What is the rental period before I can take ownership?
Answer
For each product, next to the price of the product, you will see either 1 or 2 asterisk's ('*'). If a product has one *, that indicates that you would have the option to take ownership of the item after 36 months. If the product has two **, that indicates that you would have the option to take ownership of the item after 24 months. The product is rented to you on a monthly basis (with a 30 day notice period) whereby Teljoy gives you the option to take ownership of the product after a predetermined period stated in the agreement, either 36 or 24 months depending on the product category and contract). Should you not wish to take ownership of the equipment, you can continue the rental on an indefinite basis and continue to enjoy all the benefits of the rental agreement.
Can I really upgrade, downgrade or cancel the agreement & return the unit at any time?
Answer
Yes – if you choose to upgrade or cancel the agreement within the first 6 months, there will be a collection charge of R500. After 6 months, there will be no cost implications if your account is up to date

Account & Payment queries
What is pro-rata and how is it calculated?
Answer
A pro-rata charge is a part charge for a service/unit you used for only part of a month. The pro-rata charge is calculated based on the daily rental amount multiplied by the number of days from delivery until the 1st of the month. Please note that if the pro-rata charge is greater than the rental amount, the charge could include the 1st month’s rental.
My bank account was debited with the incorrect amount
Answer
- When you receive a new unit in your home, the amount charged may have been more than the monthly rental due to the pro-rata amount being included. A pro-rata charge is a part charge for a service/unit you used for only part of a month. The pro-rata charge is calculated based on the daily rental amount multiplied by the number of days from delivery until the 1st of the month.
