1. Pensioners packet reconnect

   • Multichoice should shut down and allow other companies to come in and give us people value for money. Stop filling your pockets and ripping the poor who want to also watch good affordable entertainment. Give us the opportunity to choose and pay for our channels that we enjoy watching.

   • Hi agree’ I disconnected my one also is no costumer service! They are not helpful at all! They taking advance, because, they only one a monopoly, to run this service! In South Africa, And they are I think to expensive to see the same Program repeatedly over and over! ???????? And young peoples love Sports!!! Is no available!! Unless you pay over R500-, to see a bit of Soccer! Always, you must pay the full package to see sports! I find really this unbelievable! And no Pensioners benefit! Att all. Dstv is not for me anymore! thanks!! I am Glad now, with this new technology, I have Show-max and Wi-Fi at home Cheaper and you can watch any things you wish!!
     By bye ????????Dstv!! Bye!!!

2. Dstv subscription is way too high that is the reason why they loose so many people . There is no fisvount for pensioners as well. I’m also thinking of canceling my subscription

   • I agree. Too expensive, none stop repeats. Rediculous.

3. I understand that people of 70 years and older can get discount on the premuim package can you please tel me more we are on the package just belowe the pruim bet if we could really get a nice discount we may change to the premuim package . Thank you

   • Does package also provide WiFi connection?

     • What multi choices supposed to do was, allowing clients to pick the channels they want and multi choice charge them afterwards not them Imposing bouquets on peoples ! Because it’s not like peoples are watching all the channels on thé bouquet

       • People must choose what their want because some of the channel are repeating one thing every day

         • True n the old stories.we r tired

         • Allow us to choose channels we want to watch and charge per channel . Also hiking the price of subscription every 6 months is affecting our budgets.

         • Watching just only 4 channels out of my subscription. Other channels are scrap

       • Yes I think you must allow people to choose what their want cos some of ur channels are boring

       • Very true

       • They know all these. The truth is that multi-choice and the cabals in the country who are given them cover will not let that happen, something that can’t happen even in South Africa. So much need to be changed in this country and it is only through a “peaceful” revolution.

       • My point exactly

       • Agree. That’s how it should be.

       • I’m with u 110%

4. Dstv please leave all those fancy word’s & let’s all agree that The ONLY!!! advantage dstv has is the sports content ,, That’s it..

   • And now they not even covering the Indian Cricket I read a few days ago

   • You’ve hit the nail on the head bro. All DSTV has is adverts and using fancy names to attract and maintain customers! We are beyond that by now. Thanks to the many other cheaper & better competitors. Zuku, Startimes and many more. Continue overcharging packages and lose your market share.

   • All we are saying migrate to pay as you watch….

5. DSTV, this is the acme of arbitrary nonsense. Do you think we are fools? Oh, how I wish we have a viable alternative service provider!

   • We need to come together in our respective countries and regions and push FIFA to give Sports license
     to DStv competitors to play EPL,LALIGA, Serie A, UCL, Olympics, WC and other leagues and sports

     • Well spoken bro

     • This is a good idea

   • They are desperate

   • We donut the cabals will not let that happen. Not it would just be a matter of time. Our mumu don too much.

6. You did not mention any costs incurred. What is the monthly cost payable to Multichoice

7. To whom it may concern (CEO Multichoice)
   I have been a loyal subscriber for over 30 years. I am very very disappointed in all your personnel at your call center. Have been struggling for 3 week to enjoy your service. As from 18 March 2023 I have recieved the new explora Ultra. Then all my problems started with my account. I have phone your call center on several times, visit your offices several times. But till now no one can provide any real assistance to sort out my account and subscription. . On 04 March 2023 I have phoned again for assistance. The person told me that a person done it wrong and he will rectify my account and switch my decoder back on. After 2hrs still waiting

   • Also mine done the same it’s almost 3 months now since March multi choice service it’s giving me problem it’s alwayz lose signal each and every 5 mints iv tried to call but they told me the same I really don’t no wat to do my expllora it’s totally out of its mind plz help

8. Getting to expensive, and so many repeats

   • I agree with you, it’s sooo expensive, but we watch the same thing over and over again . They keep repeating movies

     • And all of this for nearly R1000 a month, ridiculous

9. How can anyone make a decision without the details of the package and the cost. Pensioners over 65 should be eligible for a dicount discount. You would improve your sales targets if you were more transparent and.offer REAL DEALS!

   • I agree !

10. We don get alternative ,we football lover we go so leave for good

    • Showmax

11. I cancelled my subscription long ago.
    DSTV only repeats its programs .

12. Star sat or Netflix soon for me can’t stand repeats

13. Since I was 15 year old I watch churk Norris movies now I’m 50 years still watching something niworse

14. As for me I’m done with DSTV. Gotten too expensive when salary is not increasing. Not a football fan so why should I pay so much for channels always repeating programs? And lesser package doesn’t have my preferred channel so I’m done.

