I have been using BSNL broadband service since 2007. In last few months its not working well. I have complained the authorities of the issue many times but was really disappointed with their response. My father is a retired BSNL employee. Therefore whenever I visit the exchange I get a warm smile from the people there. But I am really sorry to say that their service ends up in that. After hearing the complaint they will come soon but can't expect them soon. We may need to go there several times to solve the issue. The same thing happened in the case of this broadband issue . I have visited them several times and with a warm smile they said that would come soon. But nothing happened for many times . So I visited them once again in the last week and managed to get one man to check the issue. He visited the home and said that the not sure about the reason of the issue and replaced my modem and told me to wait for some days with the new modem in use. But nothing happened. I faced the same issue in coming days. I again visited the exchange and informed the issue. They said issue may be on the line and will fix it soon. But nothing happened till date. I am really disappointed with their approach on customers. I haven't experienced such a poor response from any product I have used till date.

What I say? The largest telecoms service provider in the country.
Irresponsible customer support. No one to question them. No delay in issuing bills .
Never give any discount on poor service .
In many regions there is no other competitor in broadband section. So poor customers have no other option. They have to suffer from their own company( According to my knowledge BSNL is still a 100 % Govt. Undertaking company)
In fact they are not at all bothered about customer satisfaction because they get their salary in time and it does not depend on whether the customer is happy or not. So why should they bother about poor Indians. They are working for their own sake and we will pay them in time.

Dear Sir/Madam

I have BSNL mobile service,(No. [protected], Karnataka state) since the month of may' 2010, by mistake I accepted the wap pack, after this they have started sending hot model of the day photograph every day two times, against this they are deducting money Rs 30.00 per month. From month of May I am trying to unsub the pack but have not been successful. I have talked to customer care several times, they given me some suggestion to do some thing I have done but no result. They are subscribing the package themselves and deducting money every month and sending masses every day through 58888.My every effort has been fail to unsub the wap "hot model of the day" pack. I am frustrated with this nonsense; please help me out from BSNL criminal activity.

Dear

BSNL steals my money RS.30/- for providing tunes of stupid cine songs / BSNL promotional songs without my consent. every month. All their customer care give advice only; never care to take the complaints. The deactivation procedure of +56700 also so callous of attending the request. Insisting us to continue the tunes and without hesitation steal the money again.

Please advice me how do I go about RTI and fix the daylight robbery by a third party through the BSNL.

Some months before , I have applied to BSNL authority for Landline (LL) and rural Broad band(RR-BB) connections through the JTO- Pallahara (Dist-Angul). He submitted those proposals to the appropriate authoriry, by receiving the due amounts from him without issuing me any receipts. Later land line connection was given at my residence.But no broadband connection was given.No modem has been installed in my residence & no broadband password has been supplied to me till now.But along with Land lineBills , broadband bills are being issued to me till month. Due to this negligence & cheating of BSNL company , I have applied many times to SDO , Kanhia circle , to Accounts officer GMTD , Dhenkanal office for disconnection of telephone & settlement of account. But no one is listening to my application.the land line telephone is also dead since 9 months.But still bills are being issued by BSNL office Dhenkanal(Orissa).I have never availed the broadband service .Now I want to setle my account , to refund the amount due , correction of bills etc. at the earliest & moreover to disconnect the phone permanently. Kindly take necessary steps.

COMPLAINT AGAINST TEL NO-[protected]

Dear Sir,

My name is Balagopal varma and I am a residing at Tripunithura, Cochin, Kerala. 1.5 Months back I applied for a BSNL broad band connection (along with landline)by submitting 500 Rs in cash.Some 3 weeks earlier I went to the telephone exchange tripunithura and enquired about the status.They told me that the order is ready .When ever I contact them ,they says that theymake the connection fast.But till now no body has come to my residence for giving the connection.I have purchased a telephone inorder to avoid the delays due to non availability of the telephones. I dont know what is the reason behind this delay.If things are happening like this I would be left with no option other than going for a private connection.What all problem BSNL is facing right now is only due to the laziness of the BSNL employees.

Dear Sir,
My BSNL land line phone no[protected] is dead since[protected] we had lodge complaint on[protected]vide docket no1800847 and it was cleared ok without verify.(still dead).Again complaint was enrolled on[protected] vide docket 1802516(still dead).My land line phoneconnectivity is under GTB NAGAR ,KARELI EXCHANGE ALLAHBAD.211016
Kindly look into the matter.

The call rates of my plan has been changed all of sudden without any prior intimation given to me.

It was very disgusting when I tried calling the customer care ([protected]) but there was no one to respond from the other side even after wasting my time for more than 1 hour just to hear a pre-recorded voice. To be more specific I tried to reach the customer care on the above mentioned number with a minimum of 3 attempt every day for the past 15 to 20 days but the response was still the same. From my current experience I would obviously say that BSNL is the only network to have such WORST customer care.

I also have got another complaint to be made. Without any request made by me, BSNL automatically activates some service, which I got to know only from the message they sent me. The message is "RAHMAN - BSNL Alerts service is activated. You will be charged Rs.30 for 30 days". What if I hadn't received the message? Rs.30 from all BSNL customers, got to be one another BIG SCAM apart from the 2G SCAM.

Dear BSNL Team,
My Land Line 2272203 is not working since last month. i had tried to log the complain through other phone but it was to accept the zero so i could not log the complain.
Request you to please do the need full to get my landline up.

Thanking you in advance

Dear Sir,

I am a customer of BSNL prepaid services. My mobile number is [protected]. On 16th of January Rs. 30 was deducted from my phone balance. When I enquired the customer care representative regarding this case, he said that I am subscribed to a service for beauty tips. I have not subscribed to this service, this is a deduction done by BSNL deliberately as my brother is also facing the same problem. He is also a BSNL prepaid service user and is also being charged for the same beauty tips activation.

Priyanka

I purchased a new EVDO USB card from BSNL on 17th Jan,2011. Currently BSNL is advertising internet over CDMA networks through EVDO USB cards at a peak speed of 3.1Mbps. So I got a receipt of EVDO card of 7.2Mbps(maximum downlink speed) . But When I got the actual card, its specification clearly indicate that it can only support maximum speed of 2.4Mbps. SO technically it can never support speeds more than 2.4Mbps(3.1Mbps provided by BSNL). When I inquired about the same and tried to convince them that I ordered for a 7.2Mbps card and the card provided to me is 2.4Mbps one, a senior official(regional Engineer) said that this is the card that is available and the new card ca not be provided. When I asked them that how a card of lower speed is going to support a network with higher than its capacity, he just replied saying that I am not going to get the speed anyway. At last when I told him that I may have to take legal action against this , he replied saying,"Do whatever you want."

My original receipt copy clearly specifies EVDO USB card 7.2Mbps(2500 INR) but the instrument I got is EVDO USB card 2.4Mbps

Please advise and help.

I am BSNL post-paid mobile user since 3/4 years. I am unable to send text messages , though able to
receive messages. Previously it was working. But I found this problem since last two years. I have also complained and met SDO in-charge here at Cuttack to solve this problem. But still I have the problem.

For your information, the service centere No is set to '+[protected]' in my mobile.

Please take steps to solve this problem.
