Preface

BSNL rolled out a project called UDAAN few years back in 2010. It was all about applying or upgrading broadband and landline services on the go. You could be able to apply or upgrade by sending SMS or making phone calls to the BSNL toll-free numbers.

Since then BSNL has made the opting-in and out of services for their customers better. Now, you can request changes to your existing plans right from your selfcare account dashboard.

Similarly, you can also apply for other BSNL services in your area including EVDO, FTTH, Wi-Max etc.

The rest of this article guides you to apply for an upgrade or downgrade of your existing broadband plan. In other words, we are gonna do it instantly using the internet, with the help of BSNL’s selfcare site.

Because every BSNL customer is provided with a selfcare account, I assume that you too have access to it. You may now proceed as directed in below given steps.

  1. Firstly, visit https://selfcare.bsnl.co.in and log in with your selfcare username and password.
    Login page of BSNL Selfcare Website

After that, you will soon be contacted by BSNL Broadband support for confirmation of the request. As a result, your new plan will be activated the very next day.

On the other hand, landline users can also request plan change by calling 1500 (toll-free Broadband helpline). But the selfcare portal method is much easier to do so.

Hope this saved you time. Meanwhile, if you submitted a change request just now, you must read how to check request status.
