On Demand Free Movies?
Every "Free" movie I have tried to watch tells me a subscription is necessary! I search "On Demand", "Movies", "Free Movies", pick a movie, select "Watch Now" or "Record" and I get the message that a subscription is necessary. How is that free if I need to pay more to subscribe to something else? How do I access "On Demand" movies that don't cost me any more than what I already pay?

Hi There @niteowl777
Thank you so much for posting. We can help you here.
We understand what is going on. The free movies and shows are there for everyone to us, how ever, you need to be subscribed to the live channel as well.
If the movie or show is listed, but you are unable to view it, it might be that channel that the movie is playing for is not apart of your line up.
If this is happening on the channels that you are subscribed to, then you may want to consider refreshing your receiver. To see if the receiver and the account re-syncs back up.
Try the things and let us know.

Okay...I think I get it. The movies are "free" if you are already paying for them by subscribing to ALL channels..... NOT free.
I'm switching back to DISH as soon as my contract is up. DISH includes THOUSANDS of movies and TV shows FREE with a DISH membership. You don't have to pay extra for their free movies
