Dear Sir,

We have received a phone call from airtel no.[protected] on my friend's phone who holding the airtel connection on 6th may 2009, the lady on phone telling us that she is the airtel executive from Borivali branch Mumbai and offering us a RCUG group plan which provide rental 49 & free intracalling in group. As the offer is good our group of five agree to take the offer.The lady telling her name as Varsha & ready to send her another executive to fill the form & collect the cash. The boy, whose name was Rakesh Singh holding the Airtel Identity Card come to Bombay Stock Exchange as we work for BSE, & collect the cash amount of Rs. 3600/- & fillup the two forms and give us the acknowledge copy for the same, during this process the Varsha is continuly in contact with us & assured us that the plan is activate by a message received from airtel after 2 hours & the new two sims will be provide on next day. But after 3 hours when the message of activation not receive from airtel end, we contacted on [protected] but it continuously ringing.When we also call from our group phones no one pickup the call from above no.But when we call from our office landline a lady telling her name as Nikita pickup the phone and tell us that it is a Airtel Office & Varsha is gone for lunch when the time is 5.00pm.

We sure that we are cheated by the group of Airtel Dealer who holding the dealer card( information from customer care of Airtel).So we register a complaint aginst the above no. on 121, complaint no is 21565945.The customer care executive assured us that they will trace the cheater within 48 hours but they not reply again.And the above no.is still live and possible to cheat other people also

It is possible to trace the people who involve in this racket if airtel take interest as they having the all detail information of this no.If airtel is fail to do so that means they are not concern with the security & trust of people & the contry.

Dear Concerned,

This is to draw your kind attention towards the poor service provided by Airtel mobile. It has become their regular practice to add un-necessary charges in the mobile bill. I have recd no call/sms from airtel about the same but without any consent given by me they add Rs. 60 for 180 mins free local @60 scheme, twice or thrice in the same bill.

Every month, they are adding this and on making complain they adjust this amount in next bill. In this busy life, I have no time to call customer care again and again and stand in queue. Find attached herewith all the details and reverts from airtel customer care.
[protected][protected][protected][protected]-------
Dear Ashutosh,

Thanks for your revert.

But the problem is still intact. My bills are still showing due amount without any adjustments. I am receiving 2 different sms from airtel. One is showing my due amount as 236.42 & in other sms total due is Rs. 810/-. Bill is showing due amount as 2044. I am totally confused.

It has become your regular practice to charge Rs. 60 on a/c of 180 min local free @ 60 scheme. When I have never applied for this scheme than why everytime you include this amount in my bill. In last two bills also you have charged the same and on my complaint the same is adjusted. I failed to understand why this is happening again n again !!!

Now, I am totally fed up with the services of airtel. Pls do the needful done.

Dear Zeeshan,

Its quite strange to see youR revert. All the things were made clear to you, yet you are not able to resolve the matter.

If your Customer Care exec had not spoken to me than how can I receive the message that 299 Magic Plan has been activeted on my number ??

I have already quoted the message text in the trail mail and to you also in our telephonic conversation.

I hope you will change my billing plan as per my requirement and your committment conveyed via sms dtd 17th March '09 failing which I will try all other options to get the justice.

Thanks n Regards,

Dear Mr. Bhaskar,


Thank you for writing to Airtel.

This has reference to your e-mail dated 30 March 2009 regarding your Airtel number [protected].

As per your telephonic conversation with the undersigned, your bill plan renewal issue has been clarified.As per your complaint we have checked our record and unable to find any request regarding 299 Bill plan activation before 13 March 2009. Hence advance rental 999 was auto updated on your account w.e.f. 13 March.

However you have again requested for 299 Monthly rental plan on your account w.e.f 26 March 2009.So we regret the infeasibility to process any reversal against the advance rental activation.

In future too, please feel free to speak to our call centre executive on 121 (toll-free) regarding any issue/concern. You can also email us at [protected]@airtelindia.com.