15. They created extra sport channels 211 and 212 but the same rugby game is still playing
    at the same time on 201 and 211

16. The increment is too much while salaries haven’t been increased as well.
    Are you telling me in the lame man point of view that, long time subscribers should cancel their subscription? Your update channel offers are also ineligible
    I even want to cancel my subscription and sell my DSTV materials

17. Programs repetition has make multichoice so worst. I will stick to Netflix or showmax .

18. DSTV should now introduce a package that only has SPORT CHANNELS because all these useless movie channels that always and repeatedly keep playing the same shit every day are so damn useless!

    Give us the Sport Channels and you will see how your sales and subscriptions would climb high! Just do that and your sales would be booming

19. How about they allow people to choose channels. They have a whole lot of shit channels that one doesn’t even watch but has to pay for.

    • You have nailed it

20. Iam tired of rising costs of dstv. Hijacking us every year this time it’s worse u are forced to subscribe whether like it or not. The u add ur increases. Iam done with u

21. Yes it’s getting too expensive. Discounts shd be given to pensioners.
    I am on the premium and mostly watch news n 194 n 195. I love tennis and cricket only.
    What is below premium as i need to step down. It’s too expensive

22. You guys should just switch to IPTV. the money u will spend Yearly on Premium Subs, if u use it to buy IPTV Account for a Year, its super Cheap, Plus a bundle plan for a year which is ok as well. The best Deal is u get to watch Premium Latest movies and series and not “repeated” contents everytime

    • Hi sorry what is IPTV?

23. I have the same problem. Since I purchased a new explora my extra view losing signal all the time and when you call the call centre they tell you must get a new decoder for extra view. Also an explora. Then all of sudden signal back on and nothing wrong with decoder,the way they want to make money.

24. Can you please indicate what the So Called New Package Looks like,, Because you advertise stuff without any details, Peter August

25. I also feel da same way, premiums too high, repetition of movies, shows, too much extra money too for extra special channels, poor service at ur col center only one in 100 can give da rite service……it’s really bad.

26. Why can’t you allow us to pick the channels that we want? You repeat the same thing always… even our kids knows those movies and drama by heart because they watch everyday.
    Your premiums are very and I’m going to stop pay Dstv and save my money because showman and Netflix are not that expensive

27. So what happen with Compact. I’m n Pensioner, + can not afford more expense?
    Most stuff is in Zulu or something else than Afr. Or English.
    So in anyway i pay for them + not my language’s

28. DSTV is dead it just hasn’t realized it yet
    Full of repeats
    Only thing it has going for it is super sport

29. My subscription has been hell.I have just given up.There are add ons which you are not made aware of.Im done, seriously I’m done.I was disconnected and I’m told that I must pay for service that was disconnected a long time ago ????. I’m just not prepared to pay for such.Their call centre agents are just useless.Im done.

30. Why must we pay full subscription fee if your tv is most of the time off because of loadshedding your must reduce the fee

31. I’m very disappointed with MultiChoice I have a family package but the way they charge my monthly subscription it’s like I have explora decoder they add channels I never asked I don’t even watch all my channel just this month they charge over R1000 this is madness and I pay my monthly premium but still they stopped my viewing

32. Been a subscriber since DSTV launched however I cancelled my contract last month. I am not missing it in the least. I have a very stable 25meg internet connection. I have Netflix, My Family Cinema & Showmax Pro for the sports. I can stream movies etc so I am not missing DSTV in the least.

33. Am a pensioner and widow have a 579 package spofrts channels always soccer where is the cricket surley some soccer games can be cut not everbody is a soccer fan

34. Dstv is a rippoff. This so called ultra premium package will even be more expensive

35. I am a pensioner I love my sport that’s why I take DStv with all the channels but every year it’s going up it’s to much than I pay for things that’s are repeating and I have to pay a 1000 rand I mean that’s to much

36. I am a pensioner on the premium package I am with DSTV since it started I am tired watching the same stuff over and over I have decided to cancell my subscription after all these years paying that amount for nothing

37. I can’t continue with DStv again
    I’m a big football fan so I moved on to CANAL+. They’re very good more than DStv in terms of sports and it’s very cheap.
    If you’re a football fan you can try the CANAL+.

38. I can’t continue with DStv again
    I’m a big football fan so I moved on to CANAL+. They’re very good more than DStv in terms of sports and it’s very cheap.
    If you’re a football fan you can try the CANAL+. Thanks

39. I tried to upgrade my father-in -law’s premium package, where he is using the Explora to the new Ultra decoder. Only to be told he is over 65 and doesn’t qualify because of his age. So it is ok for DSTV to have received his monthly payments for many many years, but now because he is to old, he doesn’t qualify. Now if that isn’t discrimination against the elderly I don’t know. So they will keep taking his monthly subscription for R994, but because he is over the age, they will not accept his monthly subscription of R999 for 24 months. If I was the owner of this business I would be so ashamed, but that’s only me. You seem not to care to discriminate against the elderly, which is also against our Constitution. Now I understand why people cancel their subscriptions. ViVa DSTV
