Airtel review: customer id 518

I had purchased a sim card after paying security deposit of Rupees 500|- but I did not activate the card after I came to know that the sales girls had lied to me saying that ISD calls will be 5 rupees a min. After that without activation I got a bill So I went to the airtel gallery and told them that they have sent me a bill without my card being activated and they promised to refund me my security deposit after one year I am still to receive my security deposit

see complaint as written several times .

network problem in room we are living in usman pura tara pancenter. aurangabad, maharashtra, india

I have 3 connection of Airtel but i was not satified by the connectivity of the connections .Lots of time i made complaint to the cutomer care but no action was taken.Major thing is that 1 executive came form a collection agency and abusing my family members .He told my family that they will kidnap my daughter who is 4 yrs old .They also called me on my cell and again repeating the extermely bad language that i cnt explain.I recorded each and every world of that agent.Collection agency name is Fusion Corporation and executive name is Shahid. Continously 3 days these guys were floowing me with some local gundas when i was coming from my office .WE also filed complaint aganist them to plocice commossioner of ahmedabad.My no is [protected].

Kindly take strict action against them and that is very bad experience .

I am using airtel prepaid from last 3 years. i decided to change it from prepaid to postpaid.
I go to airtel shop in my city rewari.I submit my rationcard and pancard copies.
The verification has came and every thing is all right .After 20 days they will bolck my outgoing by sending a
sms that your verification is wrong.Than i went to same airtel shop from where i purchase sim and they will say me
that they are not responsible for that and they are not able to help me also they misbehave with me.
My outgoing is blocked from last 2 days.
My mobile no is [protected].
Now tell me what can i do .

i'm sorry sakshi but i've been experiencing numerous problems with airtel for a while now...for the same reason i'v decided to switch from airtel to the new tata docomo...not only do they offer better plans for postpaid customers (http://tatadocomo.com/postpaid-plan-details.aspx)..they are also letting the customer smake theri own customised plans as per their needs...along with better VAS...i', m sorry to inform you but airtel has lost out on a loyal customer in me!

this is really scary and disgusting...yes i am angry with airtel and have been for a long time now...that is why i've switched over to tata docomo..who are offering me better plans and service (no doubt)...they have this amazing 1 paisa/sec for calls offer and so many new VAS...see for yurself (http://tatadocomo.com/prepaid-mobile-features.aspx)...airtel please get yur act together

hi, i am user and purchaser of airtel sim card my number is [protected]. many times my account is credited without any use and when i call 121 customer care he don't return my balance in my account. after few days ago when i am using another sim in my handset and my number [protected] is call forward to that number([protected]). when m forwarding call in which times my balance is something Rs:65.00 or more and after two days i see that my acconnt balance is cerdited something Rs:50.00.then i call 121 and say that my problem.then he send a sms and tell me ur using any gprs service.but when my mobile sim is switch off then how can i use that services.so i will request my account [protected] is full check from the date of purchase because this type of probleum is faced my me is many times.

I have got a connection from Airtel (Advance Rental Plan Rs. 699 for one year) associated with mobile phone number [protected]. However, I have only used the number for one year. After the completion od one year I received a call whether I wish to continue the plan again, I said NO and the next day I received a message that the same plan has been started again. I called up the customer service of Airtel and they refused to de-activate the plan.

I also received a call from them and asked them that I would not like to continue my number and I am ready to pay my bill. I requested them to charge the advance rental on prorata basis as I would be using the number and ready to pay the usages but only after I received the corrected bill that means rental to be charged on prorata basis not for the whole year. But they did not agree to me.

Now the number has been completely deactivated and late fees is being added.

My usages (including rental of 2 months) is Rs 600 only. And I am going to pay that much only nothing beyond that.

I need your help regarding this matter.

Thanks in advance.

I would like to inform that I subscribed for Airtel prepaid service in chandigarh a 6months back my no is [protected], with the relevant authentic documents submitted. now they disconnected my mobile giving the reason that document verification failed. I am still in dilemma that how was this possible since each and every document was authentic.without any information they disconnect my connection.want to ask one simple question that why do give the connection in the first place before verification and what procedure do they follow that verification of authentic documents fail their test. I hope somebody is listening to my problem.

