Flex 20...American channels now?

I plan to stick around

I'm half way through a two year contract (flex 20 + sports) and I just noticed that I now have access to NBC, CBS, Fox and PBS.  I've never had access to them before?

yep me again as well.  I also get some other channels such as Seattle american networks and some CTV stations that I don't normally get ie CTV Winnipeg, Vancouver and Kitchener for example, but only until Monday morning I'm assuming 🙂

Just as an FYI, I learned over on Digital Home's Forum that:

 

"the the U.S networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC and PBS.) are on Free preview on Bell Fibe TV January 25 – April 01, 2024".  Perhaps that helps explain what's been happening here?  I didn't realize that Bell also charges for these channels.  I'll add more information as I get it.

To add to my post above, Bell Fibe is about to start charging $3/mo for what Rogers calls "Prime Time Pack" and Rogers now includes these channels as of November 1, 2023. Very odd.  See near the bottom of the following Bell Webpage.  If the link gets removed, you can visit the Bell Fibe webpage on your own for confirmation.

Confirmed.  Rogers is offering a free preview of the US and Canadian Time-shifting channels (on weekends) as well: https://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/The-Ignite-Couch/Free-Preview-Channels-for-February-2024/td-p/...
