Airtel scam exposed by Kannada Daily

Kannadaprabha daily owned by Rajiv Chandrashekhar is publishing articles about the ways Airtel loot customers from last 1 week. Here are the 2 pictures of articles I took from their Epaper site. I'll try to post pictures of all the articles. Please don't ask me to translate them to English, I am not good at translations.

haha. this would mean very little to too many people on this forum. 😛

Rajiv Chandrashekar is a mobile phone baron.How objective do you think his publications are going to be on the topic ?Isn't there an obvious conflict of interest and motive here.

But their writing about Airtel is 100% right. Please read them.

how do i read them? i do not know kannada?

google translate does support kannada language. so maybe you can search for the text format and post a translated version here. it would not be very accurate but some basic things would get visibly clear?

Is it weird that i tried to google translate the given image?

Translation of first picture as done by Google. Sorry for grammer mistakes.

All are same for Airtel

It doesn't matter whether you are a VIP/ a common man to Airtel. Airtel even cheated MLA of Mahalaxmi Layout of Bengalooru, Narendra Babu. He is very sad at the way Airtel behaved with him and he has already informed about this to the Govt and will take legal action against Airtel. Airtel is not caring to him even he said he is a MLA to the customer care people. Airtel refused to send representative to his home to solve his problem. And didn't provide office address when Mr.Babu told them he will visit their office to solve his issue.

He is an Airtel customer since Airtel launched its service in Bengalooru. Everything was fine for the first few years. After that his monthly bill began to rise gradually. The bill crossed Rs 15,000 even he didn't talk that much. After that he used that SIM for incoming calls only. Then also bill crossed 12k. In August he has moved to post paid service. Now his bill is around 7k pm. He is using that SIM because of the old number. Now he checks his balance 4-5 times a day. If Airtel network doesn't improve he'll opt for MNP and will take legal action against them.

errm. i think it is a good thing that airtel treat common man and politicians in the same manner. how can that be bad?
