Any idea where to check lowest plan for mtnl. I was told minimum is 180+got, Mumbai circle
 
This is the link for the plans.

This is the link to sign in to your account (for changing plan, checking bills, etc.)
 
My Landline was 60 year or older... my grand parents time.... But since 2 years, I had never hear that landline ring. No one called on landline. Was only used as internet backup on by load balance router.
So disconnected 10 days ago, at MIDC Marol Andheri Mumbai exchange. They were not bothered and in 3 hours phone was disconnected.
They gave 2 workorders. One to disconnect triband and other for landline disconnection.
They took simple letter of disconnection and pan and aadhar copy. Process is very simple to disconnect. Just pay last bill beforehand and visit them and they are so happy to disconnect !
 
In letter only I mentioned that i am using my own instrument and cpe / modem and Splitter
 
yup.... but I saw you wrote that you had 60 years old connection, that is why... over the years they must have replaced your dialer type phone to push button type... and ultimately it would have been in your possession even if you were using your own instrument...

I surrendered my home landline 4-5years ago and had to return the phone in working condition.... and had to be submitted at SDO office and acknowledgement of that to be submitted at different office..... I think I had to visit 3-4 offices at different times to complete the process...
 
All that surrender of phone instruments, dialer type and push types, running piller to post was done by my father 15 years ago... I did the running around surrendering their modem and using my own adsl. And i finally completed the final Surrendering and final closure. My grandfather started it 65 years ago and I completed it. Somewhere on their portal mtnlmumbai.In you can see the activation date and I remember it was in year 1954 or something near that.
 
How I got rid of my landline connection
The broadband connection I got rid of a few years before. And absolutely no regrets though nostalgia does creep in sometimes only to get booted out quickly 🤣

Why is Pan or Aadhar needed to surrender landline and connection? I was going to go to do it today.
