Airtel review: harassment by airtel telecaller 85

I am post paid customer of Airtel India. I have opted 499 previelage plan. Air ticket for free was offered. I paid registration rs 500 extra, but still waitting for tickets... can i go to consumer court?

I took a sim of prepaid airtel connection at bhubaneshwar. even after 9 days it has not been activated. When i called airtel customer care i was told that the did not know why this was so and also NOT to call them up with such petty quires! To think this is to be expected from a reputed indian firms customer care.

Airtel offering ring tones for free, don't subscribe. They are charging from next month. This is common with many subscribers of land line and mobile phone in all over India. I am also one of the customers.

I was using the rate plan of Rs 299. Airtlel costumer care people called me and told me to change the rate plan for Rs399/-, because i was interested to take the free flight offer,for this for i payed RS 500/- deposit also, this free flight offer was taken on jan12th 2006, i am raising a case on this .

Your tell call executive will be not correct please dismiss on that employs at that net work is very good present is very very waste profarmance in Ap

Very very poor service.Totally dissatisfied with EVERYTHING AIRTEL
RUN if you can before they break your bank.

I am forced to abuse them... they are shameless and moneysuckers.

A similar thing is happening to my friend. He had two numbers, one is active and the other blocked because of amount due, which is fair. My friend is asking for time to settle the amount (it is less than 4k), and not refusing to pay. My friend has defaulted but not refusing to pay. Worst is Airtel can send a legal notice and settle it in a court of law. But the telecaller is calling the numbers that are contacted through the other active number. This information obviously is provided by Airtel but Airtel also sends a mail expressing concern in response to the complaint. Effective double-game by Airtel. My friend is about to contact cyber crime for harrassment and abusive language.

HI All,

I'm one of the golden customer since 6 years for Airtel and I would like to request you to inform i:e.

I would like to request you to cancel mobile no: +91 [protected].

This is for your information that Rs.420.00 charges against GPRS (Which we it was activated unnecessary; without intimating me).

Hence, I will be paying this balance amount of Rs.1500.00 and closing my account.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this,

Please call me for mobile no: [protected] or rajeevnbangalore@gmail.com.

Thanks and regards,

Rajeev N

I have airtel connection no.[protected] and been a loyal airtel user. I have recharged with Rs.222 recharge card along with Rs.100 supporting card on 29th March 209 vide transaction numbers [protected] & [protected], but it went to other mobile no.[protected] instead of my [protected]. Immediately the dearler sent SMS to 52212 and said within 24 working hours my balance will be refunded to me. Since then I have been making rounds to his counter day in and day out but everytime he is saying some technical issue is there and will be solved within 24 hrs. I have been to Airtel Begumpet Head Office, Hyderabad where they inturn told to contact the dealer. The dealer is not co-operating and saying to contact customer care. Thus so far its been more than one month and I did not receive the balance back. Its very unfortune to Airtel Brand to suffer its loyal customer so long.

I expect atleast now my problem will be solved from your end.

Yours loyal customer,

I got my Airtel CUG number on 19th Dec, 2008. It got activated on 21st Dec and on 27th Dec all outgoing calls were blocked. Why? Because my address verification was not done as I was not at home when the verification person arrived. After that, I've made innumberable calls to the customer care in Pune to send the Verification person again. At first they told me to go to the nearest Airtel center to submit the documents which when I did go to turned very dissappointing. I was told they cant help me with this and only the customer care can. The customer tells me the other way round. Also I requested for a soft copy of my billed amount which was not sent. I must say, the carelessness with which the customer care has handled my account is astonishing. I never expected this of Airtel and after being a loyal customer for long I will actively dissuade my friends not to buy Airtel. My problem is still not resolved and my security money of 500 is still stuck with them. A highly incompetent workforce.

pls send my easyecharge password

give my easyrecharge password

When i was given my sim card i was told airtel is putting a signal tower in my area (mhada colony, mulund east) as there is signal problem in my area. Even after 2 months after actvating my card signal problem excisted. Twice i made the complaint, Problem was not solved. Next i requested to cancell my card as i was paying more because of signal problem.I was told by your executive that he is giving me a zero rental plan where i dont have to pay any rent for the period of 6 months, by that time tower will be installed.but he cheated me by putting me in 150 plan with 50% discount.i request you to kindly look into my matter and return my payment which airtel has deducted from my creditcard account from the time of changing my plan .my previous complaint no is [protected]. I spoketo your executive she is not willing to listen.Plesse call me on my vodaphone no [protected]

My Airtel mobile no. is [protected] of Delhi

This mobile of mine is having life time card
My connection has been disconnected
May please be restored.

Please Treat this as an URGENT message

I have been holding mobile No. [protected] a corporate number since 2000. Of late there is a severe tampering by Airtel Staff by deactivating my out-going services. Despite several reminders my line is never the same and it takes nearly 3 to 4 days after several calls to some known Airtel staffs the line will be restored and just after some days they would deactivate by mobile number exclusively. I am a heart patient during emergency if I cannot use my mobile phone how it can be handy.

Kindly take this message serious and advice your staffs in Chennai that they are paid to work more professionally and not fool around like an unorganised sector. Thanking you for your understanding in this matter. W Regards Manasseh Joseph

i am working in m/s.chandra shekar & company(construction)
even i had horrible experience with customer care and collection department of airtel.

we have taken group connection from airtel. i got a bill for all the ten phones plus they have added one time charges of rs.450/- in the first bill. I complained the same to customer care but i did not get any clarification from the airtel. i paid the bill. and again now in the second bill they included rs.1609.00 as one time charges. I got astonished, I paid the bill after deducting the one time charges from it. but for the last 4 days i have been tortured by the collection department of airtel. they made several calls to all our nos. and harassed us to pay the balance. I said till i receive the details from Airtel i will not pay the "One Time Charges. to-day i.e., 25-08-2008 they simply disconnected my outgoing service. Nobody in the Air tel office knows the details for the one time charges. What I meant to say is Airtel is behaving like a monarch and pressurising the customers to pay the bill without asking for any details. otherwise they will disconnect our phones and put us into trouble. this is ridiculous. The Higher Management of Airtel should look into the matter and see that such type of mistakes should not repeat in future. Otherwise airtel will loose its credibility and lost its busines in the near future.

Hope that conccerned authorities will look into the matter and take approapriate steps to improve the service to the customers of Airtel.

Hi,

I'm using Airtel Prepaid connection. I want to activate GPRS settings to my mobile. My mobile model is KAIQI - V180.

I have called so many times to customer care for GPRS settings. They are not responding. I went to Airtel office. There also I have face same problem. Till now I didn't get GPRS Settings from Airtel people.

Hi,

I have been using airtel for last 5 yrs but services in Pune are really poor. I am not able to connect anyone during the day time since I do not get any network services in Quadra II Opposite Maggarpatta, Hadapsar, Pune.

I am not able to understand how come they show advertisements that says airtel services in ladhak like places but not in Pune which is really an IT city where communication is utmost important.

As per your massage few days back I recharged with Rs21/- & got Rs15/- for talk time from Airtel to Airtel &50 local sms free to other network,but when I do local sms to other network I found that main balance of my mobile([protected]) has been deducted by your end.

As per your massage I should get 50 local sms absolutely free. but I did not have that. Therefore I would request you to get back my main balance which was deducted for your local sms as early as possible. If not, I am sorry to say I will quit from your network connection immediately.
