Cinemax is now included with your package at no additional cost!

Did anyone else get this email - will I save money or will this cost me more money? I assume save? Anyone have more details?

Dear Customer:

Good news for customers currently subscribed to the Ultimate FiOS® TV package. Cinemax is now included with your package at no additional cost!

We will change your current HBO/Cinemax subscription to HBO only. Your account will be credited for the price difference between HBO/Cinemax and HBO from the effective date of the Ultimate Package change. Please note you may not see these reflected on your bill for several months.

Additionally, if you are currently receiving an HBO/Cinemax promotion, you will continue to enjoy it against your HBO package for the duration of your promotional period.

No action is needed on your part. We will take care of these changes for you!

Thank you for choosing Verizon.

Sincerely,
Verizon

I subscribe to the Ultimate FiOS® TV package w/HBO (Albany, NY).

A few weeks ago I began receiving Cinemax & Cinemax on-demand for no additional cost.

I am an Ultimate HD sub. with HBO/MAX. I don't understand this line. Can somebody please explain?

I believe it means if you were getting a promotional rate of 1/2 off an HBO/Cinemax package it would continue although you were only getting charged for HBO. Of course my experience was not as described above. When I noticed the change on my bill today I called FIOS and learned that Cinemax was now included in my highest tier TV package. I would only be charged for HBO - HOWEVER the CSR could not apply a 1/2 discount to HBO. So now I pay more for HBO alone then I did for HBO/Cinemax together - $16.99 vs $12.50 (with the credit). I just canceled HBO today.

I know for a fact people in NY get ALL of the movie channels in the Ultimate package because of all of the competition. I wish they were all included in Florida. I have to stick with the 50% off for a year for HBO.
