The only way to make your voice heard with the cable company is to hit them in the pocket book. I cancelled my Sunday Ticket when that supper fan nonsense came about and then cancelled my directv entirely...telling them the whole time it was because of superfan. they offered me all kinds of...

You have to hit them where it hurts..you can write emails til the cows come home. I'm cancelling premium tier channels with TWC until the bring espn2 in hd. The best effect is to do this before the WC. I cancelled DirecTV entirely because of their superfan package. You think I'm just one...

Yup..The sync was off. You could really tell during the opening peice. Also, there were at least two video glitches during the first quarter.

For those of you jumping up and down because DTV cut your superfan by 1/2, 3/4 or 100% this year..just remember, you signed up for this. You've told DTV that you are willing to pay a 50% premium for HD content. (~$200 for ST and $100 for SF) Unfortunately, next year you won't be getting this...

I love it! Everyone is toughting the $49 HD Tax as a great discount and can't wait to get it. If you didn't realize that unless you say no to this, next year you can expect to pay full price or even more than $99 extra. These charges never seen to go lower do they? If everyone had said no...

Ivonne, Are you a shill for DTV? Do you realize that no one cares about the red zone channel? This is not a bonus feature that DTV can charge me $99+ a year for. You also realize that the $49 rate is a discount DTV is giving to "quiet" its subscribers from complaining on boards like this...

Just say no! I hope you guys remember what standing up for your convictions means?? DirecTV just called me today and offered the 'superfan' for $49 and I said no. They said they would take off $5 for the next 6 months on programming and I said no. EVEN if they said, we'll wave your $99 for...

This $49 'goodwill' guesture will disappear next year I'm sure if you don't cancel your sub and let them know you're not happy. Next year the 'super fan' will probably cost $109. I've cancelled my sub to NFL ST and thinking of dumping DTV entirely because of this. More than just this...

I don't think waivers are working for anyone?! But, you only get the HD feeds if you live in a Owned and Operated market(O&O) I guess NBC owns your local NBC affiliate. It doesn't have anything to do with signal stregnth.

When we all switch to comcast! Have you seen the new onDemand stuff? Pretty cool. I think my local comcast is only charging $5 more a month for HD and I would get all the locals. Now because I just bought my HD receiver in Nov 04, I gotta wait. I have to pay for the second IRD and the high...

I just cancelled my NFL Sunday Ticket and saved myself $300+! Now I can go to my local sports bar and watch the games and for the same price get a couple beers a lunch for the same price.....Might actually meet interesting people too! :-) The CSR told me that Directv CSR's are getting...

But ABC won't pay to cover the Indy 500 in HD! Makes no sense...Or are more people watching softball these days and I'm out of the loop?

Use the website..Why wait to talk to a idiot?

BTW: DTV still doesn't carry TNT in HD so we can't watch the NBA eastern conf finals in HD. Looks like comcast carries it. Just another reason to dump DTV HD besides the $99 increase in ST. Why does DTV have the bandwidth to carry YES games in HD just for the NY market and doesn't have the...

Hmm, none of the guides list it as HD and I'm watching on DTV channel 87 ABC-W HD out of LA. Its definately in 480. You might be watching on a HD channel, but I can almost promise its not in HD.
