Airtel balance enquiry not working

Airtel simply does not care for its customers.
My number is [protected] and the sms balance enquiry i. E. *123# is not working since last 2months. For this i have registered the complaints many times with no reply from airtel customer care. I have send the complaint many times via message to 121 but the problem has not been solved.
Airtel does not provide any customer satisfaction and is very bad at fixing the problems.
If possible do solve my problem.

Airtel airtel customer care

I am using airtel prepaid connection in Bangalore.I got a promotional call from airtel which i didnt understand as that was in regional language so i disconnected the call.Later in the day i got a sms saying some Background Music service has been activated and Rs 30 were deducted from my account on 19 th Jan 2008.When i called the customer care ,they didn't tell the cause of the problem and disconnected the call.
I again called the customer care twice on 27th Jan,2008 and the same thing hapened again.Customer Care people are not ready to hear any thing ,they just disconnect the call in the midlle of the conversation.
Please can anyone send me the mail id of the Airtel Zonal Head

1-on friday..some of my friend me i attended my phone, in the mean while an airtel live java games prompt appeared which i didnt niticed, accdentally i clicked yes, then after talkin wid my fren i saw thatthere were no downloads from thatlink, i thought thank god, , but after a while i got an sms from 5800 that ' u have been charged 20/-for downloading java game, .then i recheckedmy mobole were theee any new downloads or not, ..shocked nothin had downloaded...as i lost my comolete balance of 19/-i was unable to make a call even to customer careon the same day...
On saturday...i recharged my mobile wid 30/-, i callled to customer care and try asking about the lost balance, she was too rude wid me and speaking without any kind of social greetings, or requesting r other soft skills...after some time i noticed that she hasnot told me her name, and i insted her to tell her name, andshe tried to change the topic, , keeping on repeating that there is no information, we cant tell the host name or id etc...finally she ended up the conversation with out any prompting or any of theinformation whichi required...
After few minutes i again called them...same a female recieved tha call n started conversation withouttelling her name, , , , i asked at least give me the detils of tha customercare exequitive who i spoke just before., she replyed that we wont have any information about such things, .so i kept that topic a side and asked about my previous issue 'lost of 20/- bucks, then she kept me on hold for 3minutes and ended up the call without any prompt or the information i required...
Note...1-the customer care executives of airtel intentionally not telling there names, and keeping there airtel customers on hold for long time.
2-not giving the airtel customers the information they required and making them to call again..
3-last but not at all least., , .the airtel customer care exequtives are charging 50ps per three minutes, and makingcostumers to stay on line for minimum of 10 minutes...
To speak wid such irresponsible airtel customercare exequitiveas who dont know how to talk at all, who dont have minimum information, who want to burn there airtel customers pocket all time, AND WHO FEELS THE AIRTEL CUSTOMERS ARE NOT GODS OR NOT A NORMAL PEOPLE AND FEEL THEIR CUSTOMERS AS THERE LIFE TIME .''ENEMIES''. .

The worst ever service i see from Airtel!

I'm using Airtel postpaid service. I have not received the bill which must be generated on 4th of Sep 2012. I'm chasing them from past 45days. But there is no resolution till now.
The mistake i have done is, i paid the bill amount before i get the bill. :(
No response from customer care and nodal officer. And the kind of replies they give when we call them is irritating. They don't even understand the issue raised and they will speak something else.
Apart from that when ever i call to 121 it is full of noise from customer service executive. What i can understand that is, because of the cost cuttings they have to sit next to next and other ppl discussion is also audible in out conversation. Which is irritating...
Not sure how airtel is going to handle this when we have MNP in place. Customer have n no.on options to move out.

Worst service

I applied for an broadband internet connection 1 year before for which Manu from Airtel came to my residence and said there is feasibility and received Rs.1100. After which no one turned up and still I am roaming to the Airtel Nodal office to claim the money.

Now I applied for a new BB connection again with Airtel and Manju from Airtel said that there is feasibility 100% and received Rs.1250 and I got no callback from him.

I need a callback from zonal manager or VP wo can act immediately

Sir/Madam.

Its been 24 hours am unable to use the internet on my phone. Whenever I call your customer care. I just get one answer that the service will be up in next 4 hours. This is affecting my business big time as internet plays a major role in my work. Could you please let me know what are you doing with this issue ?
Should I expect the service to come up or should i go ahead and buy another service provider card, because this is not helping me in any manner.

