Penalty of R71.00 for paying 1 month later

<p>My tv licence was due end August. I made a payment of R150.00 because I had unforseen expenses in August. End September I paid R115.00 In the past I always received a letter or SMS to say thank you for your payment. I phoned today and was informed I still owe R62.00. This amount was charged because I paid my licence over two months.</p> <p>I am not going to pay this amount. It is tough times and if the SABC cannot appreciate the fact that I at least paid my account in full and they still want to charge me R71.00 for paying R115.00 late .</p> <p> </p> <p>I dont even watch one program on SABC but I am binbed by Law to pay my TV Licence. It is not my choice I am forced to pay and there is millions of people that dont pay a cent.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Dear Sophia-12,

Your enquiry regarding the admin fee charged for paying your TV licence in two payments dated 1 November 2016 refers.

An admin fee is charged or included when a TV licence is paid off in, installments. This same fee is also charged when an amount of less then the full annual tariff is received which does not include the monthly penalties.

For more information contact Customer Services on *** or email: ***.
