DSTV don't care about customers satisfaction and only want to charge extra for service we clearly don't want.

I have sent 4 mails to a manager/superior in DSTV and 22 mails to DSTV about a case where DTSTV have created all the disarray and confusion. There are different employees responding every time, and nobody cares to take the time to read the 22 mails I have written. I am so fed up with DSTV, since they gave me a problem based that they did a mistake 24 Dec and they don't listen to phone calls, or read all the proof they have been served thereafter from my side.

It is totally unacceptable to ignore and not read documentation that I have laid forward in mail after mail. The last employee sent me proof of something from 24 Dec that was outdated and replaced by DSTV the next day, and I send with a copy of that where an employee express: “We profusely apologize for the inconvenience caused, - and the amount due is R370.23.” I have sent this several times to different workers in DSTV, but still DSTV mess it up every time. I have sent 22 mails and 4 - 5 should be more than enough. Besides, I have sent 3 feedback to DSTV and given rate 1 – 2 of the highest 10, but despite all this effort haven’t DSTV acted in accordance with what I should be able to expect. Nobody in management or any other employees in DSTV have acted in line with customers satisfaction in light of facts and how DSTV should conduct their business. I am sorry to say, but it is outrageous and disgraceful. I paid the amount below in line with DSTV for a short limited time for one apartment for my Canadian friends. DSTV incorrectly charged for a whole month extra, despite no one lives in that apartment. I have written numerous time over and over and can proof that we didn’t want DSTV for more than the one apartment for a few days. We haven’t had DSTV for any of our apartments, since we cancelled for all of our 3 apartments last year in March. They still charged me extra for 1 month thereafter now in January, despite I called them and sent numerous mails that we only wanted DSTV for a few days. Why do they then charge us for an extra month that I clearly don't want when no one stays in the apartment?

It's shocking that I have written 22 mails and still they don't care, or do the right thing.

Reviewer Update
I have written 22 mails and sent 3 reviews to DSTV and 1 review to Hellopeter to no avail, and that is more than staggering.

How can they just continue to ignore and disregard all my attempts to get things right when they incorrectly charged me for a service I never asked for or wanted?

I was finally called up after my thorough review above and I explained the case again, and the lady promised on early on Tuesday 9 Feb to make sure to send me the funds that they wrongly charged and that I should have the funds latest by today. She also promised to send me a mail immediately to confirm that I would get the funds back into my account and within more than two full business days I still haven't received any mails or funds as she pledged.

It is utterly shocking and dreadful that DSTV still after 1 month of unfairness and unjustified actions still don't do the right thing and still keep the customers suffer for more than a month.
They express they are so sorry for the inconvenience, but don't do anything to correct their grossly and negligent errors even though after 26 written attempts and several verbal endeavors.
