                  it is very ugly service you are giving throuh bsnl broadband.
                  We are compelling to cancel bsnl connection.Deactivate it immediately.
                  Otherwise we have to go to consumer court.
                  I paid my bsnl bill via paytm but i has not been credited by bsnl guys .

                    Dear bsnl helpdesk,

                    Please forward my email to the concerned manager/officer regarding the revised timings of free night calling on landlines.

                    The only advantage of having a fixed landline, was the free night calling facility.

                    Now that the timings are revised, it becomes absolutely unattractive to keep the landline connection, as we cannot call and disturb anyone between 10:30pm and 6:00am. Even the free calling facility on sundays is cancelled.

                    I pay rs.460 p. M. On an average for the landline (One india + yakin nahi aata), while i could pay less for making my calls from my mobile phones.

                    As a result i am seriously considering cancelling my landline facility.

                    I am sure many landline subscribers may consider cancelling their landline facility if this scenario.

                    Regards,

                    Dolphus pereira

                      I found in this months bill of my bsnl landline number[protected] that an additional amount of almost 3 services from hungama amounting to nearly 600 rupees. I have never knowingly clicked for any such service. Very subtly such subscription is given by giving a popup when you connect to the net. No option o[censored]nsubscribing is given by sms.
                      When i tried to unsubscribe by calling bsnl helpline, they told to call hungama. This kind of attitude towards its own customers will kill bsnl soon.

                        Dear sir/mam,
                        I live in a small village:- kumbhari, i have been using bsnl network for years but i have a problem with the 3g coverage as here we don't have 3g range and i found it after recharging my mobile with stv1099 which is now totally waste, so please give a look to my problem because it's very disgusting when we loose thousand rupees over an useless recharge. Because city adjoining my village has a bsnl 3g connection which is just 15km away from my village.

                        Thank you.

                              On wednesday, january 24, 2018, i got my post paid sim card changed to prepaid sim card.

                              Till today, saturday, january 27, 2018, the prepaid sim card has not been activated.

                              I have called customer care several times and requested them to activate the simcard. They asked me to reboot the mobile after removing and reinserting the new sim card. I have done it many times.

                              So far, after 72 hours, the sim is still not activated.

                              My new sim card number (On the reverse) is:

                              89917

                                  Please deactivate the present caller tune. It is a english song which i have never asked for. I don't know how the caller tune is changed without my knowledge. Ok deactivate it immediately i don't know if there is any amt charged for changing the caller tune by the bsnl by themselves. We select some tune which we like and use it
                                  But how it will be changed without our knowledge. English caller tune is not good want to be changed immediately. Thanking in advance.
