What is this one saying?

Don't CTL and Metro air all sports channels here in Nigeria, even bein on their respective bouquet?

Better shut that your dirty gutters!!!

You don't need to insult anyone here, just be civil for once.

Theres a reason ctl and metro has not ventures into the Lagos market and they don't even make noise. Lagos is the biggest market in West Africa so for ctl and metro to respect themselves and remain in the south east and some parts of south south for over 8yrs now without trying to venture into Lagos shows there is illegality there and also shows why dstv choses to ignore them.

I have always been a proponent of TSTV, but it's becoming obvious now that something is fishy somewhere.

November' ist don come and go yet nothing yet.upon all the initial hype and gra gra.
Tstv shouldn't mess up oo. From one excuse to another. Assuming they did their homework well at least by now Dstv and gotv would have been feeling the heat little by little.
I said this before, they shouldnt allow this ovation to die down or make a silly mistake this period they are still starting or else Dstv and others will not only mock them but send them to their early grave too.

.
But they are already on air n in the market. What else do you need? I think what they need is a strategic preventive n contingency for events like the recent hack.

Nigerians see this as an attempt by a South African company to mess up a Nigerian company that has the potential to overtake them, will you cheer the South African football team over the Nigerian football team
NIGERIANS SUPPORT TSTV, REMEMBER THE PEOPLE KILLED BY SOUTH AFRICANS IN SOUTH AFRICA...LETS GIVE DSTV A BLACK EYE!

Even tho it's illegal I will still buy it I love illegal things like mòfédaku

likewise

E be like say na CanalSat plus GOtv do make sense.

4400 plus 1900

They should have seen this coming and employed hackers to protect their site and systeme, after all due to the billions of Naira banks have been losing yearly,most of them have now hired hackers as staff.From time to time,these guys attempt to hack into the systems of their banks to determine their cyber security integrity so as to know what and what to upgrade

What you've just stated is a clear example of "red teaming"

DSTV dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

They should consult HITV strong men as strategist staffs..

MaziOmenuko:
Me ayam not understanding. How were you hacked just few days in existence? This begs the question of how secured your servers are. What stops the hackers from ending your operations once and for all instead of just a pop-up message? Abi na bobo una dey bobo us?

of course they are lying na.


they should just show us an MOU or contract excerpt showing they are authorised by BEIN to broadcast the matches.

I suspect DSTV in this mess. God will not allow you. Our own will succeed. U can pack your loads and go back to or South Africa if you can't face the competition. And we imploy our government to look into this if they can. Not that one foreign company will come and be frustrating ours here

vengertime:
DSTV at work

No doubt. If they are broadcasting the channel illegally, this won't be the best way available to bein to make a statement ... This is purely the work of saboteurs

Hack? I don't buy that

Dstv would do everything to stop the operation. We will send Dstv packing

*TSTV Illegal Viewing Brouhaha*


A LOT has been going on behind the scene to ensure TSTV doesn't become a reality. From internal issues that are not meant for public consumption to issues of letters and screen shots against TSTV flying all over the Internet. 

While TSTV Africa was test-running their signals with the free promo decoders distributed just 3 days ago, hackers waited for when it was time for the Arsenal match, took down TSTV signal for 30 minutes and inserted the *"You are viewing Bein Sports content illegally via TSTV Nigeria"* and sent it online for circulation. The entire team was frustrated and awake all night to figure out where the hacking was coming from. 

So BEIN Sports even know the location and company airing their channels illegally and cannot Institute a law suit? THINK!! 

First, it was a disclaimer letter from BEIN Sports that was circulated last month and now this viewing phony message when TSTV finally went live. *Why TSTV sports channels? Who is only interested in TSTV sports channels if not detractors?* Are other TSTV channels not showing? Why the 2 BEIN sport channels? They even told BEIN Sports that TSTV don't have a license to operate in Nigeria sef. That they have been blacklisted by the NBC. *That's the height of desperation. Let's be wise.*

Oh well... TSTV detractors should know one thing, that no matter the pressure and online propaganda to bring down TSTV with regards to BEIN Sports, the management of TSTV would never disclose the agreement they have with BEIN Sports because it's a non-disclosure agreement. They won't breach their part of the agreement. Know this! 

