PDC TV service is the worst, rant pt.2
As you may have read my rant about the new PDC TV website and PDC service part 1... it only has gotten worse...
2 weeks after I posted this one, I got a mail which said this:
"I completely understand how frustrating this ongoing issue can be, especially after you’ve already paid for your subscription. We’re here to help and want to make sure you have clarity on what’s happening.
I’d like to share a bit of context that may help clarify what you’re experiencing. PDC TV recently transitioned to a new payment merchant. Because of this change, we’re currently only able to view payments that were processed through the new merchant’s system. This may be why your previous subscription isn’t appearing on our end.
Our relevant team has carefully reviewed all the information you provided, along with their backend data. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to locate an account connected to the payment you made.
To move forward, the best next step would be to coordinate directly with your bank or financial institution. They’ll be able to review the transaction with you in detail and, if necessary, help dispute the charge. Once the refund is processed, we strongly recommend resubscribing through the current system to ensure uninterrupted access to PDC TV.
We truly appreciate your patience throughout this process and the opportunity to support you. If there’s anything else we can clarify or assist with while you coordinate with your bank, please don’t hesitate to reach out."
Why in the hell would I need to contact my bank to ask them to refund the transaction if PDC TV is the one who made this hell of a problem? I still called my bank and this is the same exact thing they said.
So I mailed PDC TV once again (for the 10th time) that this didn't quite help and that they needed to fix it.
2 weeks later I got the same old f*cking mail I first got... they don't even read the emails...:

I even get days after this mails to f*cking to review the customer support and give them a rating.
What the hell do I need to do next? Mail them again? Wait 2 weeks and get the same message AGAIN?
This is so stupid, considering the PDC is the 'head' of the darting industry...
