MultiChoice to discontinue DSTV Mobile

They recently announced they will drop some channels and now DSTV has announced some major changes.

They have announced they will discontinue DStv Mobile service in South Africa at the end of October.

The company is dropping its DStv DVB-H mobile pay-TV service with the outdated DStv Walka and DStv Drifta that will no longer work at the end of the month.

“Over the last few years technology has evolved as broadband access continues to grow. It’s not feasible to continue to maintain a separate land-based, dedicated network for this service alone, when an even better service can be offered to our customers on DStv Now through the internet and WiFi”.Multichoice issued a statement

DStv Mobile subscribers are encouraged to dispose Drifta and Walka devices at MultiChoice branches in Randburg, Durban and Cape Town or at DStv agencies where there are recycling bins.
