Colorado TV Mitchells Plain and DSTV

<p>I upgraded my HD pvr and std Dec to a Explorer/Pvr bundle on the Dstv R899 special last month. I had colorado TV in Mitchells Plain do the installation which came with the package. Since then I have had to restart both decoders on a weekly basis as they freeze all the time. I eventually phoned Dstv last night and after 45 min on my cell with them they inform me that the installation was not done correctly and I need to contact colorado to come out and see what is going on. I called Colorado TV 3 times today and each time they promised that they will be out today. It is now 9pm and no one has arrived or even called to say what is going on. Neither of my decoders are now working, they are either giving me simply card invalid or no signal errors. I wish someone at Dstv informed me that this is what my R900 per month is going towards or maybe they were waiting for me to sign the 2 year contract. I am also wondering who is going to pay all the call out fees for shoddy installations. Maybe my R900 isn't enough to them. Not sure what to do. </p>

Thank you so much for your reply. Yes I had 2 gentlemen from multichoice out who quickly got the problem sorted although it is still not working 100%, it is working much better.
