Re: [AB] Switching from basic cable to classic cable

Tier 1, 2 and 3, along with the Basic you already have, comprise Classic cable. If you already have a digital box, they can do up a work order for the upgrade, then send someone out to take off the filters so any TVs without a box can get the channels as well. By doing that, you'd get the new channels right away. However, only the TVs with a box would get the upgrade until the tech was out there to do the work.

Really, you'd get a faster, more precise answer if you just called up and asked the sales department. They'd be quite happy to help out.

If you want them, they have to come out to hook it

Right now, my family is using the basic cable ($33.95/month). If I want to switch to the classic cable ($58.95/month), do I have to change my cable box thing? Do I just activate it online or something?

Also, when I check the "channels in my area" page on shaw, and go to classic cable, it has tier 1, 2 and 3. What do they mean? Do I get them if I order classic cable?

Sorry for having too many questions.

Thanks!

Ben.
