How big is your......bill!

[scottabs]

You may have read my posts about where I upgraded to VaVaVoom and thought I was getting the old rate, but after the CSR's screwed around with my account I ended up on the new rates. Anyway..., I am curious what others are paying since the CSR claimed that everyone is on the new rate. Here is my current bill, and I am curious how it compares to others on the various packages:

01/29 - 02/28/05 Cinemax PlusPack $10.00
01/29 - 02/28/05 HBO PlusPack $10.00
01/29 - 02/28/05 VOOM IRD Rental $9.50
01/29 - 02/28/05 VOOM IRD Rental $9.50
01/29 - 02/28/05 MULTIRD $5.00
01/29 - 02/28/05 Playboy Hot HD $19.90
01/29 - 02/28/05 SHOWTIME UNLIMITED PlusPack $10.00
01/29 - 02/28/05 STARZ! PlusPack $10.00
01/29 - 02/28/05 VOOM $49.90

$133.80
(This is for 2 receivers.)

Did you make any changes to make your bill go down after the jump in rates?

Also, I am curious if anyone else has had their rate go up without making any changes to their account?

Cable Favorite $0.00
GRDVOOM $0.00
Marquee HD $0.00
VOOM IRD Rental $9.50
SPORTS $0.00
VOOM $39.90
Total $52.36

 

[DarrellP]

Bryan27, you beat me, I have 2 stb's so my total is $14.90/month more than you.

 

[scottabs]

Looks like I am the only one so far that has the new rates, even though the CSR told me everyone's rates had been changed.

I wonder if I call and say "Give me the old rates or I'm cancelling" if they will say "see ya" or "ok, we will put you back".

 

[scottabs]

Bump.....

I'm still curious if anyone has been successful in lowering their rates back to the original plan. The CSR obviously lied to me when he said that everyone is on the new rates.

 

[Ilya]

As before, I am paying $39.90 a month + tax (VOOM+HBO)
I've never changed my plan to preserve the original rate and the Charter Member status. I own the equipment.
It's been posted on this forum many times that if you change your plan, you may not be eligible for the old rate. My cel.phone company does the same thing...

Got you beat Bryan

 

[scottabs]

My problem is

a) I was told my new rate for VaVaVoom would be $79.95
b) "everyone is paying new rates" - not true.

 

[riffjim4069]

Va Va VOOM and 3 leased STBs: $104.90

 

[Shawn95GT]

I ordered last night and the CSR said at least 6 times that any change to the programming will be at the current rate.

Basicly, make a change, you'll get the new rate.
