Non responsive customer care service
I have called airtel customer care for applying for a new mobile connection. The customer care executive told me to send a SMS on 121 for new connection. I did the same and got auto reply for the SMS. But till now nobody has contacted us regarding the request. And also i have called for transfer of broadband from laptop to desktop but nothing is been done regarding this and now i am thinking to disconnect the broadband service.

Services highly crooked!
I recently had some problem with my mobile bills, or rather they had some problem.It was like this - I got the bill for my mobile use for the month of June by the end of June and was given a due date of 18th July for payment. I had made the payment by july 17th. And since 18 th July I have been getting several calls from the airtel accounts department regarding the confirmation of my bill payment. Every time they call me and inquire if I had paid the bill and I say 'yes', their job is done right there, they hang the phone down. They neither really confirm if the payment is done on their records nor are they bothered about the 'customer service'. They nearly confused me, every time they call me to confirm if I had paid the bill, my yes was all they hear to, they don't even talk anything more, as though their confirmation is over! yet again they repeatedly kept calling me- confusing me every time. Finally after 15 days they suddenly canceled my outgoing facility - and I was out of station.Though I was not in town I was continuing to receive these bill confirmation calls, where in once even I asked them if they were intentionally trying to increase my roaming bill! Finally when I come back and call the customer support and question them with all high tones and anger, now they budge a little to actually verify if the payment was done. they ask me a couple of more questions as to the date of payment , the bill no...etc. After checking his records, he suddenly tries to close the issue saying - 'okey you have made the payment, I will initiate your service again'. Another word with a little more frustration from my side, he starts apologizing and accepting the mistake on their part. This just shows how unprofessional the organization is being carried and their indifferent attitude towards customers. I don't really find a single reason for private players to boast about their services especially comparing themselves with government services!!When I ask some more details as to who was responsible to update these details?, why was it not updated and I would like to make a complaint about that person - everything goes unanswered! There is no transparency in their system either!And finally I was at loss for not getting service for about 5 days!

Now what I would seriously like to know is that - is there something that I can claim from airtel for the loss of service without any mistake of mine! Would I still have to pay the rental for those 5 days where my service was barred, in my next bill?

I understand business organizations are very profit oriented - but should limit themselves only to the service they provide to the customers - NOT at the cost of their customers!! I would really want some guy from airtel to take up this issue as a challenge, try and explain me the attitude with which all this was carried on-- is it that you are DOUBTing your customers? It does not for sure seem to anybody like it is just a ' mistake' , it has to be something more than that, should try and address that greater issue by actively developing a more professional attitude, improving the quality in the procedures followed for internal management... etc.

SMS from unknown number
From last two months I am getting some technical sms from airtel number 9940028953 at least 20 times a day even at night time also... So many time I made a complaint with them... but they have not taken any action... so many times sent mails and call 121. Every time they are telling it will be solved with in 48 hrs... so far no action has been taken... Very poor service

Poor service!
I am not able to unsubscribe to picture message service, which got activated accidentally. Money is being daily deducted.

Also I am unable to unsubscribe to missed call alerts.

Useless Service as well Executive!
Despite being paid the bill, airtel has disconnected my telephone without informing me. Last bill i received was an amount of Rs. 3165, which was wrong, also accepted by one of air tel representative called Anjali Chaudhary (124-4005900).

Ms. Chaudhary has called me that you have been given a waiver of amount 600/- and accordingly, next day she sent a representative to collect the payment and i gave a cheque of Rs. 2600/ on the same day to air representative.

Finally, my telephone was restored after 5 days of payment and again after 2 days, it was disconnected without any information. When i contacted their executive, i learnt that I have not been given any wavier and so it was disconnected.

I would like to request any senior official of airtel to justify their action, as i am getting disappointed to call their call center representative, who does not have proper information of previous cases, besides, always prove inability to answer customer question.

Delay/non-performance!
I requested Airtel for shifting my residence phone within GUrgaon on 18th July. Today is 27th July. They have not done so. They claim that if the phone remains dead for more than four hours, they'd pay a compensation of Rs. 100/per hour! I'd be a rich man without a phone if Airtel lives up to its boast (and does not shift my phone).

Long live India Shining. Bharti (owners of Airte) is India's showpiece communication company.Can anyone forward it to Airtel, as when I wanted to complain to a supervisor, I was made to hold for over ten minutes. I lost my patience after that looong hold.


Unfortunate customer of Airtel!

Poor service!
I got a call from 9935012345 stating about some india england series... to get updates... i denied right then and inspite of doing so the service is activated on the number and i was charged rs.99... and the second problem is that i never requested for any hello tunes service and its activated on my number too..and now when i want to deactivate it..they give me such numbers which never connects... all i get to hear is "ALL LINES ARE BUSY PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER"...

Customers beware!

Worst network coverage in Hyderabad!
I am using airtel since 8years... till last year it was too good in everything... but this year its network is become worst... and the calls are getting disconnected in between the talk... and some times network is getting shoot up n down like a music visual display...

I think they should just close the company if they doesn't work on it...

Scheme changed without notice!
Using one of leading company in Coimbatore AIRTEL CUG plan for the last 2 years.they changed my without prior notice and charged accordingly. Customer care named jagadees of 98940 10244 is one of the worst i had ever seen giving false commitments for the last 2months. AIRTEL coimbatore will take action for that or they are also interested in this cheating business. My advice is don't use AIRTEL.

I am suggesting my friends not to take AIRTEL (if they want their money).
