    LeTV HKBN Bundle - Includes EPL / Worldcup Qualifiers?

    Saw this deal online

    HK$ 248 for 2 year renewal on HKBN. My current price is $228.

    Figured the renewal should be fine, as we've been using them for 3+ years now and contract comes up for renewal in Oct.

    Service Plan: Access Plan
    1000M Broadband Internet, HKBN Wi-Fi


    Special Monthly Fee Schedule:
    Premium Access Plan 1000M + HKBN Wi-Fi: 1st and 3rd-24th Month: $248; 2nd Month: $0
    Contract Period:
    24 month(s)
    Includes: 1 free maintenance order , 1 free relocation order
    Premium:
    Le TV Box 4K with 12 months VIP membership & 4K pack service
    Free Month(s): 1 month(s)
    And yes, I have emailed them about it, but figured I'd ask here - does it include the EPL matches and Worldcup qualifiers?

    Is the video / audio / programming quality pretty good?

    Nothing special. Some random English language programming and lots of Chinese stuff. Some movies - which can easily be found on Netflix / Hulu etc.

    We got it primarily as a legal way of streaming EPL matches and since there is no additional cost for the first year to us, why not...

    An update for anyone looking. Collection seems to have gotten better. Decent mix of western movies+ a few series, Decent quality HD video + audio . currently watching the agent carter series on it, and some classic older movies now available as well (Godfather 3 , It's a mad mad world, was on the box recently).

    Firmware updates seem to have changed back some of the icon labels back to Chinese though

    Qood quality HD (1080p, so in case you are a 4K HD videophile, then you may want to get more opinions); match stats available; multiple matches on simultaneously so one can switch between matches; pre-match and mid match analysis was only Chinese, though match commentary was in English; No telecast lag, messages I was getting from friends indicated they were on par.

    How much is it costing for a standalone box + 12 month package?
