Dish would have had to raise prices or lose profit to cover the mandatory % that HBO required. It's very easy for you to access HBO now through other providers a la carte, or directly through HBO now, so why would any company make that deal?
Also canceling when my contract runs out.
I will have to leave DISH, if it doesn’t come back on. And I really like dish, but have to have HBO.
Southernmel7, we would hate to lose you as a valued DISH customer. We are working to reach a mutual agreement to restore the channels as soon as possible. For any updates as they become available please visit www.dishpromise.com.
I've been a loyal customer since Charlie shot the first satellite in outer space, but my patience is wearing thin. If nothing else, not only should you not charge me for services you're not providing, but you should discount the premium channels I'm subscribing to. The free replacement is a joke. I'll consider breaking the contract if not resolved soon - as far as I'm concerned, you're in breach of the contract for not delivering the content.
drscottd, we do appreciate you being with us for so long and I understand these contract disputes are frustrating. I'd like to review your account and see what options we may have for you. Please send me a private message with your phone number and 4 digit security code.
