What is Skinamax? I guess I don’t get that. I have their basic digital lineup, no premiums, and I get so many channels I can’t keep track, like, three public TV channels, five different Mhz channels, six Spanish channels (but, unfortunately, not Televisa), two OnDemand channels and I think about 10 different sports channels, including golf for when I need to nap. Don’t get me started on the number of children’s channels they give me. If your Comcast is like mine, you might want to call them and ask them if you get that channel, because sometimes they re-do the channel lineups and have to send a signal to your TV so you can pickup the new ones. Occasionally the signal doesn’t do its thing, and I have to call and ask them to resend. The last time they re-programmed, all of a sudden I didn’t get the History channel. So I called them and they fixed it in two minutes without me even having to boot the digital box.
I just called Comcast. They have no local number I can call. The person I spoke to said my basic package didn’t have History channel among the 75 channels I get in my ‘package’. And I cannot talk to a local to find out if in fact the settings are in error. BUT, the idiot I spoke with told me that for $40 more per month I could get an addition package which would include History channel and BBC America. I’m looking into the Dish Network deals as I type this! I can get hi=speed Internet throught eh phone company for less than I’m paying to Comcast monthly. The Comcast idiot tried to tell me my e-mail address would change if I dropped Comcast. I told her to change it anytime they wish, I have file backups that will allow me to update all on my addy list and the rest of their advertising I would not miss.
