Free Premium Channels for 3 Months

On Saturday 11/13/2010 I was contacted by telephone that the 10 premium channels package was being added to my FIOS package for free for 3 Months.
As of today 11/17/2010 no channels have been added.
If for some reason I am not illegible for this package,why would Verizon call me and verify a lot of information.
There was three or four calls made before we actually made contact.
With the competition with Comcast and Satellite,this is not good Customer Service behavior

Free Premium channels?

I have noticed that pretty much all of the premium channels are active for me along with their on-demand. I did some searching on the internet cause i was worried i was going to be charged for these subscriptions that I didn't sign up for and i found the free previews till April 2nd (for HBO specifically) http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-at-Home/FiOS-Free-Previews-Movies-amp-More/ba-p/424701 Now it is April 3rd and It still shows free on demand for HBO still... I hope that you didn't expect an opt-out of every premium channel given during the free preview. Can someone please clarify, did the free preview get extended (specifically, for HBO) or am I going to have to call in and fight to not pay a subscription fee that I never subscribed to? I have just changed to Fios and our contract says that we get showtime for 2 years, it doesn't mention HBO or anything else. Thanks!

Premium Channel Suggestions...

I love my Verizon Fios.. I had the other.. I'm pleased with Fios.. however I cannot stand it's Premium Channel Selections..
Verizon's Premium Channel selections are horrible. I pay for all of the premium channels.. and there is not ONE movie I want to watch.. ok so HBO added avatar.. I've watched it.. now what.. nothing.. their HBO list is short, they show the same movies on Stars, Showtime, Epix, Encore all of their premium channels over and over and over and over, for years..... I mean years.. these movies like "Castaway" have been on premium channels for freaking years..... not to mention that they add to their "list of movies" Avatar.. behind the scenes as a movie choice.. really???? who cares whats behind the scenes.. ADD MORE MOVIES and change them more often.. I pay for it!!!!! .. I'm getting very annoyed at paying top dollar for NOTHING and in this economy saving my money helps.. So.. do I drop all premium channels and download movies on my WII through netflix for 9 bucks a month.. this is sooo tempting.
I also think there are classic timeless movies from the 50's 60's 70's that should be aired on a premium "Classic's only Channel" Movies like Summer of 42, Love Story, or old Elvis/Jerry Lewis Movies. I pay for Premium channels.. and NEVER watch anything.. the movies I do see that I want to watch COST ME MONEY... my verizon Bill is already over 200 dollars a month.. why do I have to pay more.. it's ridiculous.. really..
Please.... ....

Jumpin68 is correct. Verizon has NOTHING to do with content. Just as Verizon is not the one who alter the movies. Content and elimination of picture information are done totally by HBO, Max, and Starz. (Showtime, HDNet Movies, and MGM-HD are the ONLY HD channels showing films as they were intended to be seen...uncut and unaltered. Any complaints about movie selection should be directed to the specific channels

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the actual channel provider decide what movies are available. Verizon is only rebroadcasting what they are receiving. Am i missing something here, not sure why Verizon is at fault for lack of movies you would enjoy.

I just bought the Vizio 42" screen with internet apps, and have been using netflicks as my movie provider ever since. You can't beat the price, or selection for $8 a month. And it's a flawless transition...if you have a wire-less router in your home, you simply enter the wep-key, and then the netflicks app, and easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Really...Netflix's on-line selection is far from exceptional. Hard to find ANYTHING worth seeing...because most studios don't want to license films to them. It's OK if you want some small indie flick, or a foreign film, or a cropped movie, or a box-office bomb.. Also, they do not offer full HD (only 720p compared to 1080i via OnDemand), and no 5.1 audio on the majority of devices. And the streaming itself can be iffy at times, depending on one's Internet speed. I use it...just because it's there and part of the disc subscription. But I'd HATE for that to be my sole movie provider.
That said, it is true that content depends on the provider and not Verizon. People should complain to HBO, MAX, and STARZ about content (as well as their policy of altering movies to eliminate picture information.).

Searching OnDemand for Premium Channels I subscribe to.

Hello,
I just switched from DirecTv to Fios. So far so good, minus one issue, when I search for movies through the search function, the only results I get are the movies available for rent or buy. This is VERY frustrating, especially coming from DirecTv who made it so easy to search.
I am subscribed to every premium movie channel, HBO Showtime, Ect.
Has anyone figured this one out? Or is there possibly a fix in the works? Or is this just how it is with Fios?
Thanks!

I just searched a movie on HBO (to which I subscribe) and the movie showed up in the search results in both the live area and the on-demand area. I'm not sure why you're not getting the result I am, but the search results do include premium channel on-deman results for me.

Free world calling for 1 Month - mobiles ?

I got the free calling plan for 1 month and tried to call a mobile overseas. It did not work but wanted me to buy some extra skype credit...if it said "free calling to mobiles and landlines" how come i cannot call ? (It is to an I-phone - don't know if it matters..anyone have an idea ?

