Yes, my husband was also given the same feedback about airtel that customer service and connectivity both are poor though they are giving attractive promotional rate.

1-877-247-4047 number does not work often!!! Customer service number 1-877-247-5051 does not work AT ALL.

I had to email customer service to register my phone number. There is no provision to store abbreviated, frequently dialed number, the way Reliance offers.

Airtel has long way to go, to be called okay-okay service provider.

Looks like Reliance has also lowered thier prices. Reliance is now 7.9

Update - Airtels service has gotten much better these days...Yes! at times you can get connected to customer service!
Great improvement from those initial days!
