How guys u getting BSNL sim?

This is what i found. They told Freedom plan is not there. But, many have recharged. Still on confusion.

All BSNL users pls check with CC@1503 before using any USSD codes/SMS activations

I remember seeing in regional newspaper (eenadu) 1 week back that PV 36/37 vailidity is now reduced to 90 days (AP Circle)

CC @hese @getready @161508

Here’s the list of plans for Karnataka circle

http://www.karnataka.bsnl.co.in/s...df

Personal experience: Much better network reception than airtel and sufficient internet speed. I choose 87 plan for 1 sim and 153 plan for other. There’s also 106 and 107 plan for MNP customers available through C-Top up only, which gives 100Rs. talk time and 180 days validity.

check promotional offer of your circal bsnl web
there will be 36/37 plan for validity
there is one option to use 24 rs for 100 minutes for 90 days its best lowest user option

i remember there was a 2 year validity pack for 2rs when u go through *124# … donno if it is still there

EDIT: just now checked in their website
https://portal2.bsnl.in/myportal/quickrecha...do

5rs , validity until feb 2020

All persons who already have balance, can directly activate ₹153 / yearly plan by
Sending SMS – PLAN BSNL153 to 123

Also send STVENQ to 123 to make enquiry

Is there any biometric aadhar verification for sim activation BSNL office in Bangalore.

In JP nagar, I still see having old process of filling the manual form.

I will be porting my mother’s Vodafone no. to BSNL next week. One thing though, are there rate cutters available on BSNL? Like on Voda I would do a tiny Rs.17/18 recharge and it would make all the phone calls at 30 paisa per minute and that would last for like 56 days or whatever, its not available any more, but it was when humanity was sane anyway, so things like that available on BSNL? Just keeping a SIM is meaningless, if you are not able to call from it. And without any rate cutter 100 rupee balance will be gone in less than an hour of phone call!

Sorry for bumping up this thread. But all the discussion was of a year ago. BSNL was subjected to many changes after that. What is the latest info.

What is the best BSNL recharge to just keep the number alive ?