Awaiting your reply

I have been using Airtel's broadband/IPTV and landline connection in New Delhi at Malviya Nagar and recently I applied for a shift to another place (to Ashram) on 7th May . They promised everything will be shifted within 3 working days. Today is 20th May and after talking thousand times to customer support representative, Zonal head, writing complaints in emails to the zonal head and doing everything that I could do I am still not able to get it back in my new place.
Every time I heard a word from them they said their technical team is looking - don't know what the ### they are doing...
Even I have been following up this Mr. Rakesh Kumar who posted this above comment since last 8days but in vein.
Now I am going to sue them in charges of failure to deliver on commitment causing me loss in my business. I will see how I get my loss taken care by Bharti Airtel.

Airtel money debited from account!

I have also faced an money fraud issue with airtel call home in recharging my account. I have attempted to recharge the account serveral times but every time transaction failed. When if you check your bank account and cc account they debit the money from there. Almost my $350 is stuck with them becoz I made several attempts to recharge. And when u send them mail regarding it, they don't think it important to reply back. My money is still block with them.

Pathetic services and there gateway sucks.

Airtel call Home is the worst service that i have ever opted. I purchased $100 calling card from them and faced following issues.
1) call drops within 10 Seconds of making a call
2) No gifts(Free Saree) as promised in their independence day deal.
3) Unnecessary deduction of minutes
4) voice quility is poor.

So will never recommend to go and purchase airtel call home service.

I also faced problem in recharging. Airtel customer care is worst customer care. Airtel is the big fraud company. Better dont go with airtel at any point of time you will loose your money. Only the time varies. Some will be cheated with in a month and some one will be in a year. Any way Airtel will cheat their customers. Before you get sucked leave that service.

Airtel cheating with wrong bill plan!

Airtel is cheating with wrong bill plan for voice and data. I took an airtel data card with connection for voice and data, selecting plans for both. Since the last 3 months I am requesting them to change the bill plan from INR 999 unlimited data to INR 49 per month plan, and INR399 voice plan to INR199.

They are not simply paying heed to my request and sending bills around INR 1800 or so, against a call usage costing INR 300 or so. Problem is I set autopay with Citibank Credit Card. Now, neither Citibank has a provision to stop this autopay using their site, nor Airtel has anything to stop it. Airtel is easily siphoning money out of my account.

Airtel deactivated my boradband service

Dear Sir/Madam,

On November 28th 2007, I got the broadband connection from Airtel. To get the connection I had to pay Rs. 500/- for "registration charges". I gave a cheque to the sales person and I told him that I had moved to Chennai just a week back and I do not have a local account and the cheque I am giving is an outstation cheque. The sales person told me that since it is a HDFC cheque you do not have to worry and it is valid. The very next day I got the connection. After a week, "Airtel" de-activated my account. So I had to call the Airtel customer care ([protected]) to see why my broadband was de-activated? They told me that the cheque I gave was an outstation cheque and hence they have de-activated my broadband service. I was asking them how this can be rectified. They asked me to go to a near by showroom and I pay the registration fees (Rs.500/-) in cash. I went to Airtel showroom (Arcot road near Chandra Bhavan hotel) and paid the registration fee in cash and got a receipt for the same. After that I got calls from Airtel customer care 5 times and they told me that my complaint has been closed. They had also mailed my cheque (outstation) back to me in courier. Things were going smooth for 3 weeks and suddenly last week (January 4th 2008) my broadband connection was de-activated again. Guess what the reason is the same old one, outstation cheque. In the mean time I got the November-December 2007 bill from Airtel in that they have clearly mentioned about the cash advance (registration fee) which I had paid them. I called the customer care again and told them that how could you de-activate my connection on the basis of outstation cheque and also told them that even the broadband bill which I got from Airtel has my cash payment towards registration fee. Again the customer care person asked me give the receipt number which I gave and I was assured that the line will be restored within 4 hours but unfortunately that did not happen. I again called them on January 5th 2008 @ 10 PM and I was told that I had to give it in writing and they would restore the line in a week’s time. Till now they have not done anything. This is ridiculous, I mean for NO FAULT OF MINE I AM BEING PENALISED. Is there a way I can get justice?

Thanks,

Badri

Airtel airtel a crook mobile service.

Hi,

Airtel a crook mobile service.

