Dstv bad servise

Hi, I am really disappointed with dstv in January this year I upgraded to dstv explorer. With Hope's that I will be able to catch up my missed episodes as I'm always at work and the only time that I can catch up is during weekends when I'm off. I was told that the explorer comes with new installations meaning they have to change the dish outside and put on a new one. Well the dstv personnel came and did installation and told me that I have to wait for few days for signal to fully load all the catch up channels. I had always had one episode or one channel on catch up, with my lack of knowledge I was under the impression that maybe i have to pay dstv premium in order to enjoy the catch up benefits cause I am currently on compact plus. Until yesterday when my friend told me that she is also on compact and she is enjoying the catch up benefits fully, she advised me that I should contact dstv center. I spoke to Nonhlanhla and she told me that the reason I'm not receiving full episodes is because the signal is weak and that I need to call out the installation people to come and fix the signal, to my surprise I have to call the person and pay as if they are doing me a favour. Meaning all the extra R100 were just donations to dstv. I'm not happy very disappointed and I want dstv to fix the error without ne having to pay a cent and that return my monthly R100 that I have been paying for the past 3months

Hi Lihle,

As per our telephonic conversation, if the signal strength and quality are okay, you'll need to have the decoder tested at a MultiChoice agency  https://www.dstv.co.za/self-service/help/find-an-agency/  . But before going to the agency, please check if you'll get Catch Up titles in the next 24 hours. 

Kindly note that we tried to contact you for the second time but we could not get hold of you.
