Cignal TV customer care sucks… So if you can see clear TV stations with your aerial antenna, stay to that and get far away from the worst service ever!

Ever experienced a customer talking with the customer rep, explaining your side, and suddenly… beep beep beep busy tone?

CIGNAL service is a pure dissapointment! I regret subscribing to its service. You can only enjoy the service whenever its sunny otherwise no signal! Worse, Mediascape has the gall to collect monthly advance payments to its subscribers…what a greedy company this is!

You guys explain it well! I guess Dream is a better choice since it is in the middle of the road using your category of cost, signal strength, and picture quality. Sayang parang wala kayong dealership here in Davao. I could have bought both my Cignal and Dream from you guys. Two thumps up for your company!

Cignal Digita TV is #1 on Picture Quality.
Dream Satellite TV is #1 on Signal Quality.
Gsat Direct TV is 1# on Affordability.

Whats the best Satellite Cable for you?
For me its not all about Technical stuff..
Its all about the channel list they offer..

i don’t thing i have to spend P1,290 for TV na redundant channel e.g. my Nat Geo SD kana my NAt Geo HD pa, HBO and HBO HD, Star Movies and Star Movies HD. What’s the point of having the same programming? Sayang lng ang binabayaran mo. Ang dapat nilang gawin is to separate SD package from HD. Dpt kung sino lng ang gusto na magkuha ng HD or para magkaroon ng better option ang mga tao.

their marketing is also very deceiving. they (Cignal) say na my HD kana 4 only P290. Mali yun kasi ang P290 package are consist of free-to-air channels that are broadcast in SD. Hindi ba pangloloko yan sa tao? If you haven’t done your research d mo tlaga malalaman na mahal ang Cignal compared to other DTH providers.

Try to see their P390 package: most of it are free-to-air channels with a extremely boring Bio Channel, Viva Cinema, and PBO. And for me, the ONLY entertaining channels are AXN, BTV, and HBO. I do find CNN interesting, but do you watch CNN like everyday? An average Filipino don’t even watch CNN at all! How can you find value to your money if I have to pay 390 bucks just to get SEVEN premium channels (given that i just consider Viva and PBO a piece of crap and my computation exclude free-to-air channels since you can access it any time via old school antenna!)

Trust me! I’ve been a Cignal subscriber for over a year and im telling you you’ll get bored with the programming they are offering you. I honestly can’t afford HD packages so I switch to Dream Satellite TV to get more premium channel like Discovery Ch., Nat Geo, etc. And DREAM is not that bad, kung ang Cignal on scale of 0-10 where 10 is very clear, i think i’ll give them a 9 and DREAM is 8.

SO think twice before subscribing to Cignal!

Haha good thing i visited yugatech bago ko mag subscribe sa Cignal. Hindi na ko papakabit, syempre mas maganda pa rin magbasa ng feedback ng mga customer kesa magbasa ng adds nila. Stay na lang ako with SkyCable.

Thanks guys.

Nako CIGNAL. Magsara na kayo muka pala kayong pera! hahahaha!

Thinking about having one… konti nga lang ang channels

By: Dave

Dave — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 09:47:20 +0000

sa CIGNAL, doble ang aparato mo. TV apparatus at Cignal apparatus.. so doble ang elecric bill mo! aside from messy connection because of signal cone attach to your roof. konti na ang channel, mahal pa ang monthly payment.
MAG Skycable ka na lang or Home cable. Dami na channel at cable lang ang gamit nila. direct sa TV(RF). walang apparatus so tipid kuryente.. mura pa Monthly.. at higit sa lahat, pwde kang mag splitter kung marami TV mo sa bahay! sa Cignal isang aparato, isang tv.. hindi pwede spliter.

Cignal really has the super worst service ever. Magsara na kayo, refund nyo na lang lahat. Nagproprovide kayo ng service serbisyo nyo walang kakwenta kwenta.

mas ok pa ang GSAT mura pa with 30 channels at good for one year ang subscription at hindi ka palagi nag loload every month,,it is convenience for the subscriber…I had been subscribed to GSAT and I satisfied their service kasi wala ka na iisipin pa kasi your subscription is locked with in one year and after one year ka pa uli magrenew ng subscription so it is hassle free…malinaw pa ang reception at pang masa ang ang presyo…

This just happened to me now.

1. I thought there were notifications when one opens their TV for their billing. Wala.
2. I have not received any billing statements at all.
3. The billing statements could have helped remind me of paying pero since wala akong natatanggap is because I thought they are giving me goodwill, but then binabayaran ko din, hinahabol ko nga lang.
4. Last September 15, 2010, I paid thru Metrobank. They disconnected me September 16! I just knew about this because today September 19, ngayon lang ako nagbukas ng TV, dun ko lang nalaman kase wala na akong makitang channel except Channel 5 na me nakablock pang Welcome to Mediaquest.
6. I do not know why am i ranting on your blog, sir, but do forgive me for venting my ire.
7. PLDT pa naman is a big company. It is true pala that they do not give a damn about customer service.
8. Kaya lang ako forced to get satellite, is because SkyCable does not service our area. Kahit anong pakiusap ko, hindi daw puede.

MY ADVISE : DO NOT GET CIGNAL TV. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. AATAKIHIN LANG KAYO SA PUSO PAG DATING SA AFTER SALES SERVICE. GANO KAKITID ANG UTAK NILA WHEN IT COMES WITH DEALING WITH PROBLEMS.
