BSNL's 'Free Internet' Offer

BSNL's 'Free Internet' Offer

Techtree News Staff, Dec 25, 2008 0830 hrs IST

Local call rates -- Pulse rate@450 seconds from 0730-2230 and 900 seconds from 2230-0730, pay along with telephone bill

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has offered an extension to its so-called free dial-up internet surfing facility to subscribers until December 2008.

This is the company's 'account-free' Calling Line Identification (CLI) based 'Net One' dial-up internet service. This means, if you use a BSNL landline, you need not pay anything to get started on the internet.

To start surfing:

1. Connect your telephone jack to your PC or laptop.

2. Initiate a dial-up connection with the access code 172222.

3. Enter a username (STD code without zero + your telephone number), followed by a password of your choice.

Once you're connected, you will be charged only for the local calls -- Pulse rate@450 seconds from 0730-2230 and 900 seconds from 2230-0730. You'll receive the Internet bill along with your telephone bill.

We aren't sure whether we should recommend any of the BSNL helpline numbers (they seldom work) to obtain more details on this subject. In the mean time, you could visit the BSNL website for your respective state (click here) for more information.

BSNL is fraud on all fronts it deals. No one hears your complaint. In case broadband disconnect frequently they blame your computer. For all their lapses they prepare answer. One cannot depend landline as you never know when the cable will be stolen as they make full arrangement for cable theives... My phone remained disconnectted for one month as cable was uprooted by crane working for road construction. No one has foresightedness for running smooth network. In mobiles they have most obsolete technolgy for their towers Companies like Airtel or Reliance have one Tower whereas BSNL have three but no signal. They distribute free sims to their customers . Inspite of reading all the problems they least bother to help consumers. The problem with them is they jump in each field without making that complete. Their problem is appointment of right technical people for job. They have more of officers than real practical people. Every customer is more concerned in quality of service. The problem is non availability of service at all places as competition still lacks and consumer suffers. They must review themselves for their existence.
