Poor service, no delivery, passing the buck
I took my HD pvr in as it had a error BE1, they told me 7 working days and after 7 days I phoned and was advised to come and collect. When I got there the exchange that they wanted to give me was also faulty E107 error. My question was : dont they test the decorders before they send it back to the branch? They then advised me another 2-3 working days, Friday I got a call from the call centre and they told me to go and collect. When I got there they did not have the decoder there and apparently they were still waiting for the couriers.. When I got home I phoned the call centre again and explained my frustration to them, the manager would have phoned the following morning 09:00 but nobody phoned. I have just been contacted by the branch and was informed that they are still waiting for the couriers and will probably not receive it today as they dont know where the couriers are. Is it not possible for anybody to phone them and find out? All I get told is that they are still waiting!! They told me at the branch that I am fighting with the wrong people, who else is suppose to help me but them?I am so frustrated and all I want is the decoder in a working condition!! If I have to add up the costs (travelling costs and taking time off from work) to sort this out I could have bought a new decoder

MISLEADING ADVERTISING
I bought a new PVR Decoder on [Hidden Web Address] after being BOMBARDED with advertisements on how great PVR is. Only to find out after I've cancelled my older model decoder and smart card that if you are on an older model a installations of an extra cable is required, which totals anything from R1000 to R1500. NO WHERE did multichoice EVER mention this in their advertisements, on the sales page of the decoder on Kalahari or any other advertisement I have seen. If I had known before hand I would not have purchased the PVR decoder. This is false and misleading advertising and I am taking this matter much further, I will be complaining to every consumer forum available and I am taking this to the press. According to the new consumer law this is not acceptable and I will take this matter furhter. I demand to be refunded for the PVR decoder or have the installation done free! My account is always paid and up to date, for what? Only to be mislead and mistreated? ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS!

MNET
Recently Mnet did what they called a terestrial split, what this means is that Mnet transmition only switches over at 19:30pm. So no more Ktv or day time programming... Why should I pay full price for half a service???

billing
I used to subscribe to the South Indian bouquet on multichoice till the end of December 2010. On the 16 of December I included the premium bouquet to my subscription and instructed the operator to disconnect me on the 31st of December 2010. My services were disconnected as requested on the 31 0f December 2010 but the debit order was not stopped. On the 9 of march 2011 I spoke to a Johnathan (ref no 73643648) who told me that an amount of R670. will be deposited into my bank account in 10 days time. He also informed me that if I requested for a stop payment 3 days before the megatape run then the debit order would have been stopped. I requested termination on the 16 of December - this gives many a three days to stop my payment on the megatape (WHAT I FAIL TO UNDERSTAND IS WHY DID THEY WAIT FOR ME TO PHONE FOR MY MONEY. MISTAKES DO HAPPEN AND COULD HAVE BEEN RECTIFIED LONG BEFORE I PHONED WITH MY QUERY). On the 28 of March I checked my bank account and found that the money from multichoice was not deposited. I phoned and spoke to Palesa(ref no 74509238) She informed me that the journal entry from Johanathan was still pending. She however sorted the journal and assured me that payment will be made. I insisted that my money be in my account by 13H00 on 29 March 2011 and proof of payment be mailed to my email account - failing which the matter will be taken to the national press. At about 16H00 a gentleman from multichoice phoned me and I told him that I want proof of payment by 13H00 the next day (29 March 2011).
On the 29 of March 2011 a recon statement of my account with multichoice was mailed to me at 12H30 but no proof of payment. When I phoned at 16h45 I spoke to a Vincent Saebe (ref no. 74594233) who told me that the person who took the original instruction on the 16 of December did not complete the job properly therefpre the debit order went through
In my opinion the money was fraudulantly taken from my account and sad to say Multichoice has a bunch of incompetnent people working for them and it is because of their inability to perform their duties properly we the subscribers suffer
INCIDENTLY THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. I HAVE BEEN A VICTEM TWICE.
THANKS
MR G.M. GOUNDEN

2 months and still no satisfaction
During February I had a problem with my DSTV Account. After logging a complint on this site I was contacted by a Customer Service Rep. of DSTV (Liesel Daniels) who assured me that my issue will be sorted out. She has not yet until date sorted out my problem. I get disconnected every 2 weeks or so and I have to call in incurring expeses on my phone bill at my cost to keep explaining the issue to DSTV and get reconnected. The Problem is still not sorted and I have to keep explaining the SAME problems over and over again without putting the problem to rest.
I am absolutely furious !!!

Fraudulent use of account assisted by Multichoice
I discovered Multichoise taking money out of my account when I haven't had any service from them in 4 years. I called only to speak to Ouphile in the call centre who advised I had re-instated my account in March 2010. I told him I haven't lived in South Africa for 4 years and no longer own the property the service is registered to. He kept saying I called to reconnect, the more I said I didn't. I told him to disconnect with immediate effect and I want this investigated because how can someone just reconnect services in my name, charges to my South African bank account when I have all my personal details with me in another country. The service was not disconnected, the matter not investigated as my sister in South Africa received a call from a multichoice office and the offender, to ask why he cannot reconnect services? So Multichoice gave the man who stole my identity my phone number as well and told him to phone and ask why he cannot reconnect. I still have had no response from them and they continue to mess up. They do not believe I am no longer in South Africa and someone has stolen my identity and used it to reconnect an old account at my expense.

Multi-choice decided without notification to not bill customers and then to cut them off
Multi-choice decided without notification to not bill customers and then to cut them off (many of them) when they fail to pay (this now happens often since the customer never receives a bill). This rude and possibly illegal tactic also leaves the customer with no tax record. I am a very prompt bill payer--the kind most businesses would love--but I missed the multi-choice bill three tithey mes and each time complained to them about not being billed. Upon the second complaint, they then promised to send me an e-bill. This I received once only--the month of the complaint--and the next month while waiting for the next e-bill I was simply cut off for a third time. Of course, there is a reconnection fee. I think this is really poor customer service. In fact, that does not state it strongly. Their attitude and approach to customers is pretty horrible. Please look into this. I doubt if I am the only one irritated by them and their attitude to customers.
