This happens twice a minute and is quite inconvenient. This problem is persisting since June, 2009 and despiting writing mails to CMD/MTNL, no improvement is forthcoming. Plz advise what to do next..

Dear Sir,

I am holding a broadband connection with phone no. 23642585 from around 10 months now. I send repeated complaints to 1504 for last 15 – 20 days the people picking up the phone there ask if the ADSL is blinking & if it is blinking then there is problem in line or get the setting changed every time and it starts. It is our every day duty to call up at Mtnl and complain. But the line man who attends our house says that there is connection error from MTNL itself and he calls up there and our internet get’s connected for around 2 hours and after that again the problem occurs.

There has been no concrete work been done till now to resolve the problem.
I had also talked to Area Manager of Mtnl but his intervention had helped only once. Now since 11 days my internet is not working

I have tried every means to get solution of my problem but nothing has happened so far, now I have lodged complaint on this format.

My bill remains no pending, can I get justice or I have to go to CONSUMER COURT

Hi, I was using MTNL Landline connection since 1997 to Aug 2009 but because of some irresponsible & lazy service by MTNL, I have decided to surrender my landline connection. On Aug 1st I have surrender my instrument as well as all the neccesary documents. Now it has been around 75 days, I haven't received my surrender cheque. A clerk in Sanchar Hart in Dilshad Garden told me that it'll take 60 days from the submission of instrument but it has been 15 days extra. I am calling to the respective account officer of my zone but he is not picking the phone. I have tried so many times. his phone no. is [protected]. please do something for it..

Sir my complaint is pending since 6th Aug 2009 No.CO90855054
I sent regd ltr dt 17 Aug recvd reply fm MTNL BKC Mumbai -98 as follows Quote Complaint is forwarded to DE Billing GSM, MTNL 4th flr. for action n direct reply. In the meantime u r rqstd to make communication with him directly in case of delay Unquote Kly note that I hv recvd no telephone no. as to whr shud I phone but on making phone calls on Nos.26520303, 26527447, 28403300,28403400, [protected] n finall n 26520303 no reply I hv made about 20 calls on the abv nos. but I was just directed to various other no. thus complaint is not yet solved. This shows that MTNL is trying customers patience by dodging with various nos. Repeating complaint as follows: It seems that someone has used my no. by getting it associated with My Group Plan On enquiry at your office the tel nos. associated with my mobile no. are (1)[protected] (2)[protected] (3)[protected] n instead of 90 p/min getting deducted Re1/min was deducted for the call I made n finally when a call lasting for 0.29 secs was made I realised Rs.62/- was deducted thus I was made aware when such a huge amt was deducted that someone was misusing my no.

I asked your helpcentre to check at their end as to whom the abv nos. belonged as also check my call detailed history if I hv ever made any calls to the above 3 mobile nos. n deduct the amount of Rs.62/- from the above 3 mobile nos. for misusing my no. n no such fraudulent activity can take place further so that no other customer wud become a victim to such fraudulence. Initially your helpcentre people assured me that they wud refund Rs.62/- to my account but till date no action taken.

Another proof of my mobile no. being misused was that without using my mobile no. till date I recvd msg. from MM-Dolphin on 29/09/2009 time 11.09 Quote Dr. Customer thanks for availing free 3G Trial local video call upto 30.09.09 ....... Unquote Kly note that I hv not sent any msg fm my mobile no. nor made any calls since 6th Aug 09 kly check into the matter and forward the complaint to your Public Information Officer n revert on the status and action taken on the above complaint.

MTNL Delhi Complaints - TELEPHONE / BROADBAND DEAD FOR MORE THAN 40 DAYS & NO BODY FROM MTNL LOOKING WHILE LOGGED COMPLAINT MANY TIMES. ALSO ZONAL OFFICER MR. ARYA (NEHRU PLACE OFFICE) IS NOT PICKING/ READY TO ATTEND DIS-SATISFIED CUSTOMERS
Dear Sir/Madam,

My MTNL telephone number is 26443692 in LAJPAT NAGAR area, SOUTH delhi.
This telephone was dead since 40 DAYS and i have logged complaint many times. Recent complaint # is 1082 (DT. 09.10.2009) logged at MOC. Tried to contact the concerned zonal officer Mr. ARYA (Mobile [protected] & Direct Line [protected]) without sucess since last 20 days. Earlier Mr. ARYA used to pick my call but since last 20 days as soon as i call him he switch off his phone or his phone goes out of range after 2~3 rings. This was never expected from such a responsible officer.

May i request concerned officer to respond us/ inform us by when our phone & Broadband will be start working.

I have a MTNL landline & broadband connectiion. My consumer no. is [protected]. I have severe problem of noise/disturbance in the line/connection, due to which the broadband gets frequently disconnected. I have registered several complaints with the concerned officer at the Dwarka Exchange and central complaint cell, during the last one year. Howevrer there has been no response from the department. The problem is due to joints in the cable/wiring from the junction box to the main connector of my flat. The whole wiring has to be changed, which is approximately 40 feets. I hope the higher ups in the MTNL shall look into the matter and take appropriate steps.

