My sc no. [protected]. Residing in villivakkam. My settop box was recently replaced with a news one in the 1st week of january 2017. Again i received e48 / e52 searching for signal. I had takenup the issue with nearest distributor (Kolathur) for which he wanted to again replace the settop box for rs.650. It is to note that i had replaced the existing one for rs.350. Is there any logic in contiunously paying money to the distributor and replacing the settop box without the mistake of the consumer. Later getting annoyed with this attitude, i placed a complaint over phone with complaint no. Sr[protected]. Still im expecting a positive reply from the technicians. Im helpless. I wish to surrender my connection or else i would be forced to file a legal complaint for the harrassment i had through the distributor.
Regards, jagan

            Hi Team,

            This is Raghavendra from bangalore. Today i recharged my DTH (card no-[protected]) with 1 year pack in sun direct site. I din't received any confirmation sms. The amount was reflecting in my account as balance when in logged in and checked.
            I called customer care from my registered mobile number and the person picked call named Pramod. He spoke to me in kannada only.

            The way he spoke to me was rude. I hope the call will be recorded when a customer calls to the care. Get the data and check it.
            I would like to suggest you people to learn respecting the customers first.

            Regards,
            Raghavendra

              Dear Sir,
              We are not enjoying the Sun Direct DTH channels, I called the customer support reg these inconvenience they replied that network is upgraded old set top boxes are not supporting so the customers who are having the old set top boxes need to buy new set top box to enjoy the channels.
              I am complaining that why should we buy new set top boxes for the services, we are already having the set top boxes in working condition and not asking for new features. So why should we buy the new one, if customers want new features then they will buy, why should all the customers buy new set top box, so many customers are facing this problem.
              kindly requesting resolve the issue and support for better service.

              We are facing the issue of channels visibility, but sun direct management is not responding till now. customer support is telling that old set top boxes exchange with the cost of 750 + 150 service charges. because of their up gradation why should we pay the amount and exchange the set top boxes, they should provide the service.
              so many customers are facing this problem please try resolve the issue.
              My card is expired...due to unusage ...so will you reactivate it...
              From today morning, I have this problem. No picture. No channels. The info channels works fine as usual. But when I go to other channels, what I get is a blank black screen. Whats the problem?..
              I plugged it off and turned on again. The channels works for a few seconds and then freezes/crashes. Why does this happen?

                This is to inform you that few of our HD channels are freezing and Max SD channels are blurr and the quality & strength are fluctuating and they are very less.
                I have made lot of complaints that Iam getting error codes on the display like E48-32 (No Signals) and E52-32 (searching for signals) since many months, they are not resolving the issue and instead they are closing the tickets without resolving it.
                Since one year I am facing it and I don't want to use this sun direct connect anymore because we don't want to see these errors on daily basis instead of paying more and more amount for watching channels.
                Hence ask them resolve the issue permanently or else take back the dish, HD setup box including cable for free of cost and I can get dish TV or Tata sky.

                Please note: Resolve these issues permanently or take my HD setup box, did and even cable with you for free if cost and will opt some other good HD provider networks like Tata sky or dishtv etc.

                    Dear Sir,

                    Sun direct DTH is not working due to their server upgradation from their end. As per them, we need to change out SET BOX for matching their server. We have contact the nearest SUN SHINE store. As per them we need to pay 650/- for new box. We don't know, why we need to pay this amount. It is not our problem. I have already recharged for one year on 25th oct 2016. Our next due date is 25th oct 2017. We have send a mail to Customer care regarding this issue, But not receiving any reply.

                      Sun direct dth is not working since week due to server upgradation from their end. Set box issue js noted.Sun direct must provide new set up box to match their server upgradation. Customers must not face the cost. Recharged with long term validity so it is much of concern for me. They should be replacing this at no cost which is not happening. Problem is many channels are getting frozen frequently. This started from a week before..and still no response from the company. Please take this as this impacted a huge set of people
                      Thanks

                        Today I have received the SMS that complaint resolved as customer not ready to pay service. I have already paid Rs.450 for setupbox replacement. I got the call from Kalaiarasan (Mob.[protected] on 23rd Jan 2017 told me that he will send the service engineer with setupbox. After that neither service engineer came to my home nor any phone call received from sundirect.

                        Today I made 24x7 customer care they told me that resolved SMS send by dealer not sundirect and again they take my complaint no.SR.[protected]. How they can close complaint without resolve the problem that to without customer acceptance. Lot of communication gap between Sundirect and their dealers.

                        Kindly look into this matter how they are behaving with customer.

                          Sun direct dth is not working for a huge set o[censored]sers with a particular type of set top box which was provided by company. They should be replacing this at no cost which is not happening. Problem is many channels are getting frozen frequently. This started from a week before..and still no response from the company. Please take this as this impacted a huge set of people
                          Thanks

                              HI, I AM HIMANSHU from Ahmedabad.

                              I had registered a complain on 7 DEC 2016 OF 118 ERROR FOR STAR PLUS AND STAR GOLD.
                              They told me within 48 HRS their technician will call and visit but today is 20/01/2017
                              but still no call and no visit by their technicians.

                              2)- SECOND THING on 16/01/17 my all channels stopped working so again i complained and their EXECUTIVE MR. NAKUL MAHOTRA noted down my complain and gave me complain id- SR[protected].
                              HE also told me same thing tht their technicians wll call and visit within 48 hrs.

                              3)-But today is 20/01/17 almost 5 days has been passed but still no response from these worst company people.

                              I had talked to their executives MR. NAKUL MALHOTRA; MR PANKAJ SINGH AND TODAY WITH MR RISHI.

                              ALL these are trying to make fool and not giving response properly.

                              So i am requesting to do needful and I am giving Sun direct time of 48 hrs to reply me or else i will go to court with all the proofs.

                              Regards,
                              HIMANSHU SHUKLA.

                                  From last week we have not received so much of channels. So We tried to contact customer care but it is vain/unable to contact.

                                  So I contact your service faculty. He came 5 days before and check the details and told you have to change the setup box to get all the channels. and also told to contact the customer service and put complaint.

                                  For the past 5 days daily I trying to contact the customer service no, but unable to contact. Even I tried to contact by live chat, but it is also waste of time and internet.

                                  So, I can't understand how we contact and convey our problem?

                                    We have a sun direct connection at home in visakhapatnam. Since 2days some unknown person is harrasing my father saying that he recharged our smart card by mistake and asking to pay him the amount in cash. When my father asked him to sort out the issue with sun direct he is telling that he was at their office only and took the contact details form them only using smart card number. When my father asked him to hand over the phone to the office staff they are telling my father to pay the cash and why should we pay the cash for any for which we are not responsible and how come sundirect leak our personal information to any third party? why should my parents face all this nonsense?
                                    As this is a security threat to them can we lodge any legal case against sundirect using all the proofs?

                                      Sun direct DTH is not working since a week and my smart card no is[protected] and set top box no. C[protected].and word pack recharged on 30/07/16 for one year.by paying rs.3100/. When I contacted ur dealer m/s Ganesh electronic at Nagercoil, they said that a new set top box has to come and since ur validity is still up to July17 U have to wait for a long time. So from them I understand that I am penalised for taking one year recharge.
                                      I dont find any justification in this answer. So pl. do the needful immediately.
