2 Years after cancellation I am being harassed (By SMS) for money I apparently did not pay in August 2015. But MultiChoice can not provide a Statement indicating this

<p>1. In August 2015 I cancelled my subscription to MultiChoice</p> <p>2. In June 2017 I received an SMS informing me that my account has a R635 outstanding and has been handed over. This is the first I have heard from MultiChoice in 22 Months, not an email, a phone call or SMS in 22 Months.... they just hand you over and threaten you.</p> <p>3. When I received the SMS I immediately logged on to the MultiChoice website where it indicates a 0 Balance Box Office and Amount to Pay on Main Account 0. I have taken screenshot of proof of this</p> <p>4.I requested statements or detailed transaction history from June 2015 to current, and all I get is statements starting at September 2015 with someone writing in the body of the email some explanation of transactions that took place.</p> <p>What I requested via email is a system generated Statement / Detail Transaction history that is not manipulated by someone in the body of an email</p> <p>I am desperately trying to get to the bottom of this problem. If I made a mistake, I will gladly correct it, but to expect your customer to pay you after 22 months is very suspicious.</p> <p>Lastly. I am putting this on Hello Peter because is this not just a last witch hunt to recover the R22 Million fine they were slapped with for anticompetitive behavior ?</p>

Hi. There is no statement in my inbox. I trust these will be a bunch of statements ranging from before you claim there is anoutstanding balance and the perceding months reflecting the outstanding balance. Multichoice had a debit order, I do not believe there could have possibly been an overdue amount, especially since Multichoice was responsable for taking the money from my account in the first place. I will not pay for any "So called Grace" that multichoice gives you ... if it was "Grace" then why am I expected to pay for it ?

Still no Statements in my Inbox.... just more harassing sms's from those low lives you get to stalk your so called "Valued Customers". One SMS received yesterday for R635 Final reminder. Today another SMS for R153.57 Final Reminder. WHERE ARE MY STATEMENTS AS PROMISED. I WILL NOT PAY A CENT UNTIL YOU CAN PROVE TO ME THAT I OWE YOU MONEY. TELL YOUR LOW LIFE DEBT COLLECTORS TO STOP HARASSING ME.
