[Resolved]  Gujarat Telelink Pvt Ltd — Not broadcasting ESPN

Address:Gandhinagar, Gujarat

Gujarat Telelink Private Ltd. (GTPL), a major multi service operator (MSO) holds over 60 % of the cable network market in Gujarat. Recently, it denied to pay an outstanding due amount of 14 crores to ESPN that resulted in the stoppage of broadcasting ESPN and Star- Sports and hence deprived its consumers of the most popular sporting event on earth FIFA World Cup 2010 in spite of consumers paying them proper rental charges. Cable operators always keep giving assurances to its consumers that these mega events will get broadcasted and still they have deprived their consumers from French Open, now FIFA World Cup and if the tussle continues, consumers will be deprived of Wimbledon as well. It is a heartbreak for lakhs of soccer fans in the state, 60,000 in Ahmedabad itself. Therefore, I sincerely request you to take action against GTPL, end this payment tussle and resume the broadcast of ESPN as soon as possible so that we do not miss the live action of this great event. Whole of Gujarat will be thankful to you.

GTPL is really inconsiderate and totally curropt and inefficient
Pakistan, China are getting free signals of Fifa, whereas in India we are being forced to pay Rs 72 per viewer .
Why is our government silent on this injustice being done.
Infact thes very channels are even exploiting the situation to extect money from public.
The rate per viewer of Rs 72 is not logical as the entire money we pay to our operators is approximately Rs 200 per month.
This monthly payment of Rs 200 includes all the channels we pay, then how is it possible to just pay Rs 72 per month to Espn alone.

These very pay channels are charging Rs 32 per month toDTH and for the same content cable operators are being asked to pay Rs 72.
This is a very big scam of govt in connivance with DTH companies to extract maximum amount of money from general public..
There should be an enquiry against the exploitation of public and cable operators by these channels.
It is a tragedy how we have been left at the mercy of these channels to be exploited with govt supporting ourexploitation.
Our cable operator provides us all channels for approximately Rs 25wher0 per month, whereas if we calculate the costing of all channels dones not come less than Rs 480 per month.
So the allegations against are baseless and its a scam to divert the public to purchase DTH so that the public ends up paying Rs Rs 350 to 400 per month to DTH.

My Pandya, I do agree to what you say and also what Lucky has said but over here we are fine to pay Rs. 72 and still deprived of having a look at our favorite sporting events. We talk about scams but can we get a resolution to it so everyone can enjoy FIFA one of the greatest sporting events.
Lets work togateher and let the whole Ahmedabad enjoy FIFA and then Wimbeldon, also the F1 races as well.

can any one tell me one BIG thing...

how come other cable operators able to show those channels..

how they manage to pay 75 per connection..???

in Gujarat we do have many small and big networks and they are showing those channels to there customers..

GTPL give me the answer.. pay 75 from your own pocket just like other operators does.. just because u r too big u think u can do whatever u like.. i know today yr customer has no choice.. they cant leave GTPL because of yr DADAGIRI..

dear all start switching from GTPL to any DTH more and more people use DTH then only it will be cheap in future... this way we can break monopoly of GTPL
