Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi,
This is regarding my postpaid mobile connection [protected] provided by airtel. I have been using this number for the past 6 years. Recently I got an update that there is an offer for 3G usage in Airtel which is called 3G Double Dhamaka plan. I was in a normal Rs. 98 GPRS plan where I was getting 2Gb free in a month. I thought of giving a try to the 3G stuff and changed my plan to Rs. 100 for 200MB. The highest speed offerred by Airtel is 21.1 Mbps as advertised by them. I am not asking for that speed any how and just need something near to 5-10% of the top speed. Right now I am getting a speed of around 300 Kbps which is not acceptable at all. I raised a complaint with Airtel customer care and they said I will get a call within 4 hours, I waited till 4 days but still notcall. I called Airtel customer care again and they said they are escalating the issue and not able to give me a reason whether why I didn't get a call or whether why the issue is not resolved.

I just wanted to make awareness to all the Airtel 3G users, you are not getting the speed for which your paying and what they advertise. I will update this in facebook and also please inform this to all your friends who are using 3G. Airtel is cheating all their customers and people are not aware of it at all.

Dear Sir,

I have been a customer or Airtel Prepaid phone for more than 5 yrs. It feels very miserable when you ask any query to a Airtel customer care representative about any validity recharge issue or any plan that you would like to know. They either don't know anything or they don't want to share anything that is important for us to know.

Recently, the validity of my mobile phone number ([protected]) number got expired. I received no message and when I spoke to a customer representative, I was told to call some other number. Do these people have no idea? Are they kept to trouble us by asking us to call every other number to resolve our issue? I still have my phone off due to this. The other number I tried calling doesn't resolve my problem.

Please look into this.

Thanks,

Hello,

Mysel[censored]mesh Bari, My Airtel Postpaid Mobile no. is [protected],

On 4 th Aug 2011 I have activated 2GB internet pack by sending SMS AGPRS98 to 51619, in return of which I got sms with reference ID for AGPRS98: 33737114.
After that My bill for 8 days was Rs.784/- against which I asked waiver of Rs.500/- (Internet charge) from Airtel which they also agreed & pass on to me.

But in Bill duration 12th Aug to 11 Sept 2011 they are not agrreing any waiver & have stopped my outgoing service for not paying total bill of Rs.3666/- . In between bill period once I hvae done trial & error & just sent sms of AGPRS98 on same 51619 on date 22nd Aug 2011, against which again I received sms with reference ID for AGPRS98 : 34009838.
Now I Airtel is not agreeing on Activation made on 4th Aug 2011 & even after a chain of mails to Airtel I am not getting an appropriate response & struggle to contact Airtel as they have barred my outgoing & also barred my number from Complaint Helpine 121 & 198 from date of bill which is 12 th Aug 2011.

If any clarification required, please call.

Kindly intervein in to the matter and solve my problem.

Thanks & Regards,

Umesh Bari

Hello,

I applied for AIRTEL broadband on June month.(Application no: CH1191797)
An AIRTEL guy gave me a reciept and collected Rs.1299 from me saying that connection would be given in 2 days.

After one or two weeks, no reply from AIRTEL. I contacted and they said that my house is in a non-feasible area.So asked me to cancel the application on JULY month.

I cancelled it on July 1st week. They assured me that I would het my money within 15 days.

It is October and I have not got any good response from them.

So, I started to e-mail about my concern from August month, Whenever I send e-mails, they would reply me with a a fresh ticket number.
The ticket numbers I've got are:

2982820
3495012
3656048
3733330
4689012

They would set a dead-line for each and every ticket number. And if I send an e-mail on the dead-line date about that, they don't reply me.

After 2 days, they will ask me to wait for another 1 week and issue me a new ticket number.

I even tried to call to these numbers [protected] and [protected] about my refund status or about the ticket numbers.

But you know what these people are doing? They will put the line on hold for 10 minutes and I have never got any fruitful reply from them. So I will lose Rs.10 on each call(I've lost more than 70 rupees to get my own money) This made me to stop calling to those numbers.

Please anyone help me to get my money.
Please forward this complaint to anyone in AIRTEL.

Thanks in advance.

To be precise, I am listing my problem in short. I have two complaints.
1. Network coverage issue at my home since last 8 months.
2. I gave up on airtel and applied for MNP, but they rejected it.

I am airtel post paid customer since last 4 years. I did not wanted to shift to any other service provider and hence i waited for 8 months to resolve this network coverage issue(I think is the most genuine reason to apply for MNP). Finally when I applied for MNP, immediatly i started getting calls from them but nothing got resolved. i also wested lots of time talking to customer care and explaining whole strory every time.

After this story I am not interested in being with airtel any more. I am ready to appeal to TRAI and go to consumer court if required.

Name: Vikas sangani (Pune)
My number is [protected].
Account number[protected]
Outstanding amount was negative when my request rejected. Still it is negative.
Airtel post paid within Maharashtra and Goa circle.
I applied for IDEA post paid through MNP.
Unique Porting ID is AZ271819
Expiry date is 30/09/2011
Airtel replied to IDEA saying they have contractual obligations.
I wanted to know what are the contracts I made with them and solve those so I talked to airtel customer care and they said we dont know. they literally wested my time keeping me on hold for long time and then terminated the call.

