Ya! We have to replace our broken DVR so all our movies we saved will be gone. Now we get to record free movies all weekend.

Anyone know if you can get onlinecast to match a onlinepetitor offer like this? Worth a shot to call anyway I guess

It’s worth a phone call. When the prompts start, press for “retention dept”, they are your best bet.

Dish is having this as well- Channels 340, 350-356 Today though Monday and 301-314 Friday to Monday. Thanks for letting me know about Direct TV’s so I could check the dish website. I know what I will be doing tonight- planning to fill our DVR!
