Customer Reviews of KyLinTV

This blog has been running for a while now and there is no doubt that there are a lot of people upset with KyLinTV! I receive a constant stream of e-mail and posts from disgruntled customers (past and present.)

I thought that since many of their comments are buried I would bring excerpts of them to the surface for everyone to see:

One word for Kylin - "SUCKS".
needless to say, outage at most of time, long time buffering, low quality picture ...
the thing really bug me is:
I have tried to cancel their service for 6 month. Every time I called them and was told to call another number to billing dept and after I dialed billing dept, its went voice mail directly. How many times I tried to call them to cancel? COUNTLESS!!! - Calvin | 11 Aug 2008

Honestly, I think you should go with DishNetwork. -KyLinViewer | 17 Jan 2008

Kylin's business model needs a serious review. - Kevin | 20 April 2008

Kylin is getting worse by the minute it seems. - Anonymous | 2 Aug 2008

This company is cheating, and I will send out a formal complain. - Anonymous | 27 Aug 2008

Never never go to KyLinTV. Otherwise, you will keep charging your credit card after you cancell the service. The service is terible and false ads. - Anonymous | 01 Sep 2008

The absences of CCTV-4 was upsetting and they lied about the outage. Now that it is back, they are reconfiguring the packages so if I want to have what I have now when my subscription expires, it would cost something like $600, up from $360....
These people are very greedy and instead of making subscribers happy, they want to wring out as much cash as they can from the subscribers... - Patsaison | 01 Sep 2008

this is ridiculous, i signed up with kylintv for about 4 months and i decided to cancel my service 2 months ago, i asked them for a return shipping box and received no reply for 2 ENTIRE months!
Today i checked my credit card bill and I see a $198 charge from KylinTv!! What the hell happened to the "Free Set top Box" or the response to my email, if I knew I was going to be charged $198, I sure as hell would send it back and pay the damn shipping myself!!! - Anonymous | 20 Nov 2007

Not happy at all with the kind of service we got. - Anonymous | 04 Aug 2008

Olympics - How are you watching?

My household is debating on the best way to watch the 2008 Olympics. Online, NBC on regular TV, CCTV or trying one of the IPTV solutions again.

How are you watching the Olympics this year? Suggestions?

A Call to KyLinTV

Alright, I guess that KyLinTV has been working on making amends with some customers, enabling WPA on their STB and from what I hear programming has been restored or replaced from when I had active service with them.

So here is a proposal to KyLinTV, publicly to see their response if any. If you guys send me out a STB with no programming limitations I will post continued reviews in Chinese and English on this blog.

After the months and months of paid service with outages, unexplained cancellations, multiple STB being sent to me and requiring return on my own dime, and returning the final box on my own dime I am not willing to spend a penny more on it. But, if you guys want me to give honest opinions form myself, friends and relatives I am willing to do that if you provide it to me.

I will happily review new services, equipment and test out anything KyLinTV send me.

So let me know if you want to work something out.

Anybody been to the Live Demos?

Just wondering if anybody has ever seen or is going to these "Live Demos" that KylinTV is doing?

Let me know how the demos look compared to your real service. I am just curious about it.