If TSTV is airing BEIN illegally, BEIN Sports should make the move and sue. Let BEIN announce it on their official website and social media handles. BEIN Sports is a Qatar company and they have the all money and resources to fight TSTV. So I don't understand why the illegal messages aren't coming from their official channels but from some Nigerian social media handles. Funny... 

Therefore, if you don't see these messages on their website, then disregard letters, screen shots and fake Qatar tel numbers on display in a time when anybody can have a UK phone number and the person is actually chilling somewhere in Ikotun. Phew! 

Finally, Nigerians should know that the management of TSTV isn't selling decoders so you can't say they are defrauding you rather their decoders are FREE for now. So if the business crumbles at this early stage of take off, the young CEO of TSTV, Echefu Bright has nothing to lose. He would move on to another business and recover his loss from there. He's been doing well with his Africa Health Television Channels. Nigerians are the ones who have everything to lose as an alternative entertainment platform and job opportunities would be lost! 

Everyone working at Green Glass House would be sacked. That your friend, relative, spouse or neighborhood that would have been employed by TSTV or as an accredited dealer would lose that opportunity of having an income or additional income. Some of you who would later want to provide program contents will never get to see that opportunity . Let wisdom guide us. Every company that adds an additional number to the number of employed Nigerians is important even if it's akara selling business, let's support it. 

Whatever digital television services provider you want to stay with, do so without grudges and support more alternatives to spring up and give you more value for your money. 

*I give salute to the entire team at TSTV. Well done and good luck.*

this is the type of bullshit crashing ponzi sites write. Just saying from experience

rottennaija:
Below is an interesting comment

scam

BiyiBabs17:
You spoke well initially but the part at the end where you are talking of them employing Nigerians is wrong. Fine, there's scarcity of job out there but also we are not begging tstv to come and rescue us. So the benefit is a mutual thing, and for ur info tstv has everything to loose.

The comment was not mine. I saw it in the second page and felt most people would be properly informed with it. The poster seems to know more about what happened.

Then too, while beneficial for both sides, Nigerians needs alternatives. We need competition in the sector. If you don't need it, I do and I know millions of other Nigerians do. And yes, it will provide jobs, both direct and indirect

As if TStv is free to air, the same business vested hype etisalat, Hitv and others unsuccessful folks made. Have read the buiness strategy of TStv, it just like 'pay as you go' mobile data and monthly limited data subscriptions, immediately you exhaust your bundle whether in a day or two days thats all. Yes for buiness, organizations, institutions and companies TStv could be a good option to Dstv on suscription plan but for family use could be a bad choice except one that will manage and monitor television viewership like the way call airtime is managed on telecoms. Anyway, Nigerians are rational enough to make choices amongst all the pay-tvs.

"There was a hack into our system. We are working on resolving the breach. The services should be back soon." - TSTV

Those hackers are still a learner..... They forgot to spell beIN sport very well.. Instead they spelt it as BEIN sport ..... Any way let me tell you.. Its beIN and not BEIN...

AK481:
it is finished for TSTV,all facts seems to run away from them.



https://www.premierleague.com/news/60907

what exactly does this prove?

texazzpete:


Those ARE illegal...but they are small fry.

Kwese sports had to sign a deal with the Premier league to air free to air football, but restricted to just ONE EPL game per weekend. They do NOT show more than one game per week.

https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/03/31/econet-rivals-dstv-to-air-epl-for-free/

A wannabe major player like TSTV will not go unnoticed by DSTV, the Premier League and beIN. Their streams are illegal and can be stopped.


This is common sense. You can choose to accept it or join these uneducated louts accusing voices of reason of being DSTV employees.

its funny how you claimed to be educated more than others yet you don't know how tv right works.


Supersport(multi choice) having exclusive right to show epl barred tstv from showing epl, but that doesn't mean they can't cut a deal with other media houses that already have the right to broadcast epl. Unless there is some hidden rules that forbid such which I'm not aware of.

That's why the likes of ctl and trend can show epl without anyone disturbing them.


Lemme put it in simple term;

Let's say, NTA gets exclusive right after paying tonnes of money to broadcast buhari's media chat, or african cup of nation.

Channels tv cannot broadcast that programme directly from aso rock but they can cut a deal with nta to allow them show buhari's media chat.

Then you see channels tv linking up with nta for that particular program.

If tstv decides to create a channel like supersport to show epl directly without linking up with bein in sport, that would be completely illegal.

