I have availed wan services from bsnl. I complained[protected] on 8th july 2018 regarding non-functioning of internet services. No action was taken by bsnl and services continue to be unavailable for most of the time. Again i complained in december for which i lost docket no. After booking complaint after 24 hours i received message regarding resolution of my complaint which was not happened. Again i registered complaint on 8th jan[protected], but no action was taken except inquiring regarding resuming services. When i contacted bsnl on 10-jan-2019 regarding the same, customercare executive has instructed me to go to bsnl office without providing any docket number. I have been paying the bills which are comparatively higher than any landline service provided by them. I would like to know how bsnl can charge me so much without providing services. I request bsnl not to generate bill henceforth till the services are restored.

I cannot send any text from my sim . it is a postpaid one and i have not been able to send a single text from it .i have tried complaining but they just ignore my complaints and then don't pick up my calls . it is the worst service u can get in india .please don't go for BSNL i will never recommend it.
Since today morning bsnl has been deducting ₹5 as last call charge though no calls or sms have been made. Even customer care guy was not able to resolve the issue.
Without my consent it's subscribing and my amount is getting deducted..please clear this issue and refund my amount as eraly as possible.. screen shot of the subscription message have been attached here.

    My internet speed on average is about less than 10 kb/sec.
    It's even slower than 2g even though it shows i'm connected to h+. My data limit is very much fresh, even if i wanted to it seems i can't exhaust my data.
    And then contacting customer care 4 times, they just hang up after hearing my situation saying they'll transfer to concerning official. Sometimes they treat me like its my device fault while i can use max download speed on jio or airtel anytime.

      I had called Tata Docomo Toll free no:[protected] from my BSNL number for an urgent purpose. The call didn't connect. On top of that they charged me about 6₹ for nothing.
      Sir/Madam,
      I am using a bsnl sim since last 6years, the number was being registered with my brother-in-law's name. Kindly notify me, how can I change the ownership in my name in my mail ID- [protected]@gmail.com.
      Thanking you.

        It was my mistake to go for a landline connection from bsnl and the same proved to be true very soon. An agent has visited my house for filling of application form and for collection of necessary documents. Later he gave me the demand note number ([protected]) which i deposited on[protected]. Since[protected], i have been continuously following up with that person but he is not giving me any satisfactory reply and my phone is not yet installed. Since last week he is not even picking up my phone.

        I have raised the to the customer care of the bsnl also but whole the company seems to be sleeping. It is not very wrong that people hate them.

          On 8th january, during a day of strike when their customer care offices are not functioning, bsnl automatically subscribed provided number to some 'confession' service and deducted rs. 15 from balance.

          1. Firstly, unable to unsubscribe with the number provided in the sms

          2. The customer care executive on bsnl mobile customer portal refused to refund money and pointed out that there was a confirmation call (At 11.21am) from number to service which is untrue. Due to strike there is no physical customer care office open here to lodge complaint. This smells like a scam to swindle money out of talk balance.

            Mb no. [protected]. No message is being sent. Smsc checked from phone information, coming [protected] after refresh and updated the same. Still not fixed. Checked other message settings too. Unable to identify the problem. Sms app is taking contact manager as default.
            As it appears, it is not compatible to network connection. Please help to resolve the issue

              Respected sir, my father 2 years ago bought a bsnl no (On his name) for me, and then i registered that no on every document of mine, even on my adhar card which is the most important of all. Nowhave to go to another state for my higher studies. So i want that number on my name so that i don't require my father with me at all the places i go. And also so that if i lost my sim then i could get it on my own.
              For this i would be greatful to you.
              Prem

Despite several requests, ultimately requested for disconnection after adjustment in monthly rent on 22.11.18. Phone disconnected without adjustment. Resultantly, demand notice regularly disturbing. Security is also held up. Defaulting officials should also be panelized.

                          My phone set is not working. I can not make out going calls and i do not also hear any ring for incoming calls. But this instrument make engage tone voice all of a sudden in night hours which disturbs us and unless we lift its receiver and place it again and again it do es not get silent. Ultimately sir, this instrument became useless. Hence i request to please replace the instrument of phone with a new instrument having caller id as early as possible.

                            I recharged my jio number from sbi rewardz with 100 wrongly choosen my operator as bsnl on 30th december. So i didn't get recharge message but sbi rewardz customer care said we got the confirmation from bsnl so we cant refund and bsnl customer care said we haven't recharged as this number is not in our database. I want my refund but both are saying each other as culprit

                              I'm working remotely from home, with wireless connection i couldn't able to connect my client ip, in order to do that i was in need of broadband connection. Bsnl is the only broadband service provider in our area, so i have approached ae for new connection. My house is 350 meter away from the existing broadband pole. Since fiber cable is not available at natham branch, he asked me to go with traditional copper wire telephone line (Dsl) for time being, he also promised that once fiber cable is received from madurai office, surely he will do the cable change for me.
                              Upon his promise about fiber connection, installation happened on the same week with dsl. From the day 1 connection was not stable,
                              With this poor connection i couldn't able to connect remote for which i got this connection.

                              In-between twice the cable wire got cut because of wind, in this regard i have made many complaints to bsnl department. Also submitted a complaint letter to the bsnl natham on june 2018.
                              Despite that nothing related to fiber cable connection has been done, launched new complaint to customer support, they responded well and changed dsl to cable wire with condition basis
                              (Minimum 2 connection required, so i got additional connection to get rid of the problem).
                              But it solved only 60% of the connection issue. Still connection goes on and off atleast 10 times a day and poor upload speed. The situation is still pathetic & unsolved

                              I have approached customer support of other service providers (Airtel and reliance jio), they said minimum 15 connections required to start the service in our area which is impossible for me to do but
                              I can assure people will start getting connections once they start seeing good service. I don't know what else i can do, apart from contacting one after other. It is very very urgent.
                              Kindly help me to get proper broadband connection at the earliest.

                                On 7 january 2015 bsnl rewari booked a telephone landline telephone for me having number[protected] and promise to install the phone at my home very soon.
                                But after more than 3 years passed but after frequent request they did not install the landline phone at my home making lame excuses regarding damage faulty line and fault not found buy their lineman.
                                Now on 12th december 2018 they forcefully send me a refund cheque of security deposited by me with their own will and mendatorily action because they don't want to install the phone please take necessary action and order to install my landline phone at my home i don't want this refund and it is violation of all consumer rights and criminal breach of trust by bsnl.

                                Hoping for the favourable and prompt action please.

                                  I have bsnl broadband connection at home. I am very disappointed with the connection issues. There is internet for one day and the other day, it's no longer there. This has been going on for the last 6-7 months. I have to make a complaint everyday. The officials resolve the issue but next day, it's again the same issue. It has become impossible to do any work. Out of 30 days in a month, there is no internet on an average for 12-15 days. But as a consumer, i am asked to pay the entire bill for the month which is around rs. 800. The broadband service is really unsatisfactory.
