Customers of Karib Cable will have to wait until next month to find out whether or not they will be paying extra for the cable companyâs service.{{more}}
This was disclosed by head of the National Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (NTRC) Apollo Knights during an interview with Searchlight on Thursday, July 22.
Knights disclosed that the council has just started the process of reviewing Karib Cableâs application for the increase of its cable service as the NTRC was provided with supporting documents for this purpose.
He said the process of reviewing the documents will take about one to two months.
Just over one month ago Karib Cable Company introduced digital cable to St. Vincent and the Grenadines and indicated that the monthly fee would increase from EC$75 to $89.99.
This was put on hold when the NTRC informed the public that fees cannot be increased until an application was made to them and in turn approved.
Until the approval process is completed customers will continue to pay $75 for the basic package.