I bought an app which was free. To get the full version I then paid for it. I used it for months and now it's saying I have not got the full version and I no longer have access to the full app like I used to.

Try contacting the app support of the particular app your using.
Most apps have an app support button on their app page within itunes.
If they wont reply within a reasonable amount of time and you feel like the particular app developer has cheated you, bring the issue forward to apple care.
Note that app developer have their own customer support.

the creative cloud free space is for lifetim, the 2GB, or for one month trial???

Just sign in with your Adobe ID at the Creative Cloud Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files. You can then use the upload button to upload files, or drag-and-drop files from the Windows Explorer/Mac Finder. Here is a video explaining the file upload http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-creative-cloud/uploading-files-to-creative-cloud/.
If you use one of the Adobe Touch Apps (Ideas, Photoshop Touch, Proto) then the files you sync with these apps are also stored in the same file storage, and are accessible from the Files page.

Adobe Media Encoder CC 7.2.0.43 still crashes after beginning of encoding - bugs for months now!

Adobe Media Encoder CC 7.2.0.43 is still crashing after beginning of encoding! In my case this bug exists for months now and Adobe is not able to get rid of its own programming faults! The user pays a lot of money for the license and doesn't get a functioning software! I spent days to get a solution now, but NOTHING of your suggested help works!
This is my 'support' history beginning in AUGUST (!):
Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2013 ...
Subject: Bug Report
Product: Adobe Media Encoder
Product Version: CC
Operating System : Windows 7
OS version: Service P1
Concise problem statement: Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Go to Premiere Media Export
2. Stating Media Export Parameters for ME
3. Starting ME
4. Define video title and path
5. Start Media Encoder CC rendering
6. ME states 'Preview not available'
7. Rendering aborts after about 15 sec.
8. Media Encoder CC crashes, no matter which kind of video! Every time.
9. Direct 'Export' from Premiere CC is possible with all the same parameters, but CC AME crashes!
10. Also installed Premiere CS 6 Media Encoder WORKS without any problems, but not the CC Media Encoder!!
Expected results: Media Encoder CC WORKING. This is still my expected result as a paying customer!
My steps to solve these problems (with Adobe's help) were / are:
- Cleant every suggested media cashes.
- Tried to render the sequences also without audio.
- Tried to render as one pass.
- Even if I try just to export ONE simple standard SONY PMW EX1 mp4 file which should never cause problems it chrashes, also without audio.
- Also if I clean all preferences and caches before, EVERY file type crashes, no matter if I try to export a video or a still picture.
- This is not happening in Adobe AME CS6 with the same files, but in CC!! CS6 still renders reliably with preview, but CC crashes without being able to show any preview.
- Held the Shift key down while starting AME. This should reset preferences and so on...
- Deleted suggested "7.0" directories as described in other forum posts concerning this topic.
- Logged out of my CC account.
- Deinstalled and reinstalled PPro, After Effects, InDesign, Flash, using Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. All is the newest version 7.2.
- Set GPU renderer to "Software Only". Some video cards have issues when GPU is set to "OpenCL" or "CUDA".
- Checked updates available for video driver. Latest is installed.
- Turned off "Enable Native Premiere Pro sequence import" in AME prefs.
- AMEEncodingErrorLog.txt doesn't have any content, not a single line.
NOTHING WORKED OR HELPED!

How to Remove Premium Channels Like HBO or Cinemax

I wanted to document this because nobody should have to go through the hoops I just had to. Sadly, I'm sure others have gone through much more. Follow these steps to remove channels you no longer want to pay for, or avoid paying for because their free trial is about to expire:
log in here - https://www22.verizon.com/ForyourHome/Registration/Reg/OrLogin.aspx (Note: This login page could be different then what you're used to signing in to. I have no clue why there are different systems that you can log into.)
make sure the tab that says TV is selected in the middle of the screen towards the top
select the add/change channels hyperlink towards the middle of the page
uncheck whatever channel or bundle you no longer what to have
select the Next button at the bottom of the page
review the Order and select Next
at this point I can't remember the rest of the steps, but they should be very self-explanatory
Also, if you're trying to get actual help via chat, go to the home page for Verizon FiOS and act like you're going to order new service. As you click around you'll find a link to chat to a rep. Click there and they can help you out just like any other customer service rep. I would just give the link if I could find it again. For being an internet provider, Verizon FiOS' site is TERRIBLE.

I have been going around in circles for like 30 minutes trying to figure out how to remove HBO. I tried what you said, but I don't see any link that says add/change channels.

I am about to go insane...when I tried to chat, I typed in my message and when I hit send, it said Chat no longer available, sorry!
The post you are replying to is over 3 years old. It is very likely Verizon has changed the structure of the pages and moved stuff, they do that all the time.
I don't know where you need to go since I do not have any premium channels that I could try to remove, but I would start at MyVerizon and click on the Shop button.

