          Respected Sir.

          As i lived in family, one airtel number is constantly annoying to my wife personal mobile number. Now, the stage is that it is very problematic for my wife. when i am goes out of stationfor job purpose that person calling my wifecontinusily and when my wife dont pick that call then thet person text message on whatsapp. The number is active and when i call to him with my personel number they didnot pick the call on that time .

                Website: www.airtle.in

                I applied for a new broadband connection in ip extension, delhi. I chose 40 mbps plan (Rs. 899 plan) and i online deposited the advance rental of rs. 5428 against the cef number 11162114 on 6th may-2018.

                But now after making payment your representative is telling that this much speed is not available in my area.

                The representative is also picking the phone after making payment. I called 2 times to the customer care but they are not helping.

                I guess airtel is only giving service to get the amount from the customers and once the payment is done they do not bother about us. They are cheating the customers.

                I want to get my advance rental to be refunded as soon as possible.

                    I think this is the 4th time i am complaining what is the use of recharging my phone? when there is no networks and no net is available.. my net is not working and my networks are also not coming so why i m wasting my money on recharging my phone on time .. please look forward
                    I am sorry to say that day by day airtel network connection is getting very poor.
                    100kb data downloading time is 3-4 minutes. It is not tolerable. So I want to switch over to Jio...
                    My suggestion is please improve your networking area. Every time Customer care told me they are still working . But result is zero...

                      My number was deducted of rs 99 this morning. I do not want international roaming rental on my airtel number.
                      Airtel arbitrarily initiated to deduct balance from my main account without my request for any international services.

                      I do no want any international roaming or international service.
                      I want to be out of your default balance deduction schemes.

                      I'm reaching out here because airtel customer service has not responded within the timeline they had stipulated.

                      Please let me know how to unsubscribe from your default scheme of balance deduction without any request from the users.
                      Why did this happen in the first place?

                          Now few days i received many massages from "a$-tfarot" related to information of calls and massages deduction with duration (As same as when any call or massage occured). But in those moment i was sleeping or not handling my phone. So i am little worried about that who called or sent massages. Please help me come out this problem and block those kind of things from my airtel mobile no. [protected

                                Rs. 35 has been deducted from my balance saying fitonza has been activated without any previous notice. But i didn't activate anything. It is unfair to activate services without the knowledge of the concerned person. Moreover taking these much amount from a common person is not the right thing. So kindly look in to the issue and refund my amount. Such kind of activities should not be repeated. A proper prior notice should be sent.

                                FITONZA service is deducted 2 time means 70rs. It's a huge amount for me. One more service is also activated AIRTEL NOW FLASH. For this also they have deducted the same amount. That means, around 105₹-140₹ is deducted from my account. I dint even know where the money is floating because I'm using unlimited pack. Please refund my amount back to my account.

                                    Hi guys, airtel have started unlimited packs like jio..
                                    But this is really not great plan by them..
                                    They have condition through which u pay more than jio packs

                                    I had done 199 one month, 28 days..
                                    But after that next day they deducted 400 rs just for one day internet. Which i was totally unaware that 28 days are over..

                                    So i had to pay 400 for one day.. Wer jio gives 400 for 84 days..

                                    Just be beware before choosing airtel..
                                    Jio doesn't cut money for net after month end...

                                    Hope airtel stops playing game before they loose customers

                                        How can a company say fastest network of the world, ask consumers they are even not getting network coverage how can they be getting good 4g speed. I cant understand if jio ad orher networks are able to provide good speed over internet or network bars then why airtel has a problem.

                                        i am a postpaid airtel subscriber and using two phone iphone x and iphone 8 plus both have airtel and both has the same issue of network..i have given many complaints about this but no answer i went to airtel store they gave me a new sim but issue remains the same.Its just the customer bas who has made airtel strong otherwise companies are already in full plannning to sye airtel . Kindly fix it
