Unrealiable Installers hired by multichoice

I received a call from a sales agent on the 29/04/2024 regarding an Ultra Price lock. I was vetted and I qualified. I was asked when would I like the decoder to be installed, I advised that on the 02/05/2024 I will be available. All details were confirmed and an installer was assigned. The name of the installer is Glass Dudez Accreditation number: ***9MC Contact: ***. These installers confirmed an installation that didn't happen on the 01/05/2024, When I called to check with Multichoice Ntobeko advised that number has changed on his side in terms of the package. I waited for the installer on the 02/05/2024 as per the scheduled date and time 09:00 am. Upon waiting I received an sms at 09:18am indicating that I am not available and the installation will be rescheduled for 04/05/2024 before 5pm. I called the call centre to find out what buffoonery was that, I was given another installer in Welkom mind you i am in Stretford, I called again and was given Ndlhovu Satellite Installations in Ext2 Orange Farm *** number rungs forever. I need to know if you vet your installers or before assigning any jobs to them do you call and verify. Because now I am losing two days of not going to work waiting for nothing. Why is it that your installers can lie about contacting a person who set the time themselves. And also do you check and update your installers details or you are just happy to keep customers? I called now and the lady took her own time trying to get hold of these two installers to no avail. the matter escalated and I hope they will be dealt with ***. I failed to honor a payment because I am waiting for a new subscription to be activated and I can pay. Now I can't watch TV.

Reviewer Update
It is with regret that I agreed to reconnect with dstv or multichoice. I am still waiting for someone to contact me and tell me I am crazy because the so called installer or multichoice sent an sms at 8am today 04/05/2024 advising they are coming today. I had to leave my things and stay at home. The time was supposed to be 5pm it is now 5:48pm and the number is not working. And so disappointed in multichoices service and wish to cancel the whole deal please. Keep your ultra decoder you can watch it with your staff.