We have subscribed for Aksh IPTV through MTNL & have been using it since almost a year.
However, we are very dissatisfied with the kind of service from customer service, interrupted performance of the channels.
The service provider is irresponsible & deletes any channel without prior intimation & reasoning for the same.
The Chief of Customer Service shamelessly disconnects the phone calls, never comes on line to attend even when requested for attending to our queries & has directed his centre to disconnect calls when any customer wants to speak to him.
The Sports Channels viz. Neo Cricket & Sports & Ten Sports have been removed from the list of channels without assigning any reason nor intimated in advance about the deletion.
The Customer service is also fooling around saying that these channels are under maintenance. This reply is being given to us since July 02.
I would be like to inform you that the Set top box has been mal functioning since the last 4 - 5 weeks. It automatically jumps channels, when a channel change key is depressed, it goes to volume function. "PLEASE WAIT" Signal has been a very common feature when channels are switched and it hangs indefinately.
Simmilarly, VOIP service is also pathetic. When the service is needed the most, it does not function & Customer Service is of no use as a Technical Help is never available.-- Just to remind you, VOIP is a service which is ment to make calls to the USA & the local timingsthere would be during our Night time. Hence an help which is assured within 2 days is of "NO USE" as time is the essance. Why sould we pay for such a service Rental of Rs. 150/- monthly when it does not work when it is needed. It is a totally waste of money for a service which indeed is IN NO WAY A SERVICE and that could be put to better use.
I am still awaiting a response to my mail sent on 15th Sept '09 attached here within
The IPTV Service provider AKSH has added Star Sports, Star Cricket & ESPN with a condition that I have to "PAY ADDITIONAL RS. 150/- OVER AND ABOVE RS. 100/- TO GET THESE CHANNELS CUPPLED WITH OTHER CHANNELS WHICH I DONT WANT TO SUBSCRIBE".
I am aware the the Hon'able Minister has specifically mentioned that Rs. 5/- (Rupees Five only) has to be charged for any Additional Channel requested by the Subscriber.
This is "CHEATING AND NOT ETHICAL ON THE PART OF AKSH WILLFULLY PUSHING THE SUBSCRIBER TO PAY FOR UNWANTED CHANNELS."
I had spoken to the Mumbai Regional in-charge on 15th September instant who has failed in reverting or intimating me the status of my mails.
I feel it is also some sort of SCAM which they are trying to hide.
Such Agencies associated with MTNL are causing ir-repairable bad image of MTNL also which over the years has created an excellent Telecom Service provider.
I earnestly request your good selves to look into the matter urgently and PROTECT THE INTEREST OF WE COMMON CITIZENS setting an example to others not try such tricks.

Everyone faces problem with the pvt. companies very regularly. But I always faces problem with one of the India's Largest telephone and mobile service provider MTNL specially during the bill payment time. Inspite of repeated reminders and telephone calls to their office and even talking to the Senior officials the problem remains the same. The have given an option of payment through credit card on their site. But it never works for the last 12 months. Even if it works for some time it takes atleast 15 min. to process a payment. This is the conditions of the the largest telephone service provider. But same works very well and fast if you want to pay through netbanking. WHAT A PITY. Anyway we should always proud to have such payment facility under Govt of India banner.

Sub : 1) Excess & Incorrect Utilization / Consumption of MB Data Shown in my account 2) Slow speed of Internet

Dear Sir,

I wish to inform you that my account has been showing an excess & incorrect utilization of MB data, resulting an excess billing to my account. For example, for 10/09/09, a utilization of 38.48 MB data is being shown during the time 12:38 p.m. to 12:53 p.m. even my compuetr was not even switched on for Internet for the whole day on 10/09/09. Similarly, on 11/09/09 from 02:57 p.m. to 03:33 p.m. the internet was not used but utilization of 36.39 MB is being shown in my account. Also the the month of Aug. 2009, a total MB of 629.21 is shown in a/c but it is confirmed that not more than 300 MB was utilized during the same period. This is very surprising and unbelievable.

In this connection, I have sent an email to helpdesk.[protected]@bol.net.in on 16/09/09 and also submitted my complaint personally at MTNL, Ganesh Pura office, Tri Nagar, Delhi-35 on 17/09/09, but it is deeply regretted to say that neither any feedback / reply has been received from any office / officail nor the problem is resolved till date. I hereby again request you to please look into the matter on priority and get the issue resolved as soon as possible. Any excess & incorrect billing to my account may kindly be reversed / adjusted accordingly.

I have paid a bill of 2500 for a month for down load charges for watching IPTV
I have seen the seeion history of download charges and has opserved download everytime I switch on the TV. People using IPTV please check your download bills and session history.
From july to sept I have given three written complain still there is no reponse
How to get MTNL to respond any one know any complain escallation matrix in mumbai.
If this is experience by other consumers also than I feel this attracts cheating & criminal case against IPTV and MTNL. If some knows the legality please sue MTNL for the case of cheating.

Hi,
For past couple of months I have been facing server problems with MTNL triband connection (area is kharghar). I have to frequently call 1504 for resolution.They say that it is a server problem and do something and it gets rectified.This is happening more frequently. I have complained this many time but no answer. On contacting customer care they give me numbers of DGM and when I call them they give me other numbers. I have tried to contact these numbers
27897500, 27562525, 27742000 and some of them pick and asks me to contact somebody else.
and the one at kharghar 27742000 (some body named Dharve or Garve) never picks up the phone.
I need an resolution to this and would like to inform all the people who are facing this trouble donot pay internet rental for the month you are having this problem and inform the billing department at prabhadevi about the same.Unless and until this is done these guys will keep on asking you to call this person and that person
