If I just lost ESPN Classic I'm going to go ape .
I live in an apartment complex so I am not able to get Dish Network or DTV. Manager won't let me.
I have the basic channel package (up to channel 78 with 99). Over the past several weeks the have just taken off ESPN Classic (yesterday) and GSN. but the rates stay the same.....which really irks me. They have these nice channel packages for new customers but they offer nothing for established customers in the way of better channel packages. I sent them an email saying this. I don't have a problem paying for cable, but I want to get my money's worth and not gradually lose channels and pay the same price. At this rate it wouldn't surprise me that they somehow charge for local programming as well in addition to other charges
Why don't they offer something better for those established customers (besides telling me they are a monopoly). I looked at Grande and they supposedly aren't in my zip code. AT&T doesn't have anything at my address either except phone service according to their website.
I wish we had better choices when it comes to our telecommunication needs here in San Antonio.
I wish like we high Verizon Fiber Optic here in town....it is the about same price 42.99 for more then double the channels and they have FiOS internet with speeds that would make my Road Runner seem like dial up for about the same price too.

I hope there is something good on 23.
Nope...just a statement saying that ESPN Classic was moved to channel 256. I have to pay to add it to my lineup. They did the same thing with GSN on channel 78...it is just a blank screen now.
Try calling them and inform them you are considering Dish Network or DTV. I have Roadrunner and Digital Phone but I was able to shave $80.00 off my bill and get 3 months of Showtime for free. I understand it will depend on who you speak to and whether or not they know your complex won't allow you to switch. My programming didn't change other than the Showtime offer but I feel alot better about my bill. Good luck.
I called TWC this week and told them I was switching to a dish b/c they were too expensive. They added Showtime and the Movie Channel to my lineup for a year, added a digital phone and lowered my bill by $40 (not including the $40+ I'll save cancelling my current phone service).
Thanx you Mijo and goliath......I will try that.
I don't usually complain too much.....I guess that is a downfall in some ways....but TW just irritates me when they do this.....they never sent anythime to me in my bill or a flyer telling me they were going to do these things, they just do it.
I lost espn classic in my room
I'd go DirectTV in a second but with HDBOX, digital phone, and roadrunner it is a good price packaged together.
There's not going to be anything to replace Channel 23. It's just going to be a dead channel.
Cheryl, wht do you need the managers approval? You should be able to hook up with Direct/Dish and just run the cable from your porch/balcony, to your set.
Might not be the prettiest thing, but it'll do in a pinch.
I hate blank screens. I saw that this morning. It's so lame. Good luck, cherylsteele. I'm on your side.
This totally sucks! The FIBA championships are this weekend and they're on ESPN Classic!
Direct TV and Dish Network both require Management's permission in writing to install a dish for the apartment or they will not install it. Management has said no, I asked them in the past.
On top of that my boyfriend does what satellite either.
Nothing is going right today it seems.
I have been suffering from bronchitis and a sinus infection all week. I went to Gonzaba Wednesday they gave me prescription, I took it to HEB marketplace and the Assistant who saw filled it out incorrectly, according to HEB. HEB calling to get verification and Gonzaba said they could not, I would have to pay for another visit.
Since I have no insurance until the beginning of September it is all out-of pocket. Meanwhile I feel like crap.
if you have digital cable it's not an issue.
I don't know about Spurschick, but I have just basic cable. TW wants me pay extra for upgrading. They have offers for new customers but nothing for established "loyal" customers.
i think she has U-Verse if i remember correctly. like was mentioned earlier, call them and tell them you are gonna switch to Directv if they don't give you a good digi offer. or just tell them you have been looking into it, and you want to stay with them but it's just out of your price range.
I have digital, but I don't have the variety package that they moved Classic to.
I think it's still an issue - unless you pay for the package.

Some apartments are really anal as far as what you have on teh porch/patio. I had a ing aparment comlex tell me I couldn't have a rocking chair on my porch because it wasn't real patio furniture.
When LJ rented a townhouse - they made him remove the pool table from the garage - insisting garages are for cars only (each unit had it's own garage - it wasn't shared). We complied and moved the pool table to his parents house at the time. Then they came back and said he wasn't allowed to have two boxes in his garage - they were not even big or messySome apartments are really anal as far as what you have on teh porch/patio.

Yes, some management companies are beyond anal.
God bless owning your own house...
that sucks, they haven't pulled that in austin. i pay for the sports pack though, which includes NBA tv. i only got it because a few years ago they said they would offer it at $2 a month, than take $15 off my monthly bill. worked for me!
A pool table in your garage? That is just wrong...for them not you. I bet if you stayed long enough they would have regulated the type of vehicle in the garage....that F-150 (or whatever) is built for the garage.When LJ rented a townhouse - they made him remove the pool table from the garage - insisting garages are for cars only (each unit had it's own garage - it wasn't shared).
