Do you want to get back the refund of broadband deposit paid by you to BSNL, just follow the process and get your internet security deposit back even if your landline is in working condition?
Up to the mid of 2018, the ISP has collected landline and broadband security deposits separately from their customers at Rs 500 for landline and one month plan rental charges for BSNL broadband subscription, but now in 2019, the pattern of collecting the BSNL Security deposit is changed and collecting only deposit.
As we all know, Landline is mandatory for broadband service, and there are no charges for landline if availing broadband internet, and due to any reason, if the customer withdrawn the broadband facility, but continuing the landline facility, he/she is having two types of deposits against their telephone number (If old customer before 2018).

To provide the best service to customers, BSNL allows to withdraw the security deposit paid by them for broadband if they discontinue the internet service and continuing the landline, but the refund will be issued in the form of coming telephone bill adjustment.
Process to get refund of broadband security deposit
Refund required customers may approach to concerned BSNL commercial officer and submit your written request for refund of broadband security deposit in the next coming telephone bills, then the authority can raise a deposit adjustment request to concerned Accounts Officer in their CDR module.
After keen verification of services and outstanding dues, the Accounts Officer of BSNL may approve the request for adjustment of broadband deposit in present/future bills.
- In how many bills, the broadband deposit may adjusted?
As per the outstanding amount of the telephone, the security deposit may adjust in the bills
Ex: If having 675 as Security deposit, but having an outstanding only 500, then the deposit may adjust in two bills. - Is there any prescribed application form for security deposit refund?
No, just submit a written request to commercial officer.
- At the time of adjustment, the total security deposit may adjust or only broadband fees?
If the customer is continuing the landline service and disconnected only broadband service, then the landline deposit may continue as earlier.
- When the security deposit to be paid, If disconnected landline/ broadband services ?
If withdrawn the total telecom services, BSNL security deposit refund will be processed initiated immediately after completing the closure of landline / broadband service work orders, and to be paid to the bank account of the customer through NEFT with in short time.

Past one year no communication from BSNL. I approached the BSNL Kodambakkam office in the Accounts Department. two times. Nothing response. Last three days back i approached then they request a blank cheque crossed. I said i already handed-over and however again i gave it.
I am aged 74 and my wife is 70 years old. No other persons with us. I cannot go each time to BSNL office because from my house to office 6 KM. No public service connected. I engage an Auto for which for on ward Rs. 150 and return for Rs. 170. Moreover I was affected by CORONA and admitted in for 32 days and discharged. This is my position.
Keeping the public money for a year without any service is too bad.
I request the same may be refunded very early.

It is breach of contractual obligation of BSNL for NOT refunding the Security Deposit as well as the bill paid during the faulty phone period, I have deposited the LL and submitted all refund and bank details, NO action from the already sunken BSNL, What action can sue against BSNL for NOT refunding the security deposit collected,

My LL no.8645246549 and A/c no.9021762399.
Initially I have paid deposits for LL and ISD. Later I had BB connection and deposits as well as modem charges along with installation charges are paid. When BB discontinued I have not claimed modem and installation charges.
After nearly 4 years, I have approached bsnl for BB connection by online registration due to covid19. BSNL organisation have given BB connection on 7th August 20 after a lapse of 4 months. BSNL has given connection by furnishing I’d only. No modem and installation is claimed since the deposits paid previously.
Now the bill raised shows one time deposit of 250 is claimed. Is it justifiable. Please clarify.
