Pick 4 premiums free for 3 months

[jmccurrytech]

Showtime and Cinemax is all they'd give me:

Showtime - 3 Mo ($13/Mo) 07/09/13 10/09/13
Cinemax - 3 Mo ($13/Mo) 07/09/13 10/09/13

Got everything but HBO ,which I was already getting at 1/2 price for 6 months. Did the same on my 2nd account for my parents. The Premium channels must be losing a lot of money to be able to afford these 1/2 price premiums and 3 FREE months to all the subs who ask for them.

Is it the channels themselves that take the hit, or is Dish taking the full brunt of these free/half-price offers? I asked before but I guess no one seems to know.

IMO it dish because other operators are not running this kind of promo. But when these premiums do free preview generally all operators gets it.

Dish might be successful in there half off offers getting some subs to stick with premium.

I think the 3 months for free is a summer promotion. This is always the worse time of the year for viewers. That is why cable/sat providers always have really high appealing programing then. Now I complete agree on the half price promos. I feel they probably make a little money still but not a lot.

Same here. Just did the chat and gave me Starz, Showtime and Cinemax for three months. Offered me Hbo for 1/2 price ($9) per month but I declined. Great deal.

Did you have to sign a contract for the hopper w/sling? Was that an upgrade on a hopper you already had or an extra hopper?

The HWS upgrades are now free for some customers so you obviously qualified as one of those customers.

All receiver upgrades require an updated 2-year agreement.

Did you use chat or just call in on the phone?

 

[broeddog]

I did have to agree to a new 24 month contract which wasn't an issue for me, the Hopper w/sling was to upgrade one of the Hopper 2000's I have had since they were first put in service.

Then I did it again and asked about the free premiums, and the rep offered me BB@Home half price, which I took... and then the rep said: Well I will give you one of our premiums free because you are a valued customer, EPIX...
