This is absurd! We were considering canceling cable and this is just pushing us closer to making that decision. We really don't watch that many channels, but the Weather Channel was one that I watched! I also don't have a "smart phone" or many other devices to check the weather, so I actually DID use my TV for the weather. Accuweather is a joke! It is awful! Please bring the weather channel back or you will most likely lose a lot of customers! Very disappointed!

So upset that Verizon didn't renew agreement with Weather Channel 49, 119 & 619 HD. We loved these channels to keep up updated on weather condiditons all day long. Also, my husband loved to watch chanel 119's programming. We don't download apps & we shouldn't be forced to. My monthly bill is high enough without losing channels that we love to watch. I suggest you reinstate these channels.

I live on Long Island NY and fish oir boat very ofthe. I depend on the weather channel which has invaluable information for local winds and weather conditions for my area unavailable on regular weather forecasts. Also the featured shows on the weather channel are very good and it is one of the top rated cable stations> without THE WEATHER CHANNEL I do not need fios. AS such, if it is not back by nxt week i will cancel my contract and not pay early termination fees since they are not supplying a key PRIME cable channel, they are voiding the contract, and I will switch to optimum!

It's hard to find any area with TV where FIOS has things other providers don't. There are countless channels that customers want in HD that other carriers have (from my perspective the sports ones like FoxSports 2, Premier League Xtra Time, GolTV,etc.) and when they do get them they are always the last one to carry them. Don't even get started on the ipad app where you are very limited with channels outside of the home network and no ability to take DVR content that you already pay for with you. Now this crap with dropping the Weather Channel because they think we get our weather information elsewhere?!?! If that is the rationale then why do we have news and sports channels since we can get that information from a newspaper and online? Why even carry live sports if we can get the scores on our phone? Why carry network programming or movie channels if we can read about them in Wikipedia or other online sites? The rationale they provided in the email to customers was ridiculous. Instead we waste a valuable HD channel on weather programming from AccuWeather that looks like a high school kid put it together on is Mac.

Dont complain just call up and tell them if the weather channel doesnt come back you are cancelling, actions speak louder than words! If they want to take away a channel take away that stupid fios 1 news done by children with cell phone video! I just renewed my contract with a great deal but ill drop the whole thing, they have voided the contract by removing one of the top 5 watched cable channels because of greed!
