Channel 6 NBC

Why has the NBC  channel 6 been dropped from my package. Also the Hallmark channel 565. Also the Hallmark channel 565. Will we get a drop on our billing amount!

Local affiliate is owned by Tegna. They are in negotiations with AT&T (DirecTV and U-Verse TV) for the next carriage agreement. Unfortunately it has gone on long enough that Tegna decided to pull all their channels (as is their right) until a new deal is reached.

However that does not affect Hallmark Movies and Mysteries (565). That channel you get as long as you are in Select, Entertainment, Premier, the grandfathered package Preferred Xtra or the Movies Extra Pack (formally called the HD Extra Pack) add-on. If you have one of those options, what happens when you try to watch HM&M? Has any troubleshooting been tried (such as a red button reset)?

Hallmark is probably not in your channel package.  As I remember, it was made available to everyone by Directv as part of a "Covid bonus" but that has now lapsed. Anyone confirm that?
