I also received the mail for "free premium weekend", Saturday morning I get sound but no video, called them and they said sorry there is some technical problem and that it will be resolved in 2 hours. Well its 9 hours later and still I only get sound on the premium channels. INCOMPETENCE...
I want to pick my own channels, can not wait for the "others" so I can say bye-bye forever to DSTV.
After having DSTV full for the weekend (from compact) - all i can say is what a waste. Thats y i dont want Premium, and soon may cancel the compact (if i cant get over not watching soccer).
Oddly enough, MK was about the only channel that was half worth watching, and perhaps VH1. MTV has gone to the dogs.
Music channels are completely missing from all but the Premium package. But the additional R300 is not worth it for 1 or 2 channels..
