Multichoice/DSTV Reviews

Programme material

I am a retired Civil Engineer age 73 a watch DSTV almost every evening. I have concluded that SA DSTV must be the most expensive, worst run Television Network in the World. There are 104 TV channels of which I watch a maximum of 34, there are +/-80 audio channels which I don't use at all.
In that I am paying R559, 00 per month for having the choice of watching a maximum of 34 channels the programmes of which are repeated frequently, others appear to have been stolen from various museums, I have concluded that it would be vastly more cost effective to have a Video Contract. Unfortunately I like the News, Sky, BBC, Aljazeera, and occasionally etv News. From those News Services we can actually keep in touch with World events without the SA Government biase.
Why in this day of computers can we not all have, and pay for, the channels that we want on an annual contract basis. Does DSTV Manangement not have the knowledge or the competency to provide this type of service.

Repeats

During the last few days we have had to put up with TWO separate transmissions of repeats of The Weakest Link. These are repeats of RECENT transmissions. Surely with your modern systems complimented by your well trained personell...you could find a way to give your subscribers a limited number of repeats...and where this is unavoidable ensure that it is not a repeat of a transmission a only weeks ago !
What do we as subscribers have to do to get good value for money ?
I am a relatively new subscriber and I am not at all happy with the quality/choice of programs. It would appear that DLF Cricket is your main interest - whilst I have found this sport to be interesting...there is a limit as to how much of my time I wish to devote to DLF Cricket which must cost your orgainisation an arm and a leg which is obviously passed on to consumers like me.
I look forward to having less repeats and getting better value for my money and trust that you will consider and attend my complaint.
