Movie pass??

[acker1]

What is 'movie pass'? I am being charged for it every month and have no idea what it is or how to use it.

Thanks

movie pass is the Blockbuster movie pass...formerly Dish Platinum (the HD extra add on pack)
It was $10 under PLatinum...they added the BB option for free

As Iceberg pointed out, what used to be Dish Platinum is now called Blockbuster Movie Pass. This includes the same channels that Dish Platinum had, and also a disc-by-mail through Blockbuter's by mail service at no additional cost to you.

If you go to your account online at dish.com, in the bottom left you will see the option the register for blockbuster by mail so you can start getting discs by mail

According to the Q & A, discs can only be sent to the acct address. We live fulltime in a motorhome & travel all the time so that won't work. I don't have a broadband connection either. I use a sat dish for internet and it has limited bandwidth and is slow. Are there any other benefits to 'movie pass' that I get for my $10.00 per month. If I cancel it what else will it affect on my DISH? Channels?

Thanks
