UPDATE: Two beIN Sports-branded channels are coming off Singapore’s Singtel TV today (2 June). The two – beIN Sports 4 and 5 – are pop-up channels used intermittently to deliver additional live sports feeds.
beIN's other three 24-hour channels are not impacted by Singtel's decision to tidy up its channel capacity. beIN Sports said today (3 June) that renewals for the three have already been signed but have not been announced.
The telco told subscribers that the changes to the beIN Sports services are part of a content update to guarantee the “freshest shows”.
Singtel says there are no other changes to the line up – and the subscription rate remains the same. Singtel TV is also not entertaining requests for early termination, saying charges will apply if beIN Sports subs want out while they are still in contract
