i have taken 3g connection of bsnl for my ipad in punjab ,but am not satisfied with the service.the network is very week and net is so slow that broadband service is better than it. to top of it no body is there to listen to complaint
For the use of Micro sim, BSNL is charging Rs. 600.00 per month for the use of 6 GB. One may not require 6 GB in a month. Can the BSNL think of something around Rs. 300.00 per month for the use of say 3 GB? Then persons like me can make use of the facilities offered by BSNL.
