CBS access

When will CBS return to Directv.  I am about to switch to another provider.  I have been with Directv since 2007 and the prices keep going up and stations keep disappearing.  First it was ABC Channel 53 and now it's CBS Channel 6.

Hi @Huggy. We don't want to see a loyal customer like you leave. We are working with Nexstar to reach an agreement at the best value while minimizing the impact of any interruption, no matter how brief. For updates, visit https://www.directv.com/tvpromise/ You may be able to stream certain shows and events using the station's websites or mobile apps such as ABC.com, CBS.com and CBSsports.com. Please meet us in a DM to provide you with further assistance with your bill. Luna, DIRECTV Community Specialist.

All TV providers have this problem with renewing the contracts with local and the nationwide channels so switching is a short term fix.

I am thinking of switching also. If I have to pay another site to get CBS ; why not? I am on a fixed income and pay over $200 per month. And going up.    Michael T.

They do not give me a break when I lose a station.

As stated before all TV providers including streaming have this problem so moving is a short term fix, all providers will pass on the increased cost to their customers.
