People there are absolutely not proactive :( They can silently delay your work for months citing silly reasons later, like 'nobody opened the door when our wireman came to your place'. They need to be pushed. The more you push them, the better things will work for you. Most of the time, there is no point is talking to anybody below the post of SDE(subdivisional engg). They give empty promises. Better talk to someone senior, they are more responsive and responsible. Ask for their mobile phone number. Generally, they give it. Then, you can query them whenever you want ;) Tell them, that i want this done or else i'll switch to Reliance or TATA or whatever. Stating this at the right time was found to have appreciable effects :P If you have some 'contact' in BSNL, then nothing like it :) 2 cents i earned from experience...
