Today, an accredited DSTV installer came to do an installation and charged me without providing a price estimate beforehand. I didnt even know that they were at my home, only the helper was present. The only time I was called was after the technician had already completed the installation and instructed me to contact DSTV to activate the decoder. Once the work was completed, I received an invoice close to R6000. I was charged for 20 cables, over R700 for sundries, which is apparently *****s etc. After researching online, I found this another complaint on Hellopeter about this company, Global Satellite Networks, indicating a pattern of questionable practices. The other reviewer also described the same process.

I was very disappointed with this installer’s service. The installation was done without properly discussing or agreeing on the cost with me beforehand. After the work was completed, I was charged an excessive amount for materials and labour. To make matters worse, materials were used that were not actually required for the setup, which unnecessarily increased the final cost. A professional installer should explain the work, discuss pricing clearly, and get approval before adding extra materials or charges. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I would advise others to confirm all costs and required materials in writing before proceeding with any installation work.
