DStv, GOtv Subscription Prices Reduced: Multichoice Bows to Pressure

Multichoice Succumbs, Readjusts Dstv, GOtv Subscription Prices

MultiChoice revises DStv and GOtv subscription prices for Nigerian customers after a court order, reducing fees for various packages, including Premium, Compact+, Confam, Compact Bouquet, Yanga, Padi, GOtv Super+, Max, Joli, and Jinja, effective June 16, 2024.

For Nigerian customers of DStv and GOtv, MultiChoice has revised its subscription fees in response to a court decision directing it to stop raising prices.

The corporation, which had reported a reduction in its subscriber base in Nigeria that resulted in the loss of over a million members, had promised to contest the Competition and Consumer Protection Tribunal's verdict in Abuja.

MultiChoice has updated its company apps as of Sunday, June 16, 2024, to reflect the readjustment.

The changes mean that subscribers of DStv's Premium plan will now pay N29,500 instead of N37,000, and those of the Compact+ package will now pay N19,800 instead of the previous N25,000.

Confam bundle users will now pay the former amount of N7,400 per month instead of N9,300, and Compact Bouquet subscribers will pay N12,500 instead of the N15,700 they were previously paid.

Customers who subscribe to the Yanga package will pay the previous rate of N4,200 instead of the new rate of N5,100, and customers to the Padi package will pay the old price of N2,950 instead of N3,600.
