Gross misconduct and *****

On the 24th August 2017 I made a payment to Dstv of R1300.00. directly after that I called them to ask will they still debit my account on the 27th august 2017 as I had arranged and I was advised that they would how ever if would only be my full subscription less my credit after the payment of R1300 I had just made which was R350 more or less. The whole week went by and they still had not taken the debit from my account so I called in to enquire on the 01 September 2017 as to why they hadn't taken anything because I was told the would.

I was then advised that they had not taken the debit because I am still in a credit of R350 more or less.

and then asked ok if that is the case please transfer R175 to my box office account. According to this consultant he had done so and informed me that I am now in a credit of R150 more or less. I then asked him ok so when will my next debit order would be and he advised that it would be on the 27th of September and would be the following amount - my full subscription + what was due on box office less my credit I had available.

this is not the case and ever since then every 2 days my account gets disconnected and I have spoken to 8 supervisors now and each on has promised they will pull the recording of the consultant I spoke to and call me the next day with the feedback. I asked every time so I will not be disconnected until such time you give me feedback. And every time I was told no sir you wont.

every time no single person called me back and I have been disconnected from my services more than 10 times.

each time I have to call back and explain the same situation from begging to end with each supervisor.

and this has already amounted into over R900 in costs to call from my cell phone to the call centre.

to ad fuel to the fire money was transferred from my one account to another without my consent and that is *****.

even after this was made clear to them.

I still have not heard anything back regarding the 1st call I had with a supervisor up until the 8th supervisor I spoke to,.

nothing has been done either about the ***** on my account and to top it all off I have been disconnected a 11th time.

I fell this I s extremely unprofessional from Multi Choice and it goes completely against the FIAS and FICA act.

I will be escalating this to the compliance officer and make sure that Multichoice take full responsibility for all of this.

I was then

Hi Dinah.....I went Into your Multi choice office in Centurion on Saturday 23/09/2017 the Supervisor on Duty pulled the call and we listened to the call in the office. I was them contacted on Sunday the 24/09/2017 by the consultant who assisted me with the supervisor and I was told the following. My residential account is now been rectified and has a credit balance of R302 and my price lock account has been amended as I was advised when I did the contract and I will be debited today as follows R874 - R302 which is my credit( residential account) = R572 + R475 (box office) + R959 (price lock) so total amounting to R2006 which is to be debited today. Now once again I have a issue because my account was debited R2660.75 which is omce again incorrect!! This is honestly ridiculous because even by going in to your offices and correcting an error I had tried to do telephonically for 4 weeks and spending over R900 to resolve this issue it is still not correct and my credit scoring is being affected negatively due to the incompetence of your staff! Now again I have to get in touch with you and resolve this again?? Where does this end? This whole month has been an Inconvenience to myself and not to mention the fact that I have had to still pay a full months subscription even though I was disconnected 11 times in the month after I paid upfront for it....and on top of it all who's paying for my call costs to rectify this problem? I am and yet there is no care or diligence or even basic customer service or for that matter a hint of sincerity with regards to this matter. I excpwxt this to be rectified y the end of business tomorrow 28/09/2017 and that I be....reimbursed the R654 over debited from my account aswell as I be credited for not being able to use the full service for the month that passed as well as the coats incurred for having to call in to your call centers to resolve this issue that just fell on deaf ears. This is honestly become a case of pure negligence .
