You're correct. It is all about the “dollars” but it’s the dollars that DigiTurk/Lig TV request for the channel. So if you want to continue having Lig TV broadcasted into Australia then you must pay for the privilege. I don't think it's fair for UBI to subsidise it any further when they are upping the cost to UBI.

So far the uptake of the add on is going well. If the uptake of Lig TV doesn’t go so well then it will show DigiTurk that the channel isn’t as popular as the money they believe they deserve for it.

I feel sorry for the people who become so dramatic and cancel their whole service over this. The husband might watch a few hours of Lig TV during the week but the wife would be the one watching UBI Turkish channels during the week so if they wish to cancel it then so be it.

Yes you can stop your automatic debits and “break” your UBI Contract but at the end of the day any amount owing on your account will be forwarded to a debit collector.
