Why MultiChoice Increased DStv and GOtv Subscription

The company also introduced incentives for customers to cushion the effect of the increase. “To cushion the price adjustment, we have made the following concessions: Customers who pay on or before the due date (April 1, 2022) will be eligible to pay the old price. If they pay consistently on time ( before their due dates) for a period of 12 months, they pay the old price. Customers who pay for 10 months upfront on the new price will get 11th and 12th months free,” it said.
