Airtel Post Paid
Non - refund of security deposit

Dear,

Inspite of repeated mails regarding refund of deposit, since last 6 months, Airtel is only sending a new reference number each time.

This unethical practice has to be exposed.

Can somebody look into the matter.

Subject: Direction under Section 13 read with Section 11 (1)(b)(i) & (v) &
