Nigerians can fight over nonsense.

DSTV is a private business and can fix prices as they want. The protest should be against the Nigerian government that aids and abets criminal monopoly by not taking action to create an environment for healthy competition in the sector.

Sorry Nigerians, until you wake up, you will keep getting fkcd by this company where the sun don't shine.

Can you share your knowledge about this?


I have a Technician friend who had told me I was spending so much on DSTV. He advised I buy a Free-to-air satellite dish. I asked him how it worked and how much it would cost and he said it would cost me roughly 12k to buy and install at my place and that a dish would give me access to over 100 channels. I gave him the money and he bought the dish. After the installation, we discovered I had access to 147 channels. He then told me I could get so much more if I bought yet another dish and got the two connected. I immediately gave him money for another dish and he bought it and combined the two and the number of channels I had access to seemed endless. Please note, you don't get to watch any terrestrial television channel. Everything you get is international. Just go to where brand new Electronics are sold, ask them if they have Free-to-air dish and they'd explain more to you.

Someone I know bought 2 dishes and got them installed just before the lockdown, here in Abuja. The guy spend 15k for everything including installation. He said he had well over 350 channels on.

Why can't NCC stop DSTV/GoTv from cheating Nigerians?

We've said it times without number that the South African company should embrace "Pay as you go" system of billing just like it is in SA and other sane climes.

Why increase tariff when people hardly get value for the money they pay. This rubbish has to stop.

I think the question should be: Why can't our government stop cheating us.

ST Kids
Toonami
Nickelodeon

Hi, I am interested in this bit of information.
I checked 'cutting the cord' out in Netflix and it's a whole lot of information, hardware and all. You may please do a YouTube video and drop the link, or write an explainer blog post.

Thanks!

its not rocket science bro...some youtube vids will just make it look cumbersome but in actual reality it is not...all you will need is

an android tv box(this i have...bought it from china when everything was ok) or android tv(this i dont know much about cause i dont have it)

and then the apk or stbemu you will need to stream all the contents you want..

there are many free service you can try like mobdro and the rest but i don't know if there are some dstv channels there

stable and fast internet...cause without it don't even bother

cause thats where it all balls down to...if the internet is crap you will be frustrated...i can tell because i have experienced it first hand.

netflix servers and youtube servers are not the same as other iptv service providers...that much you should know by now(cant go int too much

detail here)

there is this guy on youtube...you can check his page...he sells the iptv package for 12 dollars a month 10k channels

very worth the price...any channel in the world you want its there...sports and movies also but i must say this again...your internet has to be

topnotch or else dont even bother

the one i am using now is 10$ for 3 months has all the super sport and movie magic and action movies channel u want...

what else do i need dstv for....

the difference between the one i am using and guy on youtube is that one purely high definition(HD) and the other has some hd channels too

hence the reason why i am continually singing better internet connection...

the guys name on youtube is honestfred look him up...if you are satisfied with his content you can proceed to do business with him...he uses

paypal for his transaction so you know...anymore info you need let me know
