    HBO Max Black Friday Deal

    I got this deal through my Roku. This is the first time I have ever subscribed to any HBO product for various reasons including price and because I would usually wait for a free preview on cable or satellite to record any movies I was interested in watching. Going to the theater is so expensive...

    senior plan

    John, if you are not currently under contract then you can call to see if they will offer you programming and equipment discounts if you agree to sign a new 2 or 3 year commitment. Sometimes they may also give you extra perks like 3 to 6 months of a specialty or premium service. It never hurts...

    Where did TNT (138) channel go?

    If you haven't talk to a US based retention customer service representative and don't mind committing to a new 2 year agreement, you can get $20 to $30 off per month off most English packages. When I did it last year I also got several free months of the Sports package. Oh, you might ask for...

    Where did TNT (138) channel go?

    I was wondering why Dish included TNT in the new Drama & Classics Pack since it was already in all English packages including Flex. Now we know they quietly removed it from the Flex Pack.

    Drama and Classics Pack?

    Yes, this is new. I may look into it as I have the Flex Pak which doesn't have some of these channels. So, it is $6.00 for 9 channels which includes H&I, Comet, Laff, Sundance, TNT, Start, ION, MGM Drive-In, and FMC.

    Diginet Pack?

    I currently have the Top 200 package. When my promotion period ends I would like to move to the Flex Pack. I don't need the sports channels so the Flex Pack fits my needs at a more affordable price. My only hesitation is that I would loose the diginets, at least that is what the channel...

    Starz losing subs battle with Ergen looms

    I like this change however Starz Kids will loose some of it's appeal with Disney animated films going to Netflix in January 2016 if I remember correctly.

    Unable to view WPIX Channel 919 on ViP 211z

    Thanks again for your replies. I guess I will learn to live without it on that receiver. I did at least get a free PPV certificate out of the deal.
