Posted: 24 Nov 2010 01:19 PM PST

ebay won't be recommended for such a expensive phone.
and when you are going to use in another country it can be a nightmare.

reliance Big TV logo needs to undergo changes

Posted: 24 Nov 2010 11:12 AM PST

I understand that in the first place the logo is not supposed to be displayed for the pay channels. I guess this is the norm in other countries.


BIG TV STB does not power up

Posted: 24 Nov 2010 11:09 AM PST

The issue was identified within minutes of the service person landing at my place. He replaced the power adapter. I was charged Rs 300 for this. However all this took 5 days(including one public holiday) to get resolved. In other words, 5 days of my subscription lost. What was pathetic is that the CC promised that the issue will be solved within 48 hours and the Technical department put me on hold indefinitely. All they have to say is "I understand your problem. The issue is escalated. It will be solved ASAP". That was quite irritating when they keep repeating it. When asked for a commitment date, they did not have an answer.

In this process, I learnt that BIG TV charges Rs 175 for the service person to make a visit to your place for a complaint. If the STB had to be replaced, then Rs 500 is charged. If you want to switch to the HD STB, you get Rs 500 off on Rs 4490 when you return your old STB.

I was one of the early birds for BIG TV. This post is to share my experience. It is upto BIG TV to check how their CC and Technical dept care for customers, rather than being sorry to me.


Using Teracom (Linktop / LW273) datacard with Ubuntu!

Thanks Rahul,

The output is identical to LW273. So my method should work with LW272 also. Please follow the bug report here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ta/+bug/673459)

Thanks

BSNL 3g PPP link control protocol was terminated ?

After 7 days of free usage, people forget to recharge and then they get this error.
So go out after 7 days and shell 4200 out of your pocket for non-stop service.

Tatasky Increasing Rates? :(

Posted: 24 Nov 2010 09:43 AM PST

^^^^
Looks like u have been recently stung by Tata Sky's service.......i havent used it anytime, but all i can say is, just on comparison of it with other providers, i found it too costly. I mean if u want more channels, u have to shell out anything between 5.5-6k pa......
So i have taken d2h - 3.2k pa - with its highest Diamond pack.....The only negative i saw in Dish TV was the Neo Channels' issue - was not there when i analysed, and have heard that it has been added as a package now, with premium rates......
