Dstv Packages in South Africa are the best remedy to current situation that we are all going through.
If you don’t have anyone to spend time with, you got yourself a loyal friend with MultiChoice .
In this 4 minutes post reading with UAnswer, we take a brief look at DStv packages and prices and of course best DStv channels.
DStv Packages
MultiChoice recently enacted its yearly DStv pricing hike, raising rates for Premium, Compact Plus, and Compact bundles by 1.2 percent to 2.5 percent.
MultiChoice has made many modifications to its channel lineup during the last year.
It canceled SABC Encore, Sundance TV, Disney XD, and Fox Life, and reorganized its cinema channels, launching ESPN and ESPN 2.
With all these other adjustments, it is essential to do DStv packages compare the pricing and available channels of MultiChoice’s DStv bundles to better appreciate their relative worth.
The table below summarizes the monthly pricing and amount of channels in each DStv plan.
The total number of channels does not include the DStv channel (DStv 100), and the price does not include the monthly PVR Access Fee.
DStv Compact Channels
The channels available with a DStv Compact subscription are shown in the table below.
DStv Compact Plus and DStv Premium also have all of these channels.
Showmax is available to DStv Compact members at a 50% discount on the monthly cost (R49 per month).
For an extra R99 per month, they may add M-Net Movies 1, M-Net Movies 2, and fliekNET to their memberships.