I had recharged my cell on 09, december 2007 along with tariff top up card. From the day of recharge i'm facing a problem that in some cases when ever I send sms to any other operator or airtel number it shows me message sending failed but deduct money. Now my question is if a message is showing failed is in sent item then how can they charge for the service which I haven’t utilized.

On [protected]:37 a. M. I spoke with airtel customer executive name: pooja, noorjahan, shrishant, avadesh they said there is no fault on airtel end and denied to issue me any request/complaint. When I speak with their supervisor mr. Sumit he issued me request no: [protected] and promise me to sort out with in 24 hours. Today, 08-10-2007 after thirty days when I speak again with ms. Ruchi she said there is system error on airtel end and unable to tell me what action has been taken. They failed to give any solution/answer and narrate me a new story that their system is not working.

It’s more than a month i’m facing the problem each and every day and there is no answer from airtel and they call themselves no.1 mobile operator of india.

Thanks & regards,

Ruthless guys...
They do not have customer friendliness... you need to call and wait for more than 5 minutes to talk to a customer service executive... and after that you get a dung as service.

Looting is the simple and straight word for Airtel...

I know their charges where as high as Rs 8 per call in 2001 and it went for a reasonable Rs 2 per call only after Reliance Infocomm's Rs 1500 phone got introduced in 2003...
They are legal confirmed thiefs and do have an attitute to steal is right as they are providing the services...

Recent jacking of SMS charges to Rs 2 from Re 1 is a rogues imbibed cult.
Sunil Mittal is an agent of Vodaphone and Sing Tel.
Wishing you to look at their tie up in UK telecom market. They are partners there and can they be rival players here?

Trecheruous fellows... No business eithics in them.

Airtel automatic activation of hello-tune and deduction of charges.

I would like to draw your attention towards a corrupt practice of Airtel.
I am a pre-paid subscriber of Airtel. Few months ago one hello-tune was activated automatically on my phone and Rs. 30 were deducted. I wasted my energy and time to talk to customer care executive. They didn't revert it back, neither refunded the money. I had to spend few more rupees to cancel it by dialing some number.

BUT TEHY HAVE DONE IT AGAIN. I FEEL HURT BY THIS UNETHICAL PRACTICE. DON'T Airtel HAVE ANY OTHER IDEA TO INCREASE THEIR PROFIT.

I am not the lone sufferer, on internet one can find similar stories of Airtel customers. Moreover, the amount of Rs. 30 is immaterial but the audacity of this practice is significant.

I call for the authories to step in and curb this practice.

Dear sir,

With reference to above subject, we already two days back complaint given for intrex problem in our company. Our company name was sjr I park, plot 13,14,15, whitefield, opp. Sathya sai bab hospital, bangalore. But nobody taken action at all. We are facing lot of problems with you landline phones.

Airtel activates the scheme without permission

I am customer of Bharati-AirTel and for past few months i am facing problem for automatic activation on prepaid schemes without my permission. When i ask customer care executive they escape by saying that i may have recieved a promo calls and had activated the scheme. I told them that i had recieved a call and i strictly said no to them and i never talk much which this promo calls caller. later on i deactivated one scheme by loosing my money on activation charge.. few days back again my balance was deducted from my account, Then i called up on one of the customer care executive named as "Jitesh Patel" (Ahmedabad) and i asked to stop the service and give me a refund. that guy gave me refund but did not stopped the scheme, so on the next day it again activated , i again called to them and talked with another guy "Javed Intikari" he told that i have registered the complaint and assured that my amount will be refunded within 24 hrs, nothing happened, i again called a customer care and he also gave me surity of refund after more 24 hr, but nothing happened again, i agained called customer care and talked with lady "Nilofer" she took my all details and then told me that i m responsible for activation and deactivation of the scheme and argued with me and strickly told that i will not get refund. then i asked her to let me talk with the higher authority she forwarded the call after a long wait to a person "Madan" who seems to call himself a supervisor but i think he was also simple customer care executive and he also gave me the same reply and argued a lot .. I am fedup of such service from airtel. i must say that this is not way to do business ,, its a mere cheating the customer and also customer dont have any other option except calling to customer care..

