Dear Sir,
I am enclosing the Date-Wise Email Copies which I send to tata-sky for resolution of my complaints.
1st Email on 30/08/2016 10:44 AM:
Dear Sir,
Greeting of the Day!!
This is Jatin Gajjar (a Tata Sky Customer since Dec’13). My Subscriber ID is [protected].
I would like to draw your kind attention on the brief history of persisting issue:
Kindly note that undersigned had lodged a complaint regarding problem in Set-Top Box in the month of Jul’16. The complaint number as told to me was “Q3C05QN”. The major concern was poor signal strength even the weather conditions were fair along with delayed response of Set-Top Box (hang / no response for a longer period).
Tata Sky had deputed the service technician almost after 36 hours to attend the call. The service technician wanted to test the existing Set-Top Box at Local Workshop of Tata Sky which undersigned allowed. After almost 48 hours; he replaced the existing Set-Top Box with a new one claiming that the old one was having problem. I asked him that what he had done with my old 'working' Set-Top Box but he was unable to explain. Later upon installation of new Set-Top Box, he claimed that the Signal Receptor (o[censored]mbrella) is also faulty and changed the same by charging Rs. 200/- in cash. On a contrary, Tata Sky had also deducted Rs. 200/- from my subscriber account claiming service charges.
In this whole process; I had encountered a down-time for more than 4 Days. Also I had made several calls on an chargeable line to various service executives of Tata Sky for knowing the resolution status but none of them responded properly or I can say satisfactorily. I would also like to highlight an important fact that Customer Feedback was not taken after attending the call.
The current scenerio is:
Since last 15 days; few channels such as “Star Plus, Sony, Colours, Sab TV, Zee TV, Bindaas etc” are not available on my Set-Top Box however other channels are working fine. I thought that it might be due to rainy season but I noticed similar problem during bright sunny days also which seems suspicious. Considering the past service experience with Tata Sky; I barely collected my emotions and made a call yesterday at around 21:36 hours to Tata Sky Customer Care. The executive took around 24 minutes on phone for registering my complaint. He told me that I had to repay an amount of Rs. 200/- if I want resolution on my long pending issue. I explained him that I had made several non-responded calls even last time along with the fact that Custumer Feedback was not taken yet for the last attended call but rules are rules.
Conclusion:
Dear Sir, I totally buy your point of having the specific set of rules in your organization however I would like to draw your kind attention on the fact that I had also worked with several MNCs such as Hindalco, Reliance etc. having their own set of rules & policies but the utmost policy is “Customer Satisfaction”.
I feel sad to say that Tata Sky (being a preferred choice) had not performed to the desired satisfaction level. I can switch to other networks also but that is not the solution to my problem. That can be the last step of ego satisfaction. My intentions of writing such a lengthy mail is not to waste your precious time but to get a concrete solution.
I may be harsh in my conclusion but It seems like that only. If Tata Sky can re-demand for their service changes for an unattended problem; I am also having the right to ask for compensation regarding the trouble I faced due to poor services / no services; delay in attending the issues; for the ‘N’ number of calls I had made to your customer care on that chargeable line etc. Definitely how could somebody took almost 24 minutes in just registering a complaint when same can be done in an span of 5-10 minutes.
I am very specific on my problem which I am re-writing for your ready references and wants a specific solution.
“You are requested to kindly resolve the persisting issue of poor signal strengths, no signals on specific channels, delayed response of Set-Top Box etc. Please note that I have already informed your customer care executive that I am not in agreement to re-pay the service deployment charges of Rs. 200/- for the problem which is remaining unresolved for more than a month”.
Awaiting your positive response on the subject.
Yours sincerely,
Jatin Gajjar (Subscriber ID: [protected])

Dear Mr. Prasanna Kumar Singh (Nodal Officer),
With reference to the trailing mail; I thanked Tata Sky for immediate deputation of your service technician at my residence in Maihar.
After detailed analysis of the problem; now he came up with a new solution i.e. replacement of existing cable as same is having a joint. According to him; this joint is the reason of poor signal transmission (for few channels only). I told him to replace the cable if that solves the problem. But with a ritual of delayed response / services; he has not reported yet since yesterday.
I called on [protected] (helpline number) to report the incident to you but some lady (Ms. Naasnin) didn't permitted.
Dear Mr. Singh, undersigned request you to clarify following doubts:
1. Is it possible that with the joint in existing cable; the transmission of few channels may get affected.
2. What may be the probable cause of poor signal after successful operation of same cable since Jul'16.
3. Why this problem was not attended during the last complaint in Jul'16?
4. There may be the chances that the replacement of Set-Top Box and Signal Receptor could be a reason for this problem.
5. Can Tata Sky commits a warranty after this replacement i.e. similar problems may not arise atleast for a year.
6. And the most important: "Who will bear the replacement cost for these components??"
My concern is only that it seems like a fashion of sucking the customer day by day without providing any concrete solution. During last complaint; I was charged a sum of Rs. 400/- for the problem which was not at all concerned with undersigned. The Set-Top Box was working, the Signal Receptor was working; then on what grounds those components were replaced?
Awaiting your positive response on the subject.
Yours sincerely,
Jatin Gajjar (Subscriber ID: [protected])

Dear Mr. Prasanna Kumar Singh / Arvind Gupta (Nodal Officer, Tata Sky),
With reference to the trailing mail from undersigned; kindly note that Tata Sky has deputed their service technician today for replacement of faulty cable for which Rs. 1000/- was charged in cash. You are requested to kindly submit the Invoice Copy mentioning the details of replacement so that the Customer shall also be aware of Cable Prices as charged by Tata Sky w.r.t the market rates.
Also explain the reason for Non-Return of my old Cable. As I remember, it belongs to me. You are requested to kindly return the cable else the compensation for old cable. Please make a note that this is not a free replacement. During my last complaint of Jul'16; the Signal Receptor was replaced by Tata Sky and the old faulty Receptor was provided to me.
Your response to my old queries as per trailing mail is still awaited.
Kindly note that no response to this mail shall be treated as an dishonor of customer's complaint and suitable action shall be taken accordingly.
Thanks & Regards,
JATIN KUMAR GAJJAR (जतिन कुमार गज्जर)
