DishTV Complaints & Reviews

I have taken Dish Tv True connection in June 2012 for the channels as elaborated in World HD Package @ Rs.385/- per month, but now they have excluded the most important channel Zee Cinema from World HD Package and are asking for purchase of Ala-Cart-pack which is Rs100 per month extra to get included the above excluded channel Zee cinema.

As such now DTH Dish Tv HD pack for which includes only 5 Hindi channels is minimum Rs.385/- monthly charges + Rs.100/- for inclusion of Zee Cinema & some English channels = Rs.485/- per month.

Since I have taken HD connection under the influence that I would have to pay only Rs.385/- per month for the channels as elaborated in World HD package. Because of sudden withdrawal of channels is against fair business practices. Zee Cinema was part of HD World Package at the time of getting Dish Tv True connection so Rs.100/- per month should not be charged from me, otherwise my HD connection should be converted into SD connection under Silver package.

Recently just this month (June 2012) at the time of installation ‘Zee Cinema’ & ‘Travel XP’ were part of Dishtv HD connection World Package, but now they have excluded these channels from broadcasting to the HD Package subscribers and are demanding Rs.100/- per month extra for viewing it as HD channel other than Rs.385/- per month for the cheapest World Package. There are a few channels to view to Hindi speaking families in HD packages, ‘Zee Cinema’ is one of them. After excluding this HD channel only Zee HD (entertainment channel ) & Sony HD remains to be viewed in HD other than English channels except UTV Stars (music channel) & M-Tunes (music channel) in Hindi at the cost of Rs.385/- per month. So to say only 4 channels are available for Hindi speaking families at the cost of Rs.385/- per month. It is very unfair business by Dishtv India Ltd. Once they offer channels and then exclude them from package and ask for extra payment. This is against fair business practices. Once you have taken HD connection, they donot convert it in SD channel package, as such subscriber is compelled to subscribe for HD channels on payment of minimum Rs.385/- per month.

We have given request for reinstallation on 01 June 12, today 16th no body visited. Saying that cable operators issue here, so we have to arrange the technician. So, i have following up for the last 15 days. Now, I asked them to repay Rs.2500 as penalty/charges for delay/inefficiency so that I can go for alternate service provider. Plz do the needful at the earliest. My no [protected], email: [protected]@gmail.com

Dear All

I am an existing customer of dishtv. then i purchased another one new connection from dishtv through online. at the time of purchasing as per the consultation with customer care service it seems to be installed within 24 hours. so i had made the payments. after successful transaction i receieved a massage that it will take 3-5 bussiness days due to remote location (AIZAWL is the Address). but till date i have not got the installation already after one week. by complaining and consulting and after hot arguments somehow i have receieved the materials only. but the installation still it is a dream for me and my family.
DISH TV MAKING FRAUDE WITH ME. also they are lying in all the moments with some false commitment from their end. i donot know why they are saying themselve as the INDIA's NO 1 and how they become ASIA's LARGEST NETWORK....

Dear Sir,
I am the customer of DISH TV since long. MY name is Dinesh Sharma and my
VC
number is [protected]. I would like to draw you kind attention is that DISH TV is misleading
the
customer and getting huge amount by charging subscription for HD chls.
DISH TV is broadcasting HD chls from Chl number 1 to 99 as HD chls.
Dishtv
just put HD word in the chl EPG list, the broadcast is simply SD.
Only few following chls are HD chls from the list of Chls from 1 to 100.
The list of HD chls is
1. colours
2. Sony which was in SD till this month now from this month it is HDd
3. Travel XP
4. Discovery World
5.Net GEO
6. Net GEO Wild
7. NGC Adventure
8. CNBC Prime
9. Sony SIX and
10. M Tune
Dish TV claim in thier promo that they provide more than 45 HD chls and
according to that they charge subscription from the customers. I am
sorry
to say that even the chls being broadcasting by Z TV such as Z TV,Z
Cinema,Z Prime, Z classics and other under bran name Zee are SD and they
are charging for HD.
Respected sir,Pl look in the matter and save the customer for being
cheating by DISHTV.
They provide only 10 (Ten) chls as HD and charging for more than 45
Chls.
Also i would like to draw your kind attention that, they are charging Rs
560 /pm for 40 + HD and 275 + SD chl.
Till 4th June LIFE OK was the part of SUPER HD Royal pck and suddenly
without offering any other chls , they removed LIFE OK and put this chl
under ala-carte,they neither reduced price of the pack nor offered
others
chl,means keeping same price of the pack the added burden on the
customer
to purchase ala-carte for LIFE OK----One more cheating.
In past also they dis same thing when India was playing in India and
only
NEO was broadcasting Live, they removed the NEO pack from Royal HD pack
w/o
offering for neither price cut nor replacing NEO pack with other.
Sir, pl look in the matter and pl prevent the right of the customer.
Waiting quick response pl.....................

