Cable Bahamas had a complete and protected monopoly on the Cable-tv market for 30 years and provided absolutely garbage product, content and service. They also had almost no competition for wired internet nor digital internet service ( BTC being a pathetic joke) and chose not to continually improve or expand their service. Now that they and BTC have to compete against a real and competent competitor, and are getting their butts kicked by that competitor they are crying to the authorities to protect them. How about actually putting your house in order and offering a quality service and actually compete for market-share instead of crying like a bably.

Government people refuse to acknowledge the most important maxim of business and of government…”Make it easy for the client to give you his or her money!” It boggles the mind!!
Too easy for the digital provider/bank or government to be able to freeze or sieze your funds with a simple mouse-click. At least with physical cash you have a chance to stay solvent….just ask the Canadian truckers.
My insurance expired in Dec 2024….my car license renewal was November 2024 so I had no trouble renewing my car license. But I thought I would update my insurance and renew it at the beginning of November so I would have 12 months of insurance to be ok with the new law. The insurance company refused….stupid.
How complicated can it be to recalculate and reset ones insurance policy to comply with the new regulations? It’s only complicated if the insurance companies want to make it complicated.
