U.B.I the company that made history in Australia.<br />From all the people from El salvador we are very greatful for you Christina has done ..<br />Thank you

Yes Tracesat Brisbane I have to thank UBI in bringing these channels to us into Australia, Could you imagine if they later on Get TV globo and TV Chile too.

I enjoyed the Wrestling on Galavison last night, what a ripper!!!

yes it was a good wrestling<br />is it every night

Mud Wrestling?

No! no mud, just Biff and barge.

any good thing to wantch on any of those spanish channels.<br />anyone got any idea

ekhazen5, if you were born in the region, then you'll love all these channels....if you weren't then maybe the music channel will be of interest to you....

QUESTION FOR LISKI...<br /><br />Liski can you clarify something for me... Is it true that once we subscribe to UBI, we will be able to subscribe for ONE month only....this being because UBI doesn't know if they will keep the spanish channels for long.....I guess it will depend on the numbers of spanish subscribers......who told me???? well all I can say is that I called UBI today....

what i mean megb68 is if there is any english movies or any wresling sorts or boxing or something like that <br />it is ur langage and maybe u know

megb68,<br /><br />UBI will be keeping the Spanish channels - I'm not sure what you mean by "this being because UBI doesn't know if they will keep the spanish channels for long"<br /><br />NO ONE AT UBI would say that they don't know if the Spanish package is staying. It has been launched hence it will be staying!

LOUD and clear....thanks Liski!!!

audio problems on GALAVISION today, did you notice or was my dreambox?
