DStv adds EPL, La Liga, Euro 2016 to Compact bouquet

MultiChoice Nigeria on Tuesday announced that subscribers on its Compact and Compact Plus bouquets will now watch the full complement of football matches from the English Premier League (EPL) and La Liga as well as the European Championship (Euro 2016).

The matches will be available to DStv Compact subscribers in High Definition and at no extra cost. Previously, the full football package was available to only DStv Premium subscribers on its SuperSport channels.

Explaining why DStv is providing a full football menu for Compact subscribers, Managing Director, MultiChoice Nigeria, John Ugbe, said: “One of MultiChoice’s key priorities is to put our subscribers’ needs at the heart of everything we do and since these have been tough economic times for everyone, we realised that our subscribers could use some good news. We’re excited that we can now deliver the best football action in the world to our Compact subscribers, while ensuring that this development doesn’t negatively impact them financially.”

Ugbe also explained that Euro 2016 matches have been made available to Compact subscribers as part of MultiChoice Africa’s ongoing efforts to improve its products and offering.

MultiChoice also announced a price slash on Explora and Zapper decoders bundled with the Compact bouquet.
