Airtel review: ignorance towards the customer! 69

I have purchased two prepaid cards & that time the call rates was Airtel to Airtel 20 paise / Other mobiles Rs.1 / STD Rs.2.
But now after 3-4 months the tarrifs suddenly increased without any intimation as.
local call = Rs.2.25
STD call = Rs.2.50
This is a clear cheating.

Myself Mahesh .mobile no. [protected].i got a message on [protected].according to this message i have been charged rs 5 for FHMVOD ON AIRTEL LIVE from 54321. but i did not activate any service on airtel live. i loss my 20 rupees in this service.that`s does not matter. i complianted many times but no one cares.first i maked a call to 12143 they said make a call to 121. then i maked a call to 121 but they said to dial 12143. so that means i did not get any clear answer from custmer care .
so please take a effective step as soon as possible.and refund my money back.

AIRTEL should be banned in India and Mr. Mittal should be thrown to lions or behind bars... bloody hell

IF customers got rejected for Airtel prepaid account, your agents are not willing to return the (id proof and other docs) proofs which the customer has given before. This might cause a serious problem in future by mis-using these proofs by the agents. This is for your information.
My self i am HariBabu, i have applied for a prepaid account on February 7th, 2009 and submitted the Residency proof of rental agreement and 2 passport photos. Same day number got activated and after 3 days de-activated saying that rental agreement is not valid.
After some days i have submitted another proof of voter id and 2 photos of my wife. Still my account doesn't got activated. They have given a reason that, since i have given the proofs one month later, this SIM card is not valid.
Okey, i am fine with that and i have requested my proofs to return to me. After many times visit, they are saying that If the connection got rejected, they dont return the proofs to any body. Please take some necessary action in this regard and do needful in this matter.

Dear Customer Care Executive,

From 04.03.2009 onwards my account has been debited with Rs. 0.33 every day. The toal amount that has been deducted is Rs. 16.60 till today, 22.04.2009. I have been continuously making a call at customer care number but I use to get only fake promises that it will be deactivated and for my satisfaction they use to send any sms; for your reference please find the details as mention below:

07.04.2009 Reference number [protected]
11.04.2009 SMS from 250 intimating that the service will be deactivated by 72 hours.
17.04.2009 SMS from 250 intimating that the service will be deactivated by 72 hours.
18.04.2009 Reference number [protected]

But till date the problem is unresolved. I request you to kindly note about this issue and help me get the refund back.

Hoping for the best service and immediate action, I will be waiting for your positive reply.

Thank you,

Satishmohan.

WORST AFTERSALE SERVICE BY AIRTEL

airtel is proving to be the worst service provider amongst its competitors. It's bosses are sleeping ignoring clients grievances. The day is not away when customer will not look at it. It is still not late for its bosses to wake up and look at after sale services. Following is the horrific experince I have also faced rather still facing:

I am your prepaid connection custmer. My mobile no is [protected]. I activated my GPRS connection, but without any downloading you will cut several rupees at several time. So, i am to irritate your services. So i wants that you will deactivate GPRS connectio on my number.

Thanks & Regards

Dear All,

I have lost my mobile so required the same number. so I went to the Airtel office which is situated in Grugaon in Sahara Mall on 16th March 2008 at 16:00, after submitting all the required documents I purchased a duplicate sim @ 75ruppes and was informed that my number would be activated in next 4 hrs so I filled the great feedback form for them But, still my calling are barred both incoming and outgoing, I called up many times to Airtel customer care helpline number ([protected]) but every times I got the nonsense replied saying that it will take another 4 hrs as it would be handled from the office where this sim was given. Also inform you that after dialing the helpline number calls were disconnected and got the sms from them to give the feedback. I just want to ask them what we should to write if our problem has not been resolved and just waiting for any a single response
My number is 91-[protected]; any prompt response will be highly appreciated.

Also would like to share one more thing that I have been using this number for last 4 years and not got any trouble before this one, however this is the first time I have been facing such kind of worst one,

Please do call me or write me any mail regarding this, waiting for your positive response
Thanks & Regards

A deduction of Rs.630/- has been made from my outstanding balance on 25.2.2009 from my Airtel Prepaid Number [protected] on account of various Airtel Service like [protected], [protected], [protected] etc.whereas I has neither subscribed any of such service nor downloaded any of these contents. I simply tried to login Yahoo Messger WAP portal but failed time and again. The matter was brought to the notice of Customer Care at 121 as well as GPRS technical helpline but no satisfactory reply was given.

This is also brought to the notice that I am using this number from November, 2003 and I have never downloaded any of such contents ever. The matter may be looked into failing which I will be compelled to discontinue the said services due to the charges willfully imposed for the services not utilised by me.

Mobile No: +[protected].

My no. is [protected]. My account got deducted from rs.241 to rs.211 on 22nd april 2008 & the reason for that i received a sms stating that i have activated some tuney talk service rs.20 for that & rs.10 for changing the song. The very first thing i have not activated any tuney talk on my no. Airtel can check my call history or the CDR history. secondly when ever i am making the call to customer care either they are disconnecting the line or they are saying system under upgradation. i have not activated any thing on my this no. any thing means anything no callertune no missed call alert. nothinh. but then also this Airtel company needs money to pay their executives their salary so their are doing such unacceptable things. But how any company can deduct the charges for the things which they have not done?

I recharged three times to prepaid No; +[protected] by Online on yesterday.Each time for Rs.121.00/-. This Amount debited by ICICI NRI Account on 15 .04 .2008 ( Today ). But this amount did't credited this prepaid mobile number.
Details of BIll:
15/04/08 - BIL/[protected]/0107/[protected] -Rs.121.
15/04/08 - BIL/[protected]/0107/[protected]- Rs.121.
15/04/08 - BIL/[protected]/0107/[protected] - Rs.121.

Please, Kindly take necessary action and do needfull.

Your sincerly,
Balasubramani Shanmugam.

I am using Airtel prepaid services for last seven months. I find it a better one in connectivity. But many times I had observed that if I made a call for 1:59 minutes they charged me the amount of 3 minutes but I ignore it. But now its an extreme condition on 10 of Feb I had gone to Delhi and my prepaid mobile is in roaming for the first time. The charge of outgoing call and incoming come were deducted normally from my balance, but their was no deduction from my balance when I send an SMS. I thought may be in roaming SMS services are free so I had send many SMS. After coming back to my circle their was no deduction of charge. But when I recharged my mobile with an easy recharge all my balance becomes not zero but negative. I had made a 100 rs recharge firstly 49 rs are deducted then 8 then 16 and till night its -49. I had contacted to customer care executive when 16 rs were deducted he told me that its by fault and if you recharge your mobile know no charge will be deducted. I want to ask that if in roaming sms is charged then why its not charged that time so that i dont do so many sms. If its due to system failure then whats is my fault in it and why should I pay. In this way you are not only making fools of the innocent peoples but you will loosing you costumers,if someone ask me about airtel connection you know what I do. Its not the way. You are not only the service provider in the market. One more thing more your sevice slogan should be "AISEE BARBADI OR KAHAAN" Thanks [protected]
