Respected Sir,
I, MD. ZAID is being harassed by BSNL office. The above mentioned telephone no. was used in the year 2008 and after that it was disconnected. There was no communication whatsoever by BSNL authority nor did I receive any notice or Bill . A couple of days back BSNL Calcutta Telephones Office has sent me a Legal Notice asking me to pay about Rs.6, 000/- as an unpaid Bill and has asked me to appear in Lok Adalat. I seek assistance and help as I am not aware of my next step.
Awaiting an early reply.
Thanks and regards
MD ZAID

      Hi everyone,
      BSNL is one of the leading company in GSM in India and yet customer service is so pure. People working in BSNL dont have proper knowledge of BSNL services. If some one gives call to 5 different CSC, they get different response to same problem. Even Postpaid bill of Mangalore region doent accept in Bangalore. Both the city are in same state yet it doesnt support.

      Giving calls to CSC they dont pickup the calls and emailing them, the email-id found to be fake.
      From the website :- http://www.bsnl.co.in/opencms/bsnl/BSNL/services/landline/helpdesk.html below 3 email ids are fake:-

        BSNL Bhubaneswar Landline phone was dead from 11.12.2013 to 24.12.2013. So on 26.12.13 I submitted the application to JTO, Baramunda, Bhubaneswar for waiver of rental in next billing. He verified, then signed and sent to SDO, Baramunda. He also signed and told me to go to Head office, which is far from Baramunda. I refused to go and told him that the application must go thru department. I dont know, what happened, but I received the present bill without any waiver. I again went to inquire to SDO, but could not find him. I telephoned him and SDO, JTO both are searching my application. To save Rs 82/-, I have spent Rs 100/- in fuel and valuable time. Pls waive & compensate, so I can proceed.

              For the 6 months i have been asking bsnl to look into the problem of dsl link getting off every 2 minutes and returning back after 1-2 hours again to be broken after 2-3 minutes. Online, telephone, written requests have failed to solve my problem.Whenever i put a complaint within 24 hours sms comes to my mobile saying your complaint has been rectified, but its not the case.I have personally visited the SDO in exchange, he asks the lower staff to look into the matter and i am assured by the staff that they will do their best but all in vain.My landline number is[protected].I am doctor by profession.

              I am/was user of BSNL Haryana, Faridabad landline & broadband connection[protected] since 2004.Applied for shifting the same to my new address in same telephone exchange area in October 2011.
              Done my level best for shifting my connection but failed.
              Still i hope positive, but results are zero.

                My daughter lost her Mobile with BSNL Kerala No [protected] in front of D2 building on 11/01/2014 afternoon at IIST, Valiamala, Trivandrum, Kerala. I requested BSNL customer care to block the SIM, but they are asking for FIR and last call made from the No. It is frustrating for a student to lodge FIR at Police Station by her alone where there a lot of complain towards police against girls and also to recall the last calls... Please make arrangement to BLOCK the SIM to stop misusing it.. Prof Tushar K Ghara, Joint Director, Govt of WB

                  Hello, I am from a rural area. I have been using bsnl broadband service for more than 18 months now. I am using BBG500Rural combo plan. when I took the connection it was working fine, but after a line drop, whic happened six months back, possibily due to the public road construction work, my landline/broadban connection is no good. I barely get a connection. I have made a complaint to my local exchange(Thirukkanur) immediately after this incident(in june 2012) and they said that they will look into it and they still are looking into it. I am paying around Rs.550/month for the broadband connection which I couldn't use in a hope that it will be resolved i.e I paid around 3000 to BSNL for nothing. I also made a complain to main exchange (puducherry) but of no use. I am registering my compalin here hoping that it will be taken into account and will be resolved. I will not stop here, I will do whatever I can until it is resolved. Landline no :[protected] email-id : [protected]@gmail.com Regards, Rajasuriya Murugan

                        i am proud to say bsnl is no.1 network all over andhra pradesh. i was using docomo network. i hear that bsnl network is providing full coverage all over andhra pradesh . i change my network to bsnl since 2013 jan. from beginning onwards there could be minor problems they tried to solve any kind of issues. But at present the customer care call centres not able to provide the best services what customer needs. they not at all trying to respond to the calls of a customer and even they are not ready to listen the problem facing towards bsnl network. they were behaving very rude manner .if a customer files a complaint they are not in position to register a complaint. so that many customers facing same problem. customer care centers are talking in rude way giving false statements. they decided to commit to fraud the customer they commonly says same reasons : 1. Change the handset 2. Switch off mobile & restart the handset 3. Replace the sim card 4. change network setting from automatic mode to manual mode for every problem solution is same. i was very much irritated on their activities. i never tolerate such type of things. you should take necessary action towards my complaint at any cause.
                        BSNL customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              Dear Sir,
                              Myself Manav Dhawan from 91, model town, ambala city, haryana, India. i am using bsnl broadband connection at my office / residence place. presently i am using 8 mbps broadband plan ( monthly rental 2799 + taxes ). i am fed up with the problems i am facing since last more then 6 months and now finally i have no other option but to either approach the higher authorities and still if the problem is not resolved permanently, i will be left with no other option but to go legally.

