Hi

This is suvendu working with IBM.
I am very much frustrated about Airtel which they dissatisfy me on their
services.
I dont know what I can do. They were not responding me also.
After all 2 months I got this id to commnicate.
So please read this and help me in this regards.

Scenario
=======

I taken a airtel DTH with 6 months free subscription. After using 3 months
I transferred it to my native.
As per airtel Customer Care they told me to deposit Rs 600 in my account.
I deposited the same and expected the connection placed in my native on
the date (12 June 2009) as this date was given by Airtel it self.

But since today its almost 2 month over there is no response from them.
While calling them they are giving me different causes and not giving me
a proper answer.
Also they are not responding properly, Hanging my call for 1 hour and
cutting the call.

Please help in this so that I can get the same services.

Thanks
Suvendu

Dear Sir,
I fully agree with several statements appearing in the forum that Airtel
Digital TV is one of the worst of the DTH service providers added to the
fact that they a pathetic record of handling or responding to Customer
Complaints either by email or telephone.

I would require an immediate explanation & resolution from Airtel Digital TV
for the following:

We had installed the DTH unit in Feb/09 with South Mega package. On 14th
Aug/09, it was noticed that some of Malayalam & Kannada channels are not
being received. From my online account I could check that a 6 months of
South Mega subscription has been activated on 14th Aug/09 by debiting
Rs.1638 from my account. My questions are:

a) Who authorised this debit ? None of the family members have requested
this. Can Airtel advice name, telephone number, date & time of this request
? (Airtel is supposed to have a call validation process in place).

b) If South Mega has been activated, why are we not receiving some of the
channels which were part of the package earlier ? (e.g: Asianet, Asianet
Plus, Kairali, Zee Kannada, TV 9 Kannada etc.

c) If Airtel has changed channels in the bouquet, that is not acceptable as
my selection of Airtel was based on channels in the bouquet offered. You
cannot keep changing channels available in the bouquet.

d) I have sent several emails to Airtel Digital TV Customer Service (from
Contact Us option on the website) with not a single response.

e) I have made connection on a dozen times (after nearly scores of attempts)
however either the customer service representatives puts me on hold & the
calls get disconnected or they are least interested in resolution of problem
at hand.

It appears that Airtel has made connection with their customer service unit
so difficult that frustrated customers are left with no choice but to grin &
bear the pathetic service meted out or turn to other efficiently managed DTH
service providers.

Dear sir,

Iam D.Arockiadass from pune,maharastra working as a vehicle testing engineer at TATA
motors pune. I am having one AIRTEL DIGITAL TV connection in my brother name
S.Saravanakumar in the customer ID 300114846 from registered mobile no 9730624616.
We have shifted our house inside the same area last week and i have contacted AIRTEL
DIGITAL TV customer care on 12.08.09 for the reinstallation of the dish antenna they
answered that there should be minimum of Rs.600/- for booking the service engg slot
so i recharged my account and contacted customer care on 13.08.09 they alloted slot
at 1.00 p.m on 14.08.09 through order no:4760957 and also deducted Rs.600/- from my
account at the time of booking itself but no body came for installation work. Again
i contacted customer care on 14.08.09 they answered that the engineer missed the
slot and booked a service request ref no:934397 and alloted slot on 15.08.09
11.00a.m, no body came for installation on that date also.
Again i contacted customer care on 15.08.09 and they gave me one service request no
ref no:938579 and alloted slot on 16.08.09 3.00p.m that day also nobody came. Again
i contacted them on 16.08.09 they gave me one service request no:940956 and again
one service request no:943325 on 17.08.09. AIRTEL DIGITAL TV customer care is
giving service request no and the next day i am recieving message from no 247 that
the service request resolved successfully, how is it possible without doing the
work how the request is closing? How they are deducting amount from my account
without doing the work? So far i have not recieved any calls from AIRTEL DIGITAL TV
customer care each and every time i am only calling them i am wasting upto 15 min
per call to talk with the executive. Every time somebody is speaking and asking for
all the details and saying sorry for the inconvieniance but nothing has happened so
far. What i have to do in this regards and what about my
Rs.600/-. I am very much frustrated with this and i need one solution for this.


Thanks and Regards,

Dear Sir,

Regarding your complaint you just have to send a complaint letter to the Head Office of the Co. to get any solution on Company level. Mark your complaint to the MD of the Co. But if you do not get the solution from the Co. then you can file a case in consumer forum against the Co.

Hi,
My name is Rajesh and I had purchase Airtel DTH in Moth of Mar09. Due to some reason I was unable to refill my account and my balance become low.
I can not view paid channels... is acceptable but DD National is free channel and should be provide by every vendor at frre of cost. After talking to AirTel Customer care department I come to know that Airtel is selling DD National also and I can not enjoy it till I purchase any package from them.

Friends please make me clear DD National is for sell in India by service providers?
I hope selling national channel to customer is big crime and Airtel DTH is commiting this.. So please ..If any one of you have any idea for escalation of this issue ... come ahead and escalate it

Thanks,
Rajesh

I have just purchased an activation kit of airtel digital tv i want the installation in Punjab. before buying the same i have communicated with customer care on 12150 they have told me that sir you have to purchase the activation card worth 1750/- and we will arrange the installation in Punjab the mistake. i purchased the card at the time of scheduling the installation the customer care executive told me that this is a tare 3 area and they cannot help me out regarding the installation i have to go out and search for the local dealer and have to schedule the installation and they simply say that they cannot do anything. I have talked to the store manager even he said that he] cannot do anything. I myself have to search the dealer. They told me that to search for the dealer i have to send a sms and the list of dealers will come to my mobile. i marked the sms DEALER area pin but nothing happens for 1 hour. i again called up the customer care again repeating the same story to a new person. i told him to transfer the call to the previous, he told sorry sir i cannot transfer the call to anybody, i told him let me talk to the floor manager he told me that no. again the call disconnected. Again i called up same story to a new person but nothing happen. But he transferred the call to floor manager but same answer " Sorry sir But i cannot help you out". i told him " leave it let me know how i can get my money back which i have spent for purchasing the activation kit" he told me that the moony is not refundale. I am so frustrated with the type of service they are providing. they are smply making fool of os. i have vested three hours on phone with customer care without any conclusion. And interesting thing is they are not providing me any escalation matrix even it is not there on the website of airtel. If Mr. Puneet Garg, General Manager, IPTV, Bharti Airtel is listening. i Request him to help the helpless customer out. Now i cannot do anything i have purchased the activation card of 1750/- they cannot help me regarding the installation and they cannot get my money back.
