Dear Sir,
I had applied for a new Airtel broadband and landline connection in Malad area in Mumbai on 22/6/2010. A represenatitve had come to our office to collect our form and other relevant documents for starting the connection. They also took as advance payment of Rs. 1,399/- towards downpayment for starting the connection. After that there was no response from Airtel until I contacted them 30/6/2010. Then I was told by the same representative that they needed an authority letter from us to start the connection. At no time did the representative mention that he would come over to collect the letter and subsiquently did not pick up the phone when I tried making multiple calls to him. I tried contacting him again on the 1st and 2nd of July but was told that because it was the start of the month they could not do anything. However, when I checked with my Bank Statement I was informed that Airtel had already presented the check for payment from my Bank. I fail to understand that when my connection was no started, how can they present the check for payment. Ideally the check should be presented for payment only after the connection has been started. Now I have applied for disconnecting the connection and only hope they have the decensy to return the money they have already collected for thier bad service.
I am very dissapointed with the way the Airtel Rep has handled the whole situation and only wish that the multinational companies in India would respect customers as much as US or UK and not treat them like dirt.