Problems with premium channels added

I've been having nothing but problems trying to add channels to my package. I went online yesterday & saw they were doing the 50% off for 12 months promo for their different movie packages and I went ahead and added the Showtime/Starz for $8.50/month. It never came on last night. I called and was told that my local center is probably closed & that it would work in the morning. This morning it still didn't work so I called the # given to me last night (1-888-978-2176) which got me nowhere. I was told my acct# is invalid and that I'm not even eligible for Fios in my area (which I've had for a year & a half.) After getting my address wrong several times, I was told I'd need to be called back (which I still haven't been.)
I then called 1-800-VERIZON and was told he didn't see anything about me adding these channels. I asked if he could go ahead and add them for me then and he said he could but it would be $9.99. I stated how it was $8.50 online and he said maybe it was an online promo and that he couldn't give it to me. I was then told that I could have Showtime OR Starz but not both. I told him that when you go to upgrade online Showtime/Starz for $8.49/month was clearly an option to which he really didn't seem to care and said that's not available in my area and I'd pretty much have to get each one seperately.
Sorry, part of this is to vent due to my frustration but another part is to see if this sounds right since I feel like I get a different story/response everytime I call customer service. I really wanted Showtime/Starz but I told him if this was the case to just sign me up for Showtime. Also if this is actually the case, that package should be removed from the options on the website. I also should've been notified that my online order had been cancelled.

I have the opposite problem - premium channels keep getting added without my permission or intention. I have a 4-yr-old son and I think he is playing with the remote while I'm at work. Apparently the FIOS STB will let you subscribe to any premium channels just by clicking a few buttons. So far I have had HBO and the Playboy channel and some Chinese channel (nobody speaks Chinese here) and something else.
I switched over from Comcast to Verizon's double-play last month, and now I'm really starting to regret it. It has been nothing but a headache, from adapters that don't work to this.

What happened to free pilot episodes for TV Shows?

There are some TV shows that I've either never watched, or aren't available to me because they air on premium channels I don't have. I know for a time, a lot of shows had their pilot episode available for free. It was nice to be able to sample the show before spending any money on more episodes or full seasons. One episode of a show isn't that pricey, but when there are 5 or more shows I want to see for the first time, it can get expensive, especially when some premium channel shows episodes are $4. And why don't they rent TV episodes for like $0.99? Some shows I do want full seasons of to buy, but others I just want to catch up on and watch once. I don't see why offering free pilot episodes would hurt, is there a chance that will happen again?

The point of this forum is to help folks get extensions
working or perhaps to find an extension that does a specific
function, it was never to focus on free extensions. Not quite sure
where you've gotten that idea from, but I've been a frequent
visitor to this forum for at least 6 years and it's never been "the
whole point of this forum".
When it comes down to it, when you get beyond very basic
functionality, it takes a lot of effort and knowledge to create a
really useful extension, if you're willing to put that effort in,
then please by all means post what you've done so that others can
see what you've done. Others are already doing their share as there
are plenty of free extensions out there, the Adobe Exchange lists
865 free extensions when I searched and filtered on Freeware:

Premium channels and QAM

If i am running through QAM without a settop box, should i also be able to tune into the premium channels that i am paying for? People have said that if the premium channel is airing for free, like during a preview special, you can tune into it (for the limited time of the special) - so i would think if that were the case, you should be able to watch it if you are paying for it. would the channle number be the same as it is on the STB?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

No. It is the only way they can make sure you only get what you pay for.
Encrypt all of the channels. Then use the STB to decrypt those channels you are eligible for.

Free Youview box for new BT infinity customers

Does anyone know how to get the free youview box for new BT infinity customers? Ordered new service on 12th Dec and called in later to check how/when I'll get the Youview box. The CSR told me that I had to call after the broadband was installed to arrange to get the box and I would have to pay £5/mo for the TV service but according to the BT site, it's supposed to be free for BT infinity customers and £5/mo for other broadband customers (+ the £49 activation fee for all customers).
As I understand it, the offer ends 31st Jan but my infinity broadband is not scheduled to be installed until this Friday, 1st Feb (after a whole lot of aggravation, wasted time, incorrect info and failed follow-up by various BT reps). I'm afraid if I call in afterwards, I'll be told that I missed the deadline to get the box and/or I have to pay the monthly fee even though I'm a BT infinity customer.
Since BT phone reps have been unreliable, can anyone provide info on this? Thanks for your help

I wasn't aware I had to do this when I signed up. So you're saying even though my line isn't installed yet and I'm a new customer, there's no way to get this if I didn't add this at the time of order even though I know this offer was active when I signed up? When I signed up, there wasn't an option to add free TV service for 12 months for Infinity so I didn't add the service offered at £5. Would BT really use loopholes and technicalities to avoid providing something they've offered and put up billboards everywhere to promote?
