[Resolved]  BSNL — BSNL - Assam Circle looting it's consumers by overcharging them

Dear Sir,

I am a BSNL mobile subscriber (Mbl. No. [protected]) with Assam Circle and noted that since November'2007 BSNL is doing all the wrong doings to loot it's customers in Assam Circle by overcharging it's customers which they will never know until and unless they get detailed billing of their uses. I being a lucky one as I have opted for detailed bills while taking this connection and on scrutiny found that their were lots of billing discrepancies and when I brought this to the notice of BSNL, Assam Circle they simply kept mum and never responded but fortunately due to personal intervention of then G.M., BSNL, Dibrugarh under which district my connection falls, some of the mistakes were rectified and huge credits were provided to me. But even after those rectifications their remained some more discrepancies which the them G.M. informed that the matter had been taken-up with the Billing department which is located at Kolkata and due corrections will be done. But here starts the problem the then G.M. Mr. Maity got transferred, and the matter remains unattended since his transfer in May'2008. I had taken up the matter with the present G.M. who had promised me on 3rd June'2008 that as he is going to Circle Head Quarters located at Guwahati, Assam that day itself, he will take up the matter there if a provide him with a fresh letter regarding my grievances. I had done that and since then, though in between 7 weeks passed, I am in total dark and now G.M. does not talk to me as he is found very busy all the time.

We as consumers fail to understand what should we do in such a circumstance.

Can u help please?

Sir,
I am a resident of Tinsukia Town, G.N.B road and I subscribed the BSNL WLL data card internet service on rental basis on the 3rd of December 2008. Still the bill of the required payment to be done for the month of december has not arrived yet. This poses a risk of arear bill to me. Please despatch the bill at your earliest and oblige.

Thanking You
Dear Sir,
I am pestered by unsolicited pesky calls, courtesy BSNL, despite the fact that I had sent DNC ACT through SMS to 53733 couple of months back and having spent Rs 5/- on the SMS sent..After a
respite for sometime, I just received a IVR commercial message from your own [protected].in
my Prepaid BSNL Mobile No [protected].Thiis type of Junk calls must stop immediately. I am not going to re-send DNC ACT to 53733 by SMS again spending Rs 5/- again.

Please do not compel me to lodge formal complaint with CMD bsnl/Grievance cell over this issue..

I am a resident of house no.51, R, N, CHOUDHURY PATH, HATIGAON, GUWAHATI - 781038. Previously, I used to get my Landline Bill for my telephone number[protected] at my residence by post, but it is more than 9 months that I did not receive my Bill by post. As it is the responsibility of a consumer to pay the bill in time, irrespective of its receipt or not, is not it also a responsibility of the Authorities to take care to see that a consumer receives his Bill by post on time ? I would also like to inform you that I receive my Reliance and Aircel bill delivered at the same address. Is it because of their advanced services or BSNL is lying behind the time ?

It would be appreciated if the Authorities take care to see that their consumers receive both Landline and post paid mobile bills delivered at their respected addresses.

sir, i paid all my pending bills for my Bsnl data card connection dibrugarh circle, though internet connection is detected but can't even open a single web page.Its no such problem few days back.I contacted Bsnl personels but none seems to be interested and they simply say its technical problem and redirect to some funny filmsy contact no...help thats why such public enterprise needs to be converted to private enterprise.I doubt these people might be using the same no. for their own prupose.
Respected Sir,

This is for your kind information that I had already given an application to change the Broadband plane from Rs. 250/- to 1200/- for the same, I had already paid the 1200/- on dated 20/10/2008. receipt is As per your Demand note the plane would be changed on 01/11/2008. But till then it was not changed. And the bill was coming as per premium rate i.e. 250/- per month. Which I paid and on enquiry your officer said to me that the plan will change from 01/12/08, but there is no change. the bill from 1 Dec to 15 Dec is of Rs. 3291 where BB bill is Rs. 2795 BB rent included at Rs. 250/- again.Due to this I disconnected my Broadband at same time I complained this matter to Your branch officers and they said me to that bill will be rectified and they send all the bill papers photocopy to Dibrugarh Branch office but I had to pay the bill first .As per their suggession I do the same but It is going the fifth month after all this there is no adjustment of bill.
So, I request you Sir please rectify the bill and refund the amount of security which I paid for Broadband Plan change with which is attached with this application as soon as possible. For the same I shall be great thankful to you and highly obliged.

Thanking You,
Yours Faithfully

Dear Sirs,
I had already informed that I don't get my BSNL landline and post paid mobile bill delivered at my residence from last one year inspite of repeated reminders. So I made it a habit of taking out prints of my bills through Broadband Connection connected to my landline Number[protected] for making payment before due date. But I regret to inform you that the bill for my cellone connection[protected] has not yet been updated till date although the date of billing is 10th. of every month.
Please suggest.

Thanking you.
sincerely,

My BSNL Landline[protected] at Moran hardly works for 7 days a monthg. Repeated complaints have been of no use. Request to change connection to WLL not entertained.

I live alone and have my mobile connection from Guwahati. I also go outside Assam every month for business and hence on roaming. Returning to Guwahati in the first to second week, I pay my bills every month regularly, although after due date. But, as let known by BSNL in their bills. the bill amount paid after due date will not be reflected in the current bill. Agreed. But why does BSNL found itself wiser. since three months ago, to disconnect the mobile connection after the 7th. of every month even when the delayed bill amount to be paid is well below the Credit limit of Rs.2000 as on the date of disconnection? I want the BSNL to answer this question and explain What this Credit Limit is about, to all. Do you, policy makers/ managers in BSNL think that we must come back from USA or from anywhere on this planet to Guwahati on or before 30th, every month to pay your bills? What is then your roaming facility for. You are disconnecting my phone because your system and your computer fails to give you the latest picture of my account, even when I've paid after the due date. Answer me here, if you are asking me to pay twice the same bill to avoid disconnection. What right do you have to disconnect the phones when you and your system itself is faulty. Are you inviting yourself to be dragged to court for your arrogance, jingoism and inefficiency?

Internet browsing through BSNL EVDO Card is almost impossible here in Guwahati, Ganeshguri[Hengrabari Road, near PHE office].

All the time it shows "remote computer not reponding" while establishing the connection.Though luckily you get the connection sometime, with 4 to 50 kbps speed, soon page tiomed out comes and EVDO appl shows internet disconnected.; and starts autoreconnect...and the process continues with authorising username and password.But you'll never get the it.

Before taking the connection it has been varified from the BSNL Commercial officer of Panbazar BSNL Exchange, and he assured that inside Guwahti you will get 2 Mbps Speed.

So, let me ask the officer now whether this will continue like this or they will take some proactive steps.If things happen like this inside the capital of the State, then what will happen to the ther part of the state.???????
