^check the "New Announcement" channel

apparently they're encrypting their digital tv services and channels can only be viewed with valid access cards when they're done...

[M_2NR]

oh right...

will do. But i eh get mines yet. I guess I have to call them >_>

i just emailed them... but i have a silver box... that has access to this smart card thing? i gone dig up

They literally replied already
They said not to worry and they will be calling customers who didnt get he card yet at the end of the month

[*$kїđž!™]

would it help in any way to improve the quality of the feed?

anyone?

anyone?

Hope the quality remains the same as well as the price!

[*$kїđž!™]

anybody had any disruptions in service this afternoon?

did u guys input your card as yet??

is there any difference in picture quality?

[LikaStick]

put in the card on Thursday....didn't notice any difference in quality....
a couple of channels were down today....and some had no audio....

[geodude]

i ent recieve nothing yet, on another note i called asking when my year will be up and what would be the price to renew for another year, and i was informed that the new price is something like $1800.oo which they say is for 9 months and we are getting 3 months free.

i personally think this sucks so much because at first i paid like $1600.00 which was for installation and one year of service, as a result i expected to pay less that 1600 as no installation is required, as its only a renewal of service,
this sucks

[*$kїđž!™]

yeah thats true geo....u should be paying less to renew your sub ...not more......

I mean we lost starz and showtime and plus there is no installation to be done....

[M_2NR]

how much does basic flow cost? 210$?
How much money u saving?
~700$ for the year.
If you all didnt realize, the 1200~ we paid, that subscription was a test bed to see if the service was viable.

[shaneelal]

You have to remember that the original prices were introductory prices to lure customers to their product. Also heard that LMN requested that the service improve their security/encryption if GD wants to keep broadcasting their station hence the reason from the cards to customers.

[Damien]

after my yr with greendot down i going back to flow sheit that i not paying more for them little bit of channels

[geodude]

i had directtv before and i think i was paying 310 per month but i know their basic package is 210 and i wouldn't mind going back to them because its only a little extra for more channels and a huge difference in picture quality.

[*$kїđž!™]

blink entertainment around too

[Chimera]

just saw that i paying $275 amonth for greendot 512

and well this is a normal speed test

[M_2NR]
