DSTV support service sucks!

I moved over to a month to month subscription after my Pricelock contract lapsed at the end of May this year. Every month DSTV payments still continue with the original debit order amount as before. On 6 July my service was cut off without notice and I contacted the call centre to find out what the reason was. call centre agent could not assist and 'escaleted' my issue which she assured me would be fixed within an hour. No change and one hour later I called again. New person told me again that she would have to escalate my issue. My service was restored 2 hours later. My PVR functionality doesn't work and Extraview is inactive. I have phoned 3 additional times and on 9 July I still have the same issue. Each time they tell me they will escalate my issue. I'm very frustrated and considering cancelling the subscription!

Good day Lindsay

Thank you for sending us your query. I also apologise for the delayed response.

According to our records, your Price Lock contract ended on 05 July 2018. On the same day, the Premium package was activated. The credit balance of R490.00 was transferred to the normal DStv account.

However, this credit is not sufficient to keep the service active till 26 July 2018. The total balance required today is R644.30.

Please be reminded that there's no discount for the normal DStv account. This makes the total monthly subscription for your DStv account to be R954.00 including:

  • R809.00 for Premium package
  • R90.00 for Xtraview package
  • R35.00 for insurance
  • R20.00 for insurance

This is required by 27th of every month.

Kind regards

Dinah

Best regards,

LY

HI there. I have requested a downgrade to a cheaper package, so looking to DSTV accounts dept to reflect the balance payment in my next debit order payment. Thanks.
