Recharging Zee Dish TV through ICICI Bank?

I had to recharge dad’s Zee Dish TV connection. Since Zee Dish TV website continues to remain a piece of crap shit… I decided to use their ICICI Bill Pay mechanism.

Now, I have made the payment from my ICICI Bank account. I have no idea what else do I need to do!

Any help?

Called up Zee Dish TV Customer Care. The dude sounded like he was drunk! Anyway, he told me to wait for 10 hours for the update. Pretty darn awesome as usual.

Update: It took 36 hours for me to get the thing sorted out. It took several mails and phone calls to both ICICI and Zee Dish TV customer care to do it!

I kashigowda,having dishtv recharge shop.So i want dealer login id and password

The service quality of Dish TV is horrible. Because of that in Kolkata it has stopped to receive any new customers,rather existing customers like us are looking for alternatives. You should have customer service cell with a telephone no. Reg,

worst online renewal system ive ever seen in my life..i relli dunno wt happens after u click cc payment gateway 1..it ask for "Dear Subscribers! You have entered Invalid Office No. Please enter 11 digit Office No with STD Code"
wat crap is dis..i gave up..i dont have office numbr..i had 2 finally pay thru the IVR..DISH TV U *UCK BIG TIME.go n lick srk *alls

I got DishTV with a Six month free subscription package. Following is the history
1. It took DishTV around a bit over five months to start my set. During the course I complained through various channels (dealers,DishTv support).. The service guy visited a few times did some settings and said that it would be up in few hours.. It never happened.
Finally it was the "original Indian profanities" M***r/B****n(C**d) to the support guy which had the job done.

2. In the above case a card was corrupt.. The service guy replaced it and took an application from me to have the "free subscription" restarted as it was almost elapsed. This never happened. I contacted the dealer and the support but they had no clue of the situation/application. There was no renewal of my free subscription.

3. Since then I have had numerous problems with the recharge with every possible channel. Credit cards, Net banking, ITZcard all showed problems with the whole payment flow at times falling in disarray. No two pages are well linked and we are forced to pay specific amounts using different channels. Every time there was i recharge it required me to plead to the support to start the service.

4. There was an effort to mass sell the Box in my company. I blocked the same by putting notices on Boards and confronted the sales guy. I trampled my SetTop Box under the tires of my car with Dish guys and my company colleagues watching.

5. I once went out on a walk in my society (with rowhouses, no highrises) and noticed that not even a 5% DishTV was installed in the 400 flat strong society.

F**K DishTV

Many of you have complained about losing your money, but let me reaffirm on the fact that the transaction done through ItzCash Card in recharging the Dish TV’s monthly is absolutely safe. To add to the facilities, one can get the ItzCash Card at any of the ItzCash outlets or can also order the card at home which gets delivered within 3 days. Have a look at the website to learn more.

Dear Sir,

I have no idea why you even try again. I read a post every second day on your blog about crappy payment services - oxicash, mchek, etc. I don't think you've ever had a good experience with such a payment service. What amazes me is that you never get tired.

India mein sirf note chalta hai. Baaki sab dikhawa hai.

once you start working and have little time to deal with people on the payment counters, you would realize the benefits of online transactions.

unless of course you have a good reason to pay cash for services than through bank accounts or credit cards.

I know, online banking saves a lot of time, saves the hassle of dealing with an actual person, but you have experienced it first hand that India isn't ready to for online money transactions just as yet.

I would rather ensure the safety of my money instead of ease of payment.

Look at it this way, it is more hassle now, after the payment, you are wasting time adn burning your blood by calling up their CC or sending them repeated emails.

to recharge zee dish tv using cash i would have to find some shop selling some recharging cards.

then i would need to punch in those numbers to some telephone system or sms it to zee dish tv.

basically, it's not cable tv that i can yell at some guy to come to my home and collect cash.

i have tried the zee's home pickup service for recharge money.

it did not work because all the numbers mentioned on zee dish tv website pointed to people who were ONCE a dealer of dish tv and are no longer interested in dealing with zee customers.

99% of zee dish tv 'dealers' are the ones who would sell you the box but once you have it... they are not going to deal with you. they would just tell you to contact zee dish tv customer care for any problems or queries.
