    Cancelling your TV licence if you no longer own a TV in South Africa

    Thanks for the responses guys, I see why no one wants to pay. I also posted a question in another similar thread and i think im on board with not even wasting my time trying to do the right thing, not with these bafoons in power anyways...

    I am done with SABC! Who can remove my Tuner?

    Thanks, I see now why lots of people just dont pay and I am agreeing, sabc is shady. I am happy to support anyone who is legit and provides a service i use, tv license is like taxes, you pay and get nothing of value, not the tax payers anyways....

    Cancelling your TV licence if you no longer own a TV in South Africa

    I am unemployed, they sent debt collectors which was low even after saying I am unemployed. They send about 5-10 sms's a day, middle of the night, early morning, randomly anytime. They use different numbers, I block one but get a message from another. I also don't want to risk my name because...

    Cancelling your TV licence if you no longer own a TV in South Africa

    Hello all I want to know if anyone did a tuner removal? When I look at their affidavit it looks like they are not giving that option about tuner removal, they use words like television which probably needs to be clearly defined as well as I understood it to mean vision(vision) from far(tele)...

    MTN quietly throttling fixed-LTE products

    Adding my rant here about Mtn 5g bs. Since 2 weeks ago i am constantly at 30mbps up and down. I am well under my full speed cap. Before this i was well over 100mbps. How i figure that i am being throttled is when i do a speed test, it spikes to well over 100mbps and almost immediately is...

    Outdoor Solar Geyser Blankets

    Hi Stacey, I have found nothing. I also chatted to the guys but the explanations are usually it keeps your geyser warm and works very well, not much else, lol. Foil does insulate fairly well, for example the medical blankets used to keep patients warm like those "space blankets" are effective...

    Would you consider emigrating if the NHI is introduced in South Africa?

    My issue is tax and incompetency. We have a terrible healthcare, education and security systems in the country. Call it what it is, a disaster. We then as tax payers, in order to correct these failings to improve our life standards, we pay again to private healthcare, security and education...

    Hadeda Ibis ("Har-Dee-Dar") Getting rid of a pest.

    yep and easy for you to say otherwise right because you are so righteous. Maybe i can try one more time to help you understand better my grievances and perhaps get my point across. These birds where never that much in my area nor even in Jhb 10-15 years ago. I had a much better eco system with...

    Hadeda Ibis ("Har-Dee-Dar") Getting rid of a pest.

    I'm sorry for the hadeda fans here but they are as welcome on my property as much as rats are and parktown prawns are to you... They cost me money, are a complete nuisance and their population is rising exponentially in my area.... There used to be owls around and now there are non anymore...

    Hadeda Ibis ("Har-Dee-Dar") Getting rid of a pest.

    I am no fan of these annoying birds, and i totally agree, they are as useful as a politician, make a lot of useless noise. Jokes aside I have probably more than 30 in my area, they are ridiculously noisy all times of the day and night. They disturb your sleep, your meetings if you work from...

    Outdoor Solar Geyser Blankets

    Hi guys I have an outside geyser and am looking to put a blanket around it. After some shopping around, I am not to happy with the products I have found mainly because of the design. I see that they are all foil covered blankets with foam or something inside. My problem is with the foil, I fail...

    Rain Routing/Throttling Issues

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I will not be using Rain, too much unknowns and complexities. Will probably stick with prepaid Telkom LTE, its faster and simpler than Rain for my required purposes.
