In an era of wide-reaching digital services, DStv is streamlining processes, ensuring that customers and their households are connected to the Internet without the admin paying multiple bills. The DStv Internet via fibre package gives customers more of their favourite content, but that’s not the only benefit.
DStv Internet via fibre currently houses two products: one that bundles the DStv Compact bouquet and another that offers the top-end Premium bouquet:
Aggressively priced at R699 for a fixed 24-month period, the first fibre bundle offers 25/10Mbit/s (downlink/uplink) uncapped fibre and router, with a DStv Streama TV box and a DStv Compact subscription.
The second fibre bundle also offers 25/10Mbit/s uncapped fibre and router, including a DStv Streama box and DStv Premium for R999/month on a 24-month contract.
In both instances, consumers who supply their own decoder get satellite TV included at the same price.

According to the Digital Quality of Life Index 2021 (SA in DQL global ranking), South Africa is ranked 68th out of 110 countries, which is the highest ranking in comparison to other African countries. Although many South Africans enjoy access to mobile and broadband with relative stability, there is a long way to go in fully bridging the digital divide.
“The DStv Internet via fibre is our way of giving more to our customers. Their needs have changed far beyond consuming content, they are actively engaging on different platforms to access information and stay in touch with the world. Simplicity is key for us at MultiChoice. If someone has access to a reliable network connection, they can stream content and browse the Internet across multiple platforms at an accessible price,” says MultiChoice South Africa CEO Nyiko Shiburi.
The attainability of DStv Internet via fibre is seen through customers like Zakhele, a 28-year-old retail manager, who shares a house in Cosmo City with three friends.
“There are some things we like to do together like stream a soccer match, while other times I just prefer browsing the ‘Net in my own personal space. Having this uncapped fibre and subscription at one price not only means saving, but that we all get to do what we like,” he said.
