Viewers in Tamil Nadu left in the dark following abrupt pack changes by TCCL, VK Digital, & SCV
Chennai, 14th October, 2024— In a disappointing turn of events, subscribers in Tamil Nadu have been left without access to their favorite Star channels, including Star Vijay and Star Sports 1 Tamil, due to misleading claims and unjustified, unilateral actions by major operators TCCL, VK Digital, and SCV.
These operators have falsely
claimed that prices for Star Vijay and other Star channels have increased,
leading them to remove these channels en-masse from their base packs without
any prior notice to customers or any requests from the subscribers/customers.
This abrupt action has deprived countless viewers/subscribers of the
entertainment they cherish, including the highly anticipated Bigg Boss Tamil
Season 8, hosted by the charismatic Vijay Sethupathi, and the exciting ICC
Women’s T20 World Cup.
“There has been no increase in
the prices of Star Vijay and Star Sports 1 Tamil. We’re proud to present a
robust line-up of marquee content across entertainment and sports this festive
season. Over the years, Bigg Boss Tamil has created a special place in
the hearts of our viewers in Tamil Nadu, with its connection getting stronger
with every passing season. With women’s cricket gaining momentum, the ICC
Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is a must-watch event. We look forward to
continually entertaining our viewers with high-quality content,” said a Disney
Star spokesperson.
By misstating facts that Star
channel prices have been increased, some MSOs have sought to unilaterally
disrupt subscribers access to popular shows like Baakiyalakshmi, Siragadikka
Aasai, Aha Kalyanam etc. but also leave them frustrated and
confused. This abrupt change has left consumers disappointed and robbed of
their entertainment needs. Viewers affected by this situation should contact
their operators immediately to seek immediate reversion to the viewing experience
as before 1st October, 2024. If they still don’t regain access to
their favorite channels, they may consider switching to an alternative operator
that values them and their entertainment choices.
Disney Star Network is committed
to bringing the best entertainment to its audience in Tamil Nadu. The network hopes
that TCCL, VK Digital, and SCV rectify the situation created by them swiftly,
in line with Hon’ble TDSAT orders dated 09.10.2024 so that subscribers can
resume enjoying their favourite Star channels without further delay.
