Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi,

My Customer id #[protected]

15 days back i had connection problem SM2 which took 5 days to get a resolution.
Last time they promised that they will provide better service based on the feedback shared, but nothing seems to have changed.

Connection problems are back again, now i am getting B001 error from Sunday 17th April 2011 (3 days for now).
I keep calling the customer care center, till now no one has approached to rectify the problem.
They also gave me a happy code to share with the representative expected to come today 19th Apr 2011 but has not yet arrived.


Why is that you always make customers wait for days for getting a resolution on a problem. Its no fun waiting for days to get a problem rectified.

To get resolution on this problem one o[censored]s are staying back at home just waiting for the technician to arrive. How many days can we stay back like this without moving out of the house?

Looks like, every fort night Airtel DTH will keep customers unhappy with new problems and delay in resolving problems.

Hi,

it all started with a simple request to unlock my iphone 3gs. But today, after 15 days of continuous chasing and calling , i am leaving india with unlocked iphone and a heavy heart.

but now i know many ways and execuses of how not to unlock and iphone!!!

some people here needs standing ovation.

people at customer care : everyone knows a different way to unlock an iphone ( awesome )

Floor Managers:

Pavitra: you never got back to me, even after a huge promise.

2nd floor manager ( i dont remember the name ): you invented a new execuse of emails not working.

Balakrishnan : being a floor manager, its your duty to call back if the call gets disconnected in between. write it somewhere.

Nodal officers:

Renjit or Regin: you were not supposed to go home today unless you get the iphone unlocked, remember. and you told you will call me back at 11 o clock, which one !!

Appellate Officers:

You guys are hopeless, you didnt even replied to my mail. keep it up and keep sleeping.

One person here needs special mention :

Ushakiranmai Maddela : pop ups just dont appears out of no where !!! remember.. your was the most funniest answers of all...

Net @ airtel.in : you never got back to me..............


So all of you .. celebrate your success.... you guys are the gems of airtel. and its a huge team work... shame on u all


Atul Sir,

Hi,
it is very surprising that nobody in airtel actually knows how to unlock an
iphone. this really shamefull.
i am now regretting buying it from airtel.
repeated calls and mail have not even made any difference. every other person
has their own way o[censored]nlocking the iphone. one of the floor manager almost made
me reset my iphone to factory settings. worst kind of service in its own.
i really dont know what to do nxt or where to go.. consumer forum is the only
option that i have now.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am Vishwanath. I am a customer of airtel for the last 4years with my mobile and broadband. This is the first time i am writing to you with some real concern. I have a airtel postpaid connection bearing number +91 [protected] for which i was not able to make a payment for the last 3 months due to financial constraints. I had an other airtel number bearing +91 [protected] for which i faced similar problems but at the end i made the payment though late.
I always pay my airtel bills late and for which i pay the penalty charges without complaining. This time for a mere sum of Rs 3000 payment your so called airtel agent called me and abused me over the phone using foul language. He also threatened saying he would call all my contacts and embarass me. He threatened my with dire consequences if i dont make the payment today even though i told him i will be making the payment next friday. Kindly let me know what i need to do cause this behaviour from airtel was uncalled for. If you suggest i pay it immediately, i might garner some amount and pay, but i would have to look out for other subscriber, but if you can address this concern, i will be with airtel like i have always been. At the end of the day, i will make the payment, after all i am no running away. I request you to kindly address this issue with some regards to your end user. I am also considering writing a formal complaint to the cosumer forum. But i am optimistic that this issue will be resolved by you.
I am available on +91 [protected].

Thanks & Regards
Vishwanath

My customer ID: [protected].

