Channels and Programming

[madrid09]

North of Boston will also get the english version of BeIn Sport on 12/12 (channel 192) and Gol TV will be removed. I thought we were supposed to get the english channel in HD? 

[Fresh1]

Hi can you please give me an update on when the channel will hit the Chicago Land area? I understand this is a  very important market for Comcast and as a customer I would like to be updated on the status of this channel.

I had called Comcast asking for a date of when we gonna get bein sport in west palm beach, florida. I think is so rude that they don't even care about their customers, I just want an answer I want to know if in 2 months 2 years I paid like 150 every month I guess I don't deserve an answer. Please when we gonna have bein sport in west palm beach, please respond Comcast...

[r02769]

Please add BeIn sport in English  and High Def zip 02769.  Huge difference between the great fox socceror grams in HD and the awful SD Bein product that you all are serving up.

[IceHippo]

If you really think Fox Soccer's HD looks good, you should be thanking the stars that NBC just won the rights to the EPL. Their HD actually looks HD.

[socccermaster]

When are we going to get the streaming version of Be in Sport?  That would be nice!  They talked about it but never delivered on that...It would be great to have ALL THE GAMES on streaming instead of a POOR programming of Bein...

[Ymsv]

For those who still don't have Fox Soccer HD won't have to worry about it next year for EPL. NBC will deliver it in beautiful HD. Thanx NBC.

[DrumTek]

We NEED Bein Sport in PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL! I STILL can't believe that a county 10 minutes from me has it and we don't!

[DocCoyote]

I thought Oregon would have English Language beIn Sports...what is the hold up?

[gelsound]

Are we getting the HD feed when the English version shows up?

[123Barcelona123]

When will Bein Sports be available in West Palm Beach, Fl. DirectTV and Dish has it in the area so why does it take this long for Comcast to get it!!! 

[bodun43]

It sounds too good --and easy so Comcast will probably drop the NBC sports channels

[EugeneMilan]

UPDATE

12/12 Bein Sports English (400) coming to Chicago. (sports Entertainment Package) No information on SD or HD yet.     GOLTV Spanish and English  SD and HD no longer available. (Check your bill/statement for  channel listings)

NBC Network acquire EPL rights 2013-2014 Season. 80-85mil (4 times more than Fox has been paying). 380 games a year.   That leaves Fox Soccer Channel with only Champions League until 2014-2015!

[IceHippo]

DC area getting beIN English (SD) in the middle of December. Channel 726.

[Temo_pre]

Is anything changing for Being Sports now that it their rights were bought by "WARNER cABLE?

http://rbr.com/time-warner-cable-bright-house-networks-to-launch-bein-sport/

Time Warner Cable, Bright House Networks to launch “beIN SPORT”

The new independent 24-hour global network dedicated to live and exclusive coverage of the world’s best soccer and international sports, will be carried exclusively by Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks. 

[jtmlxx]

The Comcast employee who sold me my subscription assured me TWO MONTHS AGO that the beIN Sport English channel would be available "soon".  What a lie!  What a fraud!

There has been no information about when the English channel will be added here in Oregon on the Comcast/Xfinity site, and it seems that Comcast refuses to supply an avenue for communication with its customers.  When I tried to get an answer from the local Comcast office, the people there pretended ignorance and told me to wait for an announcement on my bill.

Perhaps we need to act through the local agencies which regulate cable.

I notice that DocCoyote has complained about the absence of the English channel in Eugene.  Well, it's missing here in Portland, too.

[Ymsv]

I can't believe Comcast customers still struggling fighting to get BeIN English. Now that Liberty cable offered both channels in HD. Time Warner and Brighthouse gonna add them both soon. I got DirecTV now paying $52/month I got BeIN English In glamorous HD and BeIn Spanish in SD. Shame on comcast.

[medziatkowicz]

what is liberty cable?

[Ymsv]

Liberty Cablevision of Puerto Rico

[medziatkowicz]

that's what I got when looking it up just didn't make sense since comcast doesn't serve puerto rico

[Ymsv]

I don't understand what u r trying to say. I was just compare Comcast with other competitors out there.

[bunsmac]

Yeah I want Irish..

[Ymsv]

Time Warner and Brighthouse Cable are now having both beIN English and beIN Espanol in HD.

[DrumTek]

When is PALM BEACH COUNTY in south FL going to get Bein????

[ComcastTeds]

As a general update, Comcast is starting to deliver the standard definition version of BeiN Sports USA (the English language version) to multiple locations starting in December.

Check your cable box messages and messages in your cable invoice for more details on specific locations, channel numbers and timing.

In the areas where this channel is being added, it will be included in the Sports Entertainment Package (this version of the channel will not be included in the Multi-Latino package). 

The following areas are currently scheduled to get this new channel in December:

MD, VA, DC, PA, DE, NJ, WV, MA, NH, CT, IL and parts of FL

Additional locations are scheduled for January. I'll post those locations as we get closer to January.

Schedules and locations are subject to change. Check your cable box messages and information in your monthly cable invoice for more details on specific locations, channel numbers and timing for your area.

Thanks for your patience.

In the areas where this new channel (beIN Sports USA) is being added, it will be included in the Sports Entertainment Package (beIN Sports USA will not be included in the Multi-Latino package). 

At this time, nothing is changing with the current level of service where the current beIN Sports en Espanol channel is located. 

[7Supermario]

[jaminho]

What a joke indeed. No CA and no HD. you'd better hurry up or I move to DirectTV. SD why dont we go black and white also?

[EugeneMilan]

Standard definition versions are currently offered in the areas where we carry/will carry these channels. We don't currently offer the HD versions.  

[DrumTek]

Any word as to when in January Palm Beach County, FL will get Bein?

[eric99edelman]

Any idea when Comcast subscribers in Brandon, FL (33511) will get BeIN Sport?

Thanks!

[Cgunnels]

We are showing Bein Sports USA in Bonita Springs, FL on channel 638. This is the English version of the channel and not the Spanish version; the Spanish version is on 615. This is a great for SW FL.

Teds-

Can you please get a statement from Content on why we aren't seeing the HD version added? I mean, you're removing Gol TV SD and HD from my area and replacing it only w/the SD version of beIN USA. So, that throws out the bandwidth excuse. It's only fair to ask for a statement from content why we're continuing to see HD programming removed from our lineups with nothing in return. We all know the addition of these two channels has been a fiasco from the start - but to now replace an existing HD channel for soccer with nothing is just more of a slap in the face of fans.

Thank you.

[usry723]

Is there any information as to when Bein could be available in the Augusta, GA area? 

[Barca107]

Comcast Teds, do you have any information on when it will be added to Jacksonville, FL?

[akiml]
