BeinSports SkyCable Thank You Very Much

Published by Stephen Bentley on March 2, 2016

Wow! BeinSports and Sky Cable I thank you so very much! BeinSports is NOW available in Bacolod!

When I first subscribed back in June of 2015 I was attracted by the Philippines wide advertising that promoted the fact that SKYcable held the franchise for Bein Sports.
