Please does any one know if there is zee tv and telemundo on starttimes? I would like to change to startimes, but I have folks that are addicted to these two channels.

DSTV is a matter of time before you guys become irrelevant.

i am not a sports freak and i am a documerntary and news freak that is why i love startimes. I enjoy BBC, Doc and it is very clear, it doesnt skip and i am not even using an antenna

MCS, NTA SPORTS AND EURO SPORTS ARE THERE, YOU ALSO WATCH CHELSEA TV

dayjee:
Very good, But they should include sports and show us European matches and we will abandon DSTV for good.

Ask those your folks,
Which channels were they watching before repetitive soaps telemundo and zeetv?

Those two too will pass!

I have Startimes too and am really enjoying the viewing i really don't miss DSTV at all. i recently brought down my dish is not that i don't have money but am just tired of them. all my favorite program i still watch them on FOX Star E1 and Star One then i also watch TLC and mixed with all their documentary channel music stations they are the best at the moment i don't care for football as far as i get to watch all my favorite series and program i don't care now they are introducing the iroko channel better time awaits us.

do they have a yoruba film channel like dstv ?

There's not much to be excited about....
DSTV's hike in subscription fee is also a marketing strategy...
same as Startime's reduction in fee.
Its just a case of positioning....dstv moving to the upscale market for the elites, while others are targeting the mass market.
There is no WAY these smaller guys will give u the same contents as dstv at low prices.

Op, your post is highly misleading, Startimes have in fact increased their subscription rates. This is from their website:

By May 1, we will launch new interesting channels and will update the existing bouquets with these channels. They are AMC Series, Iroko Play, Iroko Plus and ST Zone. AMC movies and Wap TV will then move to Basic bouquet; Classic bouquet will have Iroko Play and AMC series, Iroko Plus will also be introduced into Unique bouquet while other new channels will be available on all bouquets. While, the new bouquet price will be N1200 for Basic, N2400 for Classic and N3600 for Unique bouquet, which will be effective from April 18

The Subscription that was reduced is that of Starsat (I'm guessing due to low patronage):

We would also like to introduce Startimes satellite TV to you, which has 100+ channels with HD decoder and more local contents. We also have a Nova bouquet on Startimes satellite TV, which has 35+ channels and cost only N600, the Smart bouquet with 85+ channels will be reduced from N3000 to N1800, for Super bouquet you only need to pay N3600 to enjoy 117+ channels which is N4500 before. What an amazing reward?This adjustment will be effective from May 1.

Don't mind him. How peeps cook up a lie outta an original story. I got the message and when I saw his, I started wondering if the message I received earlier was a kinda mischief from the sender

i have always said it; Startimes is better anyday. i dont care about sports anyway. All our South African firms are thieves.

is high time I turned my back at DSTV, STARTIMES,GOTV....... and face ma, GP

My folks are addicted to those channels. I just went to the startimes site, it seems they have Star Novella E1 which can replace Telemundo and Zee Cinema (and also Star Plus, StarGold and Bollywood TV) can replace zeetv. I would be making the switch once my DSTV subscription expires.

THEIR SERVICE DEY LIMITED AND A DON'T WANT TO MOUNT ANY DISH LIKE SEY A WANT COLLECT RAIN WATER . upgrade and I shall be part of this.

12month:
Right now I don't knw which one to choose Gotv- 1800 or startimes-1800.

Don't waste ur money. Gotv delete channels with reckless abandon. I have both but l will abandon Gotv when my current subscription ends.

Dygeasy:

Oga, for 14k premium bouquet apart from live English premiership (which is mostly on weekends) Dstv has no serious content. You can get more content for less with Startimes and other payTV for lesss.

#team metro. We in PHC are flexing metro. We just 3500 u get to watch EPL, Serial A, spanish leaque and bundesliga plus ottther sweet movie channel

is startimes a Nigerian company . if yes then i would get 1

Samilo88, please do you get all the channels from Startimes when you pay for the Unique Bouquet which is N3000 per month? I am considering switching from DSTV to Startimes.