Activates the scheme without permission

I am customer of Bharati-AirTel and for past few months i am facing problem for automatic activation on prepaid schemes without my permission. When i ask customer care executive they escape by saying that i may have recieved a promo calls and had activated the scheme. I told them that i had recieved a call and i strictly said no to them and i never talk much which this promo calls caller. later on i deactivated one scheme by loosing my money on activation charge.. few days back again my balance was deducted from my account, Then i called up on one of the customer care executive named as "RAJU" (KARNATAKA) and i asked to stop the service and he took my all details and then told me that i m responsible for activation and deactivation of the scheme and argued with me and strickly told that i will not get refund... I am fedup of such service from airtel. i must say that this is not way to do business, , its a mere cheating the customer and also customer dont have any other option except calling to customer care..

It has happened to me as well. Airtel has activated some of the VAS services in the mid-night on July 31st while I was sleeping and charged me for Rs.197. SInce then I have been calling these dumb people to get back my balance but they have not resolved it till date. Firest they told me that I was the one who activated their services.

Once I asked for the proof, they chickened out and told me that issue will be resolved by 11th Aug. SInce then every time I call them they tell me that in 24hrs they will credit back my balance. Even their so called nodal officer for Maharashtra & Goa region seems to be a useless fellow who doesnot bother to respond to the complaints.

My cancellation Reason is very simple. Your customer executives are not given proper answer and solutions. when i call to customer care they ask my connection problem and ask 4 hrs for rectifying that. it is continue from december 2nd afternoom to till now. They are acting and playing with my request. I lose my customers and business for the 3 days.

I can tell anywhere, these days your customercare is very worst before 1 year back you are best. now you will loose the business.

Anyway, I thanks to Airtel Telecommunication for their services.

I cannot submit any instrument to any airtel office. Please collect the Instrument from my place.

Airtel worst service

Airtel is very strict about the bill delivery. I can give u example " My Airtel bill delivered to Miss Setty according to customer care (I am Rohan sahu not miss setty). who is this miss setty .? After searching this name I found a person she tells me she never receive my bill and she also don’t know me. How this airtel people got the name of miss setty's ... god knows. After a long conversation i came to know that airtel is not responsible to deliver bill on right place , courier service that tied up with airtel that is the offender . And customer care was not agree to give the address and contact number of courier except POD number .

Story is not finished yet... one person found my bill in common mail box of my society ..and he gave a complain against my bill to Crime Branch Mumbai and the reason was "this person is staying here in this society then also his bill comes on this address".

31 st dec ( my birthday) morning i got a call from Crime Branch . According to Officer I have to attained to Crime Branch office on 1st Jan (First day of 2008) . What a pleasure Birthday and New Year I will never forget .

Now i am rounding and rounding the office of Crime Branch Dahisar Mumbai.

Airtel international call activation!

I have taken post-paid connection (Rs.999 for 1 years) plan from Airtel Delhi in May'06. At that time I have asked Airtel executive about the international calls. He had told me the call rates of the international calls. When I called up on Airtel customer care, they said I need to pay 1500/- IRS or it will be activated after six month. Now six month have passed when I called up on Airtel customer care again they said I need to pay 1500/- other wise you can't get this facility.

Airtel refund of money through dd

I had availed a postpaid facility under the 495 plan for my mobile bearing no. [protected].I had discontinued this facility in September 2007 on 11-09-2007.I got this connection converted to prepaid by paying Rs.160/- .I understand that I was eligible for a refund after sixty days of receipt of the bill for the mobile in question.I tried my level best by personally visiting the Airtel Office at Yadav Colony who listened to my complaint verbally and did promise to consider the same suitably.I am at a loss to understand regarding the type of substandard service being offered by a premier company of this repute.I am a employee of Tata and atleast we do not show this type of lackadisical attitude towards customer care.Trust I would get the DD refunded positively without being told to do so time and again.

Airtel incorrect billing!

This is regarding the airtel, I have been using their services for a year now, they have good offers for corporate customers with lower call rates, and we all being innocent will think only of the good side, but no one really knows their hidden and lucrative business plans, what they do exactly is fish out customer by offering good tariff plans and once you are in they try to remain as good as they can be, and when you think all is good then all of a sudden you will find a hefty amount on your bill which you have not used. This happened to me, my calls used to be very low and I opted for the AES249KK plan in which they have 600mins of call free, I was using their WAP / GPRS services and 3 months down the lane they billed for unknown things, claiming that I had downloaded certain things, I spoke to the customer service, they are all nuts and with no resolution, finally I had to pay that bill, and later that month I stopped using their WAP services, my calls were very low, and within the 600mins offer limit, so I used to get a minimal amount like 280 - 300 rupees, then 6-8 months down the lane I see that they charged me for 872 rupees, and in that most of the billing was for WAP which I was not using, I called up their customer service, believe me its the worst that I have seen in my entire life, moreover the reps are so very rude and are trying to make up the bill on me, they would not agree their mistake. So people, I have only one advice to you, before you make a decision with airtel, think twice or get taken for a ride. I seriously would want an audit done on these people, just imagine if they bill one customer for 10 calls that he has not made, imagine the profit that they will earn from the entire network. These airtel guys are ridiculous and are running an unethical business which will fall in the long run. Corporate customers beware! Do not enable autodebit for your airtel bill.

