Did BBCA drop a tier?

[KAB]

Been on AT120 for about a month. At first, I assumed it was a free preview for the premier of Dr. Who. on 0/19. But, I'm still getting it. I looked around that time and could not find anything on the uplink reports. Just curious.

nothing on chan. 103 about a preview. If it did change tiers, Dish will get around to updating their website in about 6 months.

It was listed on channel 103, and on the free preview page on the Dish website, last month. The BBC America free preview lasts until November 3, just like the other free previews this month, but for some reason BBC America is no longer listed in either of those places.

Never heard of a six week free preview. which would be the case for BBCA.

Well, that is the way it was listed at the time, and I am still getting BBC America, in both SD and HD, with my Welcome Pack subscription. I highly doubt both of those feeds got added to Welcome Pack.

Now you've done it.

You guys just couldn't keep your mouths shut, could you?

I was hoping they wouldn't notice before all the Doctor Who's finished airing for this season.

Sure, as long as they don't notice this post and pull it, lol.

HMM is notorious on Dish for 4-8 week previews.

HMM?

Hallmark Movies and Mysteries. BBCA still alive in Dish America package as well.

If it was just on free preview and still showing up in lower packages, I'd say it's just an oversight. The free preview time lengths are still arbitrary - sure, most are a month, but I doubt there's a hard rule.

Weather Nation was originally listed as a six week free preview, and that one lasted for more than four months. (April 20 - August 27)

That is kind of beside the point for this one, though. Like I said in my earlier post, BBC America was actually listed on channel 103 and on the Dish Perks Free Preview page as 9/17/15 through 11/3/15. I would post a screen shot if I had one, but I didn't know that Dish was going to stop listing the BBC America free preview, so I didn't bother to take a picture of it.

Not an oversight it will end beginning of November.
