I pay for my monthly satellite TV subscription with a bank transfer and for some obscure reason I forgot to pay it this month. I was still watching the World cup Cricket tournament, when a message popped up, saying that my account was in the arrears and they blocked my viewing.

I immediately logged into my internet Banking and checked my payment history and realized that I skipped that payment for some reason, so I made the payment and thought I would wait for a hour or two and then resume viewing. Noooot!

8 HOURS passed, I phoned the company and they informed me that the payment is not reflected on their system yet, so I waited another 4 hours and phoned them again.

A whole 21 hours later the payment went through and I could continue viewing, but the match I wanted to see was finished.  Angry

If I paid with Bitcoin, this same payment would have taken less than 20 minutes at most, but unfortunately this Satelite provider does not accept Bitcoin payment for this service.  Angry

Oh that's happening in here too.If some how got the services.We can't say when will they reconnect again even after the bill paid.Asking reference number,time of payment and many more.Its horrible.If your satellite provider does not accept Bitcoin payment as payment.Try an app who accept bitcoin and pay via that.(Most of the e-wallet apps supporting bitcoin) that's easy.Because banking payment systems are slower than any paying system.
