Hi,
I am facing a serious issue with BSNL. I have taken the connection few months back. The speed I am getting is really pathetic not more than 10 to 15 kbps. I have complained this issue to BSNL no proper response as of now. I have taken a mail id to escalate about this issue to the higher level management. Still I have not responded by them, its been a month or more. My plan is 800 plan.

Thank you
Have a nice day!

Dear Sir,

Again my landline is suspended as I not paid my Bill. But I have never received any Bill from BSNL Last time I paid my bill against the duplicate bills & they promised that this will not happen anymore.
Again this month, I have not received any bill & line disconnected. THIS TIME, I WILL NOT PAY ANY AMOUNT UNTIL THE ISSUE WILL BE FIXED.

PLEASE FIX THE ISSUE ASAP. Requested you to take necessary action to protect the customers like us from this type Harassment. If i do not get any positive response, I will terminate my connection.

===========Previous Complain=================
I had applied for BSNL Broadband 3 months before & i faced the following problem with BSNL. As a new customers, i request your help on this regard.

I had applied for BSNL Broadband on 6th June 2009. At the time of application at Garia Telephone Exchange, the representative (Female) sitting on Front desk, explained us about available Unlimited Plan (as I want the unlimited plan). She recommended the Plan of rental of Rs 500 which reduced from Rental of Rs 750 for new Broadband. As per her instruction, my wife filled up all the required detail in the application form. Also She( representative) crosschecked the form & mentioned the code for New Home unlimited plan of Rental of Rs 500.

After several followups, they installed the connection on 20th June 2009.They did not inform me whether my connection is up & running or not. Again I called telephone exchange & they informed that my connection is done.They provided the landline no# [protected]

On 24th June 2009, I got a SMS with Broadband UID & password. As a Technical person, I was able to configure the connection. After a week, again my connection as well as Landline dropped & after several followups, they fixed the issue. This was happened at least four times till the beginning of August & It was stabilized on mid of august.

In between I had not received any Bill from BSNL. I visited two times at Garia telephone exchange & informed them that I am not receiving any Bill till now. Each time they said that my Bill was not generated as it is a new connection & it will be delivered to my Home address.

Now on 24th August, new problem occurred. My Landline temporarily suspended as I not paid my Bill. Again my wife visited your exchange & they informed that my two separate Bills already generated. As I not paid any Bill, they terminated the connection. When asked them to explain why I have not received any Bill, the representative (Female) sitting on Front desk started argue with her to inform why I had not come here to know the status of the Bill. She informed her about my previous Visit & interaction with her but she denied to agree . She informed that I have to come once in a week to know the status. Then She generated two duplicated Bills.


Now when I checked my Bill, the Rental of Rs 750 charged instead of Rs 500. When asked her for the explanation , She behave with my wife very badly. When my wife wants to see the application form ( as I filled up the plan of Rs 500) , she started ignoring her continuously and talking with the other customer. After several request, she informed that I have to go RANIKUTHI exchange to see the form. Now She is telling that the rental promotion already expired & I have to pay the rental of Rs 750 . So I will be one of the victim due to negligence of a BSNL Staff.

My wife requested her that I am her customer and why she is behaving, she shouted on her and told that she is misbehaving with her. As a customer I highlighted the matter to you and requested you to protect us from this kind of harassment in future.

Within 3 months, I become frustrated about the service & mentally decided to discontinue the connection due to this type harassment.

Now BSNL is launching so many new products to give benefit to customer like me. But if BSNL has such type support & staff , how we avail this products. So before launching any product, Just think about your service & support.

Requested you to take the drastic action against her to protect the customers like us from this type Harassment. If i do not get any positive response, i will escalate the matter to your highest level & Grievance Redressal Cell.
======================

My telephone number:[protected]

This is my official telephone number (Vigyan Prasar, Under Dept of Science & Tech, Govt. of India)This telephone goes out of order almost every alternate day. Following are my latest complaint numbers ( complaint by dialing 198):

Complaint Number Date

398842 21/10/2009
398517 20/10/2009
397562 14/10/2009
394289 01/10/2009

Threre are many more complaints I can refer. Earlier some lineman used to call after complaint and asked whether line is workin or not. After one day it would definitely go out of order.

Shockingly now they started resetting the complaint number without even rectifying once!

