At a special meeting held on the weekend, members of the Jamaica Association of Community Cable Operators (JACCO) agreed to reject overtures from FLOW.

FLOW has been making pronouncements about its plans for the local cable market even though it is yet to receive the approval of the Broadcasting Commission.

There have been reports that cable operators are being pressured to sell their operations.

President of JACCO, Collin Innis, told RJR News that during last weekend's meeting cable operators made it clear that a wide scale sell-out is not on the cards.

It is reported that FLOW's announcement to seek control of a large segment of the cable industry has thrown the sector in disarray.

JACCO says since the announcement by FLOW, several subscribers have been refusing to pay their bills, arguing that they will soon be switching to the new provider.

And cable operators are seeking a meeting this week with Information Minister Collin Campbell.

They want to air concerns about reports that FLOW is trying to obtain a license to provide island wide cable service.
