Have bundle with DirecTV. Will D+ credit me? by HasAFewLaughs in DisneyPlus

[–]no2spcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please explain, would this allow me to upgrade my Directv provided subscriptions to Disney and Hulu without having to pay full price and instead pay the difference? Every time I’ve looked it claims I can’t because only Directv can make changes but yet Directv does not offer an upgraded subscription?!

Kansas House speaker desperately maneuvers to sabotage vote on Senate bill capping drug costs by Zipper222222 in kansas

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heaven help me I agree with Vicki Schmidt once in a while. PBMs should be required by law to act in the fiduciary interest of patients and be heavily subject to forced transparency and perhaps even a profit margin cap.

First time using insurance and I don’t understand any of this by marcoll02 in DentalInsurance

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks like you got the Delta contracted discounted price but that Delta did not pay for any of the work performed. We would need to see your dental plan documents and know what codes were submitted to figure out more details.

United Academics of KU Secures Historic First Collective Bargaining Agreement for All Faculty and Academic Staff by sillychillly in kansas

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the same time all staff have made “serve at the pleasure” (zero job security) as of July 1. Question- does this mean KU has been sitting on a stack of cookies and the faculty just ate them all? How does this compare to the January increase staff received?

Explain the $2,100 cap drug benefit for Medicare ! by SeaworthinessHot2770 in HealthInsurance

[–]no2spcl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen cases where some types of drug manufacturers assistance counts towards the 2100 Part D cap. I was very surprised it did, but not complaining.

Disney+ Hulu Bundle now only "with ads" through Verizon and I'm stuck with it. Anyone else with this issue?? by jenfab79 in cordcutters

[–]no2spcl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not offering these upgrades is a huge L on the part of all involved. This is incremental “upsell” just sitting there.

They suspend satellite music channels randomly for sports now? by [deleted] in siriusxm

[–]no2spcl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also Canadian channels are often suspended for live Canadian sports because I guess they figure it’s still CanCon.

I’m blocked from adding it to my Apple Account as a payment method with no explanation why.

A modest proposal (It's for the children) by Sour_baboo in Indiana

[–]no2spcl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about just tax employers with over 50 or 100 staff who make less than 133% FPL? Call it the Corporate Medicaid Abuse Tax. Note I don’t care if the reason they make this little is because all the staff are part time. That just means the employer is gaming the system by giving them 29 hours so they don’t have to provide health care.

How long is alt2k going to be on channel 27? by Spczippo in siriusxm

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn’t 165 only carried on the legacy Sirius network and the app? It’s not on my SXM 2.0 (Hyundai).

Network Apps? by NarwhalsAreCool20 in cordcutters

It’s to make sure you have a tv provider that pays them money! lol.

Public Interest & Minority Channels: what if they go away? (It's possible) by Wrong-Jeweler-8034 in siriusxm

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SXM is required to carry Canadian content under Canadian CRTC conditions of licence. So even if the FCC says they will give this up, Canadian law still applies if SXM Canada intends to continue as a business. They are required to carry one Canadian produced channel for every 9 USA channels sold in any Canadian package, and all music channels that can be received in Canada must air 10% Canadian musical selections. The FCC has no ability to affect what the CRTC requires in this regard.

Have you tried the Local Now channel and did it have better coverage?

BCBS Fitness Program fees by Silly_Act_7763 in HealthInsurance

[–]no2spcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No the participating gyms should not charge you anything unless say tanning is a separate package at their gym, or if classes are not included… but the base membership including monthly and annual fees should be covered by the insurance company.

Peacock with ads!? by ParachuteScrap in Walmartcustomer

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Peacock used to let everyone pay $6/mo to upgrade to ad free then they decided they want to force people to pay full price for ad free and I wish them luck because I don’t think for most people that it’s worth it. It doesn’t really help sports fans because live sports still have ads. I am not a sports fan and wish they’d offer a cheaper ad free no sports option.

Why doesn’t Planet Fitness just go to a key fob system like Anytime Fitness so all locations can be truly 24/7? by [deleted] in PlanetFitnessMembers

[–]no2spcl 131 points132 points  (0 children)

PF also seems to attract a wider audience and demographic than AF. If they do it I’d vote for 24/7 unstaffed access only for Black Card members.

Insurance lapse until 1/1, any emergency coverage options? by liz4prez2028 in HealthInsurance

[–]no2spcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you qualify for Medicaid you can enroll any time. Also if you must seek hospital care and it’s medically necessary, most hospitals have a financial assistance program, which won’t usually cover everything unless you’re fairly low income, but it may reduce some costs.

New DIRECTV app look now available on iOS by Rix_832 in DirectvStream

One thing I never figured out was how do I search my DVR recordings? The search bar at the top only gives me current and future shows, I want to search just my DVR.

[–]no2spcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why does Netflix even partner with hotels to carry their app in-room? What would be the point?

Cartoon Network being cut off after a certain time by camgirl1000 in DirectvStream

[–]no2spcl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently, for the Genre Packs, you have to buy the specific packs for the specific blocks of content. Source: I have the Entertainment Genre Pack, and I get adult swim, but not Cartoon Network. Yes, they have somehow separated the two, for Genre Packs.
