Relax. They are negotiating.
Fox is trying to force higher rates for carrying their sports channels by bundling it with the Fox news channel.
Dish, as always, bargains hard. They aren’t afraid to play hardball in order to get the best rates.
And, of course, if you call Dish to complain now they will give you a credit or make some sort of offer to you. They aren’t stupid.
I really would not prefer to pay higher and higher rates because my TV provider just rolls over for content providers and passes the increases on to me.
If this continues, there certainly will be a mass exodus from Dish Network.
I, along with millions of other subscribers seem to have a potential for a “Class Action” lawsuit since we have been but are now paying for something we are NOT getting. One of the MAIN reasons we have chosen Dish Network was to get the Fox news and sports channels. I EXPECT to get a reduction in my subscription fees effective Dec. 21st, 2014.
For now I will hold tight to see where this goes before pulling the plug on Dish Network all together.
