I've just subscribed to DirecTV, with a California address which qualifies for both CBS & NBC HD feeds. (It took a second call to actually get the LA feeds turned on.)
I asked about NY but was told "not without waivers." (I said "Thanks, but I'll wait to apply for waivers.") I tried calling the next day during a different shift hoping I'd get someone who'd activate 80 & 82 when I said "why aren't they on yet?" After twice being transfered (without more than a "hold on"), I was again talking to someone who not only understood distant nets & waivers, but who had a record of my previous call. Again, "not without waivers..." I told both of these CSRs that I have CBS HD from both NY & LA on my Dish account (I do), but they just stuck to the party line.
Before I make matters worse by having more notes about denials added to my account, I want to pick folk's brains here on the forum:
Would those of you who've gotten both the (CBS and/or NBC) East & West HD feeds (or simply the opposite coast's feed) please describe the details of how you succeeded.
Thanks
