I bought a Sun DTH connection (Smart card #[protected] in the name Manoharan) on April'10. The chose Sun DTH because of the brand image which i'm regretting now. Such is theri appalling service. In the mid of May, there was cyclone in TN which badly affected my dth connection. DTh services stopped working completly after 3 days. I kept calling people after people, CC and their distributor (Vidiyal Communications). I even took leave twice since i was promised that someone is going to be sent. But no one never turned up, Finally, i paid 300 rs and called another distributor (Kalki Channel Visions Selaiyur) to fix the problem. The technician found that the dish has turned which was the reason for no reception. This is what i've been telling them but no one turned up. trust me, the service wasn't working for 36 days.
Now again, after their recent satellite movement, half the channels has stopped working. I've been calling my distributor (Vidiyal Communications[protected] and its head Jai Shankar [protected] for the past 2 weeks since 15/10 still no has turned up. Everytime they used to say that they are going to send someone but no one has ever come here.
I've logged complaint to Sun DTh Nodal office krishnan KV but to no avail. No one has even acknowledged my complaint. I've been dealing with multiple brands (Airtel for BB, Aircel for mobile) but have never come across such a pathetic, rude service which never turn up even after repeated requests. With Diwali nearing, i'm left with hardly 5 channels to watch when i've paid for south, movie, sports and news packages totalling to 2100 rs for 9 months. hardly this service would have worked for 3months since i've bought it.
I'm filing this complaint here not because i want someone to take action (which i know will never happen) but to make people aware of their service. Just don't go by the ads tan tana tan. DON'T EVER BUY A SUN DTH SERVICE - this is not an one-off incident but i knew many who has had the same problems.
I've decided to sell this dish and set top box and moving back to normal cable. Atleast there, we pay only after getting the service.
