          I have recharged through sundirect app. Amount got debited from my account and credited to sundirect account. When I call the customercare they dont even bother about it and simply saying you have not recharged. I have provided transaction code also. Customercare people simply open some complaints and send false messages that your complaint has been resolved without resolving anything and they are showing rude behaviour through call. They have chance to check my transaction with the transaction ID i have provided however they are simply saying i haven't recharged without even checking it.

            I have been notified by Sun direct to recharge my package. I also recharged my package but a scrolled message got permanently embedded on my picture stating that " Your sun direct expires in 3 days, recharge with tamil DPO so and soo..." this scrolled message appears in all channels for the past more than 2 weeks after my recharge. Picture in all channel appears but I cant make the scroll message to disappear.

            I had given lot of complaints to Sun direct but none of them are responding properly or resolving my issue some even declining or cutting my phone call while I am still in call discussing about my complaint. This type of service which they give make me feel so bad. None of them took my complaint seriously and resolved it. Thus I am seeking this platform.

                              Transfer/refund recharge made to inactive smartcard

                              I have mistakenly recharged to my old inactive sun direct dish smart card [protected] which is now inactive. I am using sundirect hd setup box and I supposed to be recharged to my new connection
                              Both connection are under my name and I made recharge to my old inactive connection through FreeCharge 0n 16 Oct 2021recharge amount:1298.
                              Customer care denied transferring my recharge amount to new connection or refunding amount saying they can do only if recharge made through sundirect app(complaint . They confirmed recharge amount 1298 is credited to my old inactive sundirect ID.
                              Isn't it unfair or cheating if amount is credited and sundirect customer care says they can refund if it is only recharged through sundirect app.
                              Please take action and refund or transfer the recharge amount to new connection. And pls have a policy in place to take action if such common mistake (since ID saved in app after first recharge and anyone uses same to recharge again)happens and customer used recharge third party vastly using app like FreeCharge, gpay, phonepay.

                                        Hi I have tried to recharge my sun direct account ([protected]) via Amazon pay, it was marked as pending, tried once again with same results, Since today is the last day of the my subscription i have used Sun direct website and finish my transcation. But now the Amazon customer service says even though the transaction is pending, recharge money is already gone to Sun direct and cant be refunded. So technically i ended paying three times for a single recharge. How could we address this issue?
