Bharat Sanchar Nigam [BSNL] Complaints & Reviews

Sir
I had submitted an application in prescribed format for shifting of my telephone (landline) from Sunabeda, Koraput District to Koraput Town along a month ago. Subsequently I had received a call from the BSNL authorities asking me the place where the telephone is required to be installed. After that it is now more than 3 weeks none turned up for installing of the telephone. I had repeatedly rang the phone no. of the BSNL requesting them when they will be installing the equipment, but, all my requests felt on deaf ears. I had been charged monthly rental of Rs. 500/- towards the land line and broad band. Further, it is pertinent to mention that both the places fell in the same district telecom circle. Yesterday i.e. 20/8/10 I had personally visited BSNL office of Koraput, where I was informed that they may not in a position to provide me with the telephone connection as they are not having vacant slots on the pole.
It is not forthcoming, as to how they could deny an existing customer with his rights for his entitled telephone connection. I am not asking for a new connection, but, installation of my existing connection.
As such, you are requested to kindly look into the matter and arrange to get the needful done.

This is Dr.A.N.Mishra having a bsnl prepaid connection no.[protected]. I have charged my SIM with a magic voucher of Rs.500/- to enable me totalk to any bsnl number in India.
Astonishingly whenever I dial any mobile no.of bsnl of my home town Darbhanga a recorded voice system replies that the no is not in use. But on the same nos I am talking with other service providers. Some people have tiold me that there is a system software developed by bsnl which automatically bans all those nos which are frequently used by the customer availing the said magic voucher of Rs.500/-.
Is it not a breach of trust and contract.
Pl look into the matter and oblige.
Thanking You,
Yours faithfully
anmishra

BSNL mobile services in Nizampet Village especially Bhandari layout is very very poor the coverage is failing almost for 8-10 hours there is no signal available the signal completely fails during rain and Power failure.
BSNL is boasting of coverage and good quality services should feel shame there is no Land line coverage, NO land line service is available, besides mobile services is going bad to worst the SDO and other officials sets in thier chair for passing the time and taking fat salary, without doing any good to the public.
The residents/ user has to depend on Line man why, why cannot the engineers and higher officials do/ take any corrective action. when other services tile airtel and other services are providing services BSNL officeholders intact the entire team are simply sitting in their office, allowing other operators to grab the bussiness.
BSNL SHAME SHAME to yoiu.

Hi,
Respected Sir/madam
A month ago I bought USB Modem (NIC) from BSNL with assrance that the product will work effectively in the specific area as I quote. But after installation experience is bad as In my bed room ( Ground Floor) there is no signal for proper functioning resulted into disconnection after use every time. regarding this I lodge a verbal complaint to Sh.Kuldeep Singh (connected with Broad band) Ranjit Avenue Headoffice in Amritsar. Sh.Kuldeep Singh deliver me a Mobile Number [protected] saying that You told your problem to this number.After a long waiting Shri Niwas listen my problem and assured that he will visit the location but aftera week I am sorry nto say that no body visited nor problem solved.

dear sir

our Telephone No. 2649625 ded of last three month we r complaint to telephone office
but not soluction. & bill amount com for very high

PL. REFER TO MY COMPLAINT MADE BY ME EARLIER, MY LAND LINE PHONE WAS MADE OPERATIONAL AFTER HAVING HOT DISCUSSION BETWEEN SDO AND THE LAND LINE WHO WERE PUTTING BLAMDE ON EACH OTHER. SINCE MORNING THE PHONE HAS BECOME DEAD AND ON CONTECTING SDO HE WAS ASSURING TO RECTIFIE THE PHONE BUT MORE THAN 12 HOURS HAVE ELASPED BUT THE STATUS REMAINED THE SAME. MY BRIEF PARTICULARS ARE AS UNDER:

TELEPONE NO.[protected]
PHONE IN THE NAME OF : STATE BANK OF INDIA,
DESIGNATION OF OFFICIAL PROVIDED WITH LANDLINE: ASSISTANT GEN MANAGER
RESIDENCIAL ADDDRESS: #203,GH-8,SECTOR-20, PANCHKULA

The internet is not working. I have tried to lodge the telephonic complaint with the concerned departmen.
I contacted the officials in the office of BSNL but no action. The phone lines do not response and do not talk in healthy way. I expect some response from BSNL authorities to please look in to the grievance of the customers in a professional manner please.