Here is the list of complaints.
39664401 Churn 20/09/2011 Closed
39664400 Churn 20/09/2011 Closed
39594517 Churn 15/09/2011 Closed
38944484 Churn 10/08/2011 Closed
38974960
39601064
They just close request without being solved.
Here are some of the reference numbers for talking to airtel customer care.
F[protected]/09/2011
F[protected]/09/2011
F[protected]/09/2011
F[protected]/09/2011

I am hopeful to get it solved.

Hi ,
My Customer ID is [protected]

This is regarding the service I am getting by booking Airtel Digital TV Online to bring to the notice of higher officials.

I booked the connection Online on 19th-SEP-2011 , I opted for South value sports and the person from Vriti Interactive said the actual price is Rs 2190/- but we have a 100 discount so pay Rs 2090/- Person who contacted me (manish.[protected]@vriti-interactive.com).

After calling customer care several times the connection was installed in my premises on 30th-SEP-2011.
After Installation:
Label number:[protected]
card id : 85403566

Now on 3rd-OCT-2011 , I am not able to view anything in my TV.I have been calling customer care many times and they have been asking for 5hrs time for the past 3 days for activating my account. I am getting a ERROR CODE 6 or sometimes ERROR CODE - B001.

Please do the needful or suggest on the next steps to be taken.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi
My mobile number is[protected] and has been blocked by Airtel (Prepaid) for outgoing calls today (oct 4th 2011) without any prior information. The reason for blocking is the documents i submitted are not in line with what Govt of india wants.

I am using this mobile since last 9-10 years and stay at the same address. I made so many calls to customer care service most of the times the calls get disconnected while waiting for a customer care executive. However after trying for almost about 30 minutes i got thru and they said that i had a verification bar. The representative even asked me to verify my address and the address i gave on the phone exactly matched with what Airtel has in their computer system.

I checked with them why my number was having a verification bar, they mentioned that i did not answer the questions correctly when they called me for verification.
I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY CALL FOR VERIFYING MY DETAILS in last 2-3 months. Please give me the details of when i received that call, who called me, date and time etc... otherwise don't provide this reason to block my outgoing calls.

Also, I would like to know what is the Governemnt Norm (document) that mentions the customer to submit verfication documents every now and then, and what has been the changes in norm NOW that requires us to submit the documents again ? What is the frequency of submitting documents again as per this norm?

I hope my problem is resolved immediately., The REP told me that they can only activate my mobile outgoing calls after i submit the documents, however there are other operators like Tata etc. they activate the customers immediately and give them a week;s time to submit the documents. Then why AIRTEL does not have this? All service providers should treat their customers equally when the REASON is the same for blocking outgoing calls..

regards
A very unsatisfied customer of Airtel

I had an IPTV connection in gurgaon, recently I shifted to Indirapuram Ghaziabad. For that I had to transfer my IPTV connection from gurgaon to Ghaziabad. I called airtel customer care on 20th september that I want to shift it from gurgaon to ghaziabad as I am moving there on 1st october. He said leave you phone number with us, person from airtel will call on 1st oct and get the details and documents to shift the connection. It will take 5-7 days. I was relieved and shifted to indirapuram on 1st october.

I did not receive any call and again chased them on 3rd oct. They dont have any helpline number updated on their website under 'IPTV' section. But ultimately I was able to get one number, I called them and they gave me the number of Nitin Krishnan of ghaziabad region and asked me to call there. I could not connect to his number as it was always busy. Then after more struggle I got another number of gurgaon to call upon 4444198, executive said I should lodge a complaint and make the pending payment. I immediately made the pending payment and she gave me the request number which is 5082944. She said I will get a call with in 24-48 hours and will be done in 5-7 days. She got the new address from me.

Today I again called and gave the request number, but cust care exec told me that I will have to wait for 1 month to get it done!!!!!! I then called another person and asked him to give me a new connection, he said I will again have to pay 1750 rs(setup box, wifi) to get a new connection. When I asked the logic behind this as I already have setup box and Wifi with me, he said there is no logic, I will have to pay this in order to get a new connection else I should wait for 1 month. This is pathetic, company like airtel is looting people of their hard earned money and are monopolizing the market.

I request you to please look in to the matter and help me getting it done asap. Thanks!

Hi Airtel

There is no doubt that you people have lost 40% of market.

Am pleased to inform you that I have faced worst service from airtel and am tired of telling the stories again and again.

Here the crap begins. I was a postpaid customer and I have paid the bill through card on Saturday and requested them to convert to prepaid near kormanagala outlet.

Person named Ramya she was so irresponsible that she told me it would take twenty minutes to reflect system .It took almost 72hours to reflect that was on Monday evening she confirmed me that it had been done on Monday evening. L had provided all the documents on Saturday itself to airtel office to convert to prepaid .Tuesday evening I had recharged and got validity for one year. Unfornately on Thursday it got disconnected due to documents was not submitted. One Saturday 01/10/2011 I had been to kormangal an outlet they informed me that due to signature they did not submitted the documents.

