You have explained that DSTV is an imported service hence is affected by the depreciation of the Kenya shilling against the dollar. However, your subscription fees have never been favorable to the Kenyan market even when the shilling was at its strongest. Markets like South Africa enjoy prime DSTV viewing and at reasonable pricing. We will understand that this is due to the currency fluctuations the day you drop your prices because the shilling is strong.

DSTV has abused its market dominance. Time has come for us to stop this behavior. We need to pay the same rates that South Africans are paying.
Also, DSTV shouldn't be allowed to have exclusive rights to air EPL matches. We need competition.

the price for premium channels in south Africa is R699 (Ksh. 5430.52), this includes HD channels from SS1 to SS7 and all Mnet Channels except Mnet City stream in HD. In Kenya, the price for premium channels is gonna be Ksh9400.00, with only SS4, SS5 AND SS6 as HD channels and with only 2 Mnet channels streaming in HD, WHERE IS FAIRNESS HERE? THIS IS SIMPLY RIDICULOUS
