So going back to my original question, I guess when Verizon says a new channel is live it’s best to assume it’s not and give it an undetermined period of time to be viewable.
When did Verizon announce the channel addition? I must have missed it.
What medium/forum do you consider to be official for channel availability announcements? My DVR notifies me when new channels are added, but I believe that data comes from a third-part service that may not be considered official. When in doubt I use the Verizon FiOS TV website with my zip code entered so the guide shows what is available in my area. As previously stated, 616 is listed there and until today everyone at Verizon I spoke with confirmed that it should in fact be available at my service location. From what I have read in other forums, folks with STBs have seen the channel appear in their channel guide but get the “not subscribed” error while others can view it just fine. I'll also add that when 116, the SD version of 616, was added just a week or two earlier it was and still is viewable at my location.
