Airtel Digital TV is one such DTH operator which focusses on delivering quality services to the customers. It was the first DTH operator in the country to bring an Android TV-based Set-Top Box back in 2017. Airtel Xstream Box is the latest STB from the company which provides Satellite TV and OTT apps to the subscribers. After the new tariff regime by Trai, DTH operators removed the long-term channel packs which were available to the subscribers in the past. However, the service providers came up with long-term recharges scheme as part of which they are offering extra service to the customers for free. Airtel Digital TV has various basepacks in place and they ship with up to 30 days of extra service if the customer chooses the same pack for 11 months.

Airtel Basepacks Explained
It is likely that you have heard about the long-term plans that the other DTH operators ship to their customers. Usually, under these long-term plans, the subscribers enjoy free service months when they make an upfront payment to their DTH operators. Tata Sky has its own version called the Tata Sky cashback offer, while D2h and Dish TV offer them under long-term packs only. Similarly, Airtel Digital TV’s answer to these long-term plans are the Basepacks. Airtel Digital TV has also listed these plans as the advance rental plans, and as the name suggests, the subscribers will have to recharge their Airtel Digital TV account with an upfront payment for a semi-annual or an annual subscription upon doing which they will receive the benefit in the form of free service days. Currently, the subscribers will have two option to make upfront payments.
