At the outset, the fact that picture quality received is good is unquestionable. However, both are business minded and deceive the general public in a diplomatic manner. TataSky started operations by giving more than 300 channels for a Jumbo Package. Included in the above was an Educational Channel
For this, the customers had to buy their digicomp and pay in advance for the dish which was subsequently installed by their technicians. After about an year and a half of operations, they started introducing innovative packages. They reduced the channels and stated that they have reduced the package charges and that the customer need not pay for channels they need not require.In the process they have introduced pay channels. Dish TV is advertising in a large scale in various programs.
There is no guarantee to the fact that they will continue to provide the services as initially they are promising. They will also be following the same principles as TataSky, a later stage. For the time being they are also introducing innovative marketing techniques to popularize the product. Both the providers are deceiving the public in our country. Some stringent law has to be enforced to desist these activities. TataSky has definitely taken the customers for a ride by reducing the view channels and making them as pay channels in the garb of reducing prices.
Now the latest craze is that they are saying that customers can opt for pause and rewind live programs. For this the existing customers can exchange the digicomp for their new set-up. The art of deceiving is very common in our country. Channels operated by these persons after acquiring good educational background is now slowly increasing.
It is time to wake up and do something to these unscrupulous operators who deceive the public. Certainly I would say that these operators are fly-by-night operators. A day will come when they will suspend the operations through satellite services and no responsible person will receive the calls from public regarding the services. Steps should be taken to desist these persons to continue operations and refund the money taken for unfulfilled promises.
In short, I would say that the free channels presently provided are just for attracting the common masses and the target is on the uneducated and rural masses for the promotion and sales of their products.
As such, one should be cautious of these unreliable service providers. Summing up, both fall in the same category and one cannot classify which is better.
