Unhappy about reversed "discount"!!!!

I had an issue with my decoder so I called into DStv, only to realise it was the charger on my decoder that needed to be replaced. I informed DStv that i will be away from home so i will not be able to sort it out so i will cancel my subscription and when I'm home again i will reinstate it... A few months later i reinstated it and realised my account had a credit of +-R500. I called DStv to query and they said it was my discount. I didnt pay that month (this was June) in July I saw I still have a discount and called in again to make sure it was right.... They assured me it was and so I paid the R290 difference that they requested. I kept double checking *120*68584# to make sure I was paying the correct amount. This month I paid my normal R390 and realised that I need to pay an extra R120 odd.... I called in and explained what happened and the lady said it was their error and it will be resolved in 2 days. My ref number was ***5-C1.... 4 days later, no call, no resolution. I received an sms requesting I pay that difference today. I called in again and was told a team leader would call me in 30 mins to an hour and the agent understood my frustration. Its 5 hours later and still nothing. Why tell me it is DStvs fault and all that only to try force me to pay that difference? My issue is that I kept on querying this discount and now they tell me it was an error on their side and I want supposed to get that discount.... But for 2 months nobody informed me this and I had no issues.... DStv what do I need to do to get this resolved??

Reviewer Update
Dstv has contacted me and shown total disrespect and disregard about my complaint. They want me to just pay even though they acknowledge it was an error on my side. I have been contacted via Twitter after I reached out. I haven't even received a call to inform me of anything. They are blatantly telling me to pay for their error to have my service reinstated. I am so disgusted and feel so disrespected!
