I ported my number to BSNL on October 28, 2015. Then after my sad days started. Frequent call drops, network unavailable even if i'm in bangalore itself. BSNL also doesn't provide service of "Call forwarding" to other network mobile numbers. I contacted BSNL custumer care, the real hell . I bet try calling customer care and make them understand your problem !! I contacted customer care several times, nothing worked. I finally gave up and now maintaning IDEAL sim too. I realised BSNL is and wanted to port back to other network, but according to Telecom rule, we have to be in same network for 90 days after porting ...Now i'm counting days... Why government bodies are not customer service focused ?? No work ethics... All incompetent people ...Government has to take serious steps against this...

      I have submitted application for a landline on Nov 14th in BSNL Ulsoor office, bANGALORE and they are yet to provide me a connection, The allotted land line no is [protected]. It is now more than two weeks. Airtel promised a phone within few days but I still opted for BSNL to support the Govt Kindly do something as BSNL mobile network inside my house is also very poor

      Did you get the connection?
      I am also stuck with the same problem. It has been more than 1.5 months now since I applied for the connection.
      The advance payment cheque got realized on 29th Oct, 2015 but still I have not been given any acknowledgment and neither conveyed any allotted landline number.

        Dear sir,
        My name is Ankur Verma and my BSNL Landline Number is[protected]UP West).
        Sir, I bought a new connection in the month of August 2015 with internet broadband service. After installation i got the first bill for my landline bill.
        And i paid for the bill for August and September. But sir, in the month of October they charged me with huge amount of local calls. And i am asking for the dialled local call details to the telephone exchange, they are not listening me and refused to give details.
        I am the owner of the telephone connection so i have right to know about the payments and i did not dialled those calls.

            I am having BSNL Broadband Line Connection[protected]. During last month billing I found they charged me with an amount of Rs.92.59 as Charges for Hungama Services which we have not made any request for activation.

            I made the payment and request them to refund the same which we have not requested. However, BSNL Hungama Customer Care has abruptly refused and confirmed that they will not refund the amount.

            BSNL-Hungama is very clever in charging the amount as adjustment to many customers. They knew very well that they need to refund the Money hence they didn't charge any Tax on such services and shown separately as "Adjustments"

            BSNL is harassing innocent Customers by activating the Services on their own and while making complaint they simply stating that Customers have activated it.

            Kindly take up with BSNL and arrange to refund the Money to me and to all such innocent Customers who have been harassed.

            Thanks & Regards

              This the irony of BSNL, Landline no[protected]Bhojpur) in the name of my mother. This Telephone is not working for last four months, every time my mother called to customer care/ BSNL officials, they simply give assurance. All consumers has disconnected their LL except us on that village on hope of every thing could be OK.
              Request the BSNL official to do the needful, my parents are 65+ years old living in village.They fall ill of going & requesting to Telecom officials. Next move is to claim compensation only.

                            I am from Hyderabad and i use BSNL GSM post paid service.My bill was due for payment by Nov20, 2015. However, i paid my bill on Nov27, 2015 and the status got instantly updated to "No Due" on my account dashboard. Currently my outgoing calls and SMS messages are not active yet. I called up customer care dialing 1503.The support guy says that their system still shows that my payment is due and that fellows tells me to visit a local BSNL office.That sounded ridiculous to me. I doubt if we are living in digital India.A government organization like BSNL cannot offer minimum service to customers. All this shows lack of co-ordination causing inconvenience to customers. I don't know how many people go through this everyday. I am thinking about deactivating BSNL and go for other service providers. Appreciate if someone on this forum could take this issue up to help resolve it. Thanks in advance Karthik

                              Telephone & Internet lines were working perfectly, BSNL people come & start repairing the telephone pole in front of my home, lines stopped working, i told them about it, they assure me all will be ok in 30 mins, then they go without even bothering to check if the lines were working or not & my home is not even 5 ft far from the pole, lines were still not working! Now I have to register complaint & they will come at their convenience! What about the troubles which are unnecessary & unwanted, we have to face!

                                I have a bsnl landline connection but no subscription for internet. Last month I was charged 1700+ INR ( average was 600 INR). I was shocked by seeing the bill. So my question is: 1. Do I need to change my landline plan. Is it possible? If yes please mention the good one. Any other information are appreciated. [protected]@gmail.com Please help

                                      Our Landline Number[protected] remains dead every month & gets activated after Repetetive followup & without Line man coming for Repair & checking. We are Paying the Telephone Bills regularly & we are getting poor reponse. It seems they deliberately keep the Phone dead on Festival Days. They should be taken to Task & see that Rent is deducted.

                                        I am a army personal posted at Hissar. I wanted to avail the facility of bsnl broadband at my residence. The bsnl employee at satrod says that it is compulsory to buy wifi router/modem from bsnl and without it connection will not be given. Although the customer care say that purchasing wifi router/modem from bsnl is not compulsory. This incidence happened today at Hissar cantt where a representative of bsnl was here to take broadband form collectively. He completely denied that the connection will not be provided unless we purchase wifi router/modem from the bsnl office, and also said that it is the direction of his senior. He also denied to give whatever he said in written.
