and numerous other unfortunate customers of Airtel broadband. When i read these stories i see so much similarity that this cannot be a coincidence. In a way it seems as this is the standard procedure/code-of-conduct by airtel for any braodband cancellations?
Why is this sadistic approach taken by Airtel? Who is gaining from this, other that few sadistic employees of airtel I don’t think anybody ( I mean even Airtel) has anything to gain from this! OR is it driven at an organization level?? Do they think harrased customers (busy with their life) will finally just feel relieved to get rid of the connection and hence would not want to pursue the matter further in any consumer court? It’s really shameful that an Indian company like Airtel applies such tactics. Read through and see if Airtel’s actions make any sense at-all!!
Below is that details of the issue that I am facing: landline number 08040985325 and reference number for Airtel nodal office: 11466840. The issue is not yet resolved; it took almost 2 Months just to make a disconnection happen!!(Happened on 21^st feb , while request made on 29 December,) This after escalating the issue to Nodal office. Still they say that bill for Jan-5 to Feb 5 is pending and they will evaluate and tell me exactly how much I have to pay. As per your Manual of Practice once a request for disconnection is made, billing has to stop within next 24 hours. I am not paying a single paisa to Airtel, I got a log of requests that I had made with Airtel, It is very clear from the log that I have made cancellation request on 28 December.