If you are a similar victim, please let me know my mail id is [protected]@yahoo.co.in

As I have not received bill dated 06-08-2012 and 06-09-2012 I am not in a position avail reimbursement from my office. my office authorized officer Mr. Mahesh wrote a mail to Mr. Prasanth the coordinator -airtel. so far I have not received these two bills. some one from 121 called me up and said the bill was sent to my office but refused to receive in office. I fail to understand how this happened since the bill is on office name and every day thousands of letters being delivered in my office and no time letters are refused to receive. Any way please help me getting these bills which would enable to get reimbursement from my office : You may send soft copies also to my office mail ID: swamylife@gmail.com alternately you may send to my office authorized person Mr. S Mahesh, GM Systems./or Mr. Anil mahantha

Airtel pay your bill by debit card not working

I hold a mumbai Airtel number since past 9 moths and im harassed! I cant even change the service provider as my number has become known in my circle.

its been 10 days that the my account is not accepting online payment of bills. The last date was 2 days back and i have to apy late payment fees also also now.

I have made numerous complaints, since past 10 days , on their customer care and their site account and they are unable to help me.

Their CSE tell me go personally to the Airtel shop and make a cash payment which is very far from my place.

I have sent mails and sent onsite complaints but there is no reply.

A company like Airtel has a pathetic Customer care who does not know any thing about their own site and its bugs and are unable to help me.

There have been major problems in the airtel signal also which there is no resolution uptil now, from the company.

All the complaints i make on their site are not actually resolved, but the company reps mark it as "closed"after a week automatically.

I do not recommend the product to anyone in Mumbai or elsewhere

Airtel is been the pathetic service provider. No one expected that they can be so worst in fulfilling the MUST BE requirements for the customer due to horrible network coverage, issues with the network, bad response to customer complaints so on and so forth. I think one should go for other subcribers and make them pay for their mistakes. Very sad to say that airtel only decided to react on this when they start loosing the customer base and
and hemmer their market reputation in such economical downturn whrer they should realize that customer is god for them.

Atlease i am definatly going to change my subscriber.

I am Mohd Shaukath, one of the Airtel Postpaid customers using [protected], which was disconnected as I have not paid the bill Rs. 2355/- before disconnection according to the SMS that I received on May 8, 2009, which I noticed on July 28, 2009, as I was hospitalized in the end of July 2009 in Care Hospital, Nampally, for replacement of Mitral Valve of my heart and presently taking rest, going to join my duties from September 1, 2009 onwards. Meanwhile, one of the Airtel executives called me up and told me to pay at least Rs. 2000/- to get the number reactivated, which I paid on July 30, 2009 with receipt number 104-[protected] and cust a/c number 104-[protected], but they have not reactivated my number.

Being a service related employee, I have given my number to so many customers and if that number does not work, my personal reputation as well as my company's reputation will come down.

I requested them number of times through calling them and sending them mails to (nodalofficer.andhra@airtel.in) asking them to look into the matter, react positively and reactivate my above stated number as soon as possible so that I can continue my normal lifestyle by being in contact with my customers.
Whatever the balance amount is there that I will pay once the number gets activated.

So far, no response from that end...

I have a post paid connection no [protected]. I n the name of SMS others I have been charged for unused and unwanted facilities not requested by me. I have last month clearly told your office staff by calling 121 that I don not want any facility other than missed calls alert. I was refunded Rs 220.00 last month. Again in this month's bill they have added Rs.91.00 towards SMS others. We don not want any ringtones club, 57575, [protected], 5511015,

Bill No.[protected].

Now I want refund of this Rs.91.00 and no future charges other than missed call alert.

If the bill again contains any unsolicited or unwanted charges I would be forced to take up the matter to Consumer Court.

I hope my request will fall into some working ears and solution found immediately.

