Yesterday (9 April 2013), MultiChoice<\/a> sent a notice to DStv<\/a> Select subscribers to let them know that their bouquet will be replaced by the new DStv Family package.<\/p>\n

DStv Select 1 and DStv Select 2 are discontinued effective immediately, the notice said.<\/p>\n

The notice quotes MultiChoice South Africa CEO Collins Khumalo<\/a> as saying that they conducted extensive research with existing Select subscribers before making the decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing the feedback, we decided to launch DStv Family with a more relevant and appealing channel line-up,\u201d Khumalo said.<\/p>\n

Existing DStv Select subscribers may move to other DStv packages and if it doesn\u2019t meet their requirements they can switch back to DStv Select.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, should you decide to become inactive and not be a DStv customer for more than 3 months, you will not be able to come back to your DStv Select. You will then only be able to subscribe to the DStv Family package at your current R175 price point,\u201d Khumalo explained.<\/p>\n
