Dish Network Drops Comcast Sportsnet California

[rainmaker]

I did get a reply from League Pass. They go by your IP address and not your zipcode. I have att.net for my DSL line and the IP address comes up Folsom, CA. I am keeping the league pass because I can enjoy many other games. Maybe dish will settle something soon with CSN-CA. What do you think of Suddenlink? We have been with Dish Network for 12 years. It is a lot better than cable was when we changed over.

Only solution I can think of is to contact a friend living out of the blackout zone. Get a refund for your league pass, and then sign up again for league pass broadband with your friends address and info. Everthing goes through your friend. Then, after you friend signs up, share the username and password. You can log in and watch games on your friends account, while in the blackout zone.

This goes back to what I;ve said in another thread. More than one person can use the same broadband account from different locations, but the account needs to be set up outside of the blackout zone.

Would anyone happen to have the form that you needed to fill out for the $150 gift card from Comcast's Drop the Dish promotion? I finally got my last bill from Dish and went to the site to fill everything out, and lucky me, the site is now down. Thanks for any help.

Does anyone have an update or new info on this? I've called Dish Network multiple times, and always hear the same "we're still under negotiation with Comcast. That's all it says on my screen..." I've talked to managers, supervisors and such, but there seems to be no point. Do you think Dish will ever get CSN CA back?

An agreement has finally been reached:

Same here. Was just about to embark upon another "give 'em he**" campaign but looks like they got it sorted out.

I really like my Dish service - only thing that kept me from jumping ship to DTV.

Actually have made it out to more games than normal this year so far. Not because of this, but just happened to work out that way.
