That sounds fair.
I'm a bit worried about the account number that I was given only having 6 digits. Shouldn't there be 9? Hopefully, it's just missing a bunch of leading zeros. 002*** should be 000 002***

No, you're confusing your "customer number" with your "account reference number". It's not the same thing.
You customer number leads with 2 zeros while your account reference number (for payments, etc) leads with between 5 and 7 zeros depending on the number at the end.
So basically, the first person to register would have the reference number 000 000 001 while the thousandth person would be 000 001 000.
In the beginning there was nothing .... which exploded!
Could you officially confirm if Macrovision or other protection will be applied. Will it render my VCR/DVDrecorder/TiVo etc useless? (if so you've just shot yourselves in the foot)
It has already been confirmed that Macrovision has been implemented and as such, recording is not possible without having to do a few cabling workarounds.

That's me out then, I want to use Tivo and I am not shelling out another 900 bucks for a "corrector".
The problem is that I was given a customer number and an account/reference number. Both of them have only 6 digits. I think I'd better try and phone them.
Edit: ...and, of course, I couldn't get through. Well, at least I'll have TopTV for 24 hours. If they expect me to pay a R50 re-activation fee, I will cancel immediately.

Is it just me, or is there a lot of hostile people here?
.
I'm not sure who you mean, but would you be prepared to pay a penalty to a company for their own mistake?
Another Edit: So, I got through to them and they confirmed that they had given me the wrong account/reference number! I would have paid money into TopTV's account with no proof whatsoever that I had paid them! On top of that, I would have probably had to make a second payment + a R50 re-activation "penalty".
When it comes to *my* money, yes, I do get a little hostile.
Anyway, it is sorted now (I hope).![]()
