It appears that Verizon FIOS Stopped Carrying WFN as part of their HD network. Now you need to subscribe.

Tell me more about the "Other Company".....I'm not paying $90 a month to get it back so they can kiss my ass.....

I'm glad I don't have the option to switch from "the other company" to FIOS...not in my area. :)

The other company in Mass? Or in RI?

Those are other, other companies.

I'm seriously considering dropping my FIOS TV package and going pure Internet, OTA, and Netflix. Working on a matrix of what will work and what won't in November.

I don't imagine that I'll be receiving a credit anytime soon for the discontinued programming.

If you lived in Mass, you had to get the most expensive package for WFN. We didn't have it included in the two lower-tiered Fios packages.

I still think Fios is exponentially better than Comcast. Switched 6 months ago and have been happy ever since.

I wish I could get Fios instead of Comcast. The picture quality is so much better and more channels for less money.
