Never mind. I misread your post. But I did think about it some more.
Even if you had (or do) get a number, I seriously doubt you'll EVER talk to someone of substance.
You'll just get someone else (Winback team??) who will "buy you off".
Smithsonian HD dropped and replaced with Crime & Investigation HD

In my 2nd month of HBO/Starz and Platinum HD offers, which has given me enough time to know that I will not miss Smithsonian HD.
Loyal customer? That's me all the way!
Unfortunately, no such offer currently listed for me.
Hemi, you might not be such a bad guy after all, even if you don't like PBS. lol

Is the HBO/Starz deal the same one that requires a 24 month commitment?
No, HBO Starz deal didn't require a commitment, but the Loyal customer offer requires 24 month commitment
Try this
Go into your account, Go into programming, add something to your programming Like "sports pack" or something , Then click on review and order. "don't worry it won't add the sports pack yet" Right after you click on review a window will pop up with 2 offers, If it doesn't then you don't qualify for what ever reason. Then just cancel your order,or go back.
If you get the window , STILL go back, Unclick sports pack then hit review and submit, The Offer screen will pop up again, and then you can chose if you want any, Then you can submit. Then you will get your offer. Or ,Just Call E* and see if you qualify for any.
My page shows 24 month commitment for the $10 off for 12 months, but the HBO/Starz doesn't.

I don't have D* so I have no way of seeing what you are seeing. I was referring to not seeing HD indicted on the Smith website. Sorry didn't realize that it was an HD only channel. I'm now back to the belief that it is hard core negotiation with Showtime. This is after reading the link from The "S" channel that was given.

Thats too bad you couldn't get it. My guess is because you still in some type of offer. Keep checking though.Thats correct , NO commitment on the NEW HBO and Starz Offer.My page shows 24 month commitment for the $10 off for 12 months, but the HBO/Starz doesn't.
BTW, thanks to this thread, it reminded me to look at the HD Extra Pack I had been paying DirecTV, and realized I had not been watching those few extra HD channels for a long time, so I went online and removed it, got credited back for the remaining month's cost.
Too bad I could not call DirecTV to complain and get $20 off for a few months like Hemi did from E*

According to the original plan, Smithsonian was expected to add only 75-100 hours of new programming per year. By even the most generous standards, that's enough for about two weeks.
Thanks. But no offers for me. Can't add anything, I get: "Changes to annual subscription services are not available through online support. To make changes to these services, please call 1-888-884-2741."
And they're still showing me with one ViP722 & two 508s. In fact, I have two ViP722 HD DVRs and one 508. I guess I'll check the receiver and smart card #s to see if they match. Any reason to try to correct this error?
HEY, you just saved me $120! Thanks! I just signed up for the $10 off for 12 months; going to click on the HBO and Starz savings next. Very nice.
Me too Thanks!!! The $10 per month required a 24 month commitment. No problems for me. No cable in my area and no locals on D*. Dish is my only real option. E* was offering the upgraded HD for 3 months , also. However, when I clicked the link there was no place to sign up for it. I already have it and was hoping to get another $10 off for 3 months.
You have to look at Your account. Not the website for New Customers. Its different. HBO and Starz for Exsiting customers, If its being offered to you . Then no commitment, If you accept $10 off for 12 months that comes with a commitment. Log into your account Look under Programming Offers.
Ok. Since I had three months Starz, HBO and Showtime that ended late december, I did not get an offer.
I have absolutely nothing and have been with E* since August 1998. I'm guessing the only ones receiving offers are those not already under commitment. I went HD last year so still have a year commitment left.
Nada
Nothing here either but then I'm also an HD absolute pack w/ cinemax for a cent. And there's no price change on my bill yet either.
