Free Previews

[57]

Hollywood Suite is again on free preview until January 5th. I don't know why Rogers have not yet updated their free preview page, which is out of date (at this time).

The link often remains the same, so if it's updated, you should see the current free previews, but you may wish to do a search for "free preview" on the Rogers Website instead.

I believe Animal Planet and other channels are also on free preview, but I'm not sure what the others are.

Hello @57,

Hollywood Suite is a great movie channel, I know I will be taking advantage of this Free Preview over the holidays. 

I have reached out to the team that updates the Rogers.com website and they have advised me that this will be updated shortly.

Thanks for your many contributions to the Community Forums! 😃

Free previews for January??

Are there any free previews on, for this month? Everything has pretty much expired, on the Roger's page. Looks like, this is a pattern.

@Bodster : As indicated earlier in this thread, it looks like Rogers needs to be reminded every month to update their free previews... 😉

[57]

Since this has not been updated, I've sent a note to:

Just as an FYI, nothing has been updated.  Perhaps in time for February?

[Bodster]

Thanks for trying! Rogers, if you are watching, today is February 1 😊

I agree the Rogers Free Previews page https://www.rogers.com/consumer/tv/free-previews is completely out of date and useless. I was watching Jay Leno's Garage on CNBC (Ch 79) last night and saw an ad about Discovery Velocity being on free preview. After searching to find what channel number that is (Ch 245 it turns out) I see it is available, but nowhere is it mentioned on the Free Previews.  So is it on free preview or just free? I see all the shows are repeats from years before.

@OLDYELLR :  Since you usually also visit Digital Home, I suggest you check out the following thread once a month, or whenever there's a new post.  Velocity is only on for another few days, although these previews are sometimes extended.

Unfortunately, the Rogers Free Preview thread on Digital Home is typically no more up-to-date than this one.

Hi there @Bodster, @OLDYELLR & @57,

Thank you for taking the time to bring this up to our attention.

We've received confirmation that the update to the Free Previews page was completed.

We value your feedback greatly and shared it with the team in charge.

Thanks again!

@RogersMaude :  Thanks. Your team seems to have missed TLN, which is on free preview:

http://www.tln.ca/tln-free-preview/

I believe that Silver Screen Classics may also be on free preview, but I couldn't find a link to corroborate that information.

[jays77]

Just checked and Silver Screen Classic (ch 324 in Ottawa) is available for free.  At least for tonight it is.

I realize that there are announcements of free previews on TV, but announcing them on the Rogers website 4 days before they end isn't very  helpful.

Discovery Velocity HD 

Preview Starts: January 11, 2018

Preview Ends: February 9, 2018

[Bodster]

Thank you!

I did manage to find TLN, Makl and Cooking. I can't get Velocity, as its HD anyway.

Appreciate everyone, that looked into it😊

[OLDYELLR]

I have Velocity on 245 and 534.

BBC Earth (channel 541) is on free preview until April - why does it not show up on the Rogers Free Preview page?

I don't see that. It still comes up as an extra cost subscription channel for me today. But the Rogers Free Preview page has never been up-to-date or reliable.
