This looks a good deal. But i value C Music in Peo a lot as it is a real classicalmusic channel
Peo deal these days have four HBO channels free and Time shift TV. Looks not a match for it.
City Hits | 1 Year
Is there any word that UTV World Movies will be added to the previous Rs.1600/- premium package. Cause it seems all the new channels are going into Rs.2300/- premium package.

BULL SHIT
Deceiving customers at its Max !!
where are the movie channels. what big deal can you pull out without the movie channels ?
Bullshit !
The fact that they can affor to give bloomber to this package shows that all that they have been talking about FTA channels is BS !
AIRTEL HOME PAGE
http://airtel.lk/
@ dialog tv mf & Observer:
100% True. if they cud give at least 2 movie channels with AXN; thats the BIG DEAL.
It's not 'bullshit'. It's an offer. You can take it or leave it. It's pretty good, got all the major sports, education, etc.
It sounds like what you want is the 1949 package for 1000 and that's not going to happen. This is a good offer for Rs. 1000
Airtel Launch in Sri Lanka on December 18
Some good news ! A group of disgruntled customers are looking for the possibility to file a court case agaist DTV. This is mainly for neglecting old CBNSat premuim customers. Chances are pretty good as it looks now.
Indi,
Tell you what is "bullshit" DTV promising to upgrade to MPEG-4 from October and not doing it. In essence it's cheating customers by giving a product that's below quality with problems like pixelation
Guys... no need to worry about Indi, he is no 1 culprit… he doesn’t no anything about Dialog. As per 1 of my friend, idiot joint Dialog recently & showing his bloody **** See his foto….dum idiot.
Ado Indi: is this the way you reply to customers threads... Because of you people only DTV is loosing the customers.
I'd go for this package surely, if it include "TEN Sports"... I don't care much about movie channels as long as it has all the major sports channels..... I think this is a great move by DTV as there are lot of people out there like Sports, News and Infortainment channels rather than movie channels..DTV if u r reading this pls add ten sports to this package (Big Deal) coz it's one of the best channels for cricket and wrestling... I think the set plans offered earlier was quite a rip off compared to this package...
Guys,
This Looks like a carefully studied cost custting exercise. People who know about channels say most of the channels are FTA and no per customer charge. One guy told that other channels are where DTV does not have the number of customers (Minimum) (hence no additional cost). Good if customers are benefited.

ANY BODY WANT TO SEE THESE CH MUST GET SET PLANS ACTIVATED,SO BY DOING THAT THE RENTAL WILL BE MORE THAN AS IT IS FOR PREVIOUS GREAT OR SUPER PKGS. NEW CUSTOMERS MIGHT BE OKAY WITH THIS DEAL. NO TEN SPORTS EITHER IF YOU NEED FULL SPORTS PKG. RETHINK BIG DEAL OR SET PLANS DTV .

sory for the inco'ce.
@ sattvmania:
According to my knw'ldge Big deal is very good for 700Pkg & 1395Pkg users.
Yes Big Deal is a very good and we cannot expect all the channels from it.
What is the code that appears on the screen in some channels?
Dialog TV Hotline (0777679679) NOT answering for a WHOLE week now!!?? the customer service people at dialog centers can't access their systems !!! Is there a strike/industrial action or something goin on !!??
I too had to wait for more than 15 mins on DTV hotline.... And who is paying my phone bill??
There are things which we can get done only through call centre. Point less in walking in to outlets as they wanted us to switch on the decorder. Reset the decorder, Factory reset the decorder. Which we cannot do in an outlet. So the Call Center should help us to do so.... If they dont answer !!!!???
They may be getting lot of calls... But if that the case they should increase the man power, not forgetting they shoud come up with HELP FULL man power :)
DTV hotline is going to wild comparing to GSM call centre!!
If any of you experiecned a quality drop after the mpeg4 decoder setup, the culprit may be your old CBNSat LNB. When I first got the mpeg4 decoder I could see a sharp drop in visual quality. This is despite the singnal strength and quality level ( the numbers) remaining the same.
However later on DTV replaced the LNB and visual picture quality improved drastically. Even a technical guy there at DTV mentioned that the old CBN LNB might be incompatible with the new MPEG4 decoder.
Dialog CC is working fine at the moment,got some chls blocked today for no reason even paying rental early. Tried CC several times but didn't wait for more than a few minutes and last time got a person soon enough.I AGREE BIG DEAL IS GOOD FOR NEW CUSTOMERS BETTER GET IT SOON IF YOU ARE NEW AND 700 OR 1395 PKG HOLDER. BUT PLEASE DTV DO SOMETHING TO EXISTING SET PLANS 14 ,15 AND PUT STAR WORLD /STAR PLUS OR STAR MOVIES TO A ANOTHER SET PLAN.
Discovery always getting stuck for about 1-2 seconds.
DTV got to work out on these issues
@Nokia & @sattvmania ... following on from your comments ....
I'm still out of luck, one week now since i lost all my channels !!! CC wasnt answering as of yesterday (dint try today, fed up), I even paid a bill which was not due yet, still nothing!!
I think the problem is financial and not technical, the TV and Broadband are making big losses, mayb they just cant afford to give good service any more
http://www.lankabusinessonline.com/fullstory.php?nid=233160788
... dialog telekom is a public company, which means they will have to dump TV and Broadband or risk further drop in share price ... so they will have to sell off TV and possibly Broadband ... Where does that leave the customers ??!!!
@ PissedOFF:
Yesterday i tried & get connected to the hotline without any issues. (in the morning). better u try in the morning. better luk dude.
@pissedoff
don't give up mate, why you paid for reliable service.TRY SEVERAL TIMES AND HANG UP AFTER I MIN IF YOU DON'T GET ANYBODY . BEST TRY AFTER 9AM AND AFTER 2PM, LET 5 T0 15 MIN PASS AFTER EACH CALL.GOOD LUCK.
Okey, what's the deal here? I upgraded my package from 1610/- to 2200/- so that I get new channe;s added. What did I get?
- Advert infested UTV World
- UTV Hindi crap
- Bloomberg FTA channel
- Baby TV
Well, Baby TV is far better than most of the rest as there are no adverts.
Hey great "people of the year" at DTV, how about adding value to the customers (simple theory in management!)?

