Many of the subscribers of TSTVAfrica were shocked as the BeIN Sports notified them of illegal viewing of the Europa League match between Arsenal and Red Star Belgrade.
This message appeared during the first football match broadcast of the pay-Tv provider on Thursday, November 2, 2017.
A Nigerian viewer narrated his experience and how the match was truncated half-way into the game.
This is surely a bad way to start a business which is touted an alternative to major competitor.play
“And immediately after this, the screen went blank and there was another message that stayed for a while before TSTV wiped it out.”
The screen wen blank after sometime.play

On my screen, I saw ‘You are watching Beinsport content Illegally via TSTV’ and the Beinsport channels disappear. #Tstv why please.
