BSNL launched the first VoIP service in the country last year. But the service was not going so well. Since it was one of the first kind in the country, people are excited about the launch. But it doesn’t reach its expectation. Since the launch, BSNL is still receiving a large number of complaints regarding the service.

Last month BSNL launched the official mobile application to use the VoIP service. But this also went wrong. The application was officially launched with many bugs, and still, BSNL doesn’t manage to fix it. We also noted many people are posting their complaints in the Google Play store comment section.

The lack of exact directions and support made things more complex in the case of Wings. However, we also faced some issues and fixed them to some extent. So here we are providing some tips, suggestions, and solutions for some issues. The following finding is from our experience.

1 – How long will take to get a BSNL Wings connection?
