The cell companies just laughed that one off.

    Problem is most things with the CPA will first have to be proven in court. Don't see people hiring an attorney over airtime, that would've happened long ago, because its always been a ripp off even before the CPA

    My farther. In fact, he is probably the only guy in SA that has a pvr (around R50 p/m) linked to only the free channels with DSTV (R30 p/m) -he says he's happy with his package and just wants to fast fwd through adverts!

    I do not really mind paying the SABC fee - yes I do know a lot get's wasted - but I do watch survivor and amazing race - and occasionally a movie. For around R25 p/m it's not the end of the world and low down in my "taxes that I hate" list.
