You know that for sure? Just because Dish says that doesn't mean it's believable. They also said Disney was being unreasonable, yet the word here is Dish owes Disney back amounts which led to Disney shutting off HD feeds. Dish is showing a stubborn precedent, and the only ones hurt are...

Way off topic story that you reminded me of...I used to work for a store that was a UPS shipping point. A lady came in and complained that one of our employees gave her a porn chat number. The UPS number was 1-800-PICK-UPS. The employee accidentally switched the two words (800-UPS-PICK)...

My install date is Tuesday the 5th. Cutting it close, but at least I'm not going to miss Sons of Anarchy (or the handful of Husker games on Fox Sports from mid October on).

No, they want Dish to supply the channels that were advertised in the package they signed up for. So far, I've lost 5 channels I've watched regularly over disputes in the past several months. And I'm not even counting the RSNs lost from the Multi Sport package. Dish now has a track record...

Check what's on and compare it with HDNet Movies' web site. What I was seeing on FX before I left for work was HDNet Movies, only labeled as FX...like nothing was wrong.

You know, this is what ticks me off worse than them not having the channels. They are making it look like the channels are there, but when someone wants to watch a show on one of those channels and doesn't know about the dispute, they're in for a surprise (like, say, Tuesday night for Sons of...

The problem is, my bill is for 9/24 to 10/23, and I have a multi sport charge. And I'll bet that only those that call and inquire are getting that credit (if they do), just like most of us had to complain to get HD and platinum for 10 when they dropped the 10 HD charge.

BTW, did anyone else's guide still show FX this morning, with programming still being shown? Is this HDNET Movies now? Because I thought they had a deal (hadn't read the site yet) this morning because FX seemed to be there. I'd say that's pretty underhanded if they're putting a different feed...

EXACTLY! I have Multi Sport and Platinum HD, and now my "replacements" are channels I'm already paying for? What a joke. It may be good for those who didn't have them initially, but for the rest of us, we're paying 17 bucks more for what others are getting for free now. Time to look into...

That was what I was seeing on the end of the commercials during Sons Of Anarchy this week. Are you seeing this at other times than the commercials?

Interesting note...the comparison guide is missing the channels, but if you click on any package they belong to, it shows FX or NatGeo or the like.

And if you read my post, I said local Fox affiliates. In other words, the Fox Broadcast channel. RSNs have never had the LCS or WS. TBS only has divisional rounds. Look it up.

Actually, TBS gets the divisional rounds. Local Fox affiliates get the LCS rounds and the World Series.

I've gotten out of two contracts, one with Wildblue and one with Alltel, because they changed up their service midway through the contract. Wildblue went slower and upped their pings, and my Alltel aircard kept disconnecting even though I am 1 mile from their tower. Both times I contacted...

Well, I guess I'm going to have to keep a close eye on my channels. If we lose FSN and some Husker games, I'm going to have to switch. I hate to be the type that threatens to switch, but when it comes to the Huskers (and Sons of Anarchy to boot), I don't have a choice. They're going to force...

Well, there's 3 more channels of people getting screwed in HD. :D

The press release for Epix on Dish in another thread made it sound like Epix would be in the platinum package.

If they filed an appeal, wouldn't that cause any actions to be on hold until the appeal is either thrown out or ruled upon?

I'll defer to your knowledge. I just went off of how I read his work order. He may have written the wrong number. I just know I get my channels. That's what I'm more concerned with.

I called Dish after going through 2 reps online, and they set me up to get an upgrade to 129. This morning, the tech came out and put in a 1000.4 dish for 110/119/129, and kept my 61.5 dish as it was. I'm getting the new HD from 129, and keeping my 61.5 in place. From what the tech told me...

It took talking to 3 levels of support, but I have my 1000.4 dish to cover 110/119/129, and they kept my 61.5 dish on. I now have all the channels, even if my house does look like it's ready to make contact with ET. ;) Another advantage for me now is that if I get another snow that sticks to...

They confirmed for me that our locals are on 129 before I signed off on getting the new setup. For those of you working on changing your setup to get the new HD, make sure you ask if your locals are on 129! They weren't checking that until I asked.

And in my case (great plains area), it was because the locals weren't available on 129, because they weren't supporting our area with that satellite yet. So, we got the same 110/119 and 61.5 setup.

Well, it took 3 levels of support, but I finally have someone coming out tomorrow between 8 and noon to take me off 61.5 and put me on 129. I had to call a number, and I got the same info about being a top customer that someone mentioned in the uplink thread. After the lady on the line got the...

That's what it appears to be. Dish is even confirming that 61.5 won't have the new HD for a while.
