As its not fair on the Portuguese viewers that have had this for years. No valid reason behind it for them to remove it.Alex Prioste De Freitas (Johannesburg, 2020-10-19)

It's the only channel that has the best Portuguese Telenovelas. And it's one of the programs the Portuguese community have been watching to keep them aware of what is happening in Portugal and around the world with other Portuguese communities.Michael Teixeira (Centurion, 2020-10-19)

We loved watching SIC and looked forward to this channel every day please reconnect it - so many unhappy Portuguese people in SA now - it’s as if Portugal doesn’t care about us immigrants - we love Portugal so let us be a part of Portugal by watching SIC - a little bit of Portugal near us when we live so far - obrigada - Bom Dia Portugal xxx xxxCandy Da silva (Gauteng, 2020-10-20)

I am signing this petition as i am an avid viewer of SIC and i originally had the Portuguese bouquet that they keep on changing and they just took away the channel with any notification whatsoever. Totally unfair.Antonio Dias (Gauteng, 2020-10-20)

I am a stay at home granny. This is my only form of entertainment that I have at home and to take it away from me without any notice. I love watching SIC and follow many of its daily programs. TOTALLY unfair and uncalled for.Laura Dias (Gauteng, 2020-10-20)

It's so unfair on the old generation. All they have is there Portuguese language. Which 90% don't understand or speak English. They have paid extra for so many year's. They watch there sopies and there country's news. Plesse don't take it away from themArlindo Gregorio De Abreu (Boksburg, 2020-10-20)

This channel 517 sic is the only entertainment my elderly parents have had and has been their daily companion for many years. When i initially reaching out to dstv I was told there were no plans to terminate the channel only to find on the 16 Oct that it had been terminated. Pls reconsider having this channel reinstated.Maria Troina (Jhb, 2020-10-20)

I'm signing because my parents enjoy watching and limiting the coverage to one channel is absurd when the fees are so high. Always more for less. Just not acceptable. Lots of Portuguese people will cancel their subscriptions and rightfully so.Dina De Canha (Johannesburg, 2020-10-20)

This is the only channel my mother watches and my father(who passed away in May 2020) watched. Hearing about it on social media without no direct notice from DSTV, and without any alternative is pathetic and typical service delivery in this countryManny De O (Kempton Patk, 2020-10-20)

I am 2nd generation South African born Portuguese. Who relies on a Portuguese channel for a bit of my roots. Sic has much better variety than RTP. AS far as I am concerned if it wasn't for sport and sic I would cancel DSTV completely. No consultation with our community because we are a minority in your eyes. What about a vote. The majority of our members have the full bouquet if we cancel DSTV they will feel it.Jose Ascencao (Benoni, 2020-10-20)
