Two satellite television giants are suing a Winnipeg based provider for five-million dollars each alleging the business is helping customers steal pay per view events.
Direct TV and Bell Express Vu claim Freeway Support Services is fraudulently selling so-called grey market technology that helps its customers unlawfully receive and decode programming signals.
The suits are asking a court to prevent the company from distributing the alleged services in Canada and the U--S. Direct and Bell are also seeking the names and addresses of Freeway's customers and suppliers.
A representative of the defendant declined comment.
The allegations have not been proven in court.
