NBTC refuses TrueVisions request for leniency
August 20, 2012 – The National Broadcasting and Telecommunication Commission (NBTC) has refused TrueVisions’ petition to cancel the Bt500,000 fine for failing to broadcast the June 8-July 1 Euro 2012 tournament as well as not delivering on its promises to subscribers.
TrueVisions is claiming that not being able to broadcast the games was not its fault because GMM Grammy, the holder of the broadcast rights, would not allow free-TV operators to transmit the signal through satellite receivers.
