Bharti Airtel DTH service
Airtel DTH : After Tata sky, Dish tv, sun direct dth, DD direct plus and Big tv from Reliance we now have Airte DTH which will be available from tommoros onwards that is 9th of October 2008. Bharti Airtel dth is the second one to launch this year first one being Big tv which was launched a few months ago.
According to a lot of forum members the problems with Big tv is that they still do not have a good customer support infrastructure as oppose to tata sky and dish tv who are very prompt in attending to consumer complaints.
Airtel DTH claims that their dish is about 20% larger then that provided by tata sky and dish tv which will help a lot in keepin their service running when it rains heavily. Tata sky and dish tv and all others are known to loose connection in heavy rains or even heavy clouds but if Airtels claims are to be believed their service will not come to a halt during heavy rains which obviously is very good news as I myself have seen my tata sky go down when it rains heavily here in Delhi.
Airtel DTH has announced that their packages will start from an initial Rs 2499 for North India and in South India from Rs 1499 depending on the language and channels selection. Airtel dth monthly packages are priced from Rs 125 a month to a high or Rs 424. Airtel dth is going to be launched in 62 towns and cities initially and they have already set up 21000 retail outlets which does not include their own Airtel relationship centers where you normally go to pay your airtel mobile bills.
Airtel DTH service does seem to have a brighter future given their massive brand appeal which has over the years only improved be it other companies bad image or Airtels good service but its the gap between the good and the bad which has been increasing. Airtel broadband as you may have already notices is being only made available in certain areas and the company says they are only taking one step at a time so they dont have unsatisfed customers which is a good idea.
Airtel dth is initially offering a total of 175 channels on their dth service which may be increased in future as and when more channels become available.

Iam Suraj from Nepal a student of masscommunication who has passed clas 12.Dishtv came at first then came tata sky and bigtv.When i looked website of bigtv then i find that among the dth service in India Bigtv Dth is worst becuse it is very hard for consumer to select channels in Bigtv.
In Nepal DTH service is banned by law but in villages lots of Dishtv and less tatasky can be seen but in town there are less number of DTH and people hide so that cable operator will not see th DISH antenna.
Pokhara the place where I lives falls the maximum rain in Nepal but there is no disturbance in signal of Dishtv as my cable owners shows zeetv from dishtv and zeenews from tatasky .But tatasky disturbs when rainfalls.
