Discounted DStv Stream plans for Capitec customers

IMHO This is the main problem with the DSTV hate train on mybb, the cost rather than anything else.
I have some reservations regarding that. I've come across numerous complaints about excessive repetition, bothersome self-advertising, poor streaming quality, and a lack of adaptability.

All things, that negatively affect the value proposition of the service, including the poor 720p/1080p quality of video. DSTV are charging a premium price, but delivering a product that is low quality, and very sub-premium. Their service levels are attrocious, their systems are slow and cumbersome.

The public do not want to interact with DSTV, because on all levels it is painful to do so.

Sure, but drop the price and they'll still complain, but also subscribe

Drop the price, and they, will subscribe, yes. But so will their expectations of what constitutes fair "value" drop, to where it is acceptable to the consumer.

That is, they will feel they are "starting" to get to the lace where they perceive that are getting what the are paying for.

DSTV is a service company - providing a video source, is no way near the start or end of that service, and that is the main issue.

If you approach it as just a source - then they are not providing any thing more or better than a pirate video service, but you are paying for all the extras you are not getting.

In the past, I might have considered it, but now that I've discovered alternatives, I wouldn't.

What DSTV must realize is that their approach, has not only alienated their prospective clients, they have forced those clients into a different behaviour patten, that is not favorable to their business.

The repetition is just a symptom. It's because they want to show something 3 times at 1AM that they think they have to show it 8 times when all that is needed is 4 times at differing time slots that don't interfere with other programs. Then part of the price issue is having to keep paying for PVR I already paid for.
 
No rugby channels on discount. Rugby people like to buy cak, like Ford bakkies, DSTV, and Lion Lager.
If that was true. I would have been ecstatic about watching psl, but sadly an over hyped mediocre tournament filled with aspiring gonzo tv stars leaves me cold.
