Im the customer of Airtel DTH Customer ID [protected], 2 years back I have upgraded my STB with HD STB , 6 months back I had faced the remote control problem, so I tried to use the switches fixed on STB. To my surprised I have noticed that all the switches provide on the STB are getting stuck inside the STB, as the design of the STB is faulty means manufacturing defect. Now the company is not ready to accept the fault. Yesterday ie on 11.07.2013 I was asked to pay Rs. 350/- as an service charge for replacement of faulty STB free of cost . But when I recd the STB I noticed that the STB which is given as an replacement is a secondhand and repaired one. So i refused to accept as why for the fault of company I should take the defective/ repaired STB. Now, the persons with whom I was coordinating has refused to give me replacement. I would like to bring to your notice as how the customers are cheated by such a big companies. Also I would like to inform you- all the set top boxes which are supplied to the customers across the India must 100% facing the same problems., but no one has noticed the same. I would like to request you take immediate action against such company and help the citizens of India from such a cheating and get me the replcement of my STB with fresh one. The government of India is promoting the campaign for installation of STB all over the India, should also listen to the peoples and help them in getting the problems solved.
This followup is being done by me for the last 6 months, but company is firm on its decession.
I would like to request all the Airtel DTH users to check their set top switches working or not, if not then every one should ask for replacement of the same. It is a right of customer.