Regarding billing Plan controversy & complaint against CCE




Dear Concerned,

This is to inform you that, I am having Airtel Mobile connection ([protected]) since last 4 years. Previously my billing plan was India Home 149 Plan (Advance Rental) which was supposed to be completed in the month of March.

I have recd a call from Airtel, and a lady explained me that since my Advance Rental Plan was going to complete, Airtel has a new offer for billing plan, she pitched me another plan for which monthly rental was Rs. 299 and I confirmed her to activate this plan from now onwards.

Surprisingly, On 13th March, I received a message from customer care stating "Adv. Rental 999 (24 months) Disc. has been activated on your Airtel Mobile with effect from[protected]." for which I have never applied...

On 17/03/2009, I received another message from customer care stating " As per your tele-confirmation, Bill Plan for your Airtel No. will change to Magic 299 wef next bill cycle." I got relaxed because this message was as per my telephonic confirmation with the lady.

Today i.e. (On 19th March), I have received a call from your customer care ([protected]-VIVEK), he asked me if I have any issues with the services. I explained him about the problem as it is mentioned above.. He was just compelling me that I have consented and confirmed to AMIT (I dont know who is he), to activate 999 Advance Rental Plan. I told him that I have never given any consent to anybody for 999 Adv Rental Plan. In reply, he told me that I have to pay 999 very sarcastically. I told him that I will not pay 999 otherwise I will deactivate my Airtel Number. He again told me that he is forwarding my request for cancellation.

Is this the way your CCE deals with customers ?? I would suggest you to please throw out these kind of executives (atleast in the recession time), who even don't know how to retain the customers and who don't know how to talk with them.

I am having some more Airtel Nos just because I was having a good faith in Airtel's services. But with this kind of services and behaviour, I am depressed.

Further, this is to clarify again that I have not applied for Adv 999 Rental, and interested in Magic 299 plan only.

Thanking you...

I have been using Airtel postpaid connection for more than a year and after every month or two, I was charged unnecessarily Clip Charges of Rs. 50. I raised many complaints in this regard, but nobody cared.
For past four months, I am being charged at a different rate plan. I have been raising complaints/ sending emails to them everyday since Feb., 2009 and infact I have a long list of complaint nos. which nobody bothered to resolve. In the month of March, I got a call from Airtel saying that I will be getting a waiver of Rs. 500 for all this mess, but till date I have not got any waiver. I did not pay my mobile bill for the month of April (which was Rs. 290) assuming that I am getting a waiver of Rs. 500 and hence I did not need to pay the bill. Now they have disconnected my number and when I talked to customer care people they are saying that it is disconnected because of non-payment of bill. I don't understand when I am getting a waiver of Rs. 500, why should I pay a bill of Rs 290. Same thing happened with my wife as well. I don't know whether Airtel has found some new ways to cheat the customers. There services have become really bad. Now, I advise everybody to think twice before taking Airtel connection, because they are big cheaters. It has happened with many of my friends also.

Respected Sir/Madam

This is regardig and illegal construction of a mobile tower in a residential area by Airtel Mobile Company,
We have even filed a case in the court and while the case in in court the owner of the house is doing the construction, he is least bothered about the case, now being court vacation he is doing all this work. We have tried to stop the work by the muncipal authorites but he will stop for the movement after they leave the place he will again get into work. He has kept the generator on second floor violating rules.
The tower is being constructed on the second floor of the building which is not strong and it is sorrounded by houses, there is a school nearby, two temples, one mosque. After knowing about the ill effects of mobile tower radiation we have opposed the construction. The owner of the building says I am constructiong tower on my building what is your problem. Our house is an old building which is tiled house and we dont have any other place to go. The owner of the building has got own house and property in a place 8 kms away from our town. Please help us.

Dear all,

I am using the corporate cug connection for last three and half years under plan of rs.299/-. Now i have given a request for change of plan the same has been rejected by airtel team. Please find the case details below.

