan they said I can't change the plan within 3 months since I've paid the advance amount for such. I told them that I'm in fact moving up with the plan and hence will be paying extra than what I was supposed to pay for 3 months, and that there representative gave me a confirmation while taking the connection. They said if I wanted to change the plan I'll have to pay the monthly bill accordingly and the 3450Rs I gave at the beginning won't be adjusted,i.e. it's as good as lost. This is a complete lack of coordination among the airtel staff since it was their guy who told me about the plan changing.Now this representative's words are-"the customer care is giving me different answers everytime I try them so give me more time". I'd request Airtel to pay heed to my request because this is a fault on their behalf.

Airtel — Poor service and misinformation

i have a airtel dth tv booked in the name of my father dr. ashok agrawal.i have been using this connection since may.recently i recharged the tv,but failed to recive any signal.i complained on costomer care .they sent me an engineer.the engineer told me that your connection is being recharged,and ther is fault in the cable.he adviced to get it changed which i did by spending rs.2000.i called him and next time he said the cable was alright there is some problem with the socket in the router.for which he charged rs 200.finally he told me that the recharge has not been updated from the service provider.this whole process cost me about 3000 rupess,where nothing was required other than some technical update from the company side,leading to wasting of money and time.airtel should take appropriate step and to look into matter and pay for the losses.