Regards

Dear Sir,

The mobile No. [protected] was given to my company Sri Balaji Castings P ltd and the same was issued to me for company purpose. From the day I got the mobile I get calls from various people for promotional offer and calls asking for Mr. Benjamin William. Who is he. I would first like to know the service you people render. To check I contacted you hutch care and the person says that the No. would have been used by the above person and due to non usage for more than a month or so the no is shifted to us. We take the mobile from you only on belief that the service rendered by you is fine and good.

So I need an explanation regarding this immediately. Otherwise I will force my management to drop all the lines used by our company with immediate effect and also no call should reach me from today. Else I personally will take up necessary steps to launch a PIL, CPC proceeding against hutch for cheating the customers.

Act and respond immediately.

I am a airtel Postpaid customer and my mobile number is [protected]. I have taken this connection in 2005 and since then i have been availing of your service. Now i wanted to move to pre paid and when i approached the customer care centre at Pattom, trivandrum to know the proceedures and to get the deposit amount cleared - two days they said the server is down and the software is not working, etc. and on the third day they say, I haven't submitted any refundable deposit for a post paid connection with airtel. I have deposited Rs. 1500/- when i have taken the connection. Now they argue that my depositamount is Rs. 300/- and Without adequate deposit how did i get post paid connection. I dont expect this kind of irresponsible dealings from your end

Airtel customer service representatives do not pick up the calls after 2:00 A.M, even if they pick up the calls they either put the customer on hold and disconnect the call or they just disconnect the call with out talking to the customers.

Do not understand why Airtel is unnecessarily defaming ifself by hiring such kind of ineffecient personnel by which not only their fame is at stake but also these kind of people try to spoil the internal environment of the organisation.

Not sure how serious is Airtel going to take this complaint but intention of mine is to make them aware of the kind of service they have degraded by hiring such kind of employees who do not wish to work.

I very upset with this service provided by airtel. Witout giving any intimation, they have barred my out going calls. My Aunt was addmited in hospital and i couldnt make calls. The reason which they have mentioned was not paying the bill. I haven’t received my bill at my residential address nor at my cell phone. Without intimating that, so and so is my due date they had barred my calls. I had been to customer care relationship center and they said, my bill is not generated yet so it will take time. And one week before they had barred my service. This is strange .

Airtel complaint regarding the marking of wrong negative verification

I applied for new airtel post paid connection in the month of November, 2007. I paid 699/-rs in advance for one year rent. I got new mobile number from them which is [protected]. This number was barred within 5 5 days after activation. I called so many times at airtel customer care, all the time their executive noted my concern, but did not take any action till now. Not only executives, I talked Mr Narender Singh who is the shift incharge on the floor. I also visited at their 14 sector, Gurgaon office regarding this concern. But nobody helped me out .
All the time their executive and shift incharge asked my alternate number, I gave them my Team Leaders mobile number as well as Landline number. I also gave them my employee Id for verification. Neither their verification officer called me nor to my Team Leaders.
I am tired to call at their customer care number. I have left the hope to get the problem solve.

I think airtel recruited all the time JOKER for it's organization. All IT'S EMPLOYEE ARE JOKER. There are some name of it's organization worker.

SOHAN CUSTOMER CARE OFFICER, NARENDER SINGH SHIFT INCHARGE. AJEET SALES OFFICER. JITENDER ANAND CONTACT NUMBER [protected]. KHUSHWANT SAINI (TL)([protected], [protected]) SOME NAMES I FORGOT.
Now I don't want my new number to be activated. I just want to present complaint regarding all problems infront of consumer court and TRAI.

Let see what do they do for me.

I learnt a lessen and I will not recommend anybody for AIRTEL CONNECTION. I am using AIRTEL landline I will disconnect that and will not pay them bill.

Hey! My number too was demo 441 and was deactivated without prior notice on Feb 4 2011. On sending query4 times, first response was AIRTEL people told that I have requested for a plan change through SMS, second time they said that I recharged with booster 22, third time they said that I have wrongly pressed an option from a telemarketing call and finally the fourth time they said that the plan was withdrawn 2 years back. I was not satisfied with this response and wrote to 121@airtelindia.com and again to nodal officer. I have recorded all these interaction and have them as evidence. To the nodal officer I explained the matter clearly and proved that the mistake was not on my side. They have again given my plan back on 1st Mrach 2011.

Happy now.
