I am trying from the past 1 month to get my bill clarified from your cust. care deptt, but up to my shock & frustration, each time I need to message them, as your IVR suggests & when I send message, I get a very irritating reply to elaborate on the issue every time, which I can't as I've other works to do.I asked them in the message that I am facing 3-4 issues, so better call me once & get all my doubts answered, BUT NO RESPONSE!!!

I am completely exhausted with this--A SIMPLE 10 MINUTES ISSUE TAKES A MONTH & STILL PENDING WITHOUT ANY RESOLUTION--PATHETIC & SHAMEFUL SERVICES.

RESOLVED

The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.

Same is the issue with me.
Now I've decided to switch over to Hutch with my other staff & friends of approx. 50 Airtel users to HUTCH.
Atleast someone is there to listen, not like your GOOD FOR NOTHING SERVICES.

I have a new postpaid connection and I am facing some problem. An unknown person calls me and say that he is an employee of Okhala Airtel outlet.He also says that my mob. no. has already been issued to another person. Please tell me how a number can be issued to two person at one time. Another problem is I have paid the connection charge(Rs. 998.00) but whenever I dial *121*4# I get a message on screen "Your last three payments are .01 -Jun-07. Rs Rs.998.00 view & pay your Bills at www.airtel.in. Cheats!

I have remanded your customer care service number of times that I do not receive your bill in time before actual due date & on reminder I receive duplicate bill after a month. It is a shame to deal with you & your customer care. Know my bill is due on 06/ 09/ 2007 & i have reminded number of times for bill but of no avail. Now I am not going to make any payment & going to fila case against you in consumer court for not providing services for which you charge for If my phone is discontinued.

I am Airtel postpaid customer and have received a very bad customer service response from your executive ARUN when I called him on 13th Nov at 4.00pm in eve, he didn't gave me any response and went off line without saying anything, I wanted to deactivate my VCC 2000 for which haven't received any PIN NO till time and asked me to forward the call to his senior and as accepted he didn't.

I am a frequent user of VCC but every time in my bill I get additional VCC charged and then on continuous reminder from my end and getting back to your customer care executive and remind them for the due date it gets cancelled their say there will book the callback but till date no calls have been received.

Very Sorry to say that if this the response which we get from Airtel then soon we have to switch over to some other network where at least customers complaints are given some importance and priority.

I have a mobile postpaid connection which i have been using from last almost 10years and a land line n broadband connection which i took 3 months back.

With Mobile postpaid- evey now and then I have been facing problems. In spite of asking for DND I have been getting telemarketing calls and most of them are from Airtel itself.

In Oct'07 I called the customer care & told them that i was out of town due to some emergency and will be back by the 1st week of Nov so whatever outstanding for this month will be cleared when I am back and they should not disconnect my services. In spite of telling them in advance my no was deactivated on 30 Oct'07.

I came back on 3rd Nov.'07 Paid in cash at the Airtel outlet the very same day. I was told there is some update is going on so the activation of my services will be done after 4-6 hours. My no started working only the next day. Since then I have been receiving at least 10 calls a day to make the payment which was already made on 3rd NOv. & till today i.e.15th Nov this payment is not posted in my account though it was a cash payment.

Again my no is blocked since yesterday without any intimation as usual. In spite of giving all the details getting the complaint nos. When called in the morning today at 10am I was told that my no will be activated by 11am now its 2.30pm and am still waiting for that one hour to be over which was communicated to me by Ms.Suman - shift in charge Airtel customer care. Now when someone calls on my no the msg they get is - THIS NO DOES NOT EXIST.

Airtel broadband I took 2gb plan with 2mbps speed for Rs.700 a month and without even using it have been getting bills for 5000 /7000 and the latest bill though my line is deactivated since aug. is again showing some usage which I am failed to understand when Airtel's line not activated how their software is getting data for the usage which was not being used. I have spoken to n no of people if required i can provide at least 20 names and nos of the persons i have spoken to but no one was of any help. Now when i am trying to settle everything and close this account there is no response from Airtel.

Is there anyone who can be of any help.

I am using corporate connection of Airtel, I took this connection on 18 july07. I had already deposit all the doc regarding corporate connection. I took this connection from Annu communication Gurgaon. I called at your customer care from changing my plan, I was shocked to know that my connection was not corporate but individual. After logging complaint, now it is converting into corporate. I want to take corporate plans. Plz let me know what should I do to take all the benefits of corporate plans.

Waiting for an early reply.

Airtel, this is the hope less and stupid customer care dept in the world and useless company..

One of my friends number has been disconnected because of excess bill he couldn’t able to pay the bill for 5 days because he was out of station. Last week on 25th November he paid the bill, till now his number was not activated where as he has to make urgent calls and receive important communications.

