BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – TELECOMMUNICATIONS GIANT Cable and Wireless (C&W) and the Caribbean number one online media house, SKNVibes, have up the ante in their service to residents of St. Kitts and Nevis with the providence of daily information on current and forth-coming attractions at the recently established Caribbean Cinemas.
This was made possible on Thursday, October 2 when SKNVibes’ Chief Financial Officer Stachio Williams and David Lake, C&W’s Vice President of Mobile and Indirect Channel, signed a contract to initiate the new SMS text promotion, where customers will be able to benefit directly from the service by gaining access to the movie schedule of the Caribbean Cinemas on a daily basis.
Williams said the system designed for customers to gain access to the movie schedule is very simple, and all one needs to do is to adhere to the following procedure:
• Text ‘mov’ or ‘movie’ to ‘7568’ on your bMobile phone;
• You will receive the full schedule for all seven screens on your phone instantly; and
• Text ‘mov’ ‘<space>’ ‘<screen number>’ to ‘7568’ for a specific movie screen schedule.
• Example: Text ‘mov 1’ to ‘7568’ or ‘mov 4’ to ‘7568’ for that specific screen schedule.
According to Pat Walters, Chief Executive C&W St. Kitts-Nevis Ltd., this initiative is just another step in the partnership between

“They [SKNVibes] have become one of our most important pre-paid partners. At the moment, they do our Online Top Up for us and we have worked together with lots and lots of different promotions. And I am really proud to have that partnership with SKNVibes here in St. Kitts-Nevis as they [SKNVibes] are now providing Online Top Up for some of our other sister islands. I look forward to the day when they will cover the whole Caribbean and become the premier Top Up partners of Cable and Wireless One Caribbean,” the Chief Executive said.
Lake echoed Walters’ sentiments and noted that in addition to this new initiative, he has great hopes in future promotions the two entities have planned for C&W’s customers.
“We have been talking about a lot of exciting things and customers are going to see SKNVibes, which I must applaud the management and the leadership for coming forward with such exciting offers for our customers and really enhancing their lives.

He pointed out that SKNVibes is the leading Web Development Company in the Caribbean Region specialising in Ecommerce and Web Applications.
