Angry BSNL is cheating its customers

BSNL is cheating its customers by sying Dataone Unlimited 256 kbps and giving a very slow speed most times of 40 to 80 kbps. And also it comes with free continous disconnection. You need to redial to connect.

Most of the time the DataOne 256 Unlimited broadband connection is not reliable because of its low speeds. Even if your computer has good configuration, the speeds are very low. If you need to check its speed you have to wait till early morning 3am. Then you can see its speed of 256kbps.

So its very clear that when more users log in in day time and in the evening the bandwidth is shared. If the customer is paying Rs.900/- per month just for 256kbps than he/she must get the 256kbps all the time even any number of users are connected. The quota must not be shared.

The the worst thing is the customer care. Most time the oldies pick up the phone and doesnt have any knowledge about the bandwidth. And not only that, most of the time the customer care phone rings and no one picks up the call. customer care time 10:30am to 4:30pm (at that time only they will be in the office) and on sundays and holidays there is no customer care. So what BSNL says is that its customers must use the internet only between 10:30am to 4:30pm.

What should we do with the BSNL officials?? Throw stones at them??

All dataone users must send complaints directly to

Thumbs up

Well pal, i have a HOME 500 Connection. It gives me 2.5 GB of free monthly usage with Download speeds upto 256 KBPS!! which simply means that it can download 1 MB @ 5-6 seconds(max). and i get same speed through day or night..

well here are the solutions--
1)u try using some "download accelerator" for downloading files from internet.. that would really increase your speeds
2)u switch over to Home 500 plan coz i think it is the best value plan..
and it gives a free usage from 2AM to 8:00 AM..
and i have downloaded more than 20GB's of data this month using this feature!

I want to know your area bcoz you are telling downloaded more than 20GB's of data this month using free unlimited usage between 2 to 8 a.m.. How ever in my place, i.e. uttarpara(Hooghly/Kolkata) the download speed goes as low as 5 kbps during 2 to 8 A.M. but after 8 a.m. the download speeds become normal i.e. around 210 kbps.please reply.

this is clearly a matter of connection/area traffic . i am receiving a speed of 280 kbps just withmy basic 250 plans . bsnl dataone is very new here and not many people here is having a bsnl broadband.

you may try few registry tweaks it might help ( it helped me during my dial up days)

Hi i think u r not satisfied with thiss 900 plan. U better change the plan to 500 home.. see wat ever u r downloading whole day, am downloading with in 5 hours. That is the major diff. between u and us. (last month i was downloaded 79gb and i got only the 500 rs + tax only). and am wel satisfied with the speed.

so u better change ur plan...

I have never experienced any speed problems with Dataone. Mostly it will be a localised problem.
