The top tier bouquet NumeriPASS Platinium offers all channels for €58 a month; various thematic bouquets are available, such as PASS Cinéma, PASS Découverte and PASS Jeunesse, with prices starting at €10 a month. A number of channels are also available a la carte, such as Mezzo, TPS Star, XXL, with prices from €1.50 and upwards.
From early 2011, Numéricable also plans to offer a number of catch-up TV service to BBox owners taking the TV service. The new services will sit alongside the current BBox TV offer from Bouygues Telecom itself.
The agreement between the two operators was signed last December and gives them access to each others networks. Numéricable has given Bouygues Telecom access to its nationwide fibre network and the cabler has now started to offer its TV product to Bouygues Telecom customers.
