I know this will not be of any use, and may be bit childish too lol

Anyway, please have a look at

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited - BSNL - delays new telephone connection without any valid reason

No, no google ads and nothing commercial

Also, email me your comments - info@waitingforbroadband.com

The money you SPEND on domain and hosting (if it's yours), if the same amount you offered to BSNL Line Man in your AREA you never need to wait for so long time.

Don't You know the Indian RULE ?:bleh:

Use RIGHT TO INFORMATION LAW and see within 1 month you will get Solution, I am serious.

Thank you, I am going to try filing RTI

But regarding the 'Indian Rule', lol, I already know that. I did that long back ;) Thats the reason I got the telephone connection atleast !
 
I filed a request under the - RTI - Right To Information Act 2005. Will see whether they consider it seriously or not. Copy of my request is here ...

i feel your pain man... me from trivandrum:D
at least once you get it , its better than asianet :hap2:
 
Yes, I remember using Asianet in my office in Cochin. First it was good but later became pathetic. Here I have no other alternatives, thats why I am keep trying on BSNL.

Thing is they never take things seriously :( They r like, 'well, you will get broadband but we can't tell when' :(
 
A nice email that came through the contact form just now

"You better stop your bloody campaign against BSNL. I promise you that you are never going to get the broad band connection . Do you think we will get scared by an RTI ?. We can even bring down your web site if we want. W can even take back the phone connection you already got.

"


LOL, the guy wrote his name as -Ramu kansirk- didn't give his email address, else I could have sent even more nice reply ;)
 
very nicely done up site bro, why dont u put up a small visitor comment book there for the nice bsnl people to read,maybe collecting that may make u feel nice :P\\p.s. how did an email come thru without u knowin his email address
 
I set the comment form with email address as non-mandatory. Thats why I couldn't track it. He claims to be from BSNL but I don't care ;)

Ferrai, happy to know it is better for you. Unfortunately I had a bitter experience :( And till today BSNL didn't admit their mistake, nor they are trying to rectify it

^^ go to some other internet service provider. why wasting ur time with those stupid ppl?

Yaar, I know its kinda childish and waste of time makin a site etc, but I do not have any alternatives. Thats the reason why I am behind BSNL. If theres any alternative, I will surely go for em, but helpless at present :(
 
First, thank you very much for your comments. Some of the people who visited the site told me it is too detailed and they do not have time to go through the entire site, so it will be nice if I make it very short. So here it is - for those who are very busy

1. I have applied for the BSNL tel conn in 2003, I have no complaints for waiting till 2006 as I know there was no option to give me conn, waiting list was long etc. In Jan 2006, I came top of waiting list, Feb 2006, they told me everything is ready and in March 2006, they sent a fesibility report (official written report with sig, seal etc) telling everything is ok and ready. But then they told me some major work is needed to give me connection. As I am not that good in the telecom tech terms, I believed it and waited again. They kept telling the same for about six months and then all of a sudden, told me it is not feasible. Then I started sending requests to PG cell, higher officials etc. Finally the General Manager - BSNL - came to know that and give strict order to provide conn immediately. Now they started working. So I got the conn in Aug end 2006. I was there when they worked for my conn and I came to know that 'the major work needed' took only 6 hrs ! They delayed it from Feb 2006 to Aug end 2006 without any valid reason. For a 6 hr work, they took more than 6 months.

2. Another thing they mentioned that they couldn't locate a tel conn near my house (they had the tel number, but not the address !!) and that is the reason for delay. I was travelling a lot and I couldn't check with em for about one month. Evenafter one month, they repeated the same thing. I asked them the number, went to BSNL portal, then directory search and found the address in 3 mins. Then I went out (it was near my home) and enquired about the person, address etc and got exact details in 30 mins. I handed over it to the person (BSNL official) who was supposed to get the details. So for a thing which takes 33 mins exactly they took 30 days !!

3. Due to the two things mentioned above, my position in the waiting list for broadband came down to 82 fom number 1. 64 people in the waiting list got BB and I am still waiting for it. It was not because of any mistake form my side.

4. The website is not for supporting any Pvt ISP or bashing BSNL without any solid proof. Whatever mentioned in the site is 100% true and I have proof for everything. All requests I sent were registered letters and I included the copies of the same in the website

5. I found a BSNL Officers yahoo group and sent them all a very polite request to have a look at the site. I didn't expect any miracles (my experiences with BSNL taught me, never expect any miracles !) and I received replies like - I am anit-national, I am sponsored by some PVT ISP, I lie a lot, I didn't send any requests to officials etc. Most replied didn't even go through the entire site. As they are in BSNL it is much easy for them to verify whether things mentioned in the site is true or I am just exaggerating things. But nobody cared.

6. I do not have any other alternative (no other ISP in my area) and that is the reason I am behind BSNL

Anyway, I got a lot of support through internet and I really appreciate the great help. For example, many asked me to file request under RTI and I did so. That seems working, but again I am not very optimistic about the broadband connection.

Thank you all, I will keep you updated
