NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS (June 12, 2014) – Cable Bahamas would like to update our subscribers about our World Cup coverage. We apologise for several short-notice changes and availability. We received a change in carriage from one of our major suppliers less than 24 hours before the start of the first match. This required some changes in how we were able to provide this coverage and until those changes were confirmed we held our marketing announcements to ensure that they were accurate and clear.
Cable Bahamas has purchased the exclusive rights to World Cup coverage in The Bahamas, and we are pleased to be able to provide carriage of every match throughout the series – 64 games in all! In addition to the existing channels that we provide in our Prime Sports package, we have added an additional three channels specifically for World Cup matches; we have provided those along with existing channels for your convenience on channels 746-750. Content will be available as games are in action on these channels.
Due to regional signal rights restrictions, we are unfortunately not permitted to carry World Cup coverage on CBC (ch 8/208) and ABC (10/210). This is beyond our control and we apologise for the inconvenience and frustration this may cause our subscribers.
Access to World Cup carriage will only be available with a subscription to REVTV Prime Sports .
