I posted this in the bridezilla topic but does anyone else without an iO box having a problem where cablevision decided to block a bunch of the higher channels (like E, TLC, A&E, Travel channel, Animal Planet and some others..) It just says ' an iO box is now required to view these channels. I am SOOOO freakin pissed off, most of the channels I tivo are not working.. . They said they wasnt happening until Feb 09...
This has happened to my mom also!! SHe is pissed! They were not supposed to change it until 2009. She is going to call to complain!
Anyone that has cablevision should have gotten a letter. Or at least I did. It said that those channels, while still in my package, would not be able to be viewed after June 6 without a box. I have a box in my living room but not in my bedroom. As it is now, I can't watch things like Discovery Home in my bedroom but I can watch them in the living room. We decided not to have a box in the bedroom originally because the channels I watch at night - food, animal planet, tlc, hgtv - are viewable without it. But now that they are moving some of them, I think I need the box.... extra $5 a month, I might try to live without it for a while and see how I deal :)
