### 1/5 — Not able to log in at all. Getting error message all the time.

*2025-02-05*

Every time provider is selected and mobile number is entered, this error message comes up:

Dear subscriber, we are facing some intermittent issue with the backend server, at the moment. Please try again after some time.

Happening all the time. Even while trying to report it on the app from the issue/feedback section, the same error message pops up. The app is unusable at this moment.

### 5/5 — Life saver

*2024-08-28*

My DTH operator (Airtel) forces you to have a base pack and then you don’t get any option to save money. 

This app is a life saver.

### 1/5 — App dies on opening on my iPhone

*2023-02-03*

The app does not even open, leave alone being able to use it. After installing, when I try to open, it just closes itself. I have tried it multiple times in the last one week, but the same result. I have at least 7Gb of storage available and other apps are working fine. iPhone SE running 16.1.1

I have rechecked my service provider Airtel  and Airtel confirmed me that my detais are correct  that is My Registered phone number, my customer ID STB no of topup box etc  
Who will solve this help required

### 2/5 — App not working

*2020-08-13*

Dear Trai team 
It’s a good initiative taken to provide a good experience to the people . But the app when even we enter the mobile number and go to enter the next field the entered mobile number is wiped off . Please fix this bug .

### 5/5 — Customer has power now

*2020-07-24*

Thanks a lot for TRAI for launching this app.. I was paying 400 Rupees per month.. My service provider had done all tricks in their app, so that I could not unselect some hefty packages. But not now I’m able to easily quickly unselect unwanted channels and packages in TRAI’S channel selector APP.. Now my monthly bill decreased by half to 200 rupees.. Thanks to TRAI putting Bridle to service providers..

### 1/5 — Hathway Cable Customer [901] error

*2020-07-17*

Initially on first week after the app launched Hathway was able on this app to check your package details and the next week onwards it throws up an error.

In correct details 
Dear subscriber, you have entered incorrect details. You may also login with subscriber ID/Set top box no (VC No) [901]

I am surprised when it was able to work in first week of launch app why not in second week and it’s been more then one month I don’t know when this error going to be fixed by TRAI/Hathway and the end customers are in loss by bundling all Tamil/Kanada/Bengali/Marathi FTA channels which I don’t want them to be part of in FTA package atleast bring a final solution and not simply saying customer is king and have power to exercise is choice to choose 😡
