Metrodigital, A New Cable Service Provider In Nigeria

There is a new digital cable service provider in Port Harcourt and many other parts of Nigeria presently. They show most the channels that make DSTV outstanding: discovery, nat geo, reality, cnn, bbc, fox news, ait, a lot of movie channels, sports channels showing live PREMIERSHIP & CHAMPIONS LEAGUE matches and a lot of many other interesting channels (about 47 channels in all).

The advertised equipment cost is N20,000 and the monthly subscription is N2,900. Dual view decoder is also available.

My questions are

1. How come this relatively new company is able to bring all these juicy channels from the very beginning when some of the bigger players in the market still struggle to show even one of these channels at any given time.

2. How come this company shows all English Premiership matches live when the likes of HITV, DSTV, CTL and others are still battling over rights issue? I understand HITV owns the exclusive right show most of the live premiership matches in Nigeria.

Would it last?, they come and go in a flash!

Sounds too good to be true.
Are you sure about the name chief? I can't seem to find any info about it.

wow, our problems are beginning to get solutions. questions are beginning to have answers. some day, just some day, Satellite TV subscriptions shall crash like hell. Good news from Benn. Hope they imbibe quality into their quantity, unlike our HiTv.

guys, am  using  metrodigital, [in ph], its  quite  good, though  i still prefer dstv to.
but  based on their  rates  n  channels, i rate  them  very  high, they are the  best  compared  to cmtv/hitv/ctl, etc,
if u are in ph, their  office  in  near  artillery  jxn,

but dstv is doing  a  bonanza  now,
45k  plus  6mnths  subscription, 4 dstv  family,
hurry  now  while  the  offer lasts

I live in Asaba too and was almost signing uo for the Metrodigital last week. was at their office, opposite Ogbeogonogo Mkt. Its true they show LIVE Premiership and Champions League matches and have a host of other interesting channels including Nigerian/Lagos channels.  The monthly subscribtion is N3,000 (formely N2,500 bt b/c they started paying to HiTV for premiership games, it was jacked up). The channels here are about 35 and most of them are always available. They also have dual view. Acquisition is about N25,000 in all + one month subscribtion.

I think its really cool for the fact that they also show the Champions League and have some channels not found on HiTV and DSTV. But the limitations are that u cannot use it outside the immediate city and sometimes (like HiTV) the channels are not available - but that is mostly the unimportant ones. Generally, it's ok.

The guys seem like people who will disappear one day so soji.

how wel do they operate, hope say no b com n go

I Like nigeria for one thing, they like to shine eyes before the loose their hard earn money ! lol

guy, we need the website and contact details,

i don't undastand addresses like, behind NEPA junction or beside akara joint,


where is the head office address,

How long will it take Benn to furnish us with details of this "magical" Metrodigital.

Is this an indication of what prospective customers should expect? unreliable!!!

Please Nairaland don't rush, not all that glows is gold, HI TV are the only company that has right to show all the premier league

I didn't know there is cabletv in Naija.  Maybe you mean a satellite tv like DSTV.

I guess they should come over to lagos so that we can atleast discuss with them one by one.