Complaint No: 7045471 for STB problems &

Complaint No:6733229 for No Signal (error code B001)

I brought HD multi connection 4 months back n since last 2 months I am faceing probles regarding the

1) No signal as well as the

2) STB NOT RESPONDING TO REMOTE

Despite many requests and customer executives & Supervisors (Sachin Singh last talked to) false promises it got delayed a lot and we had to suffer lot of mental torture calling them several times as if we had no other work to do. No engineer has come till date to my place.I have registered for this at least 5-6 times. Every time I just receive a msg saying the service request no is ----.I dont get any engineer's number from customer care where i can call up and resolve my problem.
Everytime sms comes that reqquest is resolved...Who resolved it. Did they confirm from me? Then why is my complaint closed without resolving it.
Please specify if they dont want to solve it.
Even today when i called the customer care i requested that cant i talk to the senior most person at the call center they just put me on hold for nearly 25 mins...what the hell!!!
Dont we have other things to do.............
If customer care Dept. has any shame please give me the details why this issue is still unsolved till date.

If the service agents cant work for free service for 1 year i am ready to pay you people Rs. 100 as donation.

Last two days back I got a no: of Mr. Rao[protected] either its not working or it doesn't exists.
I am paying Rs 520 a month for ultra Pack & i am not able to see movie channels as well as some imp news channels.
Who is going to compensate on that. The Service Dept. owe me an explanation on that.
I have given several complains of this issue but it is not paid heed to, this is really annoying.

Mr Customer care executives just dont care about customers and give blank replies.A limit is crossed now.
I want the airtel head office number or any top bosses number to show them the reality in a city like pune where no airtel service engineer available in prime area like Kondhwa which can solve a small remote issue.

Shame on Airtel!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

I am Mrinal Pandya, I have recently shifted from Noida(UP) to Bangalore, and had requested a relocation(reinstallation) request to AirtelDTH customer care on 31st march, 2011.

I was given 3rd Apr, 2011 as the installation date, which didn't happened. Then I again called up and got a new date of 5th Apr. 2011, as usual that also didn't happened.
And since that date, I am calling you customer care repeated for my AirtelDTH reinstallation at my new place, last friday I called up again and got your email address as well as the Srikeshav Ent., bangalore's phone number(I was said that these people are responsible for my area). But Now it has been 3 days and I am calling these people 3-4 times daily and they are giving me new dates everyday.

I request you to please look into this matter and take appropriate actions.

Below are details of my airtel DTH connection:
Customer Name: Mrinal Pandya
Customer ID : [protected]
Shifting from : Ghaziabad (UP)

New Location : Mrinal Pandya,
Flat no: 108, C-Block, ITINA Apartments,
Kempapura, Yemalur mainroad, Marathalli, Bangalore, 5600037.


Please let me know the assured details by when I can have the reinstallation done at my place.

I had already recharged my connection for 6 months and outof which I have not used your service for last 20 days. This is seriously going wrong against the Airtel Name, and I can assure you that If the installation doesn't happens in next few days than I will take appropriate actions against Airtel DTH in consumer court, as the AIRTEL DTH is failing to provide me the services for which I have already paid.

Looking forward for a quick resolution from your end!!!

Thanks!

Mrinal Pandya

I, p.s. sundaravaradan bought airtel dth with recorder as its packages are cheaper to me (I am already having TATA SKY and having very good quality pictures)and installation done on 6-3-2011. id. no.[protected], from day one I have problem viewing channels because of overlapping of clolours at regular intervels. I made many number of calls to customer call and their mechnic visited twice and replaced HDMI cable. but of no use. they could not find what the fault .Now I want the set top box be replaced as early as possible as i am unable to view any channels at a stretch as it is very glaring and overlapping. I am very much disappointed with the sercvice airtel dth providing and they are not having technicians who could locate the problems as they are all at sea when problem arises. I wish i will not recommend anyone going in for Airtel DTH for worst service

Subject: Replacement of SIM- # [protected] from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India

