Just as we told you that as of June, MultiChoice Nigeria will raise its subscription fee for all DStv packages and some packages will be cancelled.
Well, earlier today, DStv sent SMS messages to all her subscribers informing them of the new price rate taking effect in a few weeks.
According to the text directed to customers, effective from 1 June 2020 7.5% VAT will be applied to all DStv packages… meaning you are going to be paying higher prices as seen below;
New DSTV Prices Effective from June 1st:DSTV Padi: N1800 to N1850
DSTV Access: N2000 to N2150
DSTV Yanga: N2500 to N2565
DSTV Family: N4000 to N4300
DSTV Confam: N4500 to N4615
DSTV Compact: N6800 to N6975
DSTV Compact +: N10,650 to N10,925
DSTV Premium: N15,800 to N16,200For GOtv Users, here are the ChangesGOtv Max: N3200 to N3280
GOtv Jolli: N2400 to N2460
GOtv Jinja: N1600 to N1640
GOtv Lite: N400 to N410
My advice is if you can let go of your DStv for now, please do and if you don’t mind the new price increase, then you can continue subscribing.
To those who can’t continue paying that exorbitant prices on subscription packages, Netflix is here to the rescue; the subscription is cheap and doesn’t consume much data if your device is well optimized.
In my opinion, this is not the best time for DStv to increase its subscription price, knowing fully well that a lot of households are running short of finance or perhaps struggling to make ends meet.