I have been using BSNL pre paid service for almost 4 years. Today morning when I woke up I saw a message saying THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING AT GOVERNMENTJOB.COM. YOU HAVE BEEN CHARGED RS 20 SO AND SO. I have not received any message to activate such services. I am enough aware of prank calls and messages, I am sure I haven’t received any such message. But today morning I saw above message saying you have been charged Rs 20. I call customer care for the details. I called up them three times, but no one was able to give any information who and when did the service was activated. Even one guy told me that the charge deducted for the caller tune you deactivated before some time but not able to say when. RIDICULERS!!!!!!!

I am damn sure these people are deducting this money from so many customer like me. This issue should get addressed otherwise this telecom company will steal money from our pocket and we wouldn’t do anything.

Appreciate if this would be addressed and get resolved.

The monopoly of the officer of billing section Athagarh BSNL office, making mistake with bill . As per the advice of the connection officer I paid ( deposited) Rs250/- for a WLL new connection & Rs750/- for onetime advance for internet is enough they told.
But with my first bill the amount revised as due upon me, which is added to current bill, ( copy of 1st bill & receipt of Rs 250+750 attached with this).
I think the officer making mistake of deducting my onetime payment. Before connection they committed me that the total amount will be Rs1000/- ( 250+750) for new connection plus internet, & now they saying that I have to pay Rs750/- more is with my bill.
I think it is wrong,
If it is right, - then the officers cheating people to make good target for department making false statement with public.
MY REQUEST TO BSNL WLL DEPT.
If my complaint is right, please take necessary action soon.Deduct my extra Rs750/- & the service charges, as charged on it.

If I am wrong, please write me the process to get return of my deposited cash & take action on the cheating officers who presents false statement to new costumers.
( I am talking about Mr Sahoo on computer with J.E, Athagarh Bsnl Ofice).
If anybody can give good suggestion please do that.

To avail the facility of "Reduced call charges to any two BSNL numbers", I sent a text message on 14-Aug-2010 in the night, in the format "EXCELP [protected] [protected]" to 53733 from my no. [protected], in order to enjoy Re 0.20/min call rate for the nos [protected] and [protected]". No acknowledgement against the above SMS was received. Further, speaking to a Helpline executive revealed no such SMS was received at your end. This compelled me to send the same SMS quite a number of times on Sunday, 15-Aug-2010. Unfortunately, even today, on 18-Aug-2010, the service remains unactivated and the standard call rate of Re 0.49/min is charged when the above 2 numbers are called from my no.

In this matter, no cooperation from the Helpline executives was received at any point of time. Not only their attitude was harsh, they could not suggest any solution to this problem either, proving their inaptness for the position they are in. And its disgraceful the way the information provided by one executive differed from the other.

An SMS that never reaches, 4 long days pass and even then a service does not get activated, uninformed and impolite Helpline executives - these are not the things a service provider of your repute can really boast of.

It's expected the service would be activated for my number as soon as possible.

BSNL has so called "Appellate Authority".
The General Manager of Tamil Nadu BSNL who is the competant authority has neither read his mail nor acted on them. Ofcourse in keeping with this the junior staff of BSNL also do not bother about complaints received by phone or in person or by email as the message below clearly indicates.

Respected Sir,
Greetings!
Through this mail I would like to inform you about my BSNL broadband (the broadband link is erratic and does not work in evenings) problem which has not been resolved for the past 6 days despite my
efforts to raise my complaint at various levels.
My telephone number is[protected]
My Broadband connection linked on Home UL 750 tariff has been dead for
about a week.
Telephone Exchange is Manaparai
Having complained to 198 on 8.8.2010 I was assigned 43281.
For the past week i have tried to access daily the complaint section and
am told that it is pending.
Local exchange staff too are not attending to the problem. There is no
technical problem for other neighbours of mine.
I earnestly request you to escalate my case for action.
