Pride PPV Problems

[Mean]

For the second straight time, I was not able to order the Pride PPV event until about 20 minutes after it started. I have Comcast in Northern VA so I am not exactly living in the sticks. Everytime I hit buy it kept coming up saying that it was not available. Finally it took the order, said that the event starts in 2 minutes with a coutdown, and then boom I am in the middle of the 2nd round of the 1st fight.

What gives? UFC conspiracy?

Yea, that sucks, they should let you have the replay for free, but that kind of defeats the point. I mean you know who won.

Yeah i was glad i checked early with dish network. Cause i order every UFC one but never got a pride before so just figured they all started 10pm est. I checked at 820 and it said starting in 10 minutes.

just tell your ppv provider that u had planned to record the event and u should get at least a credit on your bill. Be sure to lay out how much frustration that u have with this, especially with it being the second ppv with the same result and u should get something out of it

I am in Richmond, VA and have no problem with ordering it.

Northern Kentucky area:

Guide says it start at 8:30pm. Buy at 8:25pm. Blank screen until 9:30pm and it started in the middle of a fight. Cable company said yeah it starts at 9:30pm. To bad about being on hold for 30 minutes, you know it is Saturady night we are not fully staffed.

you should think about buying it earlier, like early that day just to be safe. i had a similar problem but that was b/c my dish couldn't dial out b/c some ASSHOLE was on the phone in my house. sorry, my sister's an asshole.

I fucking hate Northern VA Comcast. The bunch of incompetent fucks. But that's a long story.

Like has been mentioned I always order my events way early in the day to be safe. Call them and bitch, you should be able to get some credit back if you yell enough.
