HD Access Fee: Way to know counter sd channel in Tata Sky

[shiwesh]

Yea I subscribed to star sports 3 now for Asia cup and I am getting star sports HD 1.

Channel numbers are side by side for these two?

Which means the HD channels not in pair with their sd channel will not apply this technique...

From what believe, if sun sd and sun hd are side by side in terms of channel number, u should get sun hd. If they are not placed side by side then whole sun genre will be required.

Others can confirm if they have seen some other trend. Because otherwise this pairing funda in hd access fee is really confusing.

this confusion is only for ten hd. Other hd channels will come with their corresponding sd channels

No doubt it will be confusing in future. So if tatasky wants to continue with HD access fee then they should provide some kind of mapping(between SD and HD channels) on their website.

Ya but as force posted. Star sports 3 is paired with star sports hd1. I mean those who do not knwo which was originally star cricket sd and hd, how will they find?

No bro if you subscribe to Ten Sports than you will get Ten HD automatically..you no need to subscribe the entire Ten pack to watch Ten HD

Are u sure ? Did u activate this way ?:huh

So my theory only works in limited cases.
One of our friends in ddf subscribed to star sports 1 sd thing to get star sports hd1. But then he did not get. Some clarification from tata sky needed i guess. Some randomness do exist.

Call cc they will drop ss1 and reactivate ss3 for u. One of our member faced this recently

Not getting Star Sports 1 HD even after adding Start Sports 1 Alacarte
