With the deadline of June 1st for releasing some of its frequencies for Wimax services fast approaching, we are getting mixed information about the future of Comet Cable. Comet Cable has not taken any steps to reply our emails regarding their future plans or what the future holds for their subscribers.
Some reports indicated that a message was flashed across the Star Package on channels such as Star World, Star Movies, Star Plus on Comet Cable saying "THIS CABLE NETWORK HAS LARGE PAYMENT DUE AND LIABLE FOR DISCONNECTION" on May 7th/8th. We are unable to verify the accuracy of the said message.
Subscribers have informed us that they have received the programme guides for the month of May. What we understand is that Comet Cable will have to release a certain segment of its frequencies for the Wimax services and have therefore been asked to convert to digital to continue serving customers. What Comet may do is release those frequencies and drop some channels and continue on the remaining frequencies until they convert to digital. We are not sure whether this possible and a knowledgeable person in this field is welcome to give his/her thoughts.
Anyone with a better knowledge on this subject of the Wimax frequencies and the Comet frequencies is welcome to email us or make a comment regarding this matter.
