Add me to the chorus...I'll have to pay a $200 early termination fee...but I will do it and hold a grudge against Verizon for a long, long time...

Outside forces prevented me from keeping my original deadline, but alas I have Direct TV scheduled for an install next week. Hello SEC Network and NFL Sunday ticket from a company that understands the programming that people want and the need for them to know they will have it in a timely fashion. Verizon could learn a thing or two from this, but they will not if customers merely threaten to leave but don't follow through. Money is the only language they speak.

KAM2523 you are wrong.  UK Basketball plays summer ball on day one August 14th.  That's a huge fanbase to tick off.

I'm signing up elsewhere, Verizon doesn't give a crap about it's customers

Verizon has been moving some channels around over the past few days, which is hopefully a good sign. Maybe they are making room for the SEC Network. I hope an announcement would come early next week.

I have to say, I don't quite get this theory.  How much room does the SEC network need?  Is it so big that you can't have any channels around it?

Moving channels here and there to create the right spot for SEC Network....they will want it near all the sports channels. I think they recently moved Outdoor Life Network which is near the ESPN channels.

They've got until 8/28 to get SEC Network...we have no problem paying early termination to move to Bright House to get our football fix. It's absurd that every single other provider has picked up SEC Network and Verizon is still dragging their feet.
