Seeking Help better multi connection (dishtv vs airtel)!!

[rajib022]

I have some doubts about dishtv vs Airtel multi connection.
I am from Kolkata. I am staying at 2 stored house and have Dish TV connection.. I have 2 rental parties. They are asking me TV with dish connection. I have a SD Dish tv box. My STB model no. Zenega- D-4005 iS .
Now I have doubt if that Airtel is merging with Dish TV. Do I go for my Dish TV second & third connection with Dish NXT HD box ? or Shall I get a new connection Airtel DTH? After merging anyhow Dish TV box will be replaced with Airtel box in near 1-2 years?
**Dish TV CC is saying 2nd connection is Rs 1399+ 59 (ncf charge). and I have seen in Airtel website that -Airtel 2nd connection is Rs 793+ Rs 94 (ncf charge) .
**In Amazon Dish TV second connection is available Rs 999 or sometimes Rs 700-800.
So I am confused. Please suggest Do I go keep DishTV for multi connection or go for Airtel multi....

Go for Airtel. Better AQ & PQ, customer support, no lock in period. Also they are rumoured to provide Airtel Thanks benefits to DTH customers. You would be able to access OTT and live TV like on Tata Sky app.

Meanwhile if TV recording isn't an issue. Best provider for now would be Tata Sky.

**is Airtel has daily billing system like Dish tv- deducts balance every midnight ?
**After merger with Dish TV all D2h & Dish customers auto upgrade to Airtel dth and replace with new stb within 1-2 years - is not it so ?

Yes, Airtel and Tata Sky deducts balance at midnight.
Post merger they will stand alone as seperate companies under one banner. You won't get be able to replace or swap connections.
