Is U-Verse planning to carry the ACC Network?

When can we expect to see the ACC Network on UVerse?  I am willing to wait a reasonable period of time but will change providers if there are no plans to do this.

In the meantime some cheap cord cutters carry it, have you looked into adding one temporarily , while keeping u-verse?

ATT has elected to carry it on only one platform, direct tv. Direct tv has 5 times as many subscribers as uverse, and ATT   probably feels if you really need the ACC, NFL and RED ZONE switch to direct tv. They are going to be ending the u-verse platform and replacing it with their new streaming service ATT TV. In the meantime if you like u-verse and don't want to switch, maybe look into a cheap cord cutter add on like sling, which carries the ACC

I waited and waited, but got tired of non-answers from AT&T management and customer support. Except for one customer support rep, none of them had even heard of the ACC network…
We live in Chapel Hill, and spent some time on forums and evaluating wired and internet-based options. After comparing monthly charges, quality and true resolution of streamed picture, Internet bandwidth, and the added complexity of having two TVs, we chose to do the following…
- we canceled UVerse, and signed up for Spectrum 400mbps Internet and Silver TV pkg (which includes ESPN and the ACC Network), including one set-top box and one DVR
- we supplied the WPS Wifi router
- we installed $35 Roku HDMI streaming devices on both of our TVs
- we downloaded (and are paying monthly subscriptions) for CBS, Hulu, Netflix, and HBO Go, all of which are easily accessible through the Rokus.
All of this cost a bit less than our prior bundle with AT&T.
Yayyyyyy

Thanks for the input and suggestion. Nice to have something about which DUKE and UNC grads can agree.

Not only will you never see ACC Network but it looks like you’ll be losing ABC Disney and ESPN programming too.

But don’t worry. I’m sure one of their puppets will be along to tell you how they’re “fighting for you.”

Really none of y’all know for sure if the Accn is coming or not and saying you do is a lie. The accn is an espn network and when they work out a new contract it very well may include the Accn on all att platforms its likely it will. This forum is full of people claiming to be in the know when they know no more than the posters asking the questions!!

Is Longhorn Network on different tiers in different areas? I know Spectrum has it, but if you're a legacy TW customer, you won't get it unless the account is converted to a Spectrum one.

 

I wonder if AT&T is pushing for higher tiers outside of ACC territory. It wouldn't make sense from an AT&T standpoint for customers in Seattle and LA to get it on a basic tier.

Is The ACC Network currently available to me on DirecTV in the Denver area? Channel 612 does NOT work.

Given that the #1 NCAAF team (Clemson) is in the ACC (and has already had an ACCN-exclusive game that was not on AT&T services), there may be some interest in ACC outside the east coast.  Similar to the argument for SECN and Alabama.   SEC and the ACC cover a large swath of AT&T territory.

 

But you're right, this is likely a sticking point.  And the Longhorn network is in different tiers in AT&T services depending on location.
