Hmm was looking to see if this gonna be riding on your internet and as you say need to have phone line, that has me worried with line noise etc. and my blinkin blink done playing the fool of late......

The prices looking good though and the cable company over here in Tobago it a total embarrassment yet ridiculously priced. I won't mind giving this a try.....

Well to go into this market with a comparative cost would be stupid, so 199 sounds pretty decent provided the actual service is up to scratch.

Blink broadband has better Live support, toll free calls to customer service, Strong ISP firewall yet getting your net speed and quicker tech support depending where you are in Trinidad. (I'm based in the NW)

Flow tech calls aren't free, service is lacking, for the net they don't have their Firewalls strong leaving it up to the consumer to get your own protection.

6 of 12, half dozen of the other it comes down to you to choose to go with the service and weigh your pros and cons. I'm a happy Blink Broadband wired customer of 5 years and going strong :)

One lil caveat is no dedicated gaming music channel, meh... Well back to www.tunein.com   :awesome:

Ok so there is a catch (as expected). In addition to the prices you see 100, 200, 300tt there is also a equipment rental fee: 22, 65 and 99 for the basic, hd and DVR respectively. This is a RECURRING fee so say you take a basic package @ $199 you add 22 for the SD box or 99 for the DVR PER month. So its' at least 122tt per month, on avg i'd say $221 or $264 for HD. Still cheaper than flow potentially but not by much.

Roger that @ Awesome

@W1n - Yea the monthly fee is no biggy on whichever box you choose, I expected that at least. What I watching at is channel content and the cable company over here in Tobago keeps raping you with a price near to that for crappy channels and service!!!

Will definitely be jumping to this.......just to convince pops....

Is the device rental fee monthly, or yearly?

...one man saying monthly, another yearly.

I wish Flow was over here.....no we are subject to one called Trico cable (CRAP!) the only other option is to get Direct TV....

So hopefully TSTT rolls this out soon in Tobago so that we can get another option...
