Considering the current tough economic environment consumers are facing, MultiChoice, operator of DStv pay Tv, has made some downward adjustments in its service offerings.

It has reduced the price of DStv Explora decoder, dish and one month Compact subscription from N71,000 to N30,000. It also reduced the DStv Zapper decoder, dish and one month Compact subscription from N18,500 to N12,500.

In addition to these adjustments in favour of consumers, MultiChoice also brought its sports channels – Barclays league, Laliga and Euro 2016 to Compact Bouquet subscribers in all their HD glory, at no extra cost.

Disclosing this to DStv customers yesterday in Lagos, Martin Mabutho, general manager, sales and marketing, told Nigerians that “One of MultiChoice’s key priorities is to put our subscribers’ needs at the heart of everything we do, and since this has been tough economic times for everyone, we realised that our subscribers could have some good news.

“We are excited that we can now deliver the best football action in the world to our Compact subscribers while ensuring that this development doesn’t negatively impact them financially.”

Mabutho further said that SuperSport would launch two new sports channels, SuperSport 11 (DStv channel 231) and SuperSport 12 (DStv channel 232), which will be dedicated to showcasing the EPL and La Liga, respectively, on the DStv Compact bouquet.

This means that all Compact football fans will now be able to enjoy the biggest games of the season, including this Saturday’s match (February 28) on channel SS11 between long-time rivals, Arsenal and Manchester United.

More football excitement continues on SS12 in the Spanish league where Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Luis Suarez are leading what’s possibly the world’s most potent attack for Barcelona this football season. Subscribers will find out if Barçacan claim their 24th La Liga crown against Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid this season. They will also watch as the two-football teams test each other’s mettle on April 3, when they meet in the first El Clasico derby of 2016 at Barça’s Camp Nou.

As part of MultiChoice Africa’s ongoing efforts to improve its products and offering, DStv Compact subscribers, Mabutho said could look forward to even more exciting sport and entertainment this year. “The Euro 2016 tournament, which will kick off on 10 June until 10 July on the new SuperSport channels will keep our football loving subscribers enthralled while they wait for the next season to start in August 2016.”

He said these offers further reiterate MultiChoice’s commitment to providing Nigerians with quality entertainment they can afford.

It would be recalled that in July last year, MultiChoice revamped its DStv Compact bouquet to include over 95 world-class channels at a monthly subscription of N6,000. Some of the new channels include AfricaMagic Igbo, AfricaMagic Urban, BBC Brit, CBeebies, Eva, M-Cityand Zee World.

Only yesterday, MultiChoice reiterated its commitment to customer satisfaction.

It's still a french gift,why they can simply reduce their 14k plus premium subscription to 6000 and why they have to open a new channel?i dont think there is anything special about this offer,its a scam,we don't need new channels

Not enough to make me dump my CTL decoder
