Frequently Asked Questions

HD+ is a satellite TV subscription service that delivers the most watched and loved local free-to-air (FTA) channels in 5 times the picture quality when compared with regular Standard Definition (SD) TV. With HD+ you can enjoy your favourite local channels in razor-sharp, brighter and more colourful TV picture quality for an immersive viewing experience.

The service can be accessed via an HD+ Decoder, available at the nearest Multi TV dealer or any Electroland showroom nationwide. Existing homes on the MultiTV platform do not require a new satellite dish as they are compatible with the HD+ service. All that is required is a new HD+ Decoder to enjoy “The FeeliFeeli Experience.” A one-time activation via the USSD short code *879# will unlock a free subscription period of 2 months.

After the trial period, you can enjoy the HD+ FeeliFeeli experience by subscribing via the HD+ USSD code for only GHS25.00 a month. You can also enjoy significant discounts by opting for quarterly and yearly payments.

We recommend that you contact an authorized installer to assist you with the installation of your HD+ Decoder.
• You will need an HD TV set to enjoy The FeeliFeeli Experience.
• Ensure the dish is properly aligned to the MultiTV platform satellite position on Astra-2F at 28.2° East. The dish must be at least 60cm.
• Check that the F-Connectors at the end of the cable are properly fixed and protected with a high-quality insulation tape. The cable must not be longer than 100 ft or 30m.
• Check that the signal strength and quality are at the highest level possible (ideally, over 80%). This should be done using a signal meter (satellite finder).
• Finally, check that the satellite cable is connected to the back of the HD+ Decoder and connected using an HDMI cable to your HD TV set.
• Now turn on the HD+ Decoder and watch the progress on the TV screen. The HD+ Decoder will make an automatic scan of all available channels and build the HD+ Channel List. As part of this scan, the HD+ Decoder will also check for software updates. It is recommended to always maintain the newest software on the STB. This installation process can take up to 10 minutes and needs no action unless prompted by messages on the screen

There is always a corresponding HD+ logo on an HD+ Decoder.

You can get the HD+ Decoder from any Electroland showroom nationwide or authorized dealer store.
