After ordering the Voom pack and the $100 second dish I got to thinking about the free dish included with the waiver for CBS HD.
So I called and was denied. This is probably because of my mailing address. This will only make sense to people in Michigan but I have a South Lyon,
MI mailing address which is in Oakland County, the same county as CBS Detroit.
I actually live in Green Oak Township in Livingston County.
I get "kind of" get CBS HD, probably 30 percent of the time on the first try, the rest of the time its flip back and forth, back and forth, get 49 percent signal strength. Sometimes it comes in, other times it does not.
Weather deppendant and all that stuff...the CSR could not do anything about it. This whole zip code thing is a royal pain in the ass, we run into things like this quite a bit, mostly with the insurance companies.
Who else here has gotten a waiver and how tough was it?
I can live with it as it is, we watch Football and a few other shows on CBS and know once we're locked it we stay on the channel.
However, it would be totally useless with a DVR since I would not get a signal 100 percent of the time.
Plus hey, its saves me a 100 dollars.
