About these tv subscriptions guides
Paying for TV in Nigeria means choosing between GOtv, DStv and StarTimes packages whose prices and channel lists change through the year, and knowing what to do when the screen shows an error after you have paid.
These guides explain each package, what changed in the latest price review, how to clear common error codes, and how to renew without being cut off.
Package prices carry the date they were checked against MultiChoice and StarTimes, and articles are refreshed after each price change.
