Save Money paying for Tv channels you watch

Postby Vehlijanta » 15 Mar 2023, 15:38

Many people have the habit to go for the highest pack on dth so they can get all the Tv channels and in reality you can watch only 3-4 channels and max 10 so instead of paying for all better plan your pack and pay less.

Mostly the awesome and amazing channels are put on the highest package. This is an earning strategy for the paid TV service providers.

Even if you choose your favorite it won't be more than 20 so choose a pack having these and not all channels

We don't have pay as you watch in my country. We usually end up paying for a whole package.

Yeah, and this is not always favourable in most cases because we can't watch them all and still we get to pay for each and every channel on the list.

That's because we have a monopoly in the terrestial television sector as the competitors of DSTV can't just meet up.

There are a lot of platforms where you can watch movies for free and that will save you a lot of money.

I don't even mind those guys. There are telegram channels that I use to watch my shows for free.

I would have loved this but unfortunately my cable network have no provisions for this. You just buy per plan which is expensive

For me this is not applicable in my country. Normally the most expensive package contains the best channels for most people.

I think there should be a legislation that would force cable TV networks in African countries to let customers pay for only tye TV stations that they watch and also pay per view. I would subscribe and for some reasons, I am out of the house for an extended period only for the subscription to keep on running and I have to resubscribe again when I come back.

This is a good way to save money but we don't have this option for your cable viewing for now. I would have loved this

I have now decided to buy the inbuilt decoder TV set. I have realized that the decoder in-built TV is very cheap as it has so many free to air channels.

I don't watch TV any longer. But I would surely do free to air channels if I did to save costs.

Find a terrestrial TV network that allows you to pick few channels and pay for. That is cheaper than paying for packages with channels you hardly ever watch..

I ditched cable tv about three years ago because it was becoming extortionate. There is only one provider who has sole control of the sports channels here, and because we watch the EPL, they were really holding us and hordes of fans to ransom. That was until a friend introduced me to IPTV streaming, from which you get access to countless countries' content including sports channels and live tv. The best thing since sliced bread! <3

No doubts. DSTV is the company you are referring to. They have been exploiting us because of that EPL. As for their other contents, we easily find it in cheaper alternatives.
