Thank U! SingTel, MDA for doubling my EPL fee!!

[enterprise2]

We thought we will get a better deal when we work together as ONE to deal with Barclay to get our EPL coverage. Now that we got Singtel to agree to share content with Starhub we find that we have to pay double our current fees!!! Naturally I am speechless!!! Thanks to all parties for screwing us again. Next time some warning ok so we can put some ky on first!!

Watch a stream and stop giving your money to bloodsucking telcos, especially the red telco which is directly run by a cousin of the Familee.

You're an idiot for watching that crap in the first place.

I wouldn't waste 5 minutes of my life watching EPL even if I was paid for my time.

The best choice is to lead your life in a more productive manner like watching paint dry instead.

Singapore Telecommunications Limited is a subsidiary of Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited.
We all know Temasek is owned by the govt and it is therefore a pappy controlled company that is extracting its pound of flesh.

Somebody just said recently..." Politics is a contest of power. But you know, the key principle is when you have power is, don’t take advantage of people under your charge "
Isn't this a govt company taking advantage of the people?

Singtel is very arrogant in doing this and I will move over all my family subscription i.e land line, mobile phones (pre and post paid) ,internet and TV services to Starhub.
I will no longer have any dealings with Singtel from now-remembering also that they are one of the biggest employers of Pinoys.

Remember this when you cast your votes.

Hello Starhub also a GLC!!

Hello Starhub also a GLC!!

Although Starhub is a GLC, at least it is a joint venture which includes foreign companies.

Singtel, on the other hand, is directly Familee owned.

Singtel has fucked up so many times with its MIO TV service, I wonder why people still give money to it.

mio TV Unveils BPL Pricing Ahead of New Season Kick-Off

- Existing mio TV Gold Packs still available from $64.90
- New pricing for BPL stand-alone subscription at $59.90
- Majority of BPL customers unaffected

* how could majority of BPL customers be unaffected unless they have existing contracts with mio TV.


http://mio.singtel.com/miotv/price-plan.asp?q=gold-packs

if one die die must watch the EPL. might as well pay another $10 and one gets the Jingxuan+ Gold pack at $70 per month. one gets basically all the Chinese + English channels and the EPL. so rest of the 80+ English and Chinese channels are worth $10 only if i can put it this way.


didn't know that my favorite CTI Asia is on mio TV.

Those who may not have known such lousy service signed up with Mio and then got screwed for 24 months...the advertisements and road shows Mio put up in various shopping centres are are very frequent and aggressive.

...they have no choice but to keep on paying for 24 months....or else kena penalties to pay for the remaining of the contract...

dun insult the EPL viewer, they dun insult your tour of france viewing.

I don't have to pay a cent for that. If the broadcaster wanted money, I wouldn't bother watching.

That's a trap specially crafted to get you to sign up for a more expensive package. "Since I'm paying so much money, might as well pay a little more and get my money's worth" is precisely the kind of thinking that gets many into needless debt.

Sure you may be getting the Chinese+English channels. But will you watch all of them? How many hours a week do you spend watching tv? Also, compromising your lifestyle (e.g. going out less) and watching more tv after subscribing so as to 'get your money's worth' isn't a sensible thing to do.

Plenty of drug cheats in soccer too... probably more than in cycling plus add the number of "kelong" matches and it's a wonder anyone bothers. The bookies have a reason to love the game though. They're the ones who fix it.

They obviously make lots of money which is why they're the ones who are keeping this forum going.

copied this from HWZ.

If u have no mio tv,u sign up,its $60
If u have existing contract,u extend or stay,no change
If u are out of contract and paying every mth rolling,u decide to renew,it will b slightly higher than current prices
( confirmed by Singtel )


so if one is a current EPL subscriber with mio tv, consider first, don't be so quick to cancel the EPL subscription. one will be be paying $25 or a slightly higher price, not $60.
