TV license verification to much work.

I went to Pick & Pay Southgate yesterday 06/01/2016 to purchase a new television. I was told within a few seconds not even a minute that my tv license is expired and that they cannot assist me further as they have called the SABC. This I find very strange as who at the sabc has given them that information within a second.<br> <br> I did not receive my latest license card, the post office has been on strike for more then half of last year, where does Mapule and Kenny stay.<br> <br> I just went into the sabcs website today and find that may next payment due is R265.00, no arrears.<br> <br> Further to the above I have just both 2 television sets from Game in December 2015.<br> I just need to mention that Game has a very efficient process in place maybe you should do some research.<br> <br> This is my sabcs license number: ***2
