    @BSNL_UPEast @BSNLCorporate BSNL's service is very poor. If the power goes out for five hours, the BSNL network goes down. The BSNL network only comes back on when the power returns. Doesn't BSNL have a backup generator?

    @bsnl_care bsnl network is worst ever network provider. Only good for voice calls but not for browsing etc. Very disappointed switching over from jio. Not able to compete with other network providers. Customer care services are so poor that one can not connect to the executive.

    @TRAI @AshwiniVaishnaw Banks have launched new 8-digit toll-free numbers for customer support, but BSNL hasn’t updated its directory yet. As a result, calls to these numbers aren’t going through. Because of this, I’m unable to contact my bank to get my credit card unblocked.
