I pay the extra $$ for this mag with my Starhub cable. It doesnt have any of the channels I watch except for one of the movie channels. in fact anything over Channel 60 doesnt seem to exist as far as it is concerned. What is the point if it doesnt have all the programming for all channels it offers? I cant see one.

You can actually opt out of the magazine (that's what I did) because it is indeed useless and I always used the online guide.

Yup, Aliya, you could have saved a few $$ each month (possible to opt out for 4 years now, so enough for a brunch!) and save a few trees.

And it's always out of date for sports.

It really is a totally useless magazine. The only thing I get any use from it for is seeing if anything new is starting up, which occasionally I miss otherwise.

Since you both opted out of it, do you guys have a good way of getting rid of it?

I have tried to opt out of it twice before and still it comes and still they bill me the $2.50 or whatever it is every month. First time I rang and cancelled it, second time I did it on-line with call follow up, neither method worked. Perhaps I am just too nice on the phone. :D

I moved to the UK.

Did it online if I remember correct (the cancellation, not the move)

Hmm, that reminds me, I'm sure we're paying for a cable mag but haven't yet received one.

Maybe I got yours, then.

Definitely wasn't expecting one.

I opted out over 6 years ago! It's totally useless.
