[Resolved]  Airtel Digital TV — Set Top box not working

Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

On 4th Nov evening technician came and changed the setoff box, and told us that within 24 hours it will be activated, now it is 48 hrs, nothing has happened, yesterday receptionist from the service centre called me and asked me to pay Rs 750/-. Why should I pay this amount, I have been facing problem from the day I have purchased this connection.
1) within 1 month of purchase the cable was changed.
2) within 6 months of purchase setoff box was changed with a repaired one, which frequently gave trouble.
3) Several time I faced the no signal problem and your tech. would come and fiddle around the antenna and it will become all right.
4) after warranty period for the same issue of no signal, charged me Rs 100/- and did something in the antenna.
5) within a week again no signal problem, they changed the LNBC by charging Rs 160/-
6) within a week Set off box defective ( complaint lodged on 24th Oct) till the problem not resolved.
Who is going to compensate for the mental agony I and my family is going through for last 18 months?
Pls settle the issue without any further delay with a proper compensation.

AIRTEL DIGITAL TV — Remote not given with STB

Dear Sir/Madam, Date: 25-March-2011
I bought Airtel DTH along with Sony Bravia offer, when service engineers came for installing(15-March-2011) it there is no remote with STB, the service engineer assured me of giving it on the very next day. And it is almost 2 weeks. Even after complaining it to the airtel customer care no response. It is really very bad and i never thought such a worst service from airtel. Before coming to pune i have been using airtel in chennai which is the best service i ever seen. Customer ID:[protected]. Complaint no:6190419. Now i am even thinking of discountinuing it.

Could someone please look into this issue and resolve it ASAP.
For last two days, My set top box is not working( Customer ID [protected] ). its showing SM2 error code. I have been trying customer care regarding this. first its not get connected and if get connected, they often put you on hold or they will cut it flaty.
No body is listening. buying digital tv was the worst dicision i ahve ever made.
only two days back new connection and new set box has been installed and since inception quality is entirely unsatisfactory rather not working replace the same immediately.
I am using Digital TV (cust ID [protected]). It is non fuctional from last 4 days. I registered complain to customer care (complaint ID[protected]. Before solution to problem customer care send the message problem is resolved & if you still face the problem call on [protected]. I tried to call on this no but it is not working. I am very much upset because of the customer care response. I don't know how to get it resolved as customer care is not responding & Airtel don't have service centers. Where to go for problem.

AIRTEL DIGITAL TV — Complaint regarding changing of Setup Box

Dear Sir

My name is Rajesh Kumar with my Customer ID- [protected]

My setup box is not working and out of order since the past 15days and is of no use. I had called up in customer care on[protected] explaining my grievance and my complaint was registered with number 10987947. They told me that an engineer will be visiting your house on[protected]. The engineer visited the same day i.e.[protected] and after seeing the warranty slip (dated[protected] he said that he will not be able to provide us with free service as the slip was old and according the company's new plan the warranty lasts only for 90days, but it was clearly mentioned in the slip with us that the expiry of the warranty is 181days. This fact was brought to the notice of the senior executives Mr. Sangram Acharya and Mr. Deepak Mistry through various customer care number. It was then promised by them that the set-up box will be replaced within the next day of the call. It is further stated that the engineers did visit on the next date. It is now very important to note that every engineer that visited my house asked me to proove that the senior executive has promised me that the set-up box will be replaced for free. After my ample efforts and various calls to the customer care department no action has yet been taken. Further the customer care executives are not ready to listen and respond to the request made by me. On top of that they dissconect my calls as soon as I state my problem to them. My warranty expires on[protected]. It is clear from the actions and attitude of the company that it is just trying to lapse the time of warranty so that I am helpless for any further action and made to pay.

In view of the above I demand for an immediate action for my request and also request for an written reply for the trouble and mental agony caused to me at the very earliest. The failure to this will compel me to take legal action and file a complaint to the Consumer Court against the company.
