In most of the HD channels there is frequent video frame freeze, video pixellation and video and audio jitter problems . The picture in HD Ten channel which used to be the most clearest one is constantly freezing and the screen is blanking every now and then showing an indication "Poor signal" at the top left of the screen. Whenever it is tried to make this complaint in the Asianet Digital Customer Care complaint no: [protected] the person answering at the Asianet customer care replies that "This is a common issue" and he/she hesitates to register the complaint and give the complaint no: in return. When I insisted the lady customer care executive to register my complaint she put me on hold for a long time and gave me a complaint no: and replied that a Technician will attend the complaint and call me back. Thereafter I have not received any SMS in my mobile no:, registered with Asianet, regarding the registering of the complaint and the complaint no: which I normally used to get from Asianet. Within half an hour of my complaining I was able to see that all the above channels started to render smooth videos though at visibly lower video resolution. I guess they did some tweaking or tinkering of the video streams to temporarily make the reception in my area ok. No Technician has called me back and after 2 days I am still facing the same above mentioned problems in the same HD channels. Whenever a complaint is to be made to Asianet customer care we are bound to lose minimum Rs 6/- as phone charges since the whole process of interacting with the customer care executive and the time that the executive put our call on hold during the conversation takes minimum 7 to 8 minutes.It is high time that Asianet stop fooling its HD consumers with these kinds of cheap and unjust actions and start providing proper permanent good quality cable TV service to all those who have fully paid for their proper cable TV service in advance.
