Well that's unacceptable. What if I don't want to continue with airtel because of this trai rule. Let's say I'm planning to switch to cable or other operator since airtel doesn't carry all channels. So either they have to continue ARP or refund the money back into bank account.
Clear violation! Complain to TRAI. Everywhere their representatives have said Long Duration packs can continue. They also have a TRAI awareness video where in it's made clear. Hope people are smart enough and do what's right. Unless subscriber asks themselves to migrate to newer packs they can't be forced.
Refund in bank account is impossible. Use all the money and then shift to other DTH/Cable
Then I won't allow to change my pack. I'll raise it to trai if they do this to me.
That's what the motive of ADTV and TATA SKY has been in the last one week to offer ARP packages so that the customer be stuck with them due to pending balance. No choice for us
Look bro when people face issues with BSNL broadband when they complain to their own customer serivce nothing happens. Then they directly contact the higher authority to get it solved and it usually gets done faster that way. Here TRAI keeps telling you that ARP/LDP can be continued yet you seem to have given up just because the nodal officer says so. Is this how easily you bow down to them? Atleast try fighting?
Bro I will tweet to TRAI and write an email to them. What more I can do after it?? Honestly speaking I don't trust TRAI to take action
Then What about Newly Announced ARP with new price Quote?
Airtel cheap tricks to lock customers and stay with their services till money is over.