One of my friend told there is a 249 plan is going on in airtel, then immediately (Last two months back) i called customer care 121 they told me to visit our nearest branch or visit splendi towers in begampet along with id so that they will change the plan. Then after one month i have visited splendi towers in begampet, i have spoken to one lady she told me their systems are not working right now, she informed me to visit their branch after 16th because there is system down. Then asked to take a request for change plan she advice me to sumit id card and company pay slip. After 16th. Again i visited their branch along with id card and pay slip, they told to pay whatever outsanding amount on that date and deposit of rs.500/-, on the same day i have paid the amount they have given receipts also. They informed me your request will be executed after 15 days automaticllay. 11th of may one lady call back to stating that your request has been denied, she told me you are using cug connection due to this for change of plan you need to submit company letter head for change of plan.

Again on the same day i have given online complaint for the same they called back to me today stating that your request has been denied. I am fustrated now i have informed them to cancel the connection then they told me to submit the company letter head stating that " please cancel the my post paid connection" is it possible to provide the company letter head these type of small issues. If they want my address proof of any other thing i will sumit, it is not possible to provide the company letter head

This is the very very very poor service given by airtel, in the front office has know newledge about the product.

Why they have not informed me all the formalaties when i visited their branch.
Try to resolve my issue asap

Cell no.

Dear Sir,



I did not receive any satisfactorily reply from the Airtel on the same and requesting you to please look in the details and provide the resolution.


I am mentioning complete details of the persons I have interacted with in the Airtel Customer care regarding this issue:


· 21-March-2009 with Mubashir: I inquired about the International roaming rates in the USA; and also asked for any plan Airtel has to save on my International roaming outgoing Call rates. He informed me to use the Airtel Prepaid WCC (World Calling Card) to make any calls to save on my international roaming.

::: This clearly mentions my intention o[censored]sing my cell phone in the USA for which the resolution was to use the Airtel WCC to make any calls while on international roaming.



On 30th April I received an SMS that my usage is Rs 7076 and make payment as this amount is near my usage limit.



· 2-April -2009 with Zeb Fatima: I inquired about the details of the whopping Rs 7076/- as I did not made any calls directly from cell phone but via Airtel WCC from my cell phone. She told me that my bill has not generated and she cannot provide me the details on the same. I was curious to know, if the bill amount came as a result o[censored]sing Airtel WCC to make calls through my cell phone.

I asked her, Madam “Do you agree that using my cell phone on international roaming and making any calls via Airtel WCC will not having any effect on my postpaid bills.”

Reply I got was “Yes, call charges are very nominal if you use the WCC through your cell phone”.



· 13-April-2009 with Mushfiq: While discussing my problem with him on my international roaming charges, he had no clue whether I have to use my cell phone or not. He was sure, that using my cell phone on international roaming with WCC will not have charges on my post paid bills which he accepts in the call and he asked me to log a complaint for the same to [protected]@airtelindia.com. He accepted the charges are incorrect because he did not have the knowledge that making calls on international roaming via Airtel WCC through cell phone will have higher charges.



· 20-April-2009 with Pankaj: He analyzed and discussed that quickly come up with the resolution that, cell phone should not be used to make calls while using Airtel WCC on international roaming. He discussed with his manager and asked for investigation on the said conversation details. He told me that all the calls will be monitored and proper reversal will be provided, if found the mistake from Airtel. As per his call made to me on 21 April, they were investigating the call records.

· 24-April-2009: Received a call from the collection department of Airtel. Informed that they understand that mistake has happened from Airtel but cannot help because they don't have authority to reverse the charges. Informed me to contact Nodal Officer.

· In the mean while I was writing to Nodal Office to get the satisfactorily resolution of my problem.



· 5-May-2009 with Gaurav Mishra: He understood the problem and the pain I was going through and investigated few of the recording happened between me and Airtel after provided the details. Discussed with his manager and come up with an offer to help Rs 3000/- from his side. As he is not authorize to provide any major relief more than this. He told me to escalate this issue to higher authority in Airtel to get the full refund.


Even though, Airtel executive accept that charges needs to be reversed back I am being harassed constantly.

