Dissatisfied and inconvenienced

I bought a TV online on the 17 January 2026, on Monday the 19 January 2026 I got an sms and an email stating that my order was canceled die to SABC they can't confirm license, then I responded on the 20 January I got a call for a lady call Yolanda of which she told me that it was canceled because its out of stock, and advise ill get my refund then over the weekend I can go to the shop to purchase it there, she can't confirm if sabc will be online and allocated the store for me that had 21 this left.

I sent all the banking details same day, after that they went quiet, today I sent an email for follow up only to be told by Mariona that it was processed yesterday and it will take 7 to 14 working days to reflect of which I don't understand because I was not told that information.

Like I don't understand they are quick to cancell the order even though im not really sure why they cancel it now its difficult for me to get my money back, the TV still shows online it is available, I really don't understand how these people work honestly no communication i must ask them about my money, I specifically said to them I still want the TV they could have sent the voucher to the store then I go and collect the TV, they are so inconvenience and I must be inconvenience because of their error like really.

The only time they apologize when u ask them, customers are not important to them im so ****ed.

Why my order was canceled because i have two stories regarding the issue? Emai states sabc, customer services says out of stock which one is which? Now that I have suggested the voucher thing why your customer service didn't think of it as I have said to the I still want the tv ? It seems as if the customer service doesn't care about customers. Why must I be the one following up? Banking details were sent on the 20th only on the 26 it was processed and you are telling g me about 7 to 14 that is the bank, what was happening between 20th and 25th when it comes to my refund? Obviously you were not interested to sell the tv as it was quick for cancellation.

Hi

No one has contacted me, my money is not in my account till today.
I am really frustrated with the service, I bought a TV within seconds the money was paid now its difficult to get my money back, like no one is communicating with me regards my money, right now I sound like a broken record asking for my hard earned money.

Im getting really realy tired or must I forget my money?

All I get is empty promises that ill be contacted but nothing

Hi Nothemba, I'm sorry, your TV license wasn't refunded. You will need to contact the SABC directly to cancel it and request a refund, as this is a 3rd party purchase.

HI Nothemba, Thank you for coming back to us. With the purchase of a TV license, the payment is made directly to SABC.
