I am aged 71+ and have to take sleeping tablets as a result of minor stroke. I am holding BSNL prepaid mobile connection [protected]. BSNL indulges in irrelevant SMSs at round the clock saying some girl is waiting to talk to me in the mid night. With a SMS to START DND, I could stop all unwnted callers with Airtel and Vodfone but failed to cover BSNL who continues to send the SMS stating some TRAI reference. Has TRAI given authority to call centres with starting no.5 viz. 59595, 57272, 54000 etc. to disturb Senior Citizen's health? I want to stop all incoming SMSs (except Greetings being delivered in day time.) How to stop these? Please advise me.

This is regarding the exorbitant bill amount for broadband usage for the period 1-7-2010 to[protected] amounting to Rs 21.099/-. This connection is used in school for educational purpose only. the previous bills and subsequent bills after July 2010 prove that the usage has always been around Rs 1500/- to Rs 2000/- alongwith the fact that in our area broadband service remains frequently dead.
the case was reported to the DGM of our area Exchange in Bhadewan but he flatly refused any help in this matter.
We wish to have it resolved through BSNL SAMADHAN SCHEME if possible.

My Land-line telephone[protected] has problem since last several years, out of 30 days in a month it doesn't work for 15 days. I am tired of submitting complains to my nodal BSNL office but they do not address the problem. Either there is static in the background or no dial tone present. The area lineman told that the line from pole to the telephone needs to be replaced but it was not done. Every-time we complain we are assured that the problem will be fixed but nothing happens.

Can you please unsubscribe to Music on Demand for my BSNL landline phone 25658487.

This has been charged to me since November 2010 even though I have not used it.

Please refund the amount which is getting charged since November 2010 bill. Thanks.

I informed this to [protected]@sancharnet.in on Feb 21, but , they are still charging me for this.

Thanks

“Thank you for Subscribing Masti Pack. You have been charged Rs. 5/30 days.For other exciting subscription packs details, SMS HELP SUB to 56505.”
But reality is that I had not subscribed any pack. Without any my request, they subscribed the Masti Pack automatically. So, I called customer Care No. and one person responded and told me, “If you don’t like this scheme then tell me your message no. then I will deactivate this pack”. But till my prblem not sloved by bsnl customer care executive 7 deducting by balance.This matter is not for Rs. 5 but this is fraud. Service provider earns money by activating schemes automatically. I call several times but now they never take my call & also they not slove my request & deducting money from last three months back. My last request no.is 4678246 they told me your complaint is sloved but till date my balance deduction not stopped.

Dear BSNL Team,

Sub: Line connectivity issue

On July 19th, 2010, Monday, I requested to fix my telephone problem, after experiencing terrible problem from your lineman. I am writing to obtain damages for a huge mistake for which I strongly believe that you and your staff is responsible.

The bottom-line: I missed the communication with aged parents, along with my family members. I was trying to sort out this mess in a decent manner; unfortunately your lineman is making us sick day by day. We were unable to speak with my father and mother till date.

Because your organization caused the problems, for that we expect you to work with us to obtain a satisfactory resolution with immediate effect. Specifically, we expect you to:

1) Verify the whole incident thoroughly.

2) And to be fix the existing landline in three days time which I have been used for more than 10 years[protected].

Your line man has changed the phone without our permission or any notification.

The issue was fixed for a day but resurfaced the next day. Someone called my mother on 23- Jul-2010 around 20.00 hours enquired about telephone working condition who was refused to give his name. But the connectivity issue resurfaced on the next day.

We have always been loyal to BSNL because of the exemplary treatment we have received from you and your attentive staff till 2006. We suggest that you coach Mr. Dharmappa-lineman in proper policy procedures and in customer relations. His impolite behavior does not reflect positively on BSNL.

Please call me on my HP number or please give me your (respective personal) direct number for confirmation that our requests will be honored. If I don't hear from you, I will report you to the appropriate regulatory agencies in India as well as Indian consulate in abroad.

Please note its 67 days and so far nothing has happened. Please find the previews complaint with this mail.

Thanking you, more strongly,

Raghunath KR/ +[protected]
