The price increases take effect on 1 September 2023 with substantial changes to the SuperSport channels available on each package.
Those who want to provide sports like rugby, cricket, and motorsport for their customers will have to upgrade to the Play Ultra package.
The restructuring includes limiting the number of viewing points to two televisions per subscriber — down from three televisions per subscriber. The reader — who owns a pub in Johannesburg — said the increase and reduction of the number of TVs per subscription effectively work out to a 125% increase per TV.
However, they are now forced to upgrade to the Ultra package to retain these sports, and with DStv limiting the number of TVs per subscription to two, this works out to R600 per TV per month.“Considering the current exchange rate regime, we face increased costs in local currency versus the US dollar, which necessitates a review of our subscription packages,” DStv said.