Your dishtv recharge entitles you to a discount voucher fr om GoIBIBO worth Rs. 1500. Voucher details will be sent shortly. TnC" but i did not get voucher details yet for this purpose customer care of dishtv, they informed me that it will be sent very soon but they didnot sent upto date,

this the transaction happens while ordering for online dish tv connection but in between transaction got failed.after then i didn't received back the mony deducted.Please let me know the issue.

My DISHTV complaint number is 88336916, first/old vc no [protected], second/new vc no [protected].
it was a simple request to convert my second connection to multi connection. ideally it should have been on 24 th may12 after completion of the free period of my second connection, but due to reasons unknown it did not happen. few complaints n several phone calls later address verification was completed which was advised to be a must for the said multi connection conversion. I paid the required fee for that on 4th june, i was assured that now my new connection will be converted to multiconnection. i could not believe that today on 7th june12 my new connection was again blocked.. after speaking to CS i was once again assured that myproblem will be resolved within 24hrs. it was strange that within few hrs of registering the complaint i received a sms stating that problem has been resolved.. i again called customer service n had to narrate them the entire story from scratch! i was told to resend my new connection application form n add verification receipt... Somehow i have failed to understand this delay in resolving the above matter and really disappointed in the way it has been handled. akshay trivedi, EMAIL [protected]@yahoo.com

i had purchased dishtv in may 2011. it worked fine till yesterday and today its not working. when i call the customer service they say that the technician will visit my house and i have to pay charges. the warranty was for one year and as soon as the warranty expired the set top box died. this is a scam run by dishtv to take money out of customers. i think this is totally unacceptable. please help me. how do i file a case against dishtv?

We have changed our old Dishtv connection (VC NO [protected]) set top box to HDMI Connection (VC NO [protected]) the connection is in my dads name Rauf Haji .... from Meltek Infosystem pvt ltd midc Kharadi Pune.
Issues -
We paid INR 2915, Meltek employee promised us 3 months free connection and will refund INR 600 to our dishtv account of which more 2 months free i.e total period of five months from 11 may 2012 to 11 Oct 2010 we dont need to recharge our account .
- Now we are getting message to recharge by 23 Jul 2012.
- Also since 28th May there is no transmission relay. Our TV is showing message, NO SIGNAL.
- When contacted the Meltek customer care, calls were forwarded to 12 people without any result, the call duration was 45 mins. They are not answering any query. This is pathetic from DishTV.

Our job card no 15059 at Meltek Infosystem Pvt. Ltd. MIC Kharadi, Pune contact no[protected]/17.

I Rakesh Sharma ( VC No. [protected])have lodged complaint with customercare of DishTV @ [protected] that most of the channels are not available. The executive asked me to explain the details and I checked as per his instructions, and told that out of 15 TP only 3 are giving green indication and rest 12 are red. He said you need allignment ( complaint No. 87448875 dated 21 May'12). He said it is within warranty, no charges to be paid to DishTv representative and within 24 hrs , the reported issue will be resolved.

Mr Sunil from Mobile No. [protected] called me and asked that I will be charged with Rs 200//, I refused since I was told by customer care executive that it will be free of cost. Nobody turned up.

Again I called customer care on 23 May'12 and lodged complaint vide 87586826, told him the above story, he said within 24 hrs, issue will be resolved.

Again I called customercare on 25 May'12 , but to no avail.

28 May'12, I have sent email escalation, no avail.
Today on 29 May'12, I again called customer care, spoken to Ms Roshni, who is senior person, told her whole story. I got a call from Mr Sunil whose contact No is mentioned above, he is again asking for Rs 200//. I refused.

Need your intervention please to relieve me from this harassment.

