Cable TV Philippines

Cable TV in the Philippines

We lived in Magalang, a smaller farming town, North East of Angeles City.

Downtown Magalang, Philippines

The only decent cable TV service in Magalang was ComClark. In fact they were the only provider that had cable into our subdivision. They provided bundled Internet and Cable TV packages. For internet access we chose a Smart Wireless prepaid plan (find store locations.) They installed an antenna on the roof of our apartment. Each service cost us 900 pesos. That equated to about $20.30 each at today's exchange rate (April 20, 2014); a total of $40.60 per month for TV and Internet. The cable package we selected included HBO, Star Movies, Disney, National Geographic and a lot more. Try to match prices in the US!

There are cheaper services, but neighbors said that the lowest cost providers had lower quality of reception and sporadic service.

So, it appears, no matter where you choose to live in the Philippines you will be able to enjoy television. Even on the smallest island or in the most remote village (assuming electricity is available).
