At CABLELINK, we only have ads (more like infomercials) on Cablelink TV channel 18 (Community Channel) and these are for our subscribers who on occasion would like to win movie tickets and watch the latest movie premieres, win network give-away items, join family events and more. We don’t put disruptive ads in our channels provided since we know how important it is for subscribers to “stay in the moment”. Respect is a must with regard to our Cable TV services. Call us at 988 5465 (LINK) to find out more.

Wow this post was made 2005? I’m with destiny cable and they’ve done the same thing, discovery, nick and cartoon network is becoming unbearable. they’re advertising some candies and health supplements, they even gone as far as getting a voice that sounds like the one for discovery channel…Is this legal? can they actually interrupt the programming of the said networks?

i sometimes do “tha fingah” in front of the tv when skycable adds their ads. WORSE, they’re late pa nga sometimes, that when the ad is done, it’s in the middle of the show.

if they want advertising badly on channels, a small, almost non-disturbing ticker will do.

this sometimes annoys me when some channels have very short commercial breaks, they add their ad and piss of everyone watching it.

agreed. UNACCEPTABLE.

Now, I wanted to switch from Destiny (since they haven’t find time for me to reinstall my cable) to Skycable. Apparently, sky doesn’t want to “have” me as a subscriber and the reason: our building is not suitable to install. The crappy thing is some of the tenants are subscriber of skycable and I was a subscriber of their sister company HOMECABLE.If only their are other cable companies here in MANILA. Their service stinks!

It has been 3 weeks since I had a single cable channel in my tv. Destiny cable said that they will fix the problem but until now they haven’t and I always have to call them for the actual schedule. IT SUCKS!!!

You are tired of getting ads on HBO? Most people in the Philippines don’t know how lucky they are that they are getting channels like HBO, Showtime, for free. Money has to come from somewhere. Thank God for TIVO.

I also dont like the ticker that shows local ads on some of the channels. Imagine, while watching HBO, may lalabas na lang na advertisement sa isang bagong bukas na parlor sa kanto. I dont know if this happens until now but I was so bad trip about it and called SkyCable… to no avail (obviously). This was 8 years ago.
