Horrible service from DSTV

On Fri 7 Aug phone DSTV to connect my holiday house decoder. Get informed that billing system has changed and is now pre-paid. Go to local agent and pay R699 and decoder is switched on. 17th Aug I phone call center to switch off. Told that account is suspended. Can't be, its playing. Eventually gets switched off.<br> 20 Aug phone to have decoder switched on. Can't switch on, account suspended, no money in account. 6 more phone calls, 8 visits to agent my money still missing. Ref.no # ***i36. Eventually money appears back in account but nobody can switch it on. Pay another R100 into account. still no go. Drive to Cape Town (300km trip). Get switched on. 40hrs later acc suspended. No money in account. More phone calls, visits to agent, e-mails. Get ***. Account was being debited while service was off. Eventually get money back. Nobody can switch it on. Another 300km trip to Cape Town. Nobody can help. More e-mails. Get ***. Still nobody can switch it on. After 31 days,16 phone calls, 19 visits to agents, ****m travel, 8 e-mails, 3 ref numbers, many profound apologies still no connection.
