Multichoice Nigeria Ignores Court Order, Enforces New DStv Sub Fees

Multichoice Nigeria, the operator of DSTV, has shunned the court order halting its hike in subscription fees and has gone ahead to enforce the new price at all of its outlets, The Cable reports.

When TheCable visited the Multichoice outlet in Bariga, Lagos, under the guise of purchasing a DSTV bouquet, there was a detailed information on the front desk with information about both the old and new prices. 

The sales attendant confirmed the implementation of the new price, saying: “It used to be N1,500 (for the cheapest package) but now its N1,800.” 

Asked why it was no longer N1,500?, she answered: “Because it has been increased.” 

Asked why the company ignored the court injunction restraining the implementation of the hiked prices, she said: “They have not given us the go-ahead to revert to the old price.”
