DSTV 'grace period' charges

I have been receiving phone calls from people representing DSTV saying that I have been handed over to lawyers for not paying for the grace period DSTV has given me. Firstly, it's not the first time I don't pay DSTV when I know I won't be around my home to use it. Secondly, I have always been aware of the reconnection fee once they have cut off their services. Thirdly, I have never requested for a grace period ever and to now suddenly be charged for something I know nothing about is ridiculous. DSTV has to be the worst service provider. I am not on any fixed contract with them and understand that it is a month to month service. Disgusting customer service.

Hi  Sinomtha M,

Kindly be advised that if you are not going to make a payment on the payment date, you will need to contact us to advise cancellation on your payment date. This way it will not be active after the payment date and you will not be charged.

We have reversed the charges that you were billed after the payment date.

Kind regards