Dear Nodal Officer,
AIRTEL, JHARKHAND, BIHAR.
Respected Sir,
I have the above SIM no active till dated 28th March 2011, while I was using my
Internet with the balance on date 3526 MB of data available & Rs- 146/= balance
on date.
I was in active use of this SIM with last two Recharge Rs- 222/= each on 5th &
*th March 2011. apart from the net Rechcarge of Rs- 98/= twice for misleading
information of SMS to avail 60% off in the roaming call, while I was in Mumbai.
I have approach the Airtel customer care office in Bistupur, Jamshedpur, but
the replacement of sim given by sonari AIRTEL Distributor Office but yet not
active since 30th March 2011, I was told it will be active within 3 to 72 hrs
max, but alas! today 11th day Past without any result, it shows the poor
customer care of the AIRTEL Service.
I have talk with the customer care at 121 patna told there is no prblem in this
sim of SLR-5 GO TO NEAREST AIRTEL OFFICE THEY WILL DO THE NEEDFULL. I am
surprised while given all the valid data, its not activated yet. This in turn
gfreat loss to me as an Overseas Employee Given this No to most of the places.
Closing it will be Disastrous. I have given this message to Crime Dept. Waiting
for the reactivation at the earlist at your end.
I need this to be give soon to avid loss. "Contacting Emloyer may Think of Fake
no, this is unfair, please resolve it soon."
This is for your information I have never received any ID proof Clarifiction/
Resubmission.
This is with me since two to three months only.
In failiure to reactivate this SIM may go for the CONSUMER SERVICE GRIVAANCE
and with the notice of FRAUD from the AIRTEL end to PRINT MEDIA IN ALMOST ALL
THE LEADING news Media.
I am restlessly waiting for the Reactivation of the above no a fresh SIM given
to be matrerialized.

I tried calling customer care but the executives are not responding in right manner. I have not recieved the complaint number any single time. My spouse tried calling and she could not connect for more than 2 hours trying. This is really bad experience for me.

The money has been deducted from my account 3 days back by online mode, services not started and even not a single courtesy email from Airtel regarding the suffering to customer.

If you want I can provide my cell # [protected]; please check and go through the calls I made. THIS IS REALLY BAD EXAMPLE OF SERVICE INDUSTRY. I need to raise complaint in consumer court regarding this. PLEASE WORK ON THIS AND RESOLVE THIS ASAP.

Dear Executive,
Airtel DTH Services,

Yesterday night by 11 p.m. I recharged my DTH with amount 260 Rs.; I got following status message from ICICI Bank as

Your Payment of Rs.260.00 has been made successfully to INDIAIDEAS.COM LTD
Your Transaction Reference Number is [protected]
Kindly wait while we pass on your payment confirmation to INDIAIDEAS.COM LTD

Sr.No Date Description* Cr/Dr Amount
1 16/04/2011 BIL/[protected]/Airtel DTH/AIRTELDTH_MI DR INR 260.00

Till now my airtel DTH services have not started and when I called customer care executive some one Shraddha attended the call wanted my credit/debit card details, without that she did not want to register complaint. I really do not understand why that is necessary, from data security perspective, I wanted to get my complaint logged without debit card/credit card no. but its really bad service i got, she just cut the call.

I am a share holder of Airtel & really not happy with the way customer care executives talked with me. If they can speak to me like this, i dont know how they treating other customers. If you have have call recorded with you, please do the investigation or please escalate.

Hi,

I have taken up a new internet connection for airtel broad band and during day time your internet connection works fine but from last four days at night around 12 when I come back home I just stops working.
And when I try to launch a complain to your complaint numbers at night there is no response and I really cannot listen to your pre-configured music all night trying calling again and again.
Finally today morning I managed to speak to your executive to a toll free number from my mobile phone (though I got my balance cut for you toll free customer care number). She told me that there is no such option that your executive can check my internet connection at night and you cannot launch such complaint now at day time as your internet is working and at night airtel takes no responsibility if any of your important task is depending on internet.
So if this is the attitude of your customer executives on complaint numbers so I would like to launch a complaint by medium of this mail that:

My internet stops working at nights around 12 I have a broadband wifi connection with IP TV.
And I am suffering a great loss of mental focus on my research work due to irregular availability of internet so if you do not fix the problem I wont be paying 30% of my internet bill as it don't work being a unlimited connection 24hrs a day.

my land line no for your reference is [protected] begin_of_the_skype_highlighting [protected]

the customer care numbers I use to call at night which are not responding and not toll free are:[protected]/[protected]
If these are not your toll free numbers please provide me with the toll free numbers as I cannot sit by my land line and try calling airtel for complain abt my internet for hours.
AIRTEL PLEASE VALUE OUR TIME.!!!