Why the hell I did not get the call then was my question. No answer from them.

Later I resubmitted the documents and they had given me 3 days of time. So for three days I was not able to make the call. Why the hell does it takes three days just to update the information THEN WHAT IS THE SLA THAT YOUR COMPANY HAS.

EVERY TIME I CALL CUSTOMER CARE EACH BUNCH OF FOOLS PROMISES ME. RAMYA, team LEADER KALID, MANAGER SATISH, EMPLOYEE YOSAHDA, SUMATHIRA.

NO DOUBT INDIAN CUSTOMER SERVICE IS WORST. PERSON CALLED HIMSELF SATHIS CLEARLY TOLD THAT WE CAN ESCALATE IT AND HE WAS READY TO GIVE ME THE EMAIL ID. WHY THE HELL THESE GUYS ARE THERE HERE AND Y U CALL UR SELF AS BEST SERVICE. DUE THIS BUNCH OF FOOLS AM CONVERTING TO VODAFONE OR BSNL. SORRY TO TELL YOU I HAD FOUR CONNECTIONS WITH AIRTEL ALL ARE BEEN CHANGED.

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE. LOSSING A CUSTOMER IS NOTHING BUT LOSSING A BUSINESS VALUE PLEASE DONT SAY IN MEDIA ABOUT THE BULL BUSINNESS ETHICS OR VALUES WHEN U PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW THAT VALUE OF CUSTOMER.

Mailed following to Airtel multiple times, received auto acknowledge mail assuring response within 24 hours. Only Recoveryt team is calling me, still waiting to hear from Customer CARE (what is that) team.

I had requested to shift my connection to Airtel on 20th August but they asked me to clear all my bills. So I paid on 23rd August Rs 690 to clear the bills and raised request to shift on 23rd August itself. Airtel committed shifting within 10 days (top), charges Rs 350.

FYI, I have shifted at walking distance from my old home. Hardly a distance of 200 meters. Despite multiple calls, innumerable requests they never shifted but when it was time for billing cycle they remembered to call me. Airtel is now asking me to pay Rs 851 for phone and internet usage for the period when they ensured that I don't use the service.

I had informed their escalation managers Mr Santosh/Mr Sajan to cancel my connection and have sent multiple mails to that effect. They won't disconnect and won't shift but they will charge.

Airtel is not providing NOC without any reason for my numbers [protected] and [protected].
I sent an email to [protected]@in.airtel.com and called customer care, but they refused. I have also visited AirTel relationship centre Aundh, Pune. They refused me and said that we do not have authority to give you the NOC letter. People at relationship centre do not even interested to talk to me.
I have already paid my bill amount in advance.

It has been very very bad experience with Airtel Customer Service with me. I want to change my service provider & go with docomo. I tried 3 times for MNP & get PORT numbers. But every time I got call from airtel. I was promised to be given a WIN CUG 149 Plan activated on my 2 Airtel mobile numbers [protected] & [protected] time (within 4th Sept'11 to 3 Oct'11), however the promise was not kept yet. Mrs.Rashmi, Mr. Nitesh was given promises to me. They said according to Win CUG 149 Plan- Airtel to Other Mobile .30 paise per minute. But when i check airtel website about that Win CUG 149 plan, nowhere that type of plan occured. Pls I am requested them to resolve this issue as early as posible. However, there has been no resolution given.

Hope, through this I may be able to reach the higher authorities and get what I wanted.

To Airtel

For nearly the past 2 months, I have been struggling with frequent Wifi disconnection issue at my place. It was installed by Vijay who represented AirTel/Beetel who was in a hurry and did not give any specific details and also failed to get me the voucher while he got away with the modem that I had earlier (as he replaced it with Beetel 450TC1). When I initially placed a request to convert the physical connection to WiFi, Aritel did assign that job to Srikanth who closed the request the very same evening without even turning up after 10 days. When queried about the delay with Airtel, this incident was brought to my notice and they sent Vijay for installation who collected Rs. 1500/- without providing the voucher and vanished with the modem that I was using. It was told to me that Airtel will have the records of when the instrument was installed and will act as a warranty should there be any complaints with the instrument. They sent multiple so-called engineers to check the issue here and it was once again Srikanth who was assigned the job and never turned up, but he did ensure to close the case as he did earlier. Then came Mudassir (who was understanding and helpful) who was unable to rectify the issue and stated that the problem is with the instrument itself. Since then, I have been struggling to catch hold of Airtel team (Raghavendra, the floor/team manager did promise to help and is unavailable now while Shivaranjini, the floor manager, refused to take responsibility here) who are now singing a different song altogether and are unwilling to take any responsibility here. I am also unable to get in touch with Vijay/Srikanth/Deepak (supposedly the Team Manager) as they are either not picking the calls or the mobile is switched off.

Please help.
