DSTV- A waste of money I am so tired of spending a fortune every month on DSTV and I am now looking at other options. I only watch news channels and approx. 5-6 channels that have been worth watching in the past, but now there are so many REPEATS, some only an hour apart that the best channels I am listening to at present are the audio/music channels. I am not sure who is in charge of structuring the program schedules, but there seems to be no oversight in this regard. How many re-runs have we now had of Hometown, not to talk about Bones in the past. Surely enough is enough already. Maybe Bones will soon be advertised again as a “new” season. What lies! What does DSTV offer pensioners? There are special deals for businesses and they have a choice of channels, not so pensioners. We have to pay for channels with languages we do not understand, religions we do not follow, watch garbage programs on 132/135. Have constant repeats on HGTV and the Crime channels ad infinitum. My goodness, now we get “Naked Crimes”. At my age I am not interested in such *******. These are probably the cheapest programs DSTV can afford and now we are inundated with such junk. My goodness, unbelievable! How the mighty DSTV has fallen in terms of quality and programs worthy of our attention. The quality of programs on offer has diminished substantially. Is there a new management who rake in the money, but no quality control for what we and especially our grandchildren are exposed to? I remember the days when we had at least one decent new movie on Sunday evenings. That is now long gone. Now we have to pay for this amount of *******– why? Just more greed from DSTV. Showmax has not advertised anything of interest yet and Netflix I can watch at a much cheaper rate. Who wants to add to the unnecessary expense of adding it to DSTV’s funds? BBC channels have diminished. How many repeats have we now had of Midsomer ******s and gone are the days of decent shows on the History channel. Curiosity channel was fun…long ago, but now it is just ongoing REPEATS…again. Now and again when there is a good show it is often so late in the evenings. This is probably yet another ploy to get away with showing REPEATS. DSTV stop cheating the South African public and make more options available especially to pensioners so that we can have affordable entertainment. Surely, we deserve this after so many years of loyally paying for your services. Subscribers deserve better. R.Randall-Taylor
