By signing a 24-month contract before March 31, 2024, you can lock in the current price for the duration of your contract. This translates to a saving of R50 per month for Premium, R10 for Compact, and R20 for Access.
Additional Fees
There’s an access fee of R120 (previously R115) that applies on top of the package price unless you take advantage of the 24-month contract with the waived access fee.
Finding the Right Package
With various packages available, choosing the right one depends on your viewing needs and budget. DStv offers a channel comparison tool on their website [https://www.dstv.com/en-za/buy/dstv-packages] to help you decide which package best suits your preferences.
Conclusion
While the price increase might sting, DStv’s price guarantee option offers some relief for those willing to commit to a longer contract. Remember to consider your viewing habits and compare channel offerings before making a decision. It might be worth exploring DStv’s streaming services if you’re on a tight budget, as their prices haven’t changed for 2024.
