This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Service not available since 15th February 2007. Repeated complaints (spending hundreds of Rupees on STD calls) to their call centre has yielded no results. 6 emails sent to them have gone unanswered. What a poor service!

Tata sky is not providing Mecca madina 24x7 channel, while it is provided in other providers like Airtel
Will some senior management in Tata sky make note of this and address this issue by providing this channel?
I have also requested this to the call centre

Hi Tata Sky Team, I
would like to request you add the channels of PEACE and QTV which are
the holy channels to Muslims. Not only Muslims these channels are
interested by hindus as well because PEACE and QTV is to establish a
peace (aman) in society and so many of good things they are passing to a
common man for build his trust on God. I strongly feel these channels
really help to hindus also because like these holy channels of God create a better society.God is only one you might call him Allah
or Bhagwaan.
We are missing these PEACE and QTV especially in Ramdaan every
year where so many of special prayer programs offering by those
channels. Honestly these channels we are
truly missing which use to give relief to every heart of human kind
regardless of whatever his religion and caste in this mechanical life
moreover where we became machines.
Tata sky is one of the india's No.1 Broad casting channel
but if you see whichever package of offerings you wouldnt find these two
channels (PEACE and QTV). This is the voice of other Tata sky customers
also who really wants to express.
All unwanted channel likes Fashion TV is broadcasting but not these both channels. As i am one of your Tata sky customer, last but not the least
wants to request you include PEACE and QTV in your network hence to
convey humanity to every individual for the cause these channels have
been build.
Good things should be always appreciate and encourage and I hope you team can encourage it. Awaiting to listen back from you..Thanks and Regards Ghouse khan.

Please be advise to note that I have not been able to watch any of the channels since 15 August let alone been able to watch any sports channels. I first complained about it on 16 Aug and after a week or so some one came check the Satellite Disk and found that Setup box was faulty. He assured it would be replaced next day but nothing happened. Then he said setup box was out of stock so I will have to wait. Finally, I got the call on or about 2nd or 3rd that setup box has arrived, but I was in Delhi that time. I asked your service Rep to come on 5th Sept but no one came. I called on 6th Sept and time for 3pm was fixed by SMS but no one came. So I called at 4pm and I was told that he would come at 4pm again no one came so I called again than I was told that problems will be resolved within next 2 hours, but it was not. I called again and I was told that it would be resolved next day, i.e., on 7th Sept. Since morning I called ate least6 times but received no satisfactory answer let alone resolution my complaint. Now my account has been deactivated although a balance of Rs107 show on it.

In view of very poor quality of services and my inability to watch the TV I cannot continue to pay fro activation. Rather you should give me credit and compensation for the last 3 weeks as no services were provided and no new setup box was installed.. In fact, I am extremely disappointed by the poor quality of service and provide me a copy of your complaint procedure so that I could report to appropriate agency for necessary action and also expose to media..

I am looking forward to hearing from you ASAP.

Yours sincerely,

Tata sky is pathetic... they dont have a customer care! instead they have customer careless... and full of brainless fellows known as engineers. TATA was a brand earlier now it is the most disturbing name when heard... 99 of 100 people have weird experience with them... i have dealt with almost each of their service right from indicom to sky but all are worst... specially the mulund outlet... this place just has bunch of fools sitting there, they make fun during their duty hours speak bad words? during work hours, is this an example TATA is setting up for the service standards? i had a problem using photon on my MAC... i visited the shop and i had to teach them what drivers are supported by MAC and they were just watching... huh.. this is ridiculous service and now i have again burnt my hands registring for tata sky these are the biggest examples of the biggest fool service executives on this planet... TATA its high time you check your services standards, i now understand why Vodafone is a winner, inspite of having such high rated plans - Its only service my dear tycoon... its not only money what you earn but its the kind of service you need to provide... take this in account if you need to be a market leader, i think your current standards shows you are the biggest losers.

I am subscribing to Tata sky multiroom package for past several years. I had later upgraded my primary connectionj to a Tata sky plus. Each year, during the summer months one of the connection starts giving distorted images. The technician comes and changes the defective cable. He charges for his visit and the cable. Why do Tata sky people install cables which cannot withstand the Indian summer heat? Why should I pay each year for changing defective cables. On calling the helpline I was curtly advised to disconnect the defective connection and take one from another provider (Airtel). Is this how Tata sky treats its old customers? Shame on them!

