scripps dispute

Scripps is CBS in my area.  I have planned for months around watching the Masters this weekend.  I WILL be looking at alternative entertainment providers other than Xfinity; especially considering how much we pay each month.  Your dispute is ridiculous and you are using your customers as leverage.  Totally unacceptable!

Hi @user_on404a I understand your frustration. You can stream live coverage of the Masters Tournament at masters.com.

The on screen message says they don’t accept Scripps Ofer because they would have to raise our fees. Since you are currently paying nothing to Scripps I assume there will be a refund coming. I had to subscribe to the premium Paramount+ to watch the usual broadcast unacceptable.

Scripps is CBS in my area.  My family can't watch the Price is Right, Y&R, along with other popular shows in our area.  I WILL be looking at alternative entertainment providers other than Xfinity; especially considering how much we pay each month.  Your dispute is ridiculous and you are using your customers as leverage.  Totally unacceptable! My sister suggested years ago that I switch carriers but I wanted to remain faithful after 23 years. No more.  It's obvious Xfinity doesn't care about me so I'm taking my business elsewhere.

I am totally disgusted by this Scripps dispute. In our area, it is NBC but there are so many other channels that are also Scripps that we can't get anymore. I can stream on Peacock but what am I paying Xfinity for? There are at least 6 and probably more channels that we are missing from our lineup. I am exploring other avenues to get live tv. Like Dish or Direct TV. Are we all going to get refunds for the channels we don't have access to anymore?

I, too, would like information on the refunds.  If you are not paying Scripps then refund the customers.  I am tired of this dispute. I know from contract negotiations,  you know what you will accept, they know what they will accept.  Act like adults as you are not suffering - we are.  I know that in reading various posts, people are looking at other options and who will be the loser in the long run when we figure out we can use other options.

Return Newschannel 5 to the tv listings and not have the subscribers suffer due to greed.