Thanks and Regards
Ravish Gupta

Dear sir,
i am a telecom-service user of Bhart Airtel. I have activated a message pack under which i can send 100 local/STD messages daily free as per TRAI guidelines .but this is the second time that in a day of 24 hours without using my 100 messages, they are charging me with normal STD fare and thus cutting my balance. hen i contacted customer care regarding this issue,they asked to file a complaint as proper information of this cutting was not available to them but i refused as earlier also they use to file and no action being taken. then they asked to transfer call to senior officer and nobody picking up there as i waited for 5 minutes and it was just ringing n ringing. hence molestation being done of peple like us. and this was the second time. so i am appealing to respected TRAI. so please take considerable action as soon as possible.

Thank you,
Ajay Mittal.

Sir, I've recharged Rs 333.00 on 16/04/2011 at about 5-30 pm. On 17th when i dialed my last call the outstanding balance showing in arround 275.00 (+) (-). I've also a data connection on my Mobile Phone
No. [protected]. Same day I've connected to Internet and it was connected. I broused some sites but
the net speed was so slow that I Couldn"t get any proper download. Ultimately I disconnect at about 12-15 A.M. on 18.04.2011.
It was utter surprise on 18.04.11 morning that the outstanding Balance is came down to "0". I went to your customer relation Centre at Parkstreet about the details of calls between 10-00pm of 17.04.11 to 6-00 am on 18.04.11. And was also described the details. The Smart Young boys and girls sitting with a Monitor of Computer failed to make me understand why it was happened. Perhaps they are not properly trained. Instead of that they connect the number of Helpline and ask me to tell my Porblem. Though it was unexpected to me that intead trying to solve my problem it was just shifted over to another. Anyway on conversation I came to understand that my net data connection valied upto 16.04.11 so it was debited from my talk time value.

Now my question is if the internet validity up to 16.04.11 then why it was accessed after validity period. If it is the argument of help line person it was customer service then let me know how much MB were down loaded with a NETSPEED was 8 to 10kps so that RS 270.00 will be charged from talk time balance?? Though your helpline helper couldnot tell me any thing instead of he ask me to mail to your nodal officer. If Customer Relation Counter person cann't tell any thing then what the neccessary to exhibit of all bogus young and smart boys and girls in the counter.
I once again request you to provide my call list between 5-00 pm of 16.04.11 and 6-00 am of 18.04.11 along with internet details of 17.04.11
Please reply with a satisfactory reason to avoid to take up the matter to appropriate authority.

We bought the airtel iptv in august 2009 and were assured of superior services and that many more channels would be added to the existing bouquet of channels offered.
We have called the customer care several time via our landline and complained of the following problems:
1. The remote is faulty and needs to be changed.
2. We want to add more channels to our package and are willing to pay extra but apparantly in the last 2 years Airtel has not updated its channels list and we are stuck watching ridiculous regional language channels.
3. The channels get blurry and hang.
Unless our issues are resolved in the next 5 days we intend on filing complaint/petition before the Consumer Forum and TDSAT against Airtel for the lack of service.

