            Hi I was unaware that my validity got expired on[protected] So I got an STV Recharge worth 59.00 done on my account on http://portal.bsnl.in/portal/aspxfiles/default.aspx on[protected] This, supposedly is BSNL's official site for recharges. Now, if my account got expired, without even checking the validity of the number, the portal collected 59 from me, and then says, the account is debarred. I called the customer care only to know that, because my account was debarred, the recharges done after that would all be invalid. The amount will not be refunded. How ???? How can they do this ? They wanted me to recharge with only 34 INR to extend my validity. That's fine. But where are you hiding those 59 Rupees ? Its unfortunate that Telecom operators, sometimes do not know how hard it is to earn money. This is not expected from BSNL, atleast

              sir,
              I am unable to access internet because of failure of wimax connection everyday between 7a.m to 9 a.m and 5.30p.m to 9p.m for the last four month. when i brought this to the notice of the Bsnl officials,Daramgarh,Dist.Kalahandi(Odisha),they told that this happens because they donot have any power supply system electric power cuts.
              I am unable to access internet due to negligence of the bsnl official in dharamgarh telecom office.

                    Since the last four months, I had been recharging my BSNL Prepaid mobile with 3G data voucher of Rs.120 which would give 250MB day & 1250MB night data usage allowance with a 30-day validity at every time of recharge. However, I could NEVER avail internet services due to the company's technical defects, throughout these FOUR MONTHS. I HAD COMPAINED AT BSNL CUSTOMER CARE ATLEAST 50 TIMES IN THESE 4 MONTHS about inaccessibility of data services ,and every time I was assured that the complaints would be resolved at the earliest. I had also submitted online complaints numerous times at their website's consumer complaints section. But ALL WAS USELESS. I had called up ALL of the customer grievance redressal officers of BSNL's Calcutta Telephones division after gathering their numbers from Calcutta Telephones' website. TO MY HORROR, MOST OF THE NUMBERS WERE EITHER INCORRECT OR UNRESPONSIVE OR DYSFUNCTIONAL. A few of the officers who took the trouble of picking up the phones, asked me to call at numbers which each of them mentioned to me and which were all different numbers. I followed their advices, but was again asked to call at some other numbers belonging to other departments & portfolios such as technical division, maintainence division, mobile broadband division, junior and senior network engineers and assistant engineers. I followed all their instructions and called at atleast 40 different numbers which they had mentioned but none of them even took my complaint, they all asked me to call elsewhere, at other numbers which each of them gave me & were all different!! BELIEVING IN THE CUSTOMER CARE'S REPETITIVE PROMISES THAT THE DEFECT WILL BE RECTIFIED SOON, I KEPT ON RECHARGING BEFORE THE EXPIRY DATE EVERYTIME AND THUS, THE DATA BALANCE GOT ADDED UP EVERY MONTH. IN AUGUST WHEN MY ACCOUNT HAD A DATA BALANCE OF 1000 MB of day usage & 5000 MB of night usage, BSNL suddenly withdrew all existing data recharges. This month, I had no option to recharge with any night data voucher, as the new vouchers have no such night data allowance provision. Thus, my 5000 MB night data balance expired inspite of recharging before expiry. Thus my four months of recharging with data vouchers went in vain, just because I couldn't use internet ever within the validity period of data vouchers, due to the ONLY REASON THAT BSNL COULD NEVER PROVIDE DATA SERVICES BUT CONSISTENTLY ASSURED THAT THE SERVICES WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO ME AT THE EARLIEST.

                            I have been noticing that BSNL has stared cheating with the customers. It used to deduct money all of a sudden in the name of VAS and tunes and other services without intimating to me or even I desired to activate that. It is very much frustrating that I need to always be aware to see when balance is deducted. I have lodged complaints several times but in vain. No balance/money is refunded though they have done the blunder. Whenever I called up the customer care and registered the complains and asked about the resolution then they have only one answer we don't know; we will forward it to complain dept and they will revert to you within 30 days but unfortunately I did not get any call even within 365 days. So please look into that and ensure that such company does not survive if this thing continues.
