Airtel
Deactivation of services

I have taken a new post paid connection of mobile on 04.04. the details are as below:

Account No. 1023614363

Mobile No. 9784992000

On 27.04. suddenly outgoing call is stopped. I informed the same to customer care and the concerned person (Mr. Puneet) of Airtel Shoppee at Tonk road, jaipur from where I have taken this connection. While discussing it is found that this is happened because of residence address verfication. It is surprised to me that no one is visisted to verify the address.

Reply of airtel:

We would like to inform you that the Outgoing call service for your airtel mobile number 7600026744 has been deactivated with effect from 26-04 at 19:51:55 hours.

My reply:

On enquiring through customer help line number (i.e., 121) that out going services is barred because of address couldn't be verified.

How it is happened I do not know.

On the same address, today I recieved monthly bill through courier and few days back I recieved welcome letter. Had the address was not verified how these post are delivered.

Hence, I request you to kindly do needful at the earliest in order to restore the barred services it as it is already more than 60 hrs. You will appreciate that now a days without mobile it is difficult, hence, further delay may leads to the switching of operator at my end.

Dear Sharma Ji,

Does it it take so much of time to resolve such a small thing, the phone is deactivated since 27.04.2011 and today is 02.05.2011 and I am surviving without mobility. I feel that airtel is behaving like a state Govt. office where you have to wait for each & every instruction/decision/ facilities. I recieve your welcome letter, monthly bill on the same unverfied address.

It is really disgusting that a so called professionaly managed company behaves like this.

Dear Sharma Ji,

Everything is fine but tell me when my SIM will be activated.

I am without mobile since 27.04.2011 and requesting you and 121 by e-mail as well as telephonically but nothing happens neither address verification not SIM activation. Had it been known to me that this is the level of services you offered to your customer in this circle, I would have never come to airtel.

Similarly, I applied for airtel broadband and after one week your representative told me that it is not possible due to company’s policy than I went to BSNL, broadband as well as land line connection was done within 6 hrs of submission of forms & documents. This is for your information.

As you said my problem (service request No. 37117865) will be resolved by 9:30AM 04.05. I will wait only upto this time and at 9:31AM I will apply for new mobile connection with BSNL or any other. I request your office in that case please refund my security deposit necessary deduction, if any or after adjusting my usage.

Then on 1800 hrs on 03.05. suddenly mobile start working and on 04.05.2011 I ppaid the dues well before due date of 12.05.2011. On 09.05. a person came and verified the address and went with Ok as everything.

Now today again from 1200/12.05. all the services stopped.

so I write them as below:

Again You made the SIM inactive from 1200 hrs.

Why? Nobody knows. No information, suddenly you have stopped all the services.

Could you please inform me why is this so? I paid the bill well before time, security is lying with you.

Why You are doing again and again like a Dabba service provider who has no moral that these days how important is mobile connectivity. How one can help himself in case of any emergency with him. Now again after 10 days of service I am without SMS, Phone connection, even I cannot talk to your bullshit customer help.

If you can not provide the services please close down.

For your information, I am sending my grievances to times of India for publishing the same in suitable corner, pasting the same to facebook so that everybody should know how you are serving to your customer.