My cell no.[protected] I want to change prepaid to post paid conection, Ihave been submit require document with 500/- cash on 27/July/2009 and airtel give post paid SIM with 24 Hours activation commitment, till time I have lot of call to costomer care center and lot of time Airtel suvidha kendra at sodala ajmer road JAIPUR but my connection not to be convert till time, I'm sufer lot of problem due to prepaid connection Please do the need ful

Airtel mobile services are the most pathetic services I have ever experienced….. I have converted my corporate connection to a personal connection ([protected])in last week in June and by giving all the required documents . after confirming that all the documentation and verification is over and there will be no issues they first disconnected my number in first 3 days and then when my ex company employees spoke to to the higher authorities, the same was started again . I was very skeptical about using the same no but still I though that they have confirmed so there should be no issues in future . I also paid all the unbilled amount well in advance to avoid any surprises…. As I am traveling most of the times ….today in the afternoon again I got to know that, my cell was disconnected with out informing me ….or even sending an sms . after numerous tries I got thru the postpaid call center and they told me that the system is migrated and hence they do not have any info on my account …..i had to send some one to visit the showroom personally to check as I had no medium of communication and I get to know after 1 hr being there that thre is some issue with transfer … god know how the airtel is functioning …it is ridiculous ….if airtel customer care ppl have any answer to this then call me on [protected] or prateekagarwal@gmail.com

i have been using airtel for the last 3 years.
but from last 4 months i am not using a airtel sim, which when now put in cell displays limited service.i immediately want my network back.
please take care.
thanking you,

Hi,

Unfortunatly i am one of your victim who opted for your broadband
internet connection whose speed is 10 kbps only whereas it was
promised 3.6 MBPS.
i bought this connection on 02/08/09 from your SHAHDARA ( DELHI )
outlet whose sim no is [protected], IMEI No is [protected], USB-300G,
I have not had words with your customer care executive but also
visited at your outlet several times from where i purchased this
BLOODY ###ING CONNECTION reagarding this problem but nothing has been
done from your side yet,
i am quite pissed off with your fake promises and services, if you
cant give proper services to your customers then why the hell you
introduced this kind of plan.

i did not expect this kind of service FROM Airtel as none of my kith
and kin is dissatisfied with your service in telecummunication field.
therefore i request you to solve my problem as soon as problem ELSE
refund my MONEY.

Dear Sir/Madam

My name is SANJAY KUMAR and I was using the airtel postpaid connection [protected], then I changed it with prepaid connection. Customer care executive told that you submitted the document at airtel office. Then I told them that I can’t submit the document at airtel office because I have no time now. They told me that no problem our executive comes at your home and collect the document. Airtel executive come at my home and collect the needed documents. I was recharged so many times. Last recharged was 100 rupees. But incoming and outgoing call facilities was not available on my phone. I call the customer care number but not respond. After some times my number was show registration failed. I talked customer care. They told me your number is permanently closed, and till date they have'nt come out with a solution.
NOW I WANT TO WHAT IS THE REASON? PLS GUIDE WHAT I CAN DO I WANT THIS NO. BACK AND MY MONEY ALSO WHICH THERE WAS IN PREPAID CONNECTION...
Please active my mobile number.

My alternative is [protected].

i am highly disappointed with airtel RC bahulplaza jammu this time as i have been a customer of airtel from last 5 years.
I went to RC Bahu plaza for closing of my no [protected] as i am shifting to deli for official reasons.but they somehow convinced me to get my no reallocated to Delhi with first 5 digits of my changed & also changed my no to [protected] from [protected] .they handed me a slip with their stamp on it for relocation in Delhi after giving my address proof .they told me to go to any RC in delhi & provide the slip given to me to them & i will get my no reallocated without issues & they also asked me to pay RS 300/- in my account which i payed them.but now in delhi the are saying that jammu RC has mis guided me & my no can't be reallocated
& as i asked them my account balance it is Rs. -287/- & they also told me that i can't get this money back now .as i am on roaming i have to discontinue my no & i contacted 121 for this & they deactivated my sim .Now please help me out .
please do something so that i don't lose my money & also take some action against the concerened RC officers for misguiding
me & taking extra money from me as i have faced lot of embarassment at southex RC delhi.the officers there are very rude.

