Yeah, right... I rang their number. Was told they are concentrating on russian channels only. The rest probably in a distant future... Don't believe all their websites claim. They were created long ago as promotion stuff and will remain without any updates for long time...

georgiepie... how long ago did you contact TV+???<br /><br />Last I heard (friday) They are concentrating on Balkans and are now broadcasting PINK, BN & BK on PAS8.<br /><br />Early in the new year they will anounce complete Balkan channels as well advise customers of other countries of importance.. Also TV+ ditched Russians long time ago and MY TV+ and Horizon are now pushing their russian wares around the town.. <br /><br />TV+ is NOT selling Russian channels as the market is to small with MYTV+ and Horizon there.. sure you didnt ring MYTV+??<br /> <br /> <small>[ 13.

contract with tv+ sucks big time<br /><br />I saw it yesterday.<br /><br />It says for example, after your contract with them is finished you have to give 90 notice to tv+ if you wonna disconect?!<br /><br />AFTER MY CONTRACT IS FINISHED??????<br /><br />Second thing: It says all damage during instalation of tv+ to your property by their stuf even if made by neglect (their), you are responsible for that!!!!!<br /><br />Third thing: It states that TV+ reserve the rights to change packages and stop broadcast channels without notice to customers, even if that happens customers can not cancel their contract, if they do, they will be in breach of it!<br /><br />And finally, it never says for what channels or package you are subscribing, and it does not ofer you any free dial up internet like they claim on their website.<br /><br /><br />can someone from tv+ explain this?

Ja<br /><br />If you have a look at the TV+ T&C's they are industry standard T&C's I saw them last week and compared them to Optus, Telstra's and UBI's and they all had similar clauses..<br /><br />Have a look at the UBI T&C's<br /><br />Page 2- 3.2 We shall not be liable to you for any delay or interuption of the service, changes in programing or any programing errors..<br /><br /><br />Regarding the disconnect notice old TARBS T&C's from memory rolled over to new 12 month term (I stand to be corrected on this as its from memory) I know industry standard is 1 month notice after term.....<br /><br />The negligence thing I saw in the Optus contract but since majority of connections are for existing or former TARBS customers this shouldnt be an issue - is it an issue for you??<br /><br />Regarding the free net connection.. TV+ are running a seperate discount package for all customers that signup as advertised in the Vesti & Glass if you elect to take that discount package no free dialup is available (it will be if you complain hard enough though hehehe I didnt say that but I complained about this same issue)<br /><br />All customers took up service before 20th of Nov signed a different form that had dialup as an option. Current form dosent have dialup but will in the new year.<br /><br />Hope this helps.. anything else???

Almost forgot, in the letter of offer they state "TV + will be the only provider for your Serbian and Balkans channels"<br /><br />Phil/Liski and Satfreak will have to clarify this EXCLUSIVITY statement.

Saving of $150 in the first year will be a big carrot for some people, particularly ones that are not informed (not reading forums like this).

Now UBI doesn't have any choice but to show its hand on a FULL Balkans package. Furtheremore, if TV+ claim to have EXCLUSIVE rights to Serbian channels is correct , then it is all over for UBI as far as Serbian comunity is concerned???<br />On the other hand if TV+ doesn't have exclusive rights to Serbian channels in Australia then it is MISSLEADING ADVERTISING and there should be consumer protection law against that????<br /><br />This point on EXCLUSIVE rights is very important and it should be clarified very quickly!!!!!

Its war between UBI and TV plus with with Liski and Bedioun defending UBI up against Satfreaks TV plus.<br />Now UBI has the Money and the expereince, TV Plus might have some 'expereince' but certainly doesent have dollars!!! Look at the speed of UBI compared to Satfreak's TV plus.<br />They both started the same time look at TV plus, and Look at the speed of UBI 'its breaking Records '

For the record I I wish all ethnic broadcasters the best of luck! UBI, TV Plus, WMI, Globecast, Vision Asia and anyone else bringing quality ethnic television to Australia!<br /><br />If it wasn't for these services that they provide, people like my grand parents would have not have their daily "hit" of back home television!<br /><br />I'm just grateful that we have the opportunity to watch quality ethnic programming right here in AUS!<br /><br />As for which company stands at the end of the day guess time will tell? (perhaps another 7 days ahem satfreak? *wink wink nudge nudge!* <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" />

hahahah all takes time if satfreak inform more please, who what and where with more precise details. As I said many people dont know much about UBI...all the serbs I know are watching it via PAS8 in my area as they think its the only alternative...I think TV+ has a big advantage in terms of that and of course costs in moving the dish to optus b3..well one more reason they might decaide to stay put!

There is only one minor point to include as "you get what you pay for" so, think twice before making final decision as there is a painfull bill to pay if not happy.

If its true then, there is simply one answer to that is TV Plus wants to stop customers returning back to UBI after their contract expires or so. By giving extra discount for the ex-Tarbs boxes, they will be able to collect many boxes as well as many customers who will not be able to go back to UBI unless pays extra for the box and the smartcard...<br /> <br /> <small>[ 15.
