Repeats, Repeats, Repeats, Repeats, Repeats

My daughter is home sick and has had to sit through repeats on channel 303. Programs that were on this morning are being repeated again now at 12:00 and I expect they will be repeated again at 16:00. So not only do you repeat programs weekly, monthly and yearly, but daily as well. Is this seriously what I am paying over R850 a month for. I feel a little taken advantage of.

Hello andresa,

Please accept our sincere apologies for the delayed response in this regard. We are currently experiencing high contact volumes.

The main reason programmes are repeated is to give people a second or third chance to see something they might have missed. Or a second or third chance to record a show on their PVRs.The other reason is that there are only so many new movies and shows being made every year. A single channel broadcasting 24 hours a day needs 8 760 hours of content a year. There are only about 600 new movies made every year, giving just 1 200 hours of movies. However, there is a lot of new content available on a weekly basis ? channels such as M-Net, M-Net Edge and kykNET premiere new shows and movies every week. We encourage our subscribers to let us know of any content they feel is missing.

Once again please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience you may have experienced in this regard. Should you require any further assistance, please feel free to make use of our other communication mediums (touchpoints) below.
