<div class=newsTextDataWrapInner>&ldquo;With the government&rsquo;s decisions regarding the BPL content, we can focus on bringing the start of the season to all Singapore football fans. We are announcing our packages and prices today to give everyone sufficient time to sign up before the new season kicks off on 17 August,&rdquo; said Allen Lew, Country Chief Officer-Singapore, SingTel. 
 
The BPL stand-alone subscription will also be offered on both mio TV and the alternative pay-TV platform at $59.90 per month. The cross-carriage ruling requires the BPL standalone subscription price to be the same, regardless of the platform. The price for BPL stand-alone subscription reflects the cost of providing the matches as a stand-alone service. 
 
mio TV will maintain existing prices for its Gold Packs (BPL, sports, movies and family entertainment bundled packages). For $64.90 a month, football fans and their families will enjoy more than 80 channels.
