Is U-Verse planning to carry the ACC Network?

Not heard of any plans and do not expect them to offer it. They currently do not been support ESPN3 and several of the other channels.

For DirecTV Satellite, call 1-800-531-5000.

For DirecTV Stream, call 1-888-429-4023.

Thanks Beany!  I'm not too up-to-date on all of the streaming services, plus I'm a creature of habit, so I tend to stick with what (little) I know.  

 

But I'm definitely doing my research, so when this 1-year commitment runs out, I will probably make the switch.

 

Have a blessed day!

No idea. Why not post in the U-verse forum? Maybe someone in the correct forum might have some insight.

For DirecTV Satellite, call 1-800-531-5000.

For DirecTV Stream, call 1-888-429-4023.

Unbelievable!!!!!  This is the only network as of now that will carry the Clemson Tiger's football games.  They are the National Champions and you are going to deny their fans to watch the game!  You will LOOSE!!!!!  Customers - switch now.  I will before Thursday!

ACC Network is an ESPN channel. I have the Ultimate package so why is the ACC Network not included?
What is the Sportspack? I went into my account to add Sport Channels, and it does not allow me to do so.

People who went to College in the ACC territory live all over the country. It should not be available to just the ACC territory.
I've had DTV for 25 years and this is not acceptable.

Please advise how it can be added, and the cost.

What determines what is in their viewing area? I live on the East Coast, but in a state without an ACC school. I assumed I was getting it, but I’ve got nothing at the moment. I’ve called customer service twice, and although very polite, they didn’t seem to be provided with any information that could help me with the issue. They were left to guess.

This is not a solution.  Get ACCN or we all switch!

I agree.  Very upset with uverse for not carrying this and still cannot watch CBS! I do not think they want customers to stay with them because U-Verse is more expensive than Direct TV for them to operate. Direct TV has the ACCN channel but still does not have CBS.

They want you to have a hideous satellite or contact another company.  Not getting the channel anytime soon and still don’t have my local CBS channel who also broadcasts games.  Live TV and sports are the money maker in TV because less likely to be watched on demand and therefore skip the miserable commercials.  Genius business decision right here at football season.  Hate the thought of changing but switching to Roku and will take all the other none TV services away also.  Not paying astronomical amounts any longer for hundreds of crap channels never watched while not getting all of what I already pay for and other additions that are common sense expectations.

I live in Atlanta, which in smack-dab in the middle of the ACC territory with GA Tech being located a member of the Conference and located here, and U-verse offers subscribers the BIG 10 Network and the Longhorn Network, which don’t have any of their member Universities within 500 miles of our viewing audience (just some Alum). The ACC will now broadcast their games on their network, which means if fans of GA Tech want to watch their Team play WE HAVE TO HAVE THE ACC NETWORK. I would add that I would hope AT&T would offer this Network to everyone as the ACC has shown over the past several years that this Conference has produced some of the top Collegiate Athletics in the entire Country:

 

  • The ACC has won seven national championships in football, men’s basketball, women’s basketball and baseball since 2015. That is the most of any conference and the next closest conference has four. The ACC is the only conference to win each of those four titles over that stretch.
  •  
  • The ACC's seven national titles in those sports have come from six different programs – Virginia men’s basketball (2019), Clemson football (2018, 2016), Notre Dame women’s basketball (2018), North Carolina men’s basketball (2017), Duke men’s basketball (2015), Virginia baseball (2015).
  •  
  • The ACC has won more football national titles than any other conference since 2013 (three of the last six) and more men’s basketball national championships than any other league since 2015 (three of the last five).

AT&T has already contracted with the ACC Network to Broadcast on your Direct TV, so it makes no logical sense that you are not going to offer it to your U-verse customers as well. The time is running out to get this done. If I need to speak to the Office of the President, please advise.



...and you didn’t even mention soccer (men’s and women’s) and softball. Which would plus up the National Championship numbers for the ACC

I know it's not a panacea, but I have noticed that some of the ACCN+ stuff is streaming via the ESPN app.

 

Hopefully this means the "talking heads" shows are the only shows that are missing and the football games won't be.
