After much gnashing of teeth, came on in Richmond, VA around 3:10 EDT. Probably purely coincidental, but I was having some issues over and above not receiving Redzone, so I had rebooted my router just before Redzone came on. |

Re: [HD] NFL red Zone Still not on. Stuck watching the Eagles and Browns, and I feel like going outside to do yard work because that HAS to be better than this crappy game.
How I miss my beloved RedZone.

Just checked with Verizon chat and they said the problem had been fixed, to turn on/turn off your Fios Set top box - we did and it is working now... finally. |

Btw did you realize today is opening day for football.
Opening Day was last Wednesday with the Cowboys and Giants game.
I figured something like this was going to happen on the first Sunday with RedZone. That's why I started dealing with them a couple of weeks ago. And I'm glad my RedZone channel got straightened out earlier this weeks.
Thanks again ***** for helping me get it straightened out. |

To all you guys who got it working...
Are you able to go into the Football Widget and set team alerts? I can open the widget, but it still tells me to "subscribe" when I try to set up alerts...and it takes me to that annoying message:
""Our records indicate that you have previously subscribed to this Channel. Programming should be available shortly as soon as the order has been processed."
The Redzone channel itself is working fine. The widget, not so fine. |
|
| I talked to custome service about some type of credit and she told me that it has to be down for 24 hours for that to happen. I told her this channel is on for 6-8 hours a week....its like it was down for 4 days!!! Terrible customer service. This on top of raising the price on my boxes $2. I pay $10 more a month for crap! |

Wow, I didn't check here during the games yesterday, because my Red Zone Channel was working from the start. Sorry you all had to go through that. For what it's worth, I'm not an Ultimate sub and I purchase RZC separately. |
|
| Mine started working around 4:00PM yesterday but now I'm back to it asking for me to press "OK" to subscribe.
Wonder if we'll have the same problem again next Sunday? |

I turned mine on in the mid point of the 2nd quarter of the Skins-Saints game so that was probably about 2:15 or so eastern and Red Zone was working for me at that point so no idea if it was down before that.
I had clicked to activate it one day last week.
I know they got some bad publicity on Steve Czaban's morning show because their co host pointed out that he has Fios, it wasn't on, he called, got hung up on and didn't bother trying again. |

Damn, I guess I got lucky. I am an Ultimate subscriber in VH08 and I started the activation process at 11:20 am on Sunday and by 11:25 it was on for me. |
|
| reply to JH28
Fortunately, I was one who it activated for ok and worked from yesterday morning when the fantasy stuff was on till it went off Sunday evening. As of this morning when I left for work at 7:00 I had just a black screen, no splash, no music, no message. Can it really be that hard? |

EDIT: VZ Direct just responded to my Redzone post from last week. I told them the Redzone channel itself is now working but not the widget alerts. I still don't know if this is a widespread issue or one that is specific to me. |
|
| Steely,
I looked at the scores yesterday through the football widget and they were not being updated, showing 2nd quarter scores for a game that ended hours ago, so I believe the alerts were not working because the scores weren't being updated.
I think you are in the same VHO as me, Freehold VHO7? |

kudos:1 | No, I'm near Freehold, but because I'm in Mercer County and the Philly DMA, I'm actually part of VHO8.
When I open the Football Widget it seems not to "know" that I'm already subscribed to NFL Redzone. It wants me to press the "C" button on my remote so I can subscribe. If I press the button, I get into that same looping message I was getting prior to yesterday about being previously subscribed and that content should be available shortly. Hitting "OK" closes the message AND the widget. |
