In my area The Golf Channel has been out for two days. It seems the "free" preview on 410 is now over and they want an additional $2.49/mo just for TGC. This seems a bit ludicrous for those like me who pay over $100/mo to watch 3 channels with any regularity but Rogers have obviously done their demographic homework and figure they can get away with it. Pass the lube please.

Re: Rogers...bend over again
TGC was out for me yesterday - called and waited a hours (ROD was down also) then gave up.
called again today and they agreed to give me 12 months free (told them all me TGN friends got 12 mths free because losing analog channel 56).
still find it wrong to charge additional $2.50 for us whom pay $55 for cable and $100+ for all Rogers service!

Re: Rogers...bend over again
Mine was down two evenings ago. Called them and waited 15 minutes on the line. When the customer service 'consultant' finally got on, she told me it was a $2.50 additional service, I simply told them my package include TGC, upon which she just turned it back on within seconds.
Until next time....Last edited by Bellyhungry; Aug 25, 2006, 07:49 AM.

Re: Rogers...bend over again
It would be interesting to ask Rogers why the remove the Golf Channel due to the fact the ratings are better with MTV (their explaination to me when I e-mailed them) and now they have golf on demand? Hang on here....crappy numbers so I think I'll offer some more golf? Why would you offer more golf if the numbers for GC are already not worthy enough to be on regular cable? As we all stated in the begining this is cash grab and Rogers is following along according to plan. What a joke!!!!WHAT SITS ON MY CLIC-GEAR

Re: Rogers...bend over again
I understand see some people see this as a matter of principle - which I respect. However, there are a lot of things in my daily life I want to gripe about. I won't bother with the extra $2.50. There are many worse ways to spend $2.50, which I do every day.
I just hope they go HD.
BTW, whatever happened to Stephanie Sparks?
