your agency at faridabad nh 1 ( vigi communication) is a fraud, as he( upender) misuses one customer's identification for other customer connection. if someone faces legal action against him then it is the sole responsibility of airtel.

Dear Customer Services authorities,

Na to koi phone uthata hai, na hi koi email ka reply karta hai, customer services center pe jate hain to ve kahte hain ki humen kuchh nahin pata, to fir ye department hi kyon khol ke baithe ho..band kar do, airtel aur sarkari seva me koi antar hi nahin hai...

I have deposited all documents twice...list time i deposted on 15.10.08, but till today there is no reply, sim is connected till today..

What a Ghatiya Service it is ! you should be ashmed...

Thanks

Dear Sir
I have purchased above mobile connection no.[protected] in the month of 19Dec.2007. Other details of the connection are:

Sim no.[protected]
Pack in Oct.2007
Type: H-2 CARD
This is a prepaid connection with life time validity plan.

In this connection I would like to say that it was working till 21st May2007 night and on morning of 22nd May screen of the mobile was blank only showing "SIM CARD REJECTED"
message.
We checked it with other hand set.there also same message came.

Upon this we talked to customer care and they have reffered me to contact Airtel stores and on contacting to Airtel store in Ballabhgarh Haryana, Without even seeing or checking the SIM simply told me that the SIM is defective and i have to purchase the New Sim card with the cost of Rs.125/-

It seems that the SIM has gone defective of its own while in normal use which was varified by your service engineer. If you feel that the same SIM can be made serviceable then please suggest me the proper solution otherwise arrange to replace it with new SIM card with out charging cost from me.
I would like to hear from you very soon with satisfactory solution as this is hampering my regular work.

Thanks & regards,

my # is [protected], I had applied for STD PRE on April 01 08'. I was told it will get activated within the next 72 hours. It did not get activated within 72 hours. I called up up customer care, the person had a communication gap and could not explain to me, I asked for the supervisor.The supervisor (Mr. Ramesh) gave me the consent that it will get activated within the next 48 hours. On Apr 05 08 I received a sms that Rs 15 was deducted from my balance on account of Missed called alerts. I called up Customer care immediately and they told me that they have registered a complaint and suggested me to call after 24 hours to know the status. I called up Customer care after 24 hours and the call was handled very unprofessionally, he told me that no complaint was registered and the missed call services was not updated from my side, he gave me the wrong info that my STP PRE was already activated. I told him it was not correct and I requested him to give me the correct update or transfer the call to supervisor if he was not able to give me a valid explanation, he refused to do so. He deliberately disconnected the call. I called back and spoke to the same person and spoke to the same person. I told him that the service has not been activated as I had called an Air Tel no in West Bengal and Rs 2.65 was deducted. He refused to understand and asked me to call after 24 hours I mentioned to him that I had called couple of times and had got no results. I requested him that I had called Customer care and got no proper resolution for the problem and it would be of great assistance if he would allow me to speak to the supervisor, he was very bold and refused to transfer the call and he hung upon the phone for the second time, he showed no customer service attidute. He also passed lewed comments. It is an insult to the reputation of the company. His name was Mr. Sanjay

AIRTEL CONNECTION No.[protected]

Dear Sir,

Jab se yeh connection liya hai sadar bazar, teliwara mein iska network hi nahi ata. Customer care par yei jawab milta hai 15 din mein thik ho jayega 3 months ho gaye koi sunwai nahi. Bahur Gandi service hai. Customer care par complatins karo to kahte hain ki apki complaint noe hai aur phone kat deta hain. Is intizar main ki service kab sahi ho maine apna mobile hi band kar diya. Mera hutch ka number hai [protected].