My customer id is [protected], and I live in Powai, Mumbai. Within 2 months of buying a DIGITAL HD box, I got a No signal error and I was not able to log a complaint with these jokers, who call themselves call centre employees. After not being able to understand what I was complaining about, these uneducated call centre employees just hung up!!! Making the entire process rather redundant and painstaking! Then I called up this guy called Ashok, no: [protected] (later I was to find that this same guy had installed my dish in the first place), who brought along a friend of his (also called Ashok) and they shamelessly charged me Rs 200/- to re-align my satellite dish! REason: I hadn't raised a SR (which i was unable to FREAKIN' DO! thanks to the PATHETIC customer care services) and I had contacted them through a 'private' channel! Bloody jokers! Their solution lasted about a week, and now, as of 18th April, 2011, I have error: SM2 (problem with installation). Man...at this stage, I'll PAY anyone to take my AIRTEL box away for good, as far out of my sight as possible. Just got in touch with Mithun, who is an Airtel Senior in this area. Let's see if he can alleviate my pain...even the "CALL" option to 54325 doesn't work on my Vodafone no! I NEVER GET A CALL BACK! Sigh...this is DEEP s**t. Can anyone help me get a refund?

Dear Sir,

My number is [protected]. I was with IDEA, due to network issues (as against there advertisements), i opted for number portability. I chose Airtel, and my porting request got approved on 13. Post that, the IDEA sim is of no use. As i was told, i had put on the Airtel Sim. There was a thank you message and welcome message which came from airtel. It shows full coverage. But i was not able to make calls, neither incoming or outgoing.

I started calling to customer care, each and every one giving me their own suggestions. Meanwhile, its a prepaid. I was not able to recharge the card. They suggested me various options, well, nothing worked out.

Hence, i asked them to connect me to the supervisor. I had talked with 3 supervisor so far, to my surprise, all gave me different suggestions. They all registered complaints with a turnaround time of 24-72 hours.

End result, i still cant use the sim. not able to make call or receive calls.

Today its the 5th day. As per my understanding the porting should happen in 2 hours downtime. Why is this delay, and why no body has any information.

I feel, MNP is of no use, another way to make money and harass customer.

Airtel is cheating there customers by activating there unwanted services for stealing cash from customers.one day my connection was activatine caller tune with out my knowledge and i called the customer care and deactivate it.but my talk time was already decresed and they are not ready to back my money.then after one month my sister is also face same type of issue that she got football messages daily and decreasing the talk time and she called the customer care and they are deactivate it but talk time is decresed.and again she recharged and that talk time is also they are picked up.again she complained to customer care they are behave very badly.then i tried to there customer care and felt this airtel is a fraud company they were behave very badly to me.today i got a complant from my fried that she lose 1 rs from her account on a daily basis .she tried to customer care but she couldnt get connection to them.i asked some question and realize that she is also cheted by Airtel.she used to getting comedy messages from airtel on daily basis.she complained me that she is not activating any services.any way now i can understand that AIRTEL is a FRAUD company.so please avoid new connection to AIRTEL if you are trying a new connection.and if you are a Airtel customer you can put a message if you are cheated by Airtel .and i am not proposing you to change the connection to some one since i am continuing with Airtel connection even if they were a FRAUD......and one more unfortunately my sister have no knowled ge in foot ball then why they activate it for her.

My mobile phone for[protected] bill dated 6th/April¿11,
I am charged Rs.5199/- for International SMS

I wish to highlight that these nos are local and national nos and not ISD nos.

The Airtel system has charged in my account for ISD rates and so the bill is
5199/- for International SMS.

Requesting you to please do the reversal for the same and confirm.
Also, please note the same problem was observed and shared with Airtel Customer
Care last month and in the same bill dated 6th/April where 2 Adjustment Details entry of Rs.1499/- and Rs.1499/- are for the similar error and later adjusted.



Please consider my case and kindly help to resolve the excess amount charged.

I had a WLL handset no: [protected] which i surrendered in July'10 in Akashganga , Supela , Bhilai branch. I was told that after deducting July's telephone bill from the deposit(Rs. 2100) , the rest of the amount will be paid back to me within 3 months. But, even after passing of ten months, I have not received the balance amount. Whenever I aproach the local office. I am told that my cheque is ready in Indore offfice for delivery. I am given a complaint no:[protected] for further enquiry. But, no reply is received from this number. I think, Bharati Airtel services should not spoil its good name & goodwill of its old customers for a small sum of few rupees.