                              1. in every 7 to 10 days the internet speed goes down drastically ( drastically i mean out of 8 mbps broadband connection i cant even get 1 mbps speed ) . or the internet gets disconnected.
                              2. as told by bsnl authorities first step that i take after facing this problem is to register the broadband complain on[protected] BUT EVERY TIME I DAIL THIS NUMBER IT SAY "THE NUMBER IS BUSY PLEASE DAIL AFTER SOME TIME " OR NO ONE PICKS UP THE CALL .
                              3. then 2nd step i take is to call Mr Manish [protected] ( from ambala cantt, looking after technical part of broadband connection ) to confirm that whether there is a problem from back end or its a local problem . He always guide me well and let me know the exact problem whether the issue is from backend ( banglore ) or its local . but 99% of the problem is local ( model town exchange or copper wire laid between model town exchange and my office / home whose distance is around 700 meters by road )
                              4. as mostly the problem is within exchange or copper wire between exchange and my location. THIS IS WHERE THE EXACT PROBLEM STARTS.
                              5. now when i try to register the telephone line complain on said no ie[protected] IT SAY "THE NUMBER IS BUSY PLEASE DAIL AFTER SOME TIME " OR NO ONE PICKS UP THE CALL . thats same in case of registering the broadband complain.
                              6. next step i take is to call Mr Udham Singh [protected] ( the most irresponsible person ) the broadband SDO ambala city NEVER PICKS UP THE CALL and every time is visit his office he is on field then HOW DO I CONTACT HIM ?
                              7. then i try calling Mr Yadav JTO [protected] but he too never picks up the call and neither is available in his office and so HOW DO I CONTACT HIM ??
                              8. i keep trying their numbers and after getting frustrated i visit their office but i could never able to get in touch with them even in their office ( as mostly they are on field or due to other reasons.
                              9 . some how if after 2 or 3 days ( after repeated followup ) i get in touch with them . they commit that the work will be solved on certain day / date but it never gets sorted out within that time frame and now again i have to find them which means again 2 to 3 days are gone !

                              every time or 95 % the problem is with the copper wire laid between the exchange and my location and for that i have asked them number of times to provide me the permanent solution but they never took it seriously. Also i have given them another option to provide with "FIBRE TO HOME " BSNL SERVICE as my location is MAX 700 meters from model town exchange so that i can get ride of this problem but after following up for 3 months ( with Mr Sanjeev Jain - [protected], Mr Manoj Kumar - [protected] and Mr Vipin Jain[protected] i landed up with no solution.
                              Now my only question to BSNL is AS A CUSTOMER / END CUSTOMER

                              1. WHY IS THAT THE PEOPLE LIKE MR UDHAM SINGH AND MR YADAV DONT PICKUP THE CUSTOMER CALL EVEN WHEN THEY ARE ON DUTY, ARE WE MAD OR DO BSNL THINK THAT WE ARE FREE AND OUR ONLY JOB IS TO CALL THEM ??

                              2. WHY BSNL EMPLOYEES LIKE MR UDHAM SINGH AND MR YADAV THINK THAT CUSTOMER CALL IS NOT AT ALL IMPORTANT AND THEY TREAT US LIKE TAKEN FOR GRANTED ???

                              3. WHY IS THAT I AM NOT ABLE TO GET THE PERMANENT SOLUTION FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ( FROM LAST MORE THEN 6 MONTHS THAT TOO WHEN I AM USING A HIGH END BROADBAND CONNECTION ) ???

                              4. WHAT ELSE YOU EXPECT FROM THE CUSTOMER LIKE ME WHO TRY TO FOLLOW ALL THE STEP LAID DOWN BY BSNL AND STILL NOT ABLE TO GET THE SOLUTION FROM BSNL ??

                              i would request you to kindly provide me with a permanent solution by either providing me with " FIBRE TO HOME CONNECTION " or providing me a proper copper connection between model town exchange and my location . also would request you to kindly fix up the meeting where in I, Mr Udham Singh, Mr Yadav, Mr Sanjeev Jain and Mr Manoj Kumar sit together in front of you and see where the problem lies and why they ( Mr Udham singh, Mr Yadav ) treat customers as taken for granted.

                              Thx
                              Manav Dhawan

                                  I have a Type - B BSNL modem (Siemens SL2-141). After every 10 minutes or so, my ADSL link goes down. Then, for the next 2 minutes it shows "PPP Down". The DSL yellow light goes off and the blinking yellow light goes off too. After a while, the DSL comes back on with the lights blinking. Then, it becomes stable again for a few minutes. No DSN issues - using Tatanova Mumbai, Hyderabad, OpenNIC, OpenDNS and Google.

                                    Internet/broadband services of bsnl madhya pradesh was lifted/closed/un-available during important dates 31 dec 2013 to 01 jan 2014(48 hours).The reason not known, as not published/not pre-intimated to bsnl customers/consumers. This was deliberately done, as assumed and was great loss, both for bsnl & their consumers, being an important new year event of exchanging good wishes greetings.

                                      My BSNL mob.no is [protected].Every week i'm charged with rs.8 (Now i lost 80 rupees in past 3 months because of the message from wap.tesync.net). Please unsubscribe this scrappy videos from wap.tesync.net/tesync/CMS/Content/Video/... Here the problem i faced with bsnl customer care on this. First i tried by calling to customer care number [protected] but they were keep on telling they won't give solution for this problem and to try for the number 155223 for this issue and I even tried to call 155223 for stopping this, but i cannot reach this number any time, always it tells as "Your call is very important to us kindly stay on the line we will attend you very shortly" and maximum i stayed in the line for 1 hour but no one picks up the call, very worst customer service, if i couldn't stop this service ASAP there is no way for me other than to throw this number and switch to another network (Note i'm the customer of BSNL for the past 7 year and i didn't experience such a worst situation like this before, Now i'm Hating you BSNL).
