Скачать или смотреть MultiChoice Defies Order, Increases DStv, GOtv Subscriptions

In defiance to a court order, MultiChoice Nigeria Limited has increased the subscription rates for its DStv and GOtv bouquets, ignoring an interim order from the Competition and Consumer Protection Tribunal (CCPT) in Abuja.
The CCPT had on Monday, issued an injunction restraining MultiChoice Nigeria from adjusting its subscription prices, which were set to take effect on May 1.
However, LEADERSHIP reports that the new rates were already being enforced, much to the dismay of subscribers.
This act of defiance has sparked outrage among consumers, who view it as a betrayal by a company they accuse of disregarding both the legal system and customer interests.
"The CCPT’s ruling was initially seen as a victory for consumers facing economic hardships," a consumer rights advocate commented. "However, MultiChoice's recent actions raise serious concerns about its dedication to ethical business practices and legal compliance."
Adding to the controversy, the Tribunal has granted an application for substituted service of the interim order, after reports surfaced that MultiChoice's officers at its Abuja office refused to accept the court documents.