When I approached the customer care dept. the call has connected to the product service department they says the call can not be forwarded to the cust care dept from them, so I have to call them directly how funny with the in the same company there is not link with the each other department and solve the customer problems.. finally the cust care executive said, my problem can not been rectified, for the inquiry I have to visit Airtel office in Gujarat, then I told It is not possible to either me or my friend to visit the same still they says there are no other options.. how stupid company.. when the company accepts the online payments can’t they provide online solutions or immediate solutions to their users. Why should people go for Airtel when other company is providing satisfying services with low rates.. no way they should not.

I too using the Airtel connection since 4 years.. now I fed up with the way of customer treated and unsolved issues I decided to go for other service provider and I am going to advice all my friends and employees of company who are having 30 Airtel connections to disconnect this stupid connection and go for the other best service providers in the industry.

And I also suggest the persons whoever is reading this complaint please don’t opt for the Airtel, its such a stupid and hopeless company.

A-30, Saidullajab, Mehrouli – Badarpur Road
New Delhi - 110 030

Sub: Recharge of Pre-Paid Mobile Phone No. 9871 555 375
Ref: Successful Recharge done vide TXID = 1005137054 on
27.11.2010 at 11:48:50 hrs by M/s Manali – STD - PCO
D-12, Sector-07, ROHINI, New Delhi -110 085
Dear Sir,
I got the Mobile No. 9871555375 of my daughter ( REKHA KUMARI) charged successfully for Rs.298/= vide TXID=1005137054 on 27.11.2010 at 11:48:50 hrs by M/s Manali-STD-PCO, D-12, Sector-07, ROHINI, New Delhi -110 085.
When the said re-charged was confirmed, we got the announcement that this “number does not exist” . This announcement was surprising to us. It was confirmed personally from your company Customer Care Centre at E-1, Sector 07, Rohini, that the
Mobile No. 9871555375 has been closed and no reason was intimated to me.
This number is very old and at the time of booking all formalities were completed by submitting the Name and Address Proof and Photo and this was closed / disconnected with out any reason to my daughter.
If the number was closed why the successful payment was accepted by your system as mentioned above. Why this latest status of the connection was not checked before accepting the recharge by your software resulting harassment to customer. The facts may kindly be verified and confirmed.
Now it is requested either re-connect the same No. 9871555375 or the said payment may be refunded at an early date. If she did not get the payment in time then she is free to go to consumer court. Thanks

Dear Airtel

Greetings of the day !!

This is in regards to an amount of 4098.60 which has been charged to me as GPRS
usage amount, I have following reservations on this which are listed as
follows:-

• Airtel connectivity activated on the phone in the month of August
2010, all bills realised till date and amount of approx 50, 000 has been paid by
me as telephone charges which stands correct.

• In the month of April I procured an I Phone on which also I got
connected to my mails and used it extensively as always but for a shock that
the amount charged this time was 4098 INR

• I lodged a complaint on 29th May 11 with Mr Girish request number
:37673834, and as informed waited for a revert from Airtel till 31st May 11.

• On 31st May on not receiving any call spoke to Salim Basha who
informed that the revert would come in by today evening (31st May 11)

• On 2nd June not hearing from anyone from Customer care I called again
and spoke to Ms Deepa who read the resolution to me and informed that the back
end team has informed us to take the money from the customer as he has used the
service, which I am also not denying but on what basis was I charged when I
even did not ask for GPRS to be Activated on my I ¿PHONE .

• Ok after that was informed to speak to nodal officer again a negative
reply backend has informed us ; than what is the point of escalating the call.

• Later called Mr Subbaramaniam appellate officer who kept mentioning
but Sir you have used the services and I kept informing him yes I used the
services but without knowing the charges and not getting any intimation and
even without asking for the services to be initiated on my phone.

Could someone with authority please look into this issue in complete detailing
and revert at the earliest to the undersigned.

Thanks

Hi... I have taken airtel postpaid number, and registered complaint so many times for the network problem i am facing..Everyone who is calling me getting a message tht my mobile is out of reach, when it is not. I am fed up of calling customer care 121, with no results. My complaint number is 73529322, i also had airtel prepaid before which i was using since many years, and tht never gave so much trouble. But i am extremely dissapointed with this. Inface postpaid custmor are also giving monthly rent, so whats the use of it, if they cannot get good and prompt services. Kindly help.My mobile number is 9650731133.

By last month i changed my airtel prepaid to postpaid connection, even i submitted all the necessary documents(including photo) and registration fees.Last week i asked them to activate ISD calls they told me that still now your address verfication is in pending, i told that one of your official came to home and got signed by my mother and also one of your official spoked me and explained all the details about the plan and billing details, but they didnt gave proper feedback.But today (i.e)12thjuly11 by 10pm my mobile showing that my sim is invalid and i called customer care they are saying that still now we didnt receive your photo and proof so your connection is temporarly stopped.Now my question is will your company provide me Prepaid or Postpaid Simcard without getting my photo and proof? How can you stop my connection without giving prior intimation to me.
