DStv Uganda has recently posted new prices effective September 1, 2022. If you’re in the market for a new subscription, now is the time to upgrade. 

KAMPALA | NOW THEN DIGITAL — Multichoice Uganda has announced a change in its prices for DStv and GOtv, effective September 1, 2022. This is a result of the current tough business climate. 

  • MultiChoice Uganda, the parent company of DStv and GOtv, has justified the increase. The increase in subscription fees is a result of a rigorous process, balancing content value, cost of delivery, and technology. 
  • For now, MultiChoice has said that the price increase is necessary to keep DStv and GOtv subscriptions affordable for the Ugandan population.
  • According to the July Consumer Price Index released on July 29 by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS), headline inflation in July increased to 7.9% from 6.8% in June 2022.
  • Read also: MultiChoice Uganda announced the appointment of Lois Aber Kwikiriza as the new Head of Marketing, replacing Colin Asiimwe.

As global growth slows down, entertainment budgets are stretched. The price hikes are an unwelcome surprise.

Are you disappointed by the increase in the cost of bouquets and packages? Also, do you plan to switch to other digital television services?
