Hahahaaa…!!!!
You will definitely loose more customers in Kerala as people taken connection in names of their known ones,they has no way but to surrender their connection while private operators helps their customers in tweaking the identity.
NAME CHANGE POSSIBLE TO EXISTING USERS IN BSNL
Yes, the Aadhaar of the current customer will be updated in the database. That is the reason this drive is carried out and only Aadhaar holders can use mobile or link to your kith and kin Aadhaar id
This linking is a cumbersome process as the customer has to go to BSNL outlet / agent in person .The linking should be made like that in the case of PAN with Aadhaar or Ban account with Aadhaaar.
re-verification process must be simplified.
yes sir,
it should be sitting home based on OTP, rather than going to CSR of BSNL counter and waste the time.
BSNL management should understand the business , protect customer retention policy and make the process of Aadhar linking simplified so that customers can link their mobile with Aadhar sitting at Home. Recently, when I visited their BSNL Service Center, it is a bad experience that BSNL employee who is near to his retirement was manned at this CSC and after wasting a two hours I returned back empty handed as the process for each one was taking more than an hour. So, BSNL management wake up themselves that you should not disturb your business in fear of Aadhar linking
why changing name
Life in Qs. Earlier chnging old money Before BANK/ ATM
then linking PAN with AADHAR nd updating AADHRA to match PAN.
Now linking AADHAR to mob nos. Ja ebery beginning will be difficult. Later in India no has will be known with their names rather with AADHAR NO. Good move. People will be writing down thrir No on cloth to recognize them.
I have more than one BSNL mobile number in my name. Can i link one Aadhar to all mobile numbers of mine.
Yes. Upto 6 numbers.
I have one bsnl sim ,
Can I joined to my adhaar no
Bsnl should make this process simpler by allowing online verification.why to go to bsnl centre and q??
Thanks for you bsnl company
Thanks

Provide a Online facility to Customers to link their Aadhar Number with Mobile. Nowadays Mobile phone comes with fingerprint scanner, So this make easy for everyone . No one is interested in going to customer care and waiting to do this.

There is post paid connection with two add on SIMs wich are used by different family members and while enrolling to Aadhaar those numbers were feeded to aadhaar of each members. If all the three numbers are linked in the name of one is it will create discrepancy and what will be the status of the number feeded to aadhaar for the purpose of receiving OTP for making online corrections in the aadhaar? If the tree numbers are linked with aadhaar of different individuals who are using it, what will be the fate of two rent free add on connections? If the principle connection is linked with aadhaar of my son will the connection be automatically transferred to his name? If so whether he will be inherited for the right of deposits made when the connection is surrendered? If not whether there is any option to register a nomination?
I HAD GONE TO THE BSNL CUSTOMER CARE CENTRE ON 17TH OF JULY TO LINK MY MOBILE NO WITH THE AADHAR CARD. THE OFFICER HAS DONE ALL THE PROCEDURE. I HAVE RECEIVED MESSAGE FOR REVERIFICATION AFTER 2 DAYS. I HAVE IMMEDIATELY REPLIED WITH 'REV YES' BUT STILL MY MOBILE NO IS NOT REGIDTERED WITH AADHAR NO. NOR I HAVE RECEIVED ANY MESSAGE EITHER FROM BSNL OR FROM UIDAI. I HAVE TO VERIFY MY IT RETURNS FOR WHICH LIKING OF MOBILE WITH AADHAR IS A MUST. HOW LONG SHOULD I WAIT FOR LINKING OF MOBILE WITH AADHAR.
With BSNL like service provider, Sir go the nearest temple and pray for it. That is what you can immediately do.
For the Income TAX Purpose Link your mobile with Aadhaar. These two are different things, 1) Aadhaar link with mobile number 2) Mobile number link with Aadhaar. So, don't confuse with the two terms. Goto the Aadhaar Center and link you mobile number with it.
Can we go to akshaya centre and link our mobile number with Aadhar?
These two thinks are 1) mobile no link with aadhar 2) mobile no registered with aadhar for income tax purpose it is mandatory that mobile no registered with aadhar not link
CHECK BY SENDING MESSAGE TO 53734 "REV NAME". WILL GIVE DETAILS OF YOUR SUCCESSFUL REGISTRATION.
I am paraplegic.I could not Go to Bsnl custemercare in person to link adhar and do the biometric thumping.. How can I link aadhar to my BSNL sim..Give a reply.. If a moblie app for customers is ibtroduced then we can directly link adhar to sim.

What happens if i have bsnl connection in Karnataka but my aadhar is from kerala.The shopkeeper told me its not possible to reverify such connections.I tried it it showed customer belongs to other circle.What can i do now?
My docomo no . is already linked with adhaar which is my primary number and upay in my all bank s and officials. If now I link my BSNL number then will it effect my docomo no. ? I don't want to unlink my docomo number from adhaar.
So what about NRIs … how do they e-verify?
It's crazy in India where on the one hand the court rules that Aadhar is not mandatory and on the other necessitates the need of this card for almost every other Government transaction.

Sir,I have already attahed my mobile number to adhaar Is it necessary to again link the same mobile number to the same adhaar number?
MY BSNL PRE PAID MOBILE NO ACTIVATED DURING 2005, WORKING CONTINUOUSLY WITH OUT ANY DIS-CONNECTION, BUT RECENTLY WHEN I APPROACHED BSNL CUSTOMER CARE FOR MICRO SIM CONVERSION, I GIVEN VOTERS ID AS ADDRESS PROOF, BUT THEY SAID THIS NO. WAS REGISTERED WITH SOME OTHER STRANGE PERSON. WE CANNOT ISSUE MICRO SIM TO ME. HOW I WILL LINK THIS NO. WITH MY AADHAAR. WHO WILL DO THE BSNL DATA BASE CORRECTION, ORIGINATED FROM THEIR OWN CLERICAL ERROR. WHAT PROOF I WILL GIVE, TO SHOW I ONLY WAS USED THIS NO. FOR THE LAST 12 YEARS.
It does not matter, on whose name sim is registered currently. You can link to any AADHAAR and all the registartion details will be updated with your details.
I have more than one BSNL mobile number in my name. Can i link one Aadhar to all mobile numbers of mine.
can i link my mobile no. online…if can't now, make a way for online linking
Linking Linking and Linking. The whole day linking Aadhaar with one thing or other and in the night time linking wife with some thing else, what a fun
Linking PAN with Adhaar was not difficult. One could do it online. Linking bank accounts to Adhaar was OK: just fill out a form and give Adhaar copy. BSNL definitely know my name; so why they cannot simply verify my Adhaar card and link the number? BSNL customer service centres are overcrowded, and their servers have become too slow. Another minus mark for BSNL!
I went to BSNL Office to do E-KYC for my mobile phones, but as I have three phones with a single BSNL account, I was asked to come again, as it could not be done at present.
My Account Number is 501837379, Mobile Number 9446546182, 9446546183 and 9446506182.
Can you help please.
