For some reason, my cable company took my LP off one of my digital boxes.
Both boxes had it from day one.
I happened to check now to see what channel tonight's game was on and discovered all my LP channels were black.

I called, they fixed it. No answer as to why it got changed a week into the season.

It's probably just my cable company (Cox) but I wanted to get a warning out so people could check in time if they needed to. Especially those in Southern California that are with Cox.

Congrats! I hope it happens for you.
It's wonderful to be able to see every game.

Oh, Manu, I hope you do get it. That would be fantastic.

I just confirmed today that they overcharged me by $50 for LP, and they are "working to fix it." And since I'd stupidly already paid the bill (they also charged me upfront, when it was supposed to be in installments, so I didn't have to pay with my credit card, fucking assholes), I'll probably never see the money again.

So if it's not working tonight, I'll kick something. And probably sprain my toe. And that will be their fault too. Comcast sucks. TimeWarner sucked last year, and still suck for switching Houston to Comcast.

Well apparently League Pass IS ON BABY!! HAHAHAHA! At last!!


Oh man. Are you getting the broadband, too?
Don't know if they're offering it here. Still would be sweet, wouldn't it?

and its a lot cheaper than I thought it would be...

First things first though, I have to get Directv :lol

Costs are the following (in pesos):

Installation: $190
Monthly fee for basic Directv channels: $88
Whole NBA season on league pass: $120

My question is this, is league pass only one channel? I was under the impression there was more than one...

9 channels?? damn, apparently we only get one, which broadcasts 2 games per night, not necessarily the Spurs

For some fucking reason the Spurs vs Hornets game is blacked out for me. Just great. WTF.

I had the same problem. Called Time Warner and they indicated my account was missing a "tracking code" for League Pass - go figure. Hell, it was working 2 nights ago.

Thanks for the heads up!

Confirmed baby.

That's so strange.
I figured it was just going to be me, but I'd warn others, especially Cox people in my area.

I wonder if it's the individual carriers or if LP itself had an issue.

I'm like 96 miles from the SBC... so I'm blocked out from league pass... but I'm right on the Travis/Williamson county line in north austin... so it's a total crap shoot whether I get any non-national games. Even if I wanted to pay the $150 or whatever for league pass, it wouldn't help. Need to convince the wife to move to the next town north to break the 100 mile barrier!

Thanks for the warning, when I read this earlier I checked and they were also missing, message that I had to order it, which I had done so on October 31, I got two representatives until a very nice guy named Angel fixed it for me.

MaNuMaNiAc,
Have you confirmed if you also get NBA League Pass Broadband with that package? Since I now live in China, I no longer get NBALP, but if the broadband access is available I could sign up for my parents in Argentina and watch the games online from here. That'd be cool.

Gracias.

Can you just get a PO box in the next town over and use that as the address? :D
