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service, and there are no charges for landline if availing broadband internet, and due to any reason, if the customer withdrawn the broadband facility, but continuing the landline facility, he/she is having two types of deposits against their telephone number (If old customer before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).
