Number of GOtv Packages
These are the four GOtv Kenya packages that are available to the various economic classes of Kenyan citizens across the country.
- Max Package for 52 channels of local and international entertainment.
- GOtv Plus package that offers 41 top-quality local and international channels
- GOtv Value for 26 channels and
- Lite package which provides 16 channels
This reduction in price must have been brought by stiff competition, which is occasioned by the presence of several players in the market, providing cheaper options.
And more so by a lower uptake from new and existing customers who felt that they were not getting value for money after the price increase.
At present, the price of a GOtv decoder and GOtv Antenna is at Ksh. 1,999. This starter kit comes with a free one-month GOtv Plus subscription.
A new subscriber gets to enjoy 43 local and international channels. After one month, the subscriber is free to choose the package that suits their viewership needs and pocket.

How to Clear the GOtv Error E-16
GoTV Kenya scrapped away the Free to Air(FTA) subscription and replaced and replaced it with the GoTV Lite package, which is Ksh 555 billed quarterly (once every four months).
At one point, I was tired of this and decided to choose a different pay-tv service provider.
I remember I purchased a GOtv decoder and was told to pay a given amount, and then after a month or two, my Decoder will be automatically be converted to FTA.
Before I decided to ditch GOtv Kenya, I called them and was told that there is an option to turn my Decoder to FTA as they had given this option, instead of paying for what I did not need.
At first, I was told that I had only to pay the Ksh1,800 administration fee (I swear, I have no idea what this means), for my Decoder to be converted before I can begin watching free to air channels. The thing is that their staff is very reluctant to make the change, but I somehow managed to do it.
How to Convert your GOtv Kenya Decoder
Remember that, even after changing your GoTV decoder from pay-TV to FTA, that does not mean that you will stop paying for it.
It attracts a recurring fee of Ksh 1,800 every year, for purposes they can only describe as maintenance.
Nevertheless, I know many people are currently facing the same problem that I had some time back, and I would quickly try to help them using a method that worked for me.
In a few simple steps, you should have your GoTV Kenya decoder showing FTA channels, in a few hours.
Note that, Apart from local channels, the only other GoTv channels that you will receive are Faith TV, Islam TV, and GO Channel.
Before you convert your GOtv Kenya decoder, top up your making payments on the GOtv Kenya Paybill number- 423655. Ksh 1,800 to be exact.
Afterwards, you can opt to use their self-care centre by dialling *423# and following the voice prompts, or you can choose to call their customer care service on 0711-066-000.
If you only pay and fail to use any of the two options above to contact their customer care, your Decoder will not be converted.
Before you make the call, make sure that you have your IUC number, as it is essential to associate your account with the Decoder.
Converting your Decoder should be easy unless you find a customer care agent who is in a terrible mood. Within a short time, your Decoder will be showing free to air channels.

Clearing the E-16 Error Message on GOTv Kenya Decoder
The E-16 error is usually a reception issue and not a payment issue. Check your aerial and adjust it to improve reception.
Some people, after converting their decoders to FTA, got an error message (E016-0 – Service is currently scrambled).
Clearing this message is straightforward. Just send an SMS with the word ‘RESET’ followed by a single space and then your IUC number to 22688.
For example, if your IUC number is 1234567, your SMS should look this way without the full stop: RESET 1234567.

I normally pay ksh. 699 on 4th of every month. But today i got a text notification that i still need to top up 50 for my account ( 2017730655) to be reconnected. why?
I have been paying gotvplus but the signal for channels 30 31 32 33 is very weak from this month I will pay gotv value
why 749 inplace of 699? what has changed and majority of your channels dont show!
I also have the same question.
Why am i asked to pay 1229 and i usually pay 749 for gotv plus makes no sense 2014352256

Hi, I have been paying for gotv light and I want to start paying for gotv maxi…..would you please send me the account no.for that. My iuc no.is 2018677093
Does anybody here care to answer to any of the issues raised????
Tafadhali Gotv, lower the prices plz. Why do you behave like this? instead of giving us some breathing space you sqeeze it so bardly. Though I’ve not intended to quit GOtv, but now it may come in my thought. Or is the 100 bob airtime your gave sometimes back. I think i’m ready to give you guys the a100 , so long as the previous rate stands.
It is very annoying to just increase the charges out of the blues …and not inform the customers are you trying to be KPLC?
This is not fare, how can you increase the rates and you don’t inform your clients?
So, the Gotv Plus package price has increased to 500 per month. Yet, the same BORING channels is what we are treated to! Maisha magic shows Vasrhita and Auntie boss for a whole afternoon! There is only one African channel which only shows Nigeria movies full of spiritualism. NOT even one movie channel included. For the same price on other decoders, i am sure i would find better entertainment.
upgrade my GOTV to the latest subscription ID NO .22727318

Somethng tells me they wunt even react.Go tv nowdays is worse than kplc, mara the ariel keeps losing signal, packages wth less chanels than they r suposd to have, increasd prices for no reason, if any of u is reading this just know tht u guys suck. Am done wth gotv
Victor Ombati Makori I used to pay 699 but last month I was told to pay 749 which I paid this month on 16 th have paid 749 but all am seeing is error codes , can you plz do something about it and through the comments am seeing you loosing it somewhere. that game has to stop
i paid 470 this months subscription and didint get sony max,sony,nat geo,geo family,viasat life…kindly update the prices and channels cz everytime i call you give different stories…am just tired of complaining plz
My account is 2017140817. I am on GTV PLUS but in June 2018 I was charged 749/- then in July 2018 I was charged 1,299/-. I wonder why? Was there an increase of subscription fee? I am now thinking of switching off GTV and moving to a better service provider. Please sort out by: 1.) Refund of overpaid amounts 50/- + 600/- = 650/- 2.) Correcting the situation so that I can now pay the normal 699/-.
I pay my decoder yesterday but noting show
Am Wilfred, my GoTv decoder has stopped definitely from show all channels for reasons that still remains unknown. Yersterday i called one of your consultant at 9.45Pm and after explaining my complains she cut off my call without giving me lasting solution.
My complain that i launched was that, sometimes back i visited Multichoice center at westland, and i paid one-off payment of Free to Air amount Totaling Ksh:3600.00 and i was given a certificate i.e back 2015. I was assured i will Never pay any amount to the rest of my life watching Free to air.
So its to my surprise i have been not subscribing to any bouquet until recently when message popped on my Tv screen showing that World cup and other offers has ended on 1st-09-2018 and error E-16 displayed.
Kindly find out and inform to me what has transpired and i need immediate solution.
My mobile No:0725593082
Very much bitter about thing called gotv… Every time you make a payment they don’t activate your account unless you contact them…and in return you are being asked silly questions… ie your mobile number..
For months now I have been paying for gotv plus which was 699 and now 749,reasons I don’t know because I can’t see any changes,so my question is,previously Sony max amongst other channels are not showing what could b the problem
Upgrade IUC 2017092654.I paid last month till now it has not upgraded
Hi whats happening with gotv, are they thieves, why pay for something that doesnt appear on my screen, have paid for gotv plus but i cnt watch any supersports channel.plz help me before i take this thing to coart, my iuc number is 4624068166
Most of time my GoTv keeps on searching……wat might be issue???
ensure your signal strength is above 80%
remember gotv has transmission sites so its important to ensure that you align your antenna towards the respective transmission sites
thirdly,ensure that the cable that runs from the antenna to the decorder is tightly fixed just to ensure there is no hindrance in terms of flow.
Thanks Patricia
