Well I can say, that I had it installed a few days ago and up to now it's great, if you do a price comparison with other system's it's the best value.

Yes Lilli your right, It seems to me that people only make the time to post negative comments and don't recognise good service when they get it, it's only when things wrong they bother to comment.

came back after 7 months to find most channels scrambled, rang dopi gave the box back for software upgrade,returned the box all set with loads of english channels ,very helpful to ensure i was happy and did one extra service i asked to remove all adult channels so the kids would not it and he sorted all that so now i feel secure that the kids while kids to me all my life will refrain from sordid knowledge

A few months ago there were some big threads on this board about how bad dopi were, search if you like, as a result of that we chose not to go with it. We could not get any info by telephone or e-mail because they appeared to be getting bombarded with complaints. Be cautious!

Hi Sally.



Dopi is running this business for more than 4 years. We had a problem with our satellite service provide for a period of 4 weeks. which was sorted out and since then no problem at all.



Also customers when they're renewing their contracts they had a month free as a compensation of this period.



"We could not get any info by telephone or e-mail because they appeared to be getting bombarded with complaints"

Well even tough in this period system was getting off only in pick times(6 hours a day), customers were right to complain.



Also customers wanted information always could reach our office phones and get informed.



If you are not a customer and you chose not to go with it, what was the subject you wanted to get from us ? We are always happy to answer phones, emails if you still want information.

I've had Dopi for nearly 4 years now and I am very happy with the system. Yes they have had problems in the past, but they always seem to get sorted.

So many channels to choose from it's sometimes difficult to decide!

Films galore, Showseries with Corrie and Emmerdale (for anyone who's interested)

I think it's one of the best systems here and would recommend to anyone.

I am not a customer correct but that is largely because the Customer service was so bad when I made enquiries. I therefore have received bad customer service from you so I feel I am perfectly correct to point out that it has not always been a bed of roses.

We have had Dopi for around 9 months now. Yes, there were some problems last year for about a month or so, but as Namek has said a month's free subscription is given on renewal - which we will definitely be doing. Namek is very helpful and quick to upgrade and sort out problems. Hubby loves it cos he can watch all the English premiership games which he couldn't do in England........my only criticism of Dopi is that it has caused hubby to turn into a couch potato!

Dopi can't hold a candle to the BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, BBC4, ITV1, ITV2, SKY News for can watch for free on Sky.....

For one thing I wouldn't want the unsightly 4m dish obstructing my view just for the sake of watching UK TV when I have the choice of channels that there is on Dopi. Another reason being we can't all afford the cost of getting it installed.

Simon;



D-Smart is a system originally from Turkey, like Digiturk. They dont have English speaking channels except 5 channels (i have checked in march 2010)



About TV Schedule; as because we are dealing with many different packages, each of them keep their own schedule on their website which we have the links in our website. Also i will give you a couple of other websites giving Sports schedules daily.



Depending on the date you want the system, installation may take place between 1 and 6 days.



Please visit our office to see the channels, picture quality and we can go from there.



Regards.

Msg 39

It's a two small dish legitimate system broadcasted from Turkey as a one off payment. However, this year they have limited the 'free to air' channels. The best advice is to go into any satellite shop and commit them to what channels you'll receive with cost of installation and box. It suits my needs, but depends on what your requirements are. Worth asking before you commit yourself. Email me for the main agent address. Sorry, you can't, richardbgray@hotmail.com

Now I know you are telling blatant LIES.

D-Smart:-

TNT, CNN, Euro News, Al Jazeera, Movie Smart, Euro Sport, CNBC-E, E2, CCTV9, BBC World, Da Vinci Learning, Travel & Leisure, Discovery Science, Discovery World, Animal Planet, Discovery.

TRT1 for F1 & World Cup soccer (Turkish)

Not sure want school you went to but slightly more than 5, or is that your billing system!

PS I have the system and watching it right now.

TNT, CNN, Euro News, Al Jazeera, , Euro Sport, CNBC-E, E2, CCTV9, BBC World, channels are the channels you can get with any free to air system not special to D-Smart.



Da Vinci Learning, Travel & Leisure, Discovery Science, Discovery World, Animal Planet, Discovery, Movie Smart are the channels D-Smart decrypts. 7 channels.

Well, if you are looking for a cheap one off payment, free to air system i suggest you to have a "Nilesat" system. Which is going to be cheaper than D-Smart.



At least you can get much more english speaking channels.

Also there is no point of comparing D-Smart or other FTA systems with Dopi



They are one off payment Dopi is not.



They give at most 20 English speaking channels. Dopi gives almost 200 channel.

So you make a statement about a competitor which is inaccurate! How are you going to compensate your paid up customers for constant intermittent lack of service? Please look at previous posts and threads of complaint about your system.

Dopi tv off again, its been ok lately but here we go again, been off for a while now, definetly be paying monthly next year if renewing at all.



I think refunds or credits should be made available by Dopi if the system keeps going down, what do you think?

That was just one of many I quickly found. So, on a one year contract with, say, a one month disruption, no compensation unless paying for a further year? What about the lost month which has already been paid for and not wanting to renew? Tough luck? Great customer service!

Hi Guys,



I just think its a real pity that the Dopi saga continues to roll on.



Its all about personal choice.



I know that Dopi have had issues which they promised to resolve and they have done so why are people still hounding them and still making inflamatory remarks.



All of us have choices-My choice is to stay with Dopi because I think they actually care about customer service and are very supportive.

I totally agree Magicart, but it seems to be the norm on here, if anyone tries to say something good there's always many more with negative comments.

I've said before, I've had Dopi for nearly 4 years and, though I agree, they have had their problems, they always get them sorted.

I don't want a huge great dish in the garden taking up my views, so my option is a smaller one on the roof.

Dopi take a lot of stick for trying to help people, I'm surprised they haven't just given up and packed it all in.

It seems to be the norm here to kick someone when they try to do good, instead of being thankful for the hard work they have put in.