I placed a call through bein sports today, they told me that they do not have any agreement in place for any of their TV stations to be aired in Nigeria,particularly they do not have any agreement with any Nigerian partner.

I challenge us all to call

Na lie, they gat no fucking partnership with beIN company

MrBigiman:


Lies that TSTV trade on. The real owners of TSTV are Arabs using a Nigerian font just like Etisalat. When push comes to shove, then the truth will be revealed.

But, we are not talking about owners here...you maybe right, the real owners or majority shareholders maybe arabs or whoever.

My point is still valid, that it is a brand new company with no prior network/system of their own.

This is getting even more embarrassing.

Now you're confusing yourself. First you admit Supersport has an exclusive license. Now you claim 'other media houses' may be the ones licensing content to TSTV.

CTL and Trend probably get away with it because they are relatively small fry.

And in this case, Channels will merely re-broadcast NTA's footage. Channels cannot source footage from anywhere else.

This is so straightforward that I'm stunned how you don't get the simple concept.

SuperSport has EXCLUSIVE license with the Premier League for the EPL in Nigeria. No matter if TSTV goes and signs whatever they want with beIN, beIN have ZERO right to air in Nigeria, either directly or with a partner. They'll never sign such a deal, since it exposes them to litigation.

chei bros! It is actually you that dont know how rights work!
Rights are sold on territory basis, beIN has the right for MENA( Middle east and north africa ) Dstv for sub sahara and south Africa and the rights are exclusive, none can infringe on the other's territory.

Before I start writing I feel I should put out a disclaimer up front.
Disclaimer: I am neither a TSTV dealer/fan nor DSTV spy/agent/etc. The content of this write-up is select reader and should not be pickup by j*ckass as a propaganda message (for either TSTV or DSTV)

I am just a guy seeking clarification on some queries

We are all aware of the info that pop up during the gunners match (of all the matches it could have, it occurred during Arsenals' match. Like pple need another reason to h*te gunners).

The tstv broadcast was FTA meaning anybody in Nigeria and West africa region with a decent decoder could pickup this signal and watch(sure Ghana like free stuff as much as the next country). If I kw this, I am certain beIN does too, why would the message then be addressed to Nigeria specifically and not just stop at "u are viewing this channel illegally if you are outside the MENA region"?
Before pple start spitting out BS and attacking me, let me inform you that I am in a position to kw that beIN does not care about pple broadcasting their channels illegally (if dats what tstv did). The only people who would is DSTV (if indeed they have the exclusive right). What beIN care about is legal action for broadcasting outside their region. If that's the case the information pop up must be a legal statement and would never hv mentioned Nigeria (any lawyer with half a brain can confirm this). They like generic statements that they can wiggle their way out of in case of lawsuit.

Any serious International business from Coca-Cola, to DSTV to TSTVAfrica to Julius Berger to Glo to MTN to beIN would tell you they are a brand. This simply means from logos to official materials, statements, language and styles would always be consistent. (please go back and read again how I wrote their names). Nobody in any capacity in this organisations would misspell or write their names in any other way/format from the above. Why would then beIN issue a disclaimer and manage to miswrite their name (BEIN)?

Satellite signals are heavily encrypted signals emphasis on heavily. Hacking one requires serious skillset, usually not one you pickup from studying in a university or just stumble upon. With that said who would have a reason to hack TSTV? Perhaps DSTV, Kwase or Startimes(had to include them just to check all the boxes). Even if all these organisations have the capacity and motive to "hack" TSTV
why would they? From a strategic point of view they have nothing to gain by doing so and everything to loose if caught. Let's assume for a second they did hack TSTV and were caught, TSTV would not need setup a media business again as they would own DSTV from the resulting lawsuit. If all I have bn reading in the media over the past month on TSTV not having the "right" is to be believed all DSTV needs to do from a strictly legal and business perspective is to wait for TSTV to lunch and operate for about a month. Then sue them for damage in the company's worth (own tstv) and punish disloyal customers by slightly hiking their sub and decoder prices (making more money).

The main question is if TSTVAfrica is the real deal only time will tell.

EvilMetahuman:
what exactly does this prove?

It proves that ;

1. Super sport has the exclusive right to show epl in sub Saharan Africa
2. Bein has the exclusive right to show epl in Middle East and North Africa.

Tstv can not buy any right from bein to trespass on dstv territory,what stop dstv from selling to bein competitor in the Middle East?its an infringement.