Best regards,
Rakesh

Sir,
This is to bring in your concern that I Jaspal singh Gandhi, had purchased a Dish TV from your Dealer at Jamshedpur. He told me that today is HD day and company had given offer to new customer of free HD channels for 1 month, I enquired him that what would be the minimum pack that I would recharge of, he replied that I can recharge with minimum RS 180 Pack, so after that i purchased the set top box.
But yesterday I went to recharge with the RS 180 Pack, the Dealer says that Rs 180 pack would not be recharged in my set top box , the minimum recharge would be of RS 375.
This is really a cheating to sell the products, it do not suits the standards of India’s no 1 DTH service provider. Kindly take this matter seriously, and try to resolve the issue, as this is clearly a case of fraud. Waiting for an early and positive reply.

Thanks

Jaspal Singh Gandhi

mai pichale 4 salo se dish tv ka customer hu aur dish tv ka SD connection istemal kar raha hu abhi kuch din pahle maine Plazma tv kharida aur apne set top box to upgrade karne ke lie bola to 3 se 4 din ke baad jab maine pucha to mujhe bataya gaya ki mai HD me upgrade karne ke lie eligible nahi hu fhir maine dish tv ke customer care me mail kia aur dusre hi din mere yaha 04/05/2012 ko HD set top box 1240 Rs. me lag gaya aur bola gaya ki galti se kharab box aa gaya hai kal naya box lagega tab aap ka dish chalu ho payga aur next morning ke bol kar chala gaya lekin vo laur kar dusre din shaam ko aaya aur dusra box laga dia aur kaha gaya ki aaj half n hr. me chalu ho jayga lekin vo 06/05/2012 tak bhi chalu na ho paya mai pure din me jitni baar bhi call karta tha mujhe bola jata tha ki "sir sirf 15 min. do chalu ho jayega lekin pure din nikal gaya 07/05/2012 ko subha maine fhir se ek mail aur call kari to mujhe bola gaya ki aap ka ye box bhi kharab hai naya lagega aur 15 se 20 min. me chalu ho jayega aur fhir se naya box shaam ko 4 pm ko laga kar bola gaya ki abhi chalu ho jayega lekin raat 10 pm tak nahi chalu hua aur mera call uthana bhi band kar dia gaya customer care me bhi kafhi intzaar ke baad meri call connect ki jati hai aur baad me meri baat puri hue bina hai cut kar di jaati hai dish tv ki call me service par sms karne par bhi koi call back nahi aati hai mai to pareshan ho gaya hu

i have received the call from [protected] on 26/4/2012 at 7:30 A.M.He told me that he is calling from Dish tv Singapore and my number is selected for 25 lac prize gave me number [protected] for further details and for collecting the cash.He told me that my coupon number is 1015.But i have doubt on them as the are speaking Hindi from Singapore so i searched about this on net and i find out that this fake call from Pakistan.
Be aware of this type of calls.

I had subscribed on the 18/03/2012 was unable to view the channels of my choice for around 2 weeks even after paying Rs. 110/- to the technicians who installed the DISH at my house. After a couple of days when I realised that I am unable to view the channels I paid for, I called the customer care number.
The first time I spoke to a supervisor named ALI who asked to me write a mail and mentioned that he will lodge a complaint on my behalf. He also promised to investigate the same with the back end team. The second time I called, I spoke with Aniket who informed me that there is no record of my complaint. Aniket offered me a call back the next day which he did not honour. I called again and he said that he will try and help me. However, after few hours he called me back to request me to write in a complaint to their customer service mailbox. I did so and received a response which was not related to my query at all.

So, I took the time to speak to the local DISHTV office (Manik communications) who acknowledged the fact only after I called to check on the same. I was informed that they will mark a mail to get my package activated which was no done.
So I continuously kept following up with the Local DISHTV office who finally activated my services on the 25th of March. However, this was done by deducting my Monthly subscription. I was unaware of this fact until I got a call to renew my subscription on the 5th of April. I again tried speaking with customer care who directed me to the mailbox. I found this completely useless and hence visited the office to sort the issue. I spoke to the technician who confessed that he had not update my payments on my DISHTV account. I collected my receipt and sent it to the customer care mailbox demanding a compensation since the whole issue had caused me a lot of trouble and money to make calls/visit the office.

Surprisingly in response to complaint I received a response which again was not related to my query. I called the customer care again and escalated the issue to senior management. Since then they have either been saying no to my compensation request or just promising me a call back and not honouring the same.

I want DISHTV to apologise for the inconvenience they have caused and compensate me suitably.
