FMC 258 Gone?

[dukefan]

I have the "Total Choice Plus HBO" that used to include FMC... I still get ESPNC, Fox Reality, and everything else I had before the new channels, but FMC is no longer included. DTV claims that this was the only channel removed from the "new Total Choice"... but that was never communicated in writing. Anyone else notice this or make any progress on getting it back?

Works for me with TC+. Are you getting x721 when you key in 2-5-8? Or just missing from the guide? Could be that it's not in your Channels-You-Receive list, check that.

The OP has TC, not TC+. We have the same and FMC was removed (much to my wife's annoyance!) several months ago. When I called, I was told it was temporary and they expected it to return, but it never did.

OP stated "Total Choice Plus HBO" and I took that to mean TC+ and HBO. But maybe OP meant "Total Choice and HBO"?

I noticed the same thing a few months ago. I called D* and told the CSR that it was not cool for them to change the lineup without any notice and that this is one of our favorites. I was told FMC was now part of new package (I have TC plus HBO). I've forgotten what the other channels were but since I've been with them so long etc. and in a 2 year agreement they bumped me up to the new package at no cost until the end of my agreement. I'd try it.