Even i feel Tatasky customer service sucks. First of all they dont understand the customer's query and they go on their own track. Second, they speak Hindi even if the call is from chennai. Third, they dont speak or understand English. The call centre executives use phrases like "I dont want to argue with you" when we shell out our hard earned money. When we corner them with questions they deny to take ownership and disconnect the call. I totally regret for being their customer and i strongly recommend not to go for tata sky. I do not know much about others service but definetely not tatsky.

TATA SKY IS NOT PROVIDING ANY ISLAMIC CHANNEL WHILE AS MORE THAN FOUR HINDU CHANNELS R BEING SHOWN FROM THE BEGINING:ASTHA, SANSKAR ETC ETC..IT IS GOOD BUT THEY SHOULD RESPECT ALL COMMUNITIES OF INDIA.IT IS DISCREMINATION THEY SHOULD ATLEAST SHOW ONE CHANNEL FOR MUSLIM VIEWERS: "SAUDITV" IS THE CHANNEL WHICH BROADCASTS LIVE PRAYERS FROM GRAND MASJID IN MAKKAH AND MADINAH.IT IS SAUDI ARABIAS NATIONSL CHANNEL.VIEWERS R BEING REQUESTING FOR IT FROM YEARS.BUT TATASKY IS COMMUNAL SERVICE.THEY R TERRORIST MINDED THEY THINK THAT IF THEY PROVIDE SUCH CHANNEL IT WILL BE AGAINST THERE COMMUNAL EGO...ISN'T IT COMMUNALISM THAT THEY R PROVIDING MORE THAN FOUR HINDU CHANNELS AND NOT EVEN ONE MUSLIM CHANNEL.
WE ALL SHOULD COME FORWARD AND COMPLAIN AGAINST THE SERVICE IN COURT.WE SHOULD DEMAND HEAVY COMPENSATION AND BAN ON TATA COMPANY BECAUSE THEY ARE COMMUNALISING INDIA.

You haven't written anything about what problem you had or from where did you call and to whom did you write. Your complaint is very vague. How do you expect customer services people to help you with this? Just call CC and give them they specifics. They will sort out the issue. Tata Sky is know for its very good customer service.

Hello Sir,

I am one of your customer having customer ID [protected].

My complaint is that from the last two weeks the channels having number 103, 105, 109, 111, 113, 115 & 117 are not coming properly to us as their is disturbance in picture quality and may times their is no sound, sometimes image gets blurred. This is a thechnical problem in your network as rest of the channels in our TV are running fine.

Hoping for the positive response from your side.

Thanks,
Suresh Chand

This is Deepak Suri, I am one of your extremely perturbed customer(Subscriber ID [protected]). I got relocated to Hyderabad from Faridabad. Your engineer came in my absence and installed cables and antenna. My wife could not find set up box and your engineer (Ram Kumar)went away saying that you can make connections yourself and for any problem he can come again. After that we made connections and did not get signals. Your engineer never bothered to take our call. He promised twice to come but never turned up. I have been in touch with your customer care team also, they make promises everytime but nobody has come tiil date.

My last complaint was lodged on last Saturday(8th Nov) Ref-1-[protected]. After that on daily basis I have been talking to your people, every day I am promised that some one will come, today till 13th Nov. nothing has happened.

I had great regards for Tatas, your company is doing irrepairable damage to the name of such a wonderful company. Can you expect people like me to ever speak good about Tatasky. With this kind of services you should rather concentrate on whatever base of customers you have, rather than asking your existing cutomers to give references.

Why to waste your time & money in E-mails & telephone calls any more? You have already waisted your money by purchasing Tata Sky. They will never reply your mail. They will never register your complaint in warranty period. They always try to stretch your complaint till warranty expiry. Only solution: Just throw it away, forget what has happened & get some other alternative. I think, one time pain is better than permanent tension.

I am one of those unfortunate customers drawn in by the weight of the name "tata" in tatasky. The customer care is a sick joke and their personnel who attend to our phone calls have absolutely no sense of the the DTH technology. The company changes package quite often and south Indian customers get a raw deal. They pester us with their mails and the digital fingerprint number flashes damn in the middle of the screen too often. I feel quite cheated and want to get out as early as possible from the grips of these cheaters.
