Smiler

Got back from Dalaman last week where I had the pleasure at long last of meeting Mike and Hilary.

Whilst there, I was going to buy a Digiturk reciever and subscription, however I was told by the guy who owns the shop (and have dealt with on a regular basis), told me to wait three or four months, I had trouble understanding what the guy was telling me but the gist of it was that Digiturk would be changing or stopping and a new service taking its place. Does anyone have anymore information or shed any light on this?

It just seemed strange that a Turkish shopkeeper would stop me making a purchase in his own shop

Cheers!!

Several hundred Digiturk subscribers are now waiting with baited breath to find out what your shopkeeper meant.

As far as I know Digiturk are moving over to a digital system similar to Sky + in the U.K. with more content "on demand" and improved encryption. It was due to be launched within the first quarter of this year, so in a few months sounds about right(!).

Don't know anything about the current system being discontinued though, that seems a bit unlikely. It will probably be done the same way Sky did it in the U.K., i.e. a gradual move with inducements for existing customers.
