I have been using Cable TV service for almost 15+ yrs. Recently, I thought of switching to a DTH TV for more clarity and channels. I browsed through different DTH service sites to check their packages and services. Out of the blue one day, I got call from BSNL that they are providing IPTV Service for its customers known as “MyWay”. This service is available only to BSNL and MTNL broadband customers.
I was happy because it’s free for three months.(You need to pay Rs.50 for first 3 months towards service charge). You only need to deposit Rs.1500(Refundable) against the Set Top Box. If you like the service, you can continue after 3 months. I thought I strike the best deal @ Rs.150 for three months with 200+ channels! Wow. I have to admit that their service is pretty fast in terms of Installation. So I am all set to experience the IPTV MyWay!
Now here comes the real trouble water MyWay, Set Top Box is just a piece of sh*t. Its index screen gets freeze most of time like a Windows Vista L .You need to switch it off and on. I was really upset and annoying with their service on the 2nd day. I even try to call their Call Center, if you have a long vacation and ample amount of time to kill, and then try their number. It took me nearly 30 minutes to catch hold off an Agent. Like any other Govt. service, his reluctant nature pissed me off. I am planning to discontinue their service. I still believe that IPTV is a great technology, but still its in evolution path in India.
