Most likely your channel 8 is owned by Nexstar that is in a contract renewal dispute. Unless you have been a customer in good standing for 2 yrs you are not eligible for a free move and that only requires a 1 yr contract.

Not true. I have had direct tv for more than 2 years. Still charged me a moving fee

Then there maybe another reason why you didn't get a free move.

You have to have at least 12 months since your last move or original install, of active service (not suspended), and account in good standing to get a free movers order. If you got charged, one requirement was not met.

Also, no contact guarantees any specific channel. They don't own them so would be impossible to promise you any channel. All TV provides have a clause in their Terms of Service stating as such.

If your channel 8 is not there because of the Nexstar dispute you could go to www.directv.com/tvpromise and get a one-time $10 credit off your bill! All you have to do is go to the website and select how your service is provided and then your zip code. Then it will search to see if you are eligible for the credit. Then follow any other instructions that it gives to you. If you are eligible then you will receive the $10 discount. Hope this helps.
