NHL Center Ice

[grb]

It seems to me you are expressing your opinion and complaining at the same time. Maybe you need to understand the difference between the two. So if you are saying all this stuff and know WE can't do anything about it, who are you really talking to? Yourself?

Again, if you don't like the product Dish is offering, choose another company that fits your needs! Then you can save all this time you have wasted on "expressing your opinion"...

There is a huge difference between expressing an opinion and asking for advice. Obviously, you just don't get it...

Even after I requested in an earlier post that you stop telling me what to do, you continue to do so. If I wanted advice from you I would have asked for it. So why do you continue wasting your time telling me what to do?

BTW, who is the "WE" you refer to? Have you now designated yourself as the chief spokesman and issuer of unsolicited advice for this forum? Congratulations

Asking for advice?? What advice are you asking for? You are complaining about the HD and price of NHL center ice on Dish. The only advice anyone can give you is go with the company that fits your needs! geez..

I somewhat agree here. I eventually just decided I wasnt happy anymore and paid to get out of my contract. TV is suppose to be fun.. the minute it isnt, you lose your escape.

I am ready to order NHLCI, so on Dish's web site it says to tune to channel 625 to make sure you can get that channel....makes sence, so I do.
On channel 625 in bold Numbers, it clearly says the Center Ice PPV event is $149.00
Do they have to honor that price?

 

[jldhawk]

On the phone with csr now, bet they change that screen after this call.

 

[jldhawk]

Just got NHLCI for $149.00 because of that glitch in their system, better hurry if you want to get this price. I bet they change that screen SOON.

They had to charge me $159.00 in 3 installments of $53.00 but are going to give me $10.00 adjustment off my 250 Package.

 

[crimpshrine]

Well there you go, grb...Here's the $10 off that you wanted sooo bad. I know I'm ordering!

Thank you for proving once again that you just don't get it...

What part of "If I wanted advice from you I would have asked for it" do you not understand?

 

[jldhawk]

Does channel 625 still show $149.00? Now that I have ordered the package all I see is NHL Network playing on that channel. I don't get the "Order now" screen.

 

[Visitor]

Nope - mine shows $159 now.

 

[ehren]

get this, channel 625 SD channels says $149 and HD channel says $159!

Can I get CI with an HD only package? If so, which one? I'm grandfathered in right now on the old HD Absolute.
If it costs me an arm and a leg to add CI then I may switch to Direct. However, I would certainly miss my Avs pre and post game shows.

Yes, you can get CI with the HD Only package.

Not sure what you mean by which one -- you get all available CI broadcasts (SD & HD) except for blackouts which are available on your RSN(s) or local channels. As you know, RSN's are not available with HD Only.

It will NOT help to go over to Direct for CI because they are the exact SAME price.

For HD you will get alot more coverage that Dish does not have.

MSG-Rangers
MSG-Sabres
FSNY-Devils, Islanders

So if you have HD Absolute do you still get your local teams in SD and HD? Or will thoses be blackedout.

Sorry what I meant was if I have to drop HD Absolute and add an Americas Top plus HD pacakge then I might as well switch. I know CI is the same price no matter what provider.

Direct may have those additional RSN's in HD, but are they going to turn them on regularly for CI? Comparing last year's schedules, it looks like Dish may have had more CI games in HD.

 

[jldhawk]

Was told that channel 625 still shows a price of $149.00 for NHLCI.

Jump on it as soon as you can.

Dish CI blacks out the games available in your area -- both RSN's and local channels that may carry the games. They also black out the opponents broadcasts of these games.

So you must have a Dish package that includes RSN's in order to see your local teams.
