Airtel Broadband
Excessive Bill Amount

1. This was my complaint to airtel on Friday, February 26 3:16 AM: sent to '[email protected]' & [email protected]

This is in regards to my Broadband bill that got generated on 23 Feb’10. It seems there is something grossly wrong with latest bill that got generated. I am disputing this bill for Rs. 8992.47 showing excessive usage of 8 GB over and above free 8 GB in the plan. For your reference, I am attaching a snippet of past month usage which clearly shows a clear variance in my usage pattern and this month’s bill, when there is no change have brought about in my usage habits.

Can someone please look into this and resolve the matter? I donot use internet to this extent that the download has doubled in a months time, which contradicts my past usage pattern.

Since no one contacted me to discuss the reason for escalation and Airtel close this issue at the first level i escalated it to Appellate office with this mesaage and till date i have not received any response from them & they have barred my services stating non payment of dues, which is what i am disputing.

Hi Team,

Please take this forward and let me know about the proceedings. Just verifying it at your end and not even hearing my side of the story is not enough. It will be good if someone can contact me to discuss this issue.

Thanks..
