I think you all have a misunderstanding, I have always had AMC until Dish dropped it. I have had the 200 package and only recently moved to the Welcome pack which also had AMC (but not in HD) so please do not say I did not have it to begin with.
thanks
OK, I understand now why you mentioned the AT200 minimum. Did Dish ever replace those AMC Network channels that were in the Welcome Package?
I didn't think the Roku deal was still being offered, but I wasn't interested in it to begin with. Unless you get some kind of confirmation as to why it was disallowed, we may never know.
you should have gotten a free roku then unless they are not being offered anymore?
Just got off the phone with loyalty and they said I would be getting my roku in 7-10 days. All I did is ask if I qualified for the free roku offer in lieu of the channels no longer available in my package AMC, IFC etc...
I guess it's wait and see when and if the roku shows up

I can verify that it is still being offered as well. First CSR I talked to transferred me to an "account specialist" who didnt blink an eye and offered it immediately. I have AT250 + BB@H so not sure if that was any variable. They told me it should be at my house within 5 days.
No great deal lasts forever. This, too, will come to an end and I'm sure we'll hear more complaints.
BTW, anybody besides me wonder why they have so many refurbs?

Someone bought one without wireless network in their home, someone bought one and their internet is too slow, someone bought one and didn't like the service.... All perfectly "safe" reasons if you end up with one of these refurbished pieces of hardware.
afaik,if you meet these requirements you will.
Sub to a package that has/had amc,ifc,we
You watched one or more of the shows on those channels and are now missing them
You have wifi internet
You do not already have a ps3 or roku,or other streaming device
you have a valid credit card to sign up with roku (no charges just to get activated)
Call this number 1-888-581-1972 ask for loyalty
Sadly, not entirely true...I met these "requirements" and was told initially by chat that I do not qualify. Then I called and was told "sure, no problem" but nothing came in the mail. One week later I called asking what happened and was flat out told "You don't qualify, only people who had 200 package and more qualified". So, No to the welcome pack people and (I assume) No to the HD only package people who had some of these channels or any other package that I do not know about that had these channels.
At this point I am just more annoyed at how dish handled this process than actually losing AMC.
Only other tips I can offer.
State that you watch Breaking Bad,Mad Men,Hell on Wheels,and The Walking Dead.
As a last resort threaten to cancel.
That said not everyone will get a roku but,most will get at least a credit or ppv certificate.
