Hello. My favorite stations are just disappearing from my television. How do I rectify it.
I used to subscribe for Gotv Plus before for 1800, but I decided to subscribe for Standard yesterday via my ATM. At the end of the transaction it was successful, my account was debited accordingly. However my Gotv is yet to be activated, What could be the problem and the way out?
Thanks
Hello Lateef, I wouldn’t know what’s wrong with it or maybe the company has not finalized your transaction or order. I would suggest you reach out to any of the Gotv centers closest to your area so that they can take a look at your account and see what’s going on inside the system. Good luck boss:)
