I am D.D.Narasimhan. I am having sun direct connection. First i was having ordinary set box bearing smartcard no. [protected]. Nearly one year back i was changed the HD set box bearing smart card no. [protected]. I am regularly recharging for Rs. 480/- mega pack. To day i was eroneously recharge for Rs. 480/- using smart card no. [protected] instead of [protected]. While contacting your customer care you have wrongly used smart card no and hence we are unable to activate. Now i am again recharging with new number and viewing the channels. In my smart card no.[protected] having balance nearly Rs. 464/-. Kindly transfer the amount to the new smart card No. [protected]. Also i am unable to view Mega TV, Vasanth, Isai aruvi channels. When i am tuning i am getting signal as E-48-32 NO SIGNAL. Kindly restore these channels immediately to view the channels. Thanking you. D.D.NARASIMHAN - [protected]

    On 12/04/15 I have reinstalled the sun direct dish as I have transferred from Chennai to Bangalore. Set top box was changed because it was not working as per the technicians advise. I was able to view the channels from 12th of April 2015 after the installation. From 04/05/2015 on-wards I am not able to see any channels. Many complaints has been given to customer care but till today (20/05/2015) I am not able to view any channels. I have told customer care that I will compliant in consumer court they are not listening and they are taking it easily. I need the problem to be sorted out by the sun direct and validity extension till the service gets resumed. Also the amount which I have paid for making calls to customer call service center which is around Rs.300.00. Best regards, Vijesh

          This is my worst experience with any DTH service ever. I visited Sun direct website and requested for a new HD DTH connection in January 2015. Sun Direct sent one of their distributor agents for fixing the connection at my home. My smart card # is [protected]. I made a 5 month advance payment for South HD package. But HD channels never worked since the very first day(31 Jan). The personnel who came to fix the dish said HD channels would get activated in a day. I waited for many days but HD channels never worked. I lodged multiple complaints with Sun direct customer HD service during the past 3 months. But even as of today, my problem is not rectified and HD channels dont work at my home. My complaint numbers during these 3 months are as follows: SR# 1-[protected](6 Mar), SR#[protected] Mar), SR# 1-[protected](18 Apr), SR# 1-[protected](21 Mar), SR# 1-[protected](25 Apr), SR#1-[protected](8 May). All these complaints remain unresolved as of today. I would have called Sun customer service atleast 25 times in these 3 months. I am fed up and irritated to the core. I got an sms with details of engineer who was supposed to visit me every time I lodged a complaint. It was the same engineer every time. I called up the engineer every single time, but the engineer never visited my place. On few occasions, the engineer had told me that he would visit my home only if I would pay Rs 250. But my connection was well within 3 months warranty period and customer service had always told me that I need not pay any money. When I followed up with customer service everytime, I used ot get a standard reply that the case has been escalated and an engineer would visit me within 24 hours. But it never happened. Sun Direct Hd customer service is ill-trained, pathetic and insensitive to customers. It would be good if government can revoke license of Sun Direct on the basis of not providing minimum expected service to customers. There is a big communication gap between Sun Direct and its distributors. In fact, I found distributors are cheaters and Sun Direct has failed to control its distribution channels. I made a suicidal mistake of paying advance of 5 months and got stuck, else I would have thrown out the sun HD set top box after 1 month. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND NOT TO SUBSCRIBE FOR SUN DIRECT HD DTH TO AVOID GOING THROUGH PAINFUL EXPERIENCES LIKE ME. It is simply not worth it. I heard Tata Sky & Dish TV provide much better customer service.

                          Hi, On April 14th I recharged my Sun direct first time I did for 500 that got recharged. Next time again recharged for 143 that amount debited from my bank but it did not get added to my sun direct account. When I called to the customer care they are asking for the Transaction ID.For my successful recharge 500 also I did not get any transaction ID message from them and for 143 also I did not get anything. But in the bank it's clearly said that it has been credited to Sun Direct. I am having the proof for that. I want my money back. Please help me in this case. Regards, Prem

                                  The smart card No is [protected]. The set up box is not working w.e.f 1.3.15. Therefore complaint was made. There after a person from customer service visited and taken the set up box for repair. The person also charged Rs 350/-as repair charges apart from Rs. 150/- towards service charges. However, the stand by set up box is not working properly. Therefore, I am repeatedly calling customer care for the last 4-5 days. However no action has been taken. I have called even the Nodal Officer also but no action has been taken so far. Kindly resolve my problem Please.

                                    I had recharged my sun direct DTH [protected] with INR 1150 on Thursday, February 12, 2015 7:29 PM. Though the transaction was successful recharge was not done. I had complained to the customer care service DTH and they agreed that the transaction was successful but till now no action has been taken for this issue. Neither the SUN DIRECT DTH was recharged nor got the refund. Please look into this. Order ID : DO[protected] Regards, SONU GOUR

                                      I have been watching Sun Direct channels through Standard Definition Setup box. Recently I have purchased Sun Direct HD set up box. But screen is shrinked after availing HD services.. In spite of so many complaints problem was not solved. Hence I once again shifted to standard definition package. But package is activated to Smart Card pertaining to HD setup box. Still the problem persists. My request to carry over the balance to standard definition set up box from HD setup box was turned down by the Sun Direct staffs.(Both the set up boxes are registered with my name and phone nos.) Whatever complaints I raised the same was closed without resolving the problem.
