I need to watch free channels on my Gotv Zambia, how can I activte it?
as I was watching channel 25 on gotv tonight the channel just went off. I then noticed that its not only Zee, CNN & some other channels also where no longer on the channel list. May I know what is actually going on? Without any notification you just removed channels not putting your customer s into consideration. This is not good enough for a company like yours.
gotv should put 60 more channels so they can be the best
It is only t the Chinese Channels that show these days on dstv freeview once th subscription expires.
