DirecTV: FREE HBO Preview This Weekend (1/27-1/30)
UPDATE: When I originally wrote up this post, I had included the fact that Dish Network was also offering up a free HBO and Cinemax Preview this weekend. I then removed this info once I read through the comments left by Dish Network subscribers who stated that they could not access this free preview. However, reader, Becky just commented that Dish Network emailed that this preview is indeed starting today on channels 300-309 for HBO and 310-314 for Cinemax.
If you’re a DirecTV subscriber, you should be able to get in on a nice treat this weekend! Reader, Angie, recently emailed to let me know that DirectTV is offering a FREE preview of HBO this weekend. DirecTV subscribers can access HBO on Channels 501-511.
Also, several other carriers (Cox Communications, Verizon FIOS, etc.) may be offering this promotion as well, so you may want to call your local provider to see if they’re participating!
(Thanks, Angie!)
