Blackout

Our local FOX station KLRT is blacked out.  I went to TVPromise and it did not offer me a credit.   How can I get a credit if it does not show up on TVPromise?

There is no guarantee you will get a credit if a local affiliate owner (Mission in this case) pulls their channels away. Channels are subject to change at any time. So there are none, especially locals, that are obligated to always be there.

You can call DirecTV and see if they will provide a one-time credit as a courtesy. Just don't expect this every time a negotiation comes up and the channel owner decides to play hardball.

When channel owners demand higher rates to TV providers, what do you think happens to our bills? This is a driving factor in the costs we see now compared to years ago.
