Across North Carolina? Also, I’m similar to Mr. Green and will not pay any more for sports programming. I have ESPN, deuce and U along with FS1 and FS2. Wonder if my Spectrum package will include? If not, guess I’ll miss some games.Quote:

At 47, I am only interested in Duke basketball and football. With moves like this i feel one step closer to being done all together. I'll watch the ACCN games I want in a bar but i will not support the money grab on principal alone.
Programming is available remotely on the DVR.Quote:

11-11:30 "The Huddle" (Introducing the ACC Channel),
rinse and repeat until the ACC Championship Game with Clemson and GT.

ACC Network will be Channel 829 on Verizon Fios. I'm anxiously awaiting 7 pm tomorrow to see whether or not it is included in my current package.
I may fold later and pay more if they schedule Duke b-ball/football on this decrepit, bag lady network; but if I do that, I will hate myself in the morning😖.Quote:

I understand directv customers/subscribers/suckers may/may not/ allegedly will find aacn on ch. 612. Nothing in program guide to confirm as of two minutes ago. Just spoke with someone in acc office. She could not tell me where to find acc on dtv.
Preposterous.
Just turned on Spectrum 388 and it’s on a repeated minute or so roll showing the sports and ACC logos to “spellbinding” music. Of course, take a wild guess as to which Logo shows up 1st.Quote:

When I called Spectrum, it took the clueless operator, who had never heard of ACCN, about a half hour to figure out what the problems was. It turned out that I had a "legacy TWC" plan and their system doesn't allow the addition of channels to a legacy plan. I had to switch to a Spectrum plan. When I asked how much more it would cost, there was a delay of a few minutes before I was told it would cost about $20 a month less. I made the switch and the black and white screen turned into the colorful ACC graphics. I've since read online accounts from other people who have had a similar experience with Spectrum. If Spectrum doesn't figure out a way to automatically add ACCN for customers with legacy plans, their operators will be deluged over the next few weeks.
Per NYT... https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/22/s...work-espn.html
“Barring any last-minute agreements — and in carriage negotiations, there are often last minute agreements — the ACC Network will be carried at launch by DirecTV, Verizon, Charter and Optimum, as well as a host of smaller companies and digital upstarts. It will not be carried by Comcast, AT&T, Dish or Cox.”
Still have a few months before any real basketball action is on.
Here in Orlando, on Spectrum cable, the ACC Network is now telecasting on Channels 90 and 1187; but the only content running currently is a series of looping promotional videos, and the guide that shows future programming simply says "Data Not Available."
I've been running into a similar problem, and I was guessing that the root cause was the legacy TWC plans. I haven't seen similar online accounts - where did you see them?Quote:

I still don’t see channel 612 in directv online guide. Does anyone else not see it yet? I just don’t trust Directv not to have screwed something up.
