Reconnection fee A *******

It is 2015 in the age of choice. WE choose when to switch off or ON<br> And for this you FINE US.<br> <br> HOW can it be possible that when I choose not to pay for your service to continue into the next month you then disconnect and charge a R50 fine to reconnect?<br> You expect me to call you to say I no longer want a service that by default you cut off?<br> <br> Surely by default you can switch on!<br> <br> What is it with companies like this that treat us customers like ********* that have transgressed your old fashioned rules.<br> <br> ALLOW me to not pay and get no service...OR pay and get a service. EASY<br> On principal I then miss a month at a cost to you of 700 rand in defiance of your 50 rand penalty to me.<br> <br> And your website functionality does not allow for easy payment with a card?<br> <br>
