Choice Cable TV caught Puerto Rico Telephone (Claro) building infrastructure for its proposed Internet Protocol TV service in its region earlier this month, doing so without a cable franchise license in violation of local laws.
Claro President Enrique Ortiz de Montellano publicly urged consumers Wednesday to continue exerting pressure on the Telecommunications Regulatory Board to issue the cable franchise license the company requested nearly three years ago to deploy its Internet Protocol TV service.
Less than a year after unveiling the island’s first network capable of offering 4G speeds, T-Mobile announced Wednesday plans to expand the high-speed service in more than 40 municipalities that include the areas of Naranjito, Juana Díaz, Luquillo, Las Marías, Toa Alta, Florida, Lares, and Canóvanas.
