Cancelling Newsmax?

DTV doesn't pick up anything, you own everything but the receivers. If you don't take any returnable receivers to a UPS/FedEx store to scan them in you will be charged the NRF.

I agree, after Directv has already cancelled One America News, if they cancel Newsmax I will no longer be a customer.

If you cancel Newsmax tonight we will cancel our subscription with Direct Tv tomorrow.

That is a rather arrogant attitude for customer relations, especially for a company that is bleeding customers, with a smaller customer base every year.

They dropped Newmax.  I'm definitely cancelling but the site was acting slow.  They are acting like it was merely a negotiation, while they wouldn't give Newsmax an equitable fee even though they pay all the liberal stations much more than what Newsmax was asking, with most of the liberal fake news stations far below in the ratings.  This is totally censorship of conservatives.  We were contemplating dropping them anyway, but this was the nail in the coffin.  Next is our very large cell ATT cell plan.  

Thank God I only have TV and wireless! I have someone looking into this matter. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN MY LIFETIME! I'm getting as far away from this company as I can get!!! Forget OANN and NEWSMAX!!! I refuse to be treated this way as they steal my money! Don't care if they reinstate both I'm out!!!

Direct TV is NOT negotiating with Newsmax. In fact, they told Newsmax that Newsmax would never be on their platform again.  Direct TV has 22 LEFT news channels, and now,  and with the replacement of Newsmax with The First, they have 1 Right news channel. The reason for the split was that Newsmax wanted what Direct TV gives EVERY LEFT leaning news channel, even the ones with no viewership, carriage fees.  Newsmax is the fourth most viewed of the cable news channels and they asked for what Direct TV was giving ALL 22 of the liberal new channels. Direct Tv would not give them the carriage fees and allowed the contract to expire. ONE Conservative channel and 22 liberal channels. Sure, AT&T really believes in giving customers access to all views.  Last April, Direct Tv got rid of OANN, giving no explanation for kicking them off of their platform.  It is obvious that AT&T's actions were political discrimination and censorship. Left Censorship, pure and simple.

Good bye Direct Tv.

Try looking into the reality of the situation before flying off the handle.

DirecTV is not cancelling Newsmax.

DirecTV and Newsmax are negotiating their carraige agreement. Newsmax wants costs to be paid that DirecTV disagrees with. If an agreement is not reached by the deadline, then it is up to Newsmax if the feed is pulled or not. If that happens, they can still continue their talks and channel would be back when a new agreement is reached."

Well that was not true. DTV did drop NewsMax like it did OANN. 

Carrying the DTV propaganda is not really doing your credibility well.

I left DTV when they dropped OANN. I also dropped AT&T and went to Patriot Mobile. Same plan for a 1/3 of the cost. 

I use TIVO OTA and with the antenna and all the streaming services I have more than double of channels and programming all for FREE. TIVO does everything the DTV DVR did with commercial skipping of OTA shows. 

@haulerboy_6  They will send you a box for the receiver and remotes. The dish itself is yours to do with as needed. I used my dish mounting to mount an Antenna where I get over 35 channels FREE. Get a firestick and download all the apps you will ever need. 

I have been a Direct TV customer for over twenty years. I am very upset with Direct TV in cancelling Newsmax.  I guess it’s time to look for alternatives. It seems ATT only targets conservative news. Shameful!

@Juniper I am very happy with my TIVO OTA and streaming apps. I only came back here because of the DTV now dropping NewsMax as well. Offering people options to still view the shows they want for a better cost and having choices. 

Go woke, go broke!

Conservatives have had it with your discriminatory decisions. YOU are NOT negotiating with Newsmax, quit lying! I have been a customer of ATT for over 30 years and will no longer tolerate your facism! Reinstate NEWSMAX and OAN! 

@gil47 Look at my other posts and you will see some options such as the TIVO OTA and many streaming ways to view shows. Look also at the firestick
