  1. Can't say that I'm noticing much difference with my NordVPN to be honest. Added to that, they actually have servers in South Africa, so it's not like it's routing to the EU/US, back, and then to wherever it's supposed to go.
  2. Quickly had a look on our online DSTV.com profile, looks like you're able to "disconnect" your package, but I'm unsure about whether this is a cancellation of your package.
  3. Holy crap. Thanks for sharing this.

    Mate, Dorna might manage MotoGP (and WSBK just FYI, not the Italians like you've stated), but they are owned by Bridgepoint Capital, which is headquartered in the UK. So maybe write to them and find out why there is no race at Silverstone? Plus, they are still figuring out logistics of hosting races at COTA, Termas, Chang and Sepang. Maybe you should be thankful that we're actually going to get some racing this year, even though there is repetition at some tracks. Maybe the Spanish government are so inclined to assist financially as they were likely going to lose some races next year (i.e. Catalunya which is only hosting one event). Maybe many of the teams are based in Spain and it makes the logistics a lot easier. But wait!

    100%, it has nothing to do with the above.
  6. Which one?

    I stand corrected then, thanks! Or giving someone else another year to consider retirement...
  8. Well I mean, I also have a broker, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm still being charged interest each month. March has been reversed though, in fairness, but the same thing happened at the end of May, again.
  9. So around 4 years ago I kinda fell out of love with my own motorcycle(s), but I never could get it over my heart to get rid of them. So they were put into storage at my mom's place. After the initial lockdown was lifted I thought it might be a good idea to get the Trumpet up and running again, this is the result of a few weekend's work: The amount of joy in that moment was ridiculous, until I discovered the fuel line is leaking and Triumph wants R1600 for a new one

    I also think MM93's deal was done a long time before AM73's deal was on the table?

    Follow the money. My suspicion is that Pol is bringing massive sponsorship with him. KTM must be so effed off at the moment. They're also losing Jorge Martin (Moto2) to Ducati it seems. They've invested a lot into these riders, only to get abandoned. Honestly though, if Brad got an offer from HRC we'd all be shouting at him to take it, so I get it.

    Silly season is in full swing without a wheel being turned! I did NOT expect this Espargaro to HRC move at all.

    You're 100% correct on the 4-year deal part, but he's already spent the first two of those four in Moto2.
  14. Yeah, nah.
  15. Ja so this is still not resolved, and they've AGAIN under-collected by about R400 this month. And then I reply to the above mail quoted, and get a "this mailbox is not monitored" response. Ridiculous.
  16. I'm jealous.
  17. I take it back. Season 3 was a waste of time. They could (and should) have stopped at the end of Season 1, it was the perfect ending. Edit: This is a pretty good read on Season 3. If you are doubting Westworld, and haven't yet watched it at all. Watch Season 1, but then stop. Season 1 was perfect in its own right.
  18. Dammit.
  19. Hamilton to Ferrari next year. You heard it here first!
  20. Hi Mr. Ras Thanks for contacting us about your debit order. We tried contacting you on XXX, with no success. (They called once, it didn't ring and I just got a missed call SMS) We are aware of a debit order issue that affected a small number of our clients. Their debit orders ran for an amount less than their chosen full statement balance leading to interest charges. We know that this was an error and we will refund the relevant interest charges in full. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused
  21. 11 days and I've followed up twice and I have had no response. Such a fun time dealing with banks.
  22. I can also confirm that my cash backs have now been paid out as Miles, and not into the Vitality Savings account.
