On March 1, 2011, Caribbean Asset Holdings (CAH), a subsidiary of National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation (CFC) announced the transfer of control of St. Maarten-based cable TV operator St. Maarten Cable TV was completed.
Immediately after the transfer, changes to the channel line-up were essential in order for the system to be in compliance with regional programming requirements. As a result, new channels were introduced to St. Maarten Cable TV's audience including MSNBC, The History Channel, BBC America and Azteca International. These line-up change included channels that had been requested by subscribers. Customers of a la carte premium services will be able to enjoy an expanded HBO/ Max Pak featuring HBO Caribbean, HBO Family, HBO Plus, Max and Max Prime.
On March 6, 2011, current customers of St. Maarten Cable TV began receiving a free preview of all the channels offered on St. Maarten Cable TV's line-up as an introduction to all the new programming that is being offered. As advertised, this two-week preview period will conclude on Wednesday, March 23, 2011. When the preview period ends, customers will revert back to the packages to which they subscribe.
