This is a misdirection. Startimes plan to increase the subscription rate but the focus of the article is on an obscure channel they planned to add.

Startimes is really lovely... they are trying with all the channels available on their station to be sincere. Multichoice is overrated here in Nigeria.

The payment should not be charged daily but per second of one's viewing duration. This is because we don't have steady power supply in this country.

I hope this is true.

Because there was no where in the write up that the Startime representative made mention of PAY AS YOU GO. It was only the guardian reporter saying he said, without quoting is word for us on pay as you go.

Read where they talked about daily subscription

I thought DSTV said pay-as-you-go was impossible to implement....Always thought �� those guys(DSTV)were thieves...

Don't you know that DStv represent South Africa in camouflage of xenophobia in our soil.

They are known as Telephobia, bullying and reaping us off all in the name of broadcasting premier league games.

This is what we have been expecting from DStv for so many years.

But they would not do it, who watched startime?

We need DStv to follow suit or else we would have to dispose their decorders. We are customers and we have the right to avoid unnecessary charges.

Who watched Startimes? I do

DSTV can't compete with StarTimes.

StarStimes is owned by Chinese and they are experienced with the tech.
They are one of the best in Asia.

They will kick Multichoice out

Is that so?

Startimes is trying though with their HD decoder/ combo.

If you use the SD decoder, you will hate their picture quality but with HDMI cable on the HD decoder, there is big difference, almost like Dstv.


The HD decoder has ordinary AV ports too.
I almost threw away the HD decoder when I used the AV ports until I tried the HDMI port and I changed my mind.

Lies! Lies!! Lies!!!
First of all Startimes has always proclaimed to operate pay-as-you-go bouquet but try to pay for it on any of their payment platforms INCLUDING their offices and their operatives will tell you it is impossible except you pay for the complete one month.
I am saying this because I once tried to pay for ONLY one week because of the Europa league matches and was told by a Startimes customer care operative that it was IMPOSSIBLE. I ended up subscribing for a month.

The second issue I have with Startimes is the payment for a bouquet can ONLY be made at their registered office or at the premises of their registered agents. You can not pay with your bank application!

Thirdly Startimes have subtly increased their fees like Dstv but with extremely POOR content masquraded it behind a non existent pay as you go bouquet.

And before anybody comes at me I wish to state that I subscribe to both Dstv and Startimes and I regard both platforms as cheating blood sucking platforms that do NOT provide subscribers with what they promise in any way!

Nice concept!

But get telemundo, ZEE world, current Hollywood and others (like jumong them) movie channels

Then you are talking business, anything to kick that exploiters called GOTV out!

Can you imagine I had to pay N2560 per month on top wetin

Still the channels no complete oooooo

Most times light no go dey for days, who will bear the cost

Plus their customer care is nothing to write home about

I wonder why we cannot have an indigenious digital TV, it feels as if we are still in the colonial era undecided

very irritating i b dey stomach d matter.
