did Dish network resolve their problem with FSN?
Not sure, but you got LP then you can watch it there. LP channel 578
ahh nevermind lol, just checked and the channel info says:
"FOX has pulled this channel after demanding an outrageous rate increase from DISH Network. Call FOX and ask for your channel back! 310-369-1000."
what a bummer... looks like I'm gonna have to switch
San Antonio Spurs
Update from practice: Tiago Splitter will not play in Thursday's final preseason game. #GoSpursGo
Maybe him and Bynum can go bowling and knock down a few beers
I like how DISH network is placing the blame squarely on FOX. It's more like, DISH network has refused to pay FOX the rate increases that they desire, and both refuse to negotiate to a rate somewhere in the middle.
I don't have DISH network, I have a network that isn't so cheap so as to eliminate a major local sports network due to some petty rate increases, so I'll be watching the game just fine.
If you want to complain, I suggest you complain directly to DISH network. The more people complain to them, the more they will be willing to negotiate a deal with FOX.
Otherwise you can forget ever getting FOX back. If nobody complains, DISH will believe that FOX does not bring in a sufficient amount of viewers and the more they will feel justified in dropping FOX.
We talked about this before, but for me Direct tv works great.
i think pop is holding out splitter as an advantage in the regular season!!! we got to have some sort of element of suprise at least im hoping
Yeah, TWC went through this negotiation stuff a while back as well, and we were looking at losing several fox affiliated channels if the new deal wasnt met by the deadline. TWC claimed to be hard-up when it came to negotiations, but when it came down to it a deal was met in the 11th hour and we didnt lose any of our channels, nor have i seen a huge increase in my bill. My bill is the same as its been, so TWC realized you have to spend money to make money, and realized they were going to have a LOT of angry spurs fans (at the least) who were not able to view the games on FSSW.
DishNetwork is trying to put the blame solely on fox, as a previous poster said, and the best thing to do is leave DishNetwork for somebody else. Call in and complain as well, you'll be surprised how much room the CSR's have to work with you as far as crediting your account because you are unhappy about your service.
Comcast threw Fox off their system because Fox hiked the price from $70M to $150, IIRC.
Dish will have the game for the Houston area. It will be on one of the Sport ALT channels.
Anyone knows the channel number on COX?
Where can I get a game feed? I dont live in SA.
I just voiced a complaint with the DISH s ...the jagoff on the phone said they are trying to negotiate a deal and they realize the nba season starts a week from today.
Told him I will be canceling my svc if it is not resolved.
Don't think it really matters to them-but we'll see.
FOX demanded a 50% increase in fees. I'd have told them to get ed, too. Dish also didn't "drop" FOX. FOX stopped feeding them.
How would you feel if your bank just suddenly jacked your car payment by 50%? Oh, and that fee increase WILL be passed on to you at some point, so be careful who's side you chose in this fracas.
League pass broadcasting one week, starting on 26th. So, anyone who has Dish network, this is good.
I wonder if I get that channel on this U-Verse my dad has at his house down here in Dallas. I'm in Texas for a few weeks unfortunately, otherwise I'd be able to watch it at home on LP in Myrtle Beach.
