PS: I am no longer pursuing these RTIs. I have no plans to take BSNL (and MTNL) to Central Information Commission even though I should have a strong case against both of these companies.

Your efforts are very well appreciated.

Just do this I guess. I have given up following on the RTI complaints.

Hi, would this be enough?

I have also blocked BSNL in Adblock Plus.
I'm using Google's Public DNS both in router level/ settings & Windows Local Area Connection from 2-3 years.
I keep getting lot of mail bsnl redirects & I get fewer annoying pop-up boxes, but sadly those pop-up even hijack Kaspersky's Register popup window on desktop (that connects to net daily once if one's using a KIS 2016 trial, I do) which is not even using a browser to begin with.

Well. You are on BSNL. You tell if this works?

 

[Nishant]

And they've started the shit again :envy:

 

[efan]

This was the last straw for me. Shows utter contempt for the user.

 

[Nishant]

This shit still continues. Another irritation is the mail.bsnl.in redirection whenever my primary link goes down and the load balance router falls back to BSNL.

OMG. I am irritated to the core. Now, the ads block the page from being viewed. Demonetisation survey seems to be the newest ad now. It doesn't go even if you answer it. One has to click the close button in order to proceed further to see the actual site.

they are showing up UL1199 Plan banner right bottom of the browser window occasionally .
i am on 545UL plan.

 

[pothi]

You'll start seeing more banners now. The ads show irrespective of the plan. What's more irritating is how frequent they are at times.

The ads can't intercept SSL enabled sites, such as broadbandforum.co . I wish the entire internet moves to SSL!

Recently I've seen a lot of http-only websites (such as Steam) not working properly anymore, so I decided to check the network activity.

There isn't really much more to say than this:

It sends a link to a 3rd party tracker with the request URL and my subscriber ID. heh

so they have also dumped adphonso! or maybe adphonso guys rebranded themselves as phozeca.

if banner ads are not coming right now, they would eventually!

mtnl switched to phozeca recently.

MTNL (General) - MTNL Broadband is now injecting ads through Phozeca in browsing sessions
