    • You don’t have to use any channel to activate your plan. If your your subscription is not working, turn off your decoder and turn it on…if the issue continues contact startimes customer care

  4. It’s like I’m tired of your service. Each time i recharge #1300 worth all the available channels may show for a week after which ‘your subscription has expired’ will begin to appear on the screen for about 4 or 5 days before they started functioning again. The last recharge i made was on the 6th of March and after a week most of the channels are not showing till now. The card number is 01831823354. The office where i bought it has been relocated.
