What Happens if you don’t pay for DSTV Subscription?
Your subscription will be terminated until you renew your payment. You won’t be able to watch most of the channels that come with your subscription package. Only a small number of channels will be available for you such as the Chinese channels, DSTV Channel, and other boring channels.
Another thing you should know is
How Long Does DSTV Subscription Last?
DSTV subscription lasts for 30 days. So your subscription needs to be renewed every month. Sometimes if you pay for more than one month at a go, you might get an extra month subscription for free.
You should try as much as possible to renew your subscription before the 30 days to make your renewal as smooth as possible. Less trouble to deal with if you ask me.
Now, here’s another vital information you should be aware of
Can I Pause My DSTV Subscription?
Yes, you can twice a year. If you intend to travel for around one to two weeks and there’s no one to watch your DSTV, then you should contact DSTV customer care to notify them in pausing your subscription for the duration of your travel. This should be done around two days before the day of your travel and you are only allowed to pause for a maximum of two weeks. This opportunity is available for you to do only two times in one year.
So after all this information, how do I pay for my DSTV via GTBank?
