Dish PPV priceing, this is robbery

[mruk69]

Hey guys check the these prices for PPV Sports on the ppv site.
https://customersupport.dishnetwork.com/customercare/payperview/prepSportList.do

Take a good look at the currency. Bloody hell, does it include VAT.

No one is forcing you to buy PPV. And it looks like DirecTV has similar prices.

All that back haul from Europe isn't cheap.

 

[Cold Irons]

PPV=Optional. If no one buys it at that price, the price will go down.

Only robbery if you buy it! No one is forcing you. I have probably bought 1 or 2 PPV over 12 years, just not worth it most of the time.

Try individual ESPN Gameplan games. $21.95 each !

Still cheaper than actually going, and, for soccer games it's probably safer!

That isn't that bad if you really care about the game. I have purchased many PPV CFB games over the years. Didn't like the outcome of some, but didn't complain about the price.

You mean there's no refund if your team loses?
That just sucks.

Haha, now that would be good service! I'd even be willing to pay 50% more for a win or 50% less for a loss

Sorry. I guess you have to doubleclick to watch.

I paid around $40 or $50 for 3 or 4 games on the huskers last fall. Hate it when they are bad and not on a network

Yeah got my new Dish Bill in with the new rates the other half was not too happy.
