| | I'm just a guy that likes good deals and HD and wanted to share the with everyone. I pretty much have been a lurker for 3+ years, but visit the site every day. I did get a good laugh about being a plant though....

Just called and got it as well. Already had AT200 with DVR advantage, HD, locals, and Showtime and was already on paperless and autopay. I just asked about the Cinemax promotion and the CSR said, "you mean the Cinemax for a penny"?
Thanks, hdhead.

Thanks for the great tip!

I have DVR advantage+HD. I was already on both auto-pay and paperless billing. I called the 800-333-dish number. The CSR was aware of the program and when looking up my account said since I had both I would get it for .01 per year for 2 years. The entire call was under 2 minutes... I'm happy.

must have made a mistake because if you had cinemax during the past 6 months, you are not eligible. I have paperless billing, autopay, and cancelled
cinemax 2 weeks ago and still qualified for this!!
Keep trying, you will get this option....rolou21. |

(03)Daisy A. just signed me up via the online chat, i have autopay and dvr advantage.
I captured the transcript so here are the terms and conditions as pasted to my chat session if you care to look them over. (several things make me think I don't actually qualify, worst case their system might catch this and I end up billed at regular price and have to cancel)
Before I signed up: Quote:
Customers must sign up for AutoPay with statement suppression (Paperless Billing).
If a customer has either AutoPay or Paperless Billing, but not both, they can still qualify if they sign up for both.
Customers must not currently have Cinemax, or have had it in the last 6 months. Customers must not have participated in either of these offers before.
| After I signed up: Quote:
This offer is valid for two years; after the first year the system will auto-renew Annual Cinemax for a Penny.
If a customer cancels AutoPay with Paperless Billing, they will no longer receive Annual Cinemax for a Penny and will be charged the full price. Customers must call to cancel Cinemax to avoid being charged the full price.
If a customer discontinues AutoPay with Paperless Billing, waive the $5 Downgrade Fee.
Customers cannot package Annual Cinemax for a Penny with other premium channels.
| Edit: Checked my account online, they signed me up for paperless billing.
