Well, I don’t know about you but what I look forward to after a very stressful day is hitting the shower, eating a nice meal and sitting right in front of my TV to watch my favorite shows.
Talk about keeping up with the Kardashians on E! or learning more about the new styles in going about interior decorations on TLC.
Now, you could be a sport lover and who said you could miss a match? DStv got us all covered!
Yaaay! Wait, do you remember the days of climbing roof tops to ensure we got an average signal to watch some channels outside our localities? Or those days when we could watch BBC and keep up with the rest of the world only with the help of our very big satellite dishes?
They took up a very large portion of our compounds, thinking about that now and I am just laughing and happy about technological success stories that keep entertainment available for us without any fuss.
Nowadays, DStv comes in several portable devices and the dishes can’t serve a family meal, hahaha, just kidding. Not only can we access all channels in Nigeria and those in several places in Africa but I watch NatGeo Wild conveniently in the comfort of my room and via my HD decoder and TV
I happily watch latest series on FOX Movies and African Magic. No one loves to be in the dark about some happening series, right? And what’s more?

How To Check DStv Subscription Due Date And Balance
It is now easier than ever before to check your DStv subscription balance and due dates, all thanks to DStv advanced technology.
With the newly added advantages, you do not need to sit in front of your TV enjoying your favourite TV show only to get cut off even before you get midway into the show, yea, I know the feeling, it can be so painful. The embarrassment that comes from the derided inscription ‘YOUR SUBSCRIPTION HAS EXPIRED’ on your TV especially when you have friends around ends now with the underlisted simple methods.
There are three methods you can use in checking your DStv subscription due date as provided by Multichoice.
- DSTv Self-service
- DStv Now app
- SMS
How To Check DStv Subscription Due Date And Balance Via DStv Self-Service
This online platform is also known as DStv Eazy Portal, which was launched to cater for the needs of all DStv Subscribers by Multichoice. On this platform, you cannot only check for your subscription due dates and balance, but you can also make payments, find installers/dealers nearest to you and call for repairs, all on the same platform.
The platform is easy if you have your smartcard number and every service you access on the platform is free of charge.

How To Check DStv Subscription Due Date And Balance Via SMS
Bye-bye to internet wahala in case this is an issue you battle with. The fastest of all the methods is checking via SMS. You can get the information you want as quick as 10 seconds! And it does not matter who your network carrier is, this means you can do this on your MTN, Airtel, 9Mobile, etc lines. In addition, the process is very simple, just text DUE (space) SMARTCARDNUMBER and send to 30333. The cons are
- Each SMS costs NGN20
- And you might not get your desired feedback in your first attempt even though you’d surely get a quick response.
To stay on the safe side, why not consider using all the options when it suits your situation?
