If Verizon does not add Pac-12 Networks, we will move to the first carrier in our area that does. We are on FIOS month-to-month and I deferred renewing at the higher internet speed until FIOS carries the Pac-12 Network so I can leave at any time.

Channel Requests

To quote BeckyS_VZ's Sticky post at the top of this Forum.

I am seeing a lot of channel requests (or reviving of old threads with channel requests) on this forum. PLEASE find the request on the Idea Exchange and vote there instead of starting a new thread here. If you don't see the channel you want after searching the Idea Exchange, then you are welcome to open a new suggestion.

The product managers are reading the Idea Exchange and if you want their attention then VOTE there. Thank you.

A link to the TV Content Ideas, where you can search for previously requested content, and then Vote. Or post your own request. Duplicating content requests over and over only adds clutter to this forum. Vote for the content you wish to see. Now if you wish to discuss programming content viewed, I would say this is a good place. But remember Verizin is not responsible for the providers content.

I am currently a DirecTV subscriber but have previously been a FIOS TV subscriber.  Whomever adds the Pac-12 network first will have my service for the next several years, if not forever.  If neither of you add it, I will be forced to (unfortunately) go to Time Warner Cable.  Please, please, add!  Thanks.

This is NOT just a specialty channel of interest only to the left coast - the PAC 12 plays non-conference games againt people from other parts of the country.

For example, this weekend, the PAC 12 plays non-conference games against Duke and Oklahoma State.  Oklahoma State is the #16 team in the country and this game is of national interest.  Duke - while obviously not a national power - is of interest to fans in the ACC region (where FIOS has a strong presence).

In my area, your chief competitor is Cox and Cox offers this channel.  There's very little that would make me want to switch back to Cox, but they offer this channel and they offer CBS College Sports in HD ... two glaring deficiencies for the football fan FIOSers.

Hey, there's a new PAC-12 channel much like the Longhorn Channel added last year. This PAC-12 channel should be part of the Sports Extreme package so we can watch those west coast games finally!

Thanks

I agree but Verizon seems to be ignoring us and others that have requested the PAC 12 addition. Time Warner and COX are showing football etal that are not available anywhere else, but I have had no luck getting a positive response from anyone at Verizon.

Week three of the college football season is coming up and still no PAC 12 Network.  This week, they are carrying Houston @ UCLA.  Houston was last year's cinderella team and UCLA is an exciting young team fresh off of an upset of Nebraska.  I'd love to be able to watch this game after Notre Dame-Michigan State ends ... there isn't really anything else worth watching among the late games ... but I can't see it on FIOS.

And in week four, Cal-Southern Cal will be on the PAC 12 Network.

Hello Verizon - are you listening?  This is a huge hole in your offering.

There is NO HOLE in Verizon's lineup without the crummy Pac10 Network.  ALMOST NOBODY east of the Rockies cares.  Trust me .... VIRTUALLY NOBODY on the east coast cares ..... and certainly NOBODY CARES in the northeast.

This is an unnecessary channel, and Verizon senses that.  There are far too many sports channels as it is.  You have your regional sports channels  ... you have more ESPN's than you watch, you have NBC Sports, CBS Sports, NESN National, YES National ..........  and all those sports channels that start at channel 300 that you never watch now anyhow!!!!!!!!!!!!  Give it a break.  

NO MORE SPORTS CHANNELS ARE NEEDED

Maybe some of the many could be combined, than you wouldn't have so many hours and hours of games now that you don't watch now.  And **bleep**, when the season ends ... those channels are less than useless.

Only holes, if any, in Verizon's lineup is HD versions of many of the second tier channels.

If you are a college football fan, the PAC 12 network is important.  Sure, people who don't watch college football or college basketball aren't going to care ... just like those of us who don't watch British TV don't care about BBC America. 

Personally, I care about channels that show college football and I care about Fox Business and you could take the rest of it off the air and I wouldn't notice.

Please don't speak for everyone, There are a lot of West Coast fans here in the DC area, and the fact that Verizon can't get its stuff together and add PAC-12 to the line-up is just poor business.  Seriously, people are willing to pay for it, let us pay for it. It has been 2 years now, get it together.

And with Verizon selling its FIOS assests in California, Florida, and Texas, I would not expect them to bother signing up for PAC12.

When will Verizon offer subscribers the Pac 12 Network and/or Lakers Network?

Contributor - Level 1

Lakers are still up in the air.

Pac-12 they will never get. At least until next year. the most popular college sport(football) is almost halfway over and not a peep from verizon about it.  They aren't even negotiating for that anymore at this point.

When are we going to get the PAC-12 Network? No one is responding to our inquiries. This is not good customer service.

Yes, spring practice is on. WE WANT PAC-12 Networks or we're going to consider switching.