Strict action is required to all responsible to maintain this telephone link. I am suffering irreversible loss everyday due to non functioning of the telephone [protected].

Nearly 6000Rs/- we paid for broad band and paying an amount of nearly 1000Rs/- for land phone even after so many days why this kind of negligence from your side.

If we cant pay the rent for this long period (that is the time period taken to rectify the fault) you will surely disconnect the service from us so it is your duty also to ensure proper service.

Sir please treat this matter as serious because the only way to communicate to our Father for me and our family is through your service .

Customer service complaint booked number was[protected]

Sir,

We have applied for the new phone and the phone was installed and activated on 19th Oct, 2009. We observed that the STD facility is not functioning. Up on complaining about the same in customer care services we were given to understand that the status activation is as with STD facility. But the same is not activated and in "ONE INDIA" package STD is a must. Hence we request you to take necessary action and instruct the concern personnel to look in to the matter and do the needful. Early action is appreciated.

We also request you to activate the Broad Band connection since while applying for the telephone we have opted for Broad Band connection too. We once again request you to take immediate action.

Thanking you,

I own a land line from BSNL for the last 10 years (Number_[protected]. Now I am having a dataone broad band connection too. My problem is regarding the instrument. My instrument is having continuous working problem for the last almost two years. whenever I approached for replacement they were giving me old repaired phone which is not giving good performance. Still I am running with the old phone with lot of problems.On approahing the Section in charge he told that new instrument will not be provided to old customers as perthe instruction we got from our top. Is it so. BSNL such a big company cannot provide a new phone for replacement ?

Please help me in this regard what to do.

Since last five days I am trying to make payment fro my cellone bill for mobile number [protected]. After login it is showing me the bill but on click to go to the view and pay the bill, it takes me nowhere and today seems to be the last day for payment.

Shocking Bill
My name is Ramjanam Gaur. My phone number is[protected]. To check my e-maiIs, I applied for a BSNL broadband connection under the 99 plan on 22nd March 2009. The connection was promptly provided on 30th March 2009.
I have received first bill number 74492875 of Rs. 404 on 10th may 2009. Then I have received second bill number 76138439 of Rs. 519 on 12th july 2009. I have paid above bills. On September 14th 2009, I received a hefty bill for Rs. 27392. With very limited resources, where to find the money to pay such a large bill? While the fixed monthly and call charges add up to only Rs. 1008 in the bill, the rest is described in the bill as Misc. charges, apparently for the BSNL broadband connection under the 99 plan.

There is obviously a serious error in billing apparently caused by some technical glitches. I lodged a written complaint to BSNL on September 15 both on physical letter and by mail and requested for an immediate review of the charges. It is difficult to get the appropriate BSNL accounts officer on line. I am still awaiting a revised bill and pray that the issue gets settled soon.

Meantime, in order to avoid shocking bills in future that might lead to a heart attack; I have disconnected my BSNL broadband connection. It is much cheaper and perhaps safer to use the browsing centers.

sir,
My phone no 2295368 is disconected at my request in june 2009. I have completed all formalities for refund, But till date no refund is made for security deposit.
More serious part is that during surrender process I came to know that there was a
free phone allowed. I never gave any consent for such free phone. It seems that all calls made by
freee phone number were being charged to me. myy telephone bill was unecessory incresed for period more than one year. It is suspected that staff of bsnl at nagpur is involved in the process.This
is very serious. Let me know the number and person who was misusing my number.This is criminal
breach of trust
I request you to mke detailed enquiry in the matter and let me know the actual situation
why such things are being practised by bsnl a governemnt undertaking

Hi, I stay in Chennai. I have a very frequent reset of the BSNL Modem. I lost connectivity say in every 2 or 3 hours. then to get it restored I need to wait for atleast 30 minutes or it may never happen also.

I tried calling the USELESS 1500 number and trust me, the operators or the call center workers will simply re-route it to a different channel were the call will automatically gets disconnected. Many time I hear some noise when this happens.. ppl working in BSNL Toll Free dpt are never bothered on their customers, it is not just the TOLL FREE it is the whole BSNL ITSELF.

If someone ask me on feedback to go for a BSNL BB or Not...I WOULD SAY A BIG NOOOO.

Reason: USELESS CUSTOMER SERVICE.

That is the REASON why still Private service providers are still survying in this earth like Airtel, Reliance etc
