I got my refund from VOOM today !! It took only about 4 weeks to get. I got a check for $ 607.97. I had VOOM from day one, and had two receivers. Thank you VOOM. You were a class act, and I miss you. I still enjoy VOOM's exclusives on Dish Network, however.

I was told since several of my locals are on the 61.5 I would not be charged the $ 100. The CSR told me this before I even asked for the $ 100 to be waived.

I was thinking the same thing. I am not home so I cannot call. Can anyone please tell us exactly what the special offer dish network has for VOOM customers ?

I thought HDN News was one of the channels ?

How long of a wait does E* have for installation appointments ?

Could someone just verify this for me ? It is in effect $ 250 (after the activation fee) for a 4 room (2 HD) setup ? I am confused by this. First I heard the four room setup is free, now I am hearing there is a $ 250 activation fee ? How does this work ? Is it free or $ 250 ?

So it is my understanding you get a free 4 room hookup with 2 free HD receivers, but there is a $ 250 activation fee. So in effect a 4 room hookup with 2 HD receivers cost you $ 250. Correct ?

Yeah, if I can simply use my VOOM dish and just get new receivers and receive the HD pack I would sign up. I always used VOOM as a supplemental to cable anyway. Does anyone know if you can use the VOOM dish to receive the HD pack ?

If you sign up for the HD pack only (and the HD channels are at 61.5) can you simply hook up your VOOM dish to Dish Network receivers and receive the channels ? In other words, if I do not want core channels can I use my VOOM dish to receive the HD channnels only ?

Do you have to get a new dish to receive the Dish Network HD channels or can you still use your VOOM dish ?

What happens if you want two HD receivers from D* ? Can you get $ 400 off, or is the offer just $ 200 for one receiver and the other is full price ?

Remember this is the NY Post. The stuff they print is nonsense. Do not believe one word you read in that paper. This is not like Newsday, which is pretty reputable.

Well guys since AP and Reuters are now confirming that VOOM is done as of April 30 I guess I was right. I told you Newsday is a very reputable newspaper. I am sad, too. However, I did not go into denial as some of you did.

Everybody is entitled to have hope if they wish. However, I think they are just postponing the envitable.

I have lived in the Newsday area for 40 years now. I have read Newsday constantly, and they would not report a bogus story. This is not the NY Post that always has a bunch of nonsense. I know this Harry Berkowitz (Newsday writer) very well. He would not print this if it was not true...

To me it is kind of sad to watch you guys in denial like this. The board voted 15-0 to end VOOM tonight. It is a fact. VOOM, as we know it, is done. The only hope you have is if your Cable/DBS company picks up the VOOM exclusives that will be offered to other companies. Except for an...

Not happening. This is part of the article : In another major development affecting Cablevision, Adelphia Communications Thursday presented a bankruptcy judge with a handshake deal to accept a $17.6-billion joint bid for the company from Time Warner and Comcast Corp. Cablevision had stepped...

You've got to stop it. VOOM is done. The board voted unanimously to end the service. This is not a rumor. It is a fact. It is just a matter of when the shutdown date is. Newsday is a reputable source. This is not the NY Post.

Yup, that's all folks. The end is here, and VOOM is done.

BY HARRY BERKOWITZ STAFF WRITER April 7, 2005, 10:08 PM EDT The Cablevision board of directors agreed Thursday night to end chairman Charles Dolan's titanic struggle to rescue the Voom nationwide satellite TV service, a source close to the company said. The 15-member board, including...

Okay, then what in the world happend to WGN ? I thought we would be getting the channel in time for baseball season.

Yeah, what happend to WGN ? Baseball season is now here, and I cannot see any Cub games on VOOM. What happend, I thought WGN was coming to VOOM ?

I hope WGN is for everyone, and not just VaVa VOOM. Otherwise, there is going to be one angry customer here.

They list all the new channels, and it does not list WGN. I guess we are not getting that channel, after all. What a shame. They said they were getting it before, but did not deliver. :mad:
