FAQs
DStv questions
Are you DStv or MultiChoice?
No. TVRepairConnect is an independent service. For subscriptions, payments and account changes, please contact DStv directly.
My screen shows an error code. Can you help?
Some error codes point to a signal or equipment problem, which a technician can check. Others are about your subscription or account, which only DStv can resolve. Check that your account is active using DStv’s official app or website, and tell us the code when you request help.

Why does my signal drop when it rains?
Heavy rain can weaken a satellite signal for a short time. If the signal drops often, or in light rain, the dish may be slightly out of alignment, or there may be a problem with the LNB (the part on the dish arm that receives the signal) or the cabling.
Do I need a new dish?
Not always. The technician can check your existing dish and cabling and explain whether anything needs to be replaced.
How much does a DStv installation cost?
It depends on what you need, the equipment involved and where you are. Any call-out, travel and installation charges are explained before anything is booked.
