Bharat Sanchar Nigam [BSNL] Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir,

This is with reference to the refund deposit of Rs.1000/- not received till date by us from bsnl telephones after disconnecting our landline telephone in 2009.

we have called the bsnl alandur office many times but nobody is helping us properly and say that there is nothing to refund.

I have faced many problems with bsnl when it comes to refund and they do refund the deposit taken by them.

consumer no:[protected] landline no:22554318

we had broadband connection for which they had refunded only rs.1278/- Initial deposit of rs.1000/- is still not refunded to us. we have moved to hyderabad and have made several phone calls but none of the officers are taking it seriously and keeping on telling us to call later.

Its quite frustating that company like BSNL does not refund money to the customers and we have to spend amoutn equivalent to our deposit to call them and get back the refund money.

kindly look into the matter and help us get the refund at the earliest

Thanks,

Sir,
I took a broad band 8MBB4000 connection towards end of March 2008 from BSNL ernakulam.But unfortunatly I got the wrong router from BSNL. (ordinary one ) Despite many attempts, we could not gain successful connection and kept informing your department on a regular basis. After 2 weeks, it was found that BSNL had delivered the wrong router and replaced it with router type 2 (intended for static IP use).With the type 2 router we were able to gain connection, however the speed we got was below 1MB instead of the 8 MB speed assured us. We were given to understand that within the trial period of one month which had been offered to us, this issue will be resolved.

During this period I had to go abroad, but followed up on this issue from overseas. I was asked to put in a complaint in person and was assured that this matter will be looked into at the earliest. On my return from the UK I found to my shock and surprise that I was presented with a bill for 2 months. I pursued this matter further and raised it with the Accounts Officer. She suggested that I submit a written complaint and I did accordingly, highlighting the trial period on offer as well as speed below the offer (which was below my requirement as well). Though noone actually contacted me to address the issues that had been raised, I continued to receive phone calls from BSNL requesting payment. Finally, I received a call from Mr Mani of BSNL and asked me to complete some tests. He gave the instructions over phone and by email which I adhered to, however, with no results. Mr Mani informed me that he was getting the offered speed after loading my IP address from his office. Though my son was at the time hospitalised with a major illness I still found time to communicate with Mr Mani by email. I discussed the issue again with him, this time over the phone. I was informed that members of his staff were extremely busy around that time and that someone will be sent to my office to check what happened. Another two weeks passed and there was no contact from BSNL. I sent an email, followed by a letter (sent through courier service) to the Customer Service department and Accounts department. The letter clearly stated that if the issues were not resolved in 7 days, I was at risk of losing my project and that this matter could not wait indefinitely. The very next day I received a response and a few members of BSNL staff came to my office to check the problem. They found out I am not getting more than 1MB speed, they checked the line, the cable and finally figured out that there is an issue with the cable (something to do with earthing). They replaced the cable from the BSNL post/box to the building where my office is located. After a 2 hour long effort they were able to resolve my issue in part. I was able to get a download speed of 5MB, however, for my project to be viable I require high speed for uploading as well. I contacted Mr Thomas of BSNL who informed me that BSNL can offer an uploading speed of 1 MB only at present. This is clearly not in line with my requirement. I am now forced to take a fixed static IP broadband connection from another service provider and have no choice but to request that the connection be severed.
I am hugely disappointed that my project has been unduly delayed and request disconnection due to failed service delivery.

Thanking you,

Yours truly,

I have taken home 500 C, bsnl broad band plan in Dec09,

In current month on date 8/4/2010 the usage checking portal showing me wrong usage figures. it is showing that i have downloaded 947435 & 332483 kb i.e 947.43 and 332.48 mb total is about 1.27 GB. Before 8/4/10 portal is showing total usage of 1.40 GB . but after adding this 1.27 GB the total usage is about 2.67 on 8/4/10 day end which exceeds free 1.5 GB usage as per plan and BSNL will charge from me @.80rs per mb extra usage.that means i have to bear the charges for that 1.27GB (RS 1016) which is going to be charged by BSNL in this month bill.

usage details are given below:

Start Time (DD-MM-YYYY) Stop Time (DD-MM-YYYY) Download (KB) Upload (KB) Total Units (KB) Duration (HH:MM:SS) Chargeable Units(KB) Excluding Night Unlimited
[protected]:02:39 PM[protected]:36:04 PM[protected]:33:25 947435
[protected]:24:32 AM[protected]:23:39 AM[protected]:59:07 346088


on that day i was just surfing webpages.and not doing any downloading like any data file, songs , pics , movie or something else. i usually doing downloading in night between free unlimited downloading time set by BSNL i.e 2 am to 8 am.

my complaint is that there is a problem in BSNL usage calculation and BSNL simply cheating customer. and they dont have technical answers to such questions.
they simply said, if it is showing, then you would have downloaded this. this is simply radiculous answer. i don't want to pay this additional amoutof RS.1016 of 1.27 GB usage.

anybody can help me out to tackle this problem or any way to get details of download from BSNL. pls help me to resolve this issue...

Dear Sir, Third e-mail / Reminder,

despite of my kind request to give me the EVDO service as promised by your organisation and my effort to support your team to establish the service at Gurgaon, Noida it was not done till now.

For this I was in touch with Madam Mageshwari EVDO service centre, Mr. Stalin at Flower Bazaar BSNL office and DE Mr. Jayakumar at Avadi.

All of them had expressed their inability to get the service and from the date of my purchase i had not used it except for a day at your BSNL Flower Bazaar offer to activate the EVDO card.

It is unfair to sell a service which is not yet established as per the claim of your offer ( National Romming ) to a loyal customer like me. Now I feel just like a sacrifice Goat in front of BSNL and no one reply or respond to my complaint.

I had left with no option to approach Consumer court and new agents or the President of India to respond. If She too does not respond then this is the fate of Indian consumer and BSNL customer.

I hope any one of you honestly justify or recognise my claim.

With best regards

My broad band connected with land line telephone no. [protected]. I have opted for unlimited Plan 750. I am working with a Central Govt. office. Each month minimum 10-15 days the broad band internet connection is not getting as the indication shows some error or server probme.. Sometime link is not getting. Whereas I am paying the bills upto date. Please try to provide satisfactory service to the broadband users. The service seems to be below average. Improvement in service is absolutely necessary for the interest of the public

from last 25 days my BSNL broad band internet connection is not functioning. Inspite of loadging the complaints four times through call, the wimberly gunj exchange officials has not at all responded and i am being made to run from pillar to pillar for rectifying the problem. BSNL is really bad in providing these kind of services but very prompt to cut the line for non-payment even if it is for just a month
