Multichoice Invisible Rule Book

I was supposed to be moving to a new house ( Cosmo Development ), I then discovered that I cant due to the building not being complete ( Long Story ), then I call Multi-choice to Disconnect my Services Temporarily whilst I stay with Relatives till I can move to my house, I'm told that this disconnection can only be done next month and I need to pay in the full subscription Fee and come re-connection time I need to pay in a connection fee. When asking why I need to pay for a full month that I wont be using my subscription I was told its due to me calling in 2 days after my payment date ( Mind you I did not plan to disconnect, i intended to enjoy my subscription fully at the new place, due to a fortuitous occurrence I am unable to ). I spoke to an insensitive Boitumelo Masipa, who just quoted rules without even referring me to where those are contained, and said it was not possible to pay a pro-rata amount for the two days and have the service disconnected, I believe each situation should be taken on its own merits guys and flexibility should be there for some cases

Good day Mongamele

Firstly, I apologise for the poor customer experience received from Boitumelo. I fully understand your concern and disappointment.

Please be informed that your DStv service is a month-to-month contract. When you pay your subscription, the contract for that month is therefore fixed on the package active as at the beginning of your billing cycle.

To fully align with our regulations, downgrades and disconnections can only happen once a month, on the day your next subscription payment is due. This is to now ensure that you adhere to the month to month billing rules.

For this reason, we have scheduled for your DStv service disconnect on the 26 March 2018.

Thank you for taking your time to contact us.

Kind regards

Dinah
