Folks who have bought this, do you think it is good? I was planning to go for the Samsung 4 series 32' when I learnt that the 80 FR is available for 500 bucks more than the Samsung one, at 34200 [Chennai]. Is it worth the bucks? I am aware of Samsung, but LG?

I completely agree with this. I experienced the same problem during the match and the customer care blamed it on the channel even when I told them that my neighbours who had cable were able to watch without any interruption. Tata Sky simple sucks.

Not a surprise considering Tata Sky are veterans at cheating people. They advertise cheap and charge a bomb. I pity you. This is just the beginning. I have been a long timer with Tata Sky having been suffering their pathetic stuff for 2.5 years now. I am not able to change as the initial investment ...on the dumb STB and installation was just too high.Read More

It is not just about rains, it is about the product as a whole. Reducing channels in the name of providing more 'cost-effective' solutions is rubbish. Also, not having even basic channels is not the greatest thing in the world. Recently when due to the rains my set top box stopped working, they said... rain water had seeped in through the cable and into the STB, and hence it was not able to function. They took 2 days to replace it. And no mention whatsoever of a refund for those 2 days.Read More

Tata Sky is just rubbish. Costly, very few channels, ever changing (and increasing) cost structure, pricey technicians, pricey customer care calls - they don't even have a toll free number, pricey packages, its all about the money. And what does one get in return? A nice blue screen with the message...: 'This set top box is not able to receive a signal'. hahaha... Biggest fraud from Tata. No wonder they are paying for their bad deeds for this with the Nano.Read More

To all those who think Tata Sky was the first to bring DVR technology, I would like to remind that Dish TV brought this technology more than 2 years back. It is another thing that due to lack of promotion, the product was a disaster, inspite of being priced at just Rs.6000/-. Compare that to what Ta...ta Sky with its pathetic reception quality charges - Rs.10,000 including installation. They are easily the worst provider in the market considering that they not only have a bad product, they also charge a premium for it.Read More

newgen_rockstar: I have had so many such bad days with Tata Sky, and have no option to switch since I paid a hefty entry fee (Rs.4000/-) when it was launched 2 years back.

bioenable, I am not sure you are aware that Dish TV had brought out a DVR more than 2 years back. It was another thing that they didn't give too much attention to advertising, and had to stop the product due to lack of demand. The product was in those days priced at Rs. 6000/-, way less than what Ta...ta Sky has been cheating people with.Read More

I echo your sentiments. I too took the connection 2 years back and have been facing problems like these - especially regarding their fees and costs. I once had issues with the remote not working, they sent a dumbo [they called him the service executive], who could speak nothing apart from Tamil - wh...ich I do not know - and kept scratching his head. The remote he had brought along was also not working, only later did he realise that there were no batteries in it :) And then, it was abigger task making him understand that our remote was not working in spite of changing to new battery. While he kept calling the center, we realised that we probably need to change both the batteries - we had changed only one. We did that, and the remote started working. The 'executive' was extremely pleased - going by the expression on his face. The next day I am charged a cool Rs.300/-. For what? The 'visit'. WTF.Read More

I have a couple of friends who have Dish TV, and they vouch for its lack of issues. However, I made the grave mistake of going against what they were saying, and took Tata Sky. I am repenting to this date. Even a couple of days back while my TV lay dead since there was rain, my friends were busy giv...ing me updates from their Dish TV connection.Read More

Stay away from Tata Sky. I have been using Tata Sky since October 2006, and my experience has only kept worsening. Only reason I have not yet changed this is the high entry cost that I had paid (Rs. 4000/-).

I have been a long time user of Tata Sky - since Oct, 2006. Initially, I was quite impressed with the way the whole installation process was carried out extremely professionally. However, that apart, the whole experience has been terrible. Number of channels has gone down from the time I took th...Read more