All the Outgoing calls while on international roaming made to "[protected]" need to be reversed. This is the same number which is there on the booklet. I have made all the calls by dialing this number only from my cell phone.



Even though the information on the booklet says “Making calls from cell phone and mobile phone will have higher charges”



But to get any latest and updated information, you always call customer care for all necessary information, which I did.



Airtel insist that you call our customer care 121 for all the latest information. Which I did, but the customer care executive did not have the sufficient knowledge on the same and provided the incorrect information.

I am raising this concern for almost a months and Airtel has accepted that they have provided the wrong information on the same.

Don't you think this is a total case of Harassment? I hope you can understand the pain I am going with.


Hope to receive a fair justice on the same.

Purchased Airtel prepaid connection at Patna 2 weeks ago. No [protected].from local landline .The no cannot be reached.Message is' this facility is not available on your phone.'From local and outstation mobiles the connectivity is poor and even local calls have to be prefixed with 0 sometimes for calls to materialise.
I have taken up the matter with airtel but despite assurances there is no redressal.

Dear All,

After a long ordeal of around eight to ten months i was forced to write to the nodal officer. My Airtel Mobile number is 9967662XXX. and i have been using this number since early 2007

Let me bring to your notice when my problem began. Since Aug 2008 when a fire broke out at one of your towers in south of mumbai the coverage at my residence in Andheri West got worse.

Since then i have been calling 121 almost every 15 days to solve my network issue.

We are in May 2009. so for the last eight months i have been diligently calling 121 and raising a complaint almost every fortnight. You can imagine the number of customer service executives i must have spoken to. At least 80 to 100.

And each time that i have called i have only received the "We apologize for the inconvenience Sir, We are raising an issue on priority" reply.

However the priority never was really a 'priority' because i am still waiting, Eight months is not a short period.

Let me also bring to your notice that I have never in the last two years delayed any of my monthly dues. I have been diligent in paying the bills.

Hope you understand what a traumatic experience have i had in the last eight months. FYI, I am an advertising professional handling a leading telecom brand and so I am updated on how the trade works.

Call drops, low network coverage have caused me immense trouble. there have been times of emergency when i wanted to make a call but i couldn't because of the poor network coverage.

I am writing to you in hope that something will be done about my complaint.

I would also like to narrate my experience at the Airtel Relationship centre at fort, mumbai.

When i described my problem to one mister Abhilsash all he said was the same "sorry for incovenice" line.

I requested him to see if he can unbar my outgoing since i have been regular in paying my bills every month. All he did was nod and say that he cant do anything.

To add to my irritation i saw the entire counter passing some electronic messages on each others' screen and laughing. That’s quite unprofessional and extremely un-friendly for a customer service executive to deal with an already traumatized customer.

Let me just be fair to you and your organization and tell you that i soon will be filing a case against Bharti Airtel in the consumer court for "mental trauma, agony and monetary loss."

Thank you.

4 months back I switched Airtel PostPaid to Airtel Prepaid becoz of poor network in my office as well as home and stopped using services from Airtel.Kept the number only for few imp calls. Sent SMS to stop Missed Call Alert service thrice.But in vain. inspite of recieving a confirmation sms that the service MCA has been stopped I am charged Rs 15 everymonth. I have all the sms saved as a proof and I am going to the head office of Airtel in Malad.Pls dont take Airtel connections.

Hi,

I have been with Airtel for more than 8 years and now the issues is that, they are not able to resolve my queries or provide proper compenstaion for their mistake.

In the month of Jan - Feb '09 they disconnected my mobile connection without any intimation nor reason. I am still get the bills for payment.

This issue was started due to network issue in and around Bangalore.

I have been in touch with one of the escalation manager (Mrs. Bhanu) for more than 3 months now but with no proper explaination nor resolution for my issues.

I would like to know how to proceed with this and get my issues resolved.

I am sure that people in bangalore have been facing this issue with Airtel.

Kind regards,
Vasuki
