A technical glitch has left some DStv customers unable to view programmes.
Some affected customers have vented their frustration on social media.
@DStv I've been trying to reason with Twitter people from @DStvCare but they've chosen to pose as bots so here's what I'll do, I'll watch DStv from a friend's account for free through DSTV now until you guys decide that you still want me as a customer or not.

I have E32-4 error on my decoder and I tried to fix it on the app, but it is not working. It still displays the error
Why did DSTV open all channels?🤔