@ ILHAM - The Boss:
@ ILHAM - The Boss:
Is this the hidden secret that you always against to Dialog TV or demote Dialog TV stuffs??? Tks anyway...:)
Well the reason those dumb heads at dialog arn't putting on any movie channels is simply becuz they will have to give out many additional mpeg4 decoders to those who need the movie channels which are kinda going on mpeg4 sooner or later. thats why thats given to the higher packages , idiots should have given a future proof box like IPTV even at the beginning , now again Im not sure whether this mpeg4 box is even HD ready. This is what happens when there is no proper planing and excessive cost cutting which turns out to be short-term and much costlier on the long run.
999 package would definitely require two set plans to get Tensports ( to get Sri Lanka Cricket) and Movies. Its good planning.....
@ ILHAM - The Boss
In case you didnt know & as pointed out by a fellow blogger in an earlier thread - out of the following:
Big TV DTH Service,
TATA Sky DTH Service
Dish TV DTH Service
Sun Direct DTH Service
ONLY DISH TV has authorized agents in Sri Lanka.
Do i need to say more ?
Disadvantage of Indian satellite providers.
• No/Less Asian Feed channels (such as HBO & AXN)
• Less English channels
• Too many unwanted language channels
• Service is not guaranteed (for Sri Lankans)
I am not demot'ing anyone or any products, just telling the fact.
Sri Lankan providers are so far better than Indians.
Go for Dialog TV | LBN | PEO TV
@ Lanka info
True!!!!!
Atleast we can contact CC agent of local providers and what about indian providers? If the channels are scrambled will our ILHAM - The Boss unscramble those?
Remember he is one of the service providers of those DTH Remember he has mentioned "Call us Now".
So call ILHAM - The Boss who promote other DTH products in Dialog TV Blog. He might be a paid person from so called "SAT VISION"
Thank you Lanka Info. And others FYI to identify these people...
Again tomorrow he might come up with another user name promoting the same products.....
Dont buy anything which you dont have a local agent, contact centre or an outlet in Sri Lanka. If there is a problem who is going to fix it. Will they come to our home to change the decorder? Will they change the LNB if it's faulty?
Some thing to think of...... :) :)
Go For Go Dialog TV | LBN | PEO TV
If Airtel comes we can add Airtel TV as well. Untill they lauch the licenced service in Sri Lanka NO!
Yes, it is difficult if we do not have agent for the service provider.
But, all of you must know that for DISH TV, we have few authorised agents in Sri Lanka.
Any problem, they will come and fix you the problem.
Also note that at DIALOG TV rental, you can buy every year 2 DISH TV connections with 200 channels.
Now, lot of LBN customers are going for DISH TV or SUN DIRECT because of SUN TV.
I have noticed last week along few DISHes are fixed in Colombo 4 & 6 areas for new connections.
Therefore, we should able to select the BEST out of all available service providers. But, the selection will vary from person to person.
For example, PEO TV has NO TAMIL channels but it has few HINDI channels. I can't understand why PEO TV could not give any tamil channels?
seems Sun TV is coming back in other 2 weeks time & its confirm by LBN team.
@ ILHAM
Can you offer a rate for only the (virgin) smartcard (no equipment) for the Indian Pay TV services, I'm thinkin of setting up a linux receiver with a single multi CAM (like Diablo) or multiple CI for some of the fussier cards ... tks

hi
.
After some time, somethings happening in favour?
.
well dont be too expective, this again looks to me a dirty trick from DTV.
.
Since many of the existing package hoders are glued to their existing packages, are they showing a demo of what we have here?
.
As for such marketing, the seasonnel times may be a great summer.
.
Anyway, nice to have, but dont think for longer times,
.
Im using 1400, if they retain these to our package after their promotion, im really impressed.
.
Indeed nice movement, at least for the while.
i am a 1400 pkg Customer! all the channels activated now ! wonder for how long !!!
Though DTV says this is a seasonal offer,I think this is a promotional move by DTV. Just to tempt customers to upgrade their packages.
These four channels are useless. I dont think customers will benifit anyway by upgrading to new package.
One channell is a hindi move channel, other one is moview channel with sub titles, and baby tv only good for babies and Bloomberg for the business people.
So there is no real value for the money if you upgarde. DTV should carefully select channels to include their channles line up for them to be more attractive.
For the time being present old 1400/- package is thousnd time better.
Mage channel line up eke UTV,UTV World, baby tv & eke naha .what can i do
Hey Rukmal,
What is your location dude???? I don't see SRI 05 or SRI 05 (3G) is my Mobile when i Scan for networks.. I am living in the heart of Kalutara...
