Hi All,
I escalated this to airtel Black senior desk and they said that they will take this as feedback and forward to their Development team.

I asked them when can i expect a resolution, for that they replied based on priority.

So i request help of all airtel extreme family members to call customer care and raise this feedback so that we get fast solution.

PS: Airtel a la carte lock period is now 30 days
Thank you all for the support.

I have already sent feedback mentioning this and several other points to senior team of Airtel Digital TV around 4 months back. Hopefully in coming months they will take corrective measures on the same to improve overall user experience
 
I have tweeted this to airtel.

I have called up customer care and informed them as well. Not sure how effective it is going to be. But IMO twitter response is better

Add the channel to parental control to un subscribed channels. Pin required to access the particular channel. It will reduce the unnecessary addition of channels.

Go to settings>Device settings>Parental control.
 
this just happened to me today. I am from middle class family. my parents are not that much educated, and they mistakenly added 2 channels and one thing I am sure is that airtel brought this feature only for making more profit.
this is just too risky
 
The same issue happened to me multiple times and i raised complaint multiple times. The airtel is not going to add this feature. Every time i complain they say it's recorded as feedback but not taking action on it. They are using it to steal. Money from customers....
 
Dear Airtel Digital TV Team,

Subject: Concern Regarding Unauthorized Channel Subscription via TV Remote Customer ID: 3060170962-001 and Stop function Of Channel Subscription via TV Remote to My TV SetUp Box

I am writing to express my concern regarding a recent issue I encountered with my Airtel Dish TV subscription. I have noticed that channels can be subscribed to using the TV remote without any consent from the bill payer.

This practice raises significant concerns, as no consent is obtained from the bill payer before these subscriptions are activated. I would like to know if the company considers the use of the TV remote as a valid and authentic method of agreeing to terms and conditions or subscribing to new channels.

The TV remote is primarily intended for operating TV channels and may be used in public settings such as offices, halls, or shops for entertainment purposes. So please sop this function to my setup box. If any TV channel is added to my subscription without my explicit permission through unauthorised means, I will not be held responsible for any related charges.

I request your prompt attention to this matter and would appreciate a clear response regarding your policy on this issue.

The charges would be deducted from your account with or without your consent. I think if the box is not connected to internet, it can be stopped.
Or you can degrade to HD box.
