INSP removal???

If you mean my last reply, it reads right.

If you are referring to yesterday's first reply. It is absolutely possible. It is happening now on social media posts.

Just lost INSP & who knows what other channels. One of my favorite channels, watched the most in our house. I don’t need sports package. Comcast is just ridiculous. I don’t wanna call a foreign country again to complain because all they want is to sell more. So sick of Comcast / xfinity 

Last I checked, INSP is not sports related! It's  westerns! My package included this channel, xfinity, take it away, my bill should go down!

@sayuri​ it was on my TV 24/7 unless I wanted to watch a hallmark movie.

@sayuri Thank you for reaching out to us here on our Community Forum.

We regularly evaluate our channel lineups and sometimes make changes to ensure we're offering a wide variety of content at the best value. As part of those regular reviews, we decided to move INSP to these packages. 

The good news is that you can still watch similar programming without changing your TV package. By saying “Westerns” into your Xfinity Voice Remote or searching for “Westerns” On Demand, you can find a wide variety of content at your fingertips.

@user_09d060​ FrndlyTV is $6.99 a month with 40 plus channels, no sports, no news, I'm cutting my cable tv on 9/27

@user_09d060​ I said the same thing to them. They told me that our contract states that they are allowed to make changes just as we are allowed to make changes. SMH

Totally agree. I have been a customer for 30+ years and pretty much because during storms and power outages, broadband cable is more reliable than a satellite. Now I am thinking about leaving and getting a satellite service that has INSP and during storms, watch Roku or a firestick or Apple box my son gave me. He pays for all the streaming services so I'd just use his account for Amazon and Netflix.

@user_f0839b​ My INSP wasn't on Basic, I had the higher plan at $99. 00 a month, and they cut it.  I'm [EDIT: Inflammatory]

@user_6c30f9​ I'm already paying $190 a month for internet/cable tv with 125 plus channels. . . .most of my tv watching is 70 percent OTA, but I'm cutting my cable tv in two weeks so I can watch INSP on ROKU tv or get FrndlyTv for $6.95 and get INSP and 40 plus channels.

I too am paying 190$ a month and I watch only like 5 favorites, Hallmark channels, INSP, HGTV, GAF, and now GRIT (which has westerns). I am under contract so cannot cancel without paying a fee. I tried to see if INSP was on ROKU but I don't think so. I do know its on FrndlyTv though. I just don't like to stream or watch on tv on a laptop. 

@user_6c30f9​ I think when INSP started to get viewers and started to show new shows is when they may have decided this too. It's ridiculous and greedy. 

I too was very saddened. As an avid western show watcher, I had my tv on INSP 24/7 once I discovered they were playing the show Laramie. The only channel that does, except for Starz. An therefore it's not even available on On Demand or their suggested advice to look for westerns free to me. This channel was my 'constant' and practically put me through withdrawls on Sat when it got removed (I came home to a notice "you're not subscribed"). I am livid. I asked INSP on FB if it was their idea and they said no, and to call and ask Xfinity to give it back. So I did and Xfinity said...NOPE.

Thank you for reaching out to us on our community forums @user_66369e! We regret to hear this affected your parents. Every month, Comcast pays programmers like networks, local TV station owners and others for the ability to bring their programming to you. The cost of programming generally continues to rise – in fact, our programming costs have more than doubled since 2006 – which can affect your bill.

We absorb a large portion of these cost increases and are doing our best to manage them while still giving you the best value we can. While this change won’t cause the prices to go down on existing packages, it will help limit future increases in your bill. 

Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and your parents' full address? Our team would love to help look at available promotions to see if we have any options to add the More Sports & Entertainment Package without increasing the monthly bill.

@user_295390 Thank you for sharing the trouble with the services ordered. Sporting channels are a part of most channel lineup packages. However, there are some add on packages that may be the issue you are seeing. I would love to help out to make sure this is corrected so that you have the right channels.