Dear Sir,
I had subscribed for Text Based Service in Airtel WAP through http://igmobi.com.I am losing Rs 20/- per week for no benefits.I want to deactivate this subscription by tonight. Kindly deactivate this subscription. My cell no is +[protected].please help me.

I have raised some requests earlier also that:
1. I got a message that “Thanks for downloading game worth Rs 99”. I never downloaded a game and I never got any reference number s for that. Then I told that as I also use the internet for Rs 140/week. Please increase my credit limit. But it was never done.
2. Then my outgoings have been barred. Without getting my bill I have been told to pay Rs 1200 so that my outgoings can be restored. Now as I am trying to pay the bill through online website “Aitel.in” BUT the service is not available and following are the snapshots for the proof.
3. Now I am told by your customer care executives that I need to go personally to the nearest branch and make the payment in cash. As I am employed with a very highly reputed company and I have some critical project going on and then also I need to go outside to make the payment.

AIrtel Customer care do not have basic manners to speak to customers. They treat customer as cockraches. Their Supervisors disconnect your call inbetween and will treat you very very rudely.

My Airtel prepaid number is [protected].

The Airtel Customer care service is really really worst, they don’t have basic manners/courtesy to speak to customer. If they cannot solve your problem they will simply disconnect the call. More over this is encouraged and always practiced by their floor in charge (Supervisors).

I spoke to Airtel Customer care and as the executive on call was not able to solve my technical issues, I insisted to speak to his supervisor, what was really shocking was most of the times they call some other executive and then he will pretend and speak as if he/she is floor in charge. At last i could speak to a real supervisor (Named: Manohar from Bangalore customer care/Technical support) and he too disconnected my call in-between and did not even bother to call back (incase if the call got disconnected accidentally).

I took the pain and called them again to just know why they disconnect the call like this, and when i asked the previous person name they said his name is Manohar, just Manohar
without any last name or Surname. They all tried just to confuse me so that I cannot complain against that particular person.
WORST things started when they were giving all wrong information about my SMS recharge; they were creating their own offers randomly on the call and were trying to somehow convince me to forget my Recharge benefits.

I am really shocked with this kind of service as 80% of my offer validity went in their problem solving and complaining process. Now that I have completed the offer time they are saying that I cannot use the benefits as the offer validity is over.
I am speaking about this issue to my friends and they too have similar issues with Airtel service, we all will post this and other problems in all possible social networks and make sure others don’t get cheated.

My self Chetan Thaker, Airtel Mobile (Gujarat) Postpaid customer from last 6 months. I had a postpaid connection with Number [protected], which later I transferred to Prepaid. By 19th August 2009, I bought a new post paid connection [protected]) from airtel mobile (Gujarat), Vadodara Alkapuri Office. Airtel office customer care executive asked me to pay Rs.500 for the deposit and asked me for the Id proof and photograph; which I provided at the same time. My mobile started working, but My International Outgoing calls were barred till the time of address verification. Later the verification was done and my International Outgoing calls were active. On date 30 August 2009, my outgoing services got barred with reference of Verification Undone ? I visited the same alkapuri, vadodara airtel office on 1st Sep 2009, 02:20:13 pm to complaint about the same and they couldn't contact their Verification persons and told me that they will not refund my money nor active my outgoing calls till they talk to the verification executives which will be around 10 minutes. I agreed to the same and given the time till 30 minutes. The executive didn't call me yet by 02:50:00 pm. I am going to register this complaint to the Consumer court of India as well as the Indian press for this sort of fraud happening with me by airtel.

Which affected my Domestic as well as International business and TIME.

Same thing happened with me before few months.
They had to active my mobile in half an hour as I went to the airtel office with Media people.

Just now at 7.00 am to (1.9.2009) I have paid Rs.97 and echarged for booster. I got the message i.e.
RECHARGE SUCCESSFUL ON 01.09.2009 AT 6.55 P.M. TALKTIE RS. 0.00 MRP Rs.97.00 Trans.ID [protected].

I regret to inform you that I have not yet received the booster back activation facility if I use *124#. Why it is happened? Is it Air tel service. I am life time customer paid Rs.999/-

Kindly take necessary immediate steps to do the needful. If not with the above recharge successful can I approach to the higher authorities legally? I stored above the echarge message also. S. Krishnasamy, Gandhigram Rural University, Gandhigram-624 302. Dindigul Dt.
