Missing out on tv that is valuable to me!

Att has until August 12th to settle with nexstar and restore my local fox channel!  If that doesn't happen I will absolutely be switching providers!!! I will not miss out on football games!!!

I will deal with it when it happens. Apparently att is not going to settle with nexstar and I'm not going to continue to miss out on my favorite local channel. If a store stopped carrying your favorite item then you would go to another store!

What will you do when your new provider goes through the same thing?  Nexstar which pulled your local Fox channel and is greedy and any paid TV service you switch to in your area has to deal with the same owner and when they have to go through negotiations they will pull the feed on that provider just like they did with your current TV provider!  Don't believe me Dish Network is still going through this with them since the beginning of this year and Directv/Directv Stream is going through this as well!  Hulu, YouTube TV, and Fubo TV had the same issue but they finally settled on an agreement.  So hopefully you get my point this company does this to all paid TV providers that they deal with!

Just like the rest of you, I’m sick of not having NBC and the local news. 
Does anyone really know if ATT is doing anything about this? 
I’m thinking of changing my provider also but obviously ATT does not care if they lose subscribers.

@Lily10252022  Nexstar pulled their network feed, not AT&T. It was pulled because Nexstar is asking AT&T to pay them a lot more money to carry the network stations for their service. Nexstar owns about 190 local affiliate stations nationwide and they want more money to do that. AT&T is negotiating for a more fair price but Nexstarl so far hasn't budged. This is a common tactic by all affiliate owners to use the customers to pressure the provider to cave in to the station owners demands.

Go ahead and switch providers. Doesn't matter who you switch to it will happen to them as well sooner or late. Business as usual.

@Lily10252022 They are trying to come to an agreement but Nexstar is playing hardball.  AT&T is giving a one-time credit of $10 if you go to www.directv.com/tvpromise this is for Directv and U-Verse Customers!  This would cover the cost of Peacock for at least a month if not more as long as you can stream it.  So you would no longer be without NBC while they negotiate.

The one time credit should be automatic! Why should I have to apply for it?
