Is GolTV HD no longer available?

Bell has never carried the full-time GolTV HD channel.

According to the website, it looks like ABC Spark SD & HD will continue in free preview this month.

Also, Disney XD HD is in it's last month of free preview during May.

The only new preview I can see is Action (SD only) on channel 334 for the month of May.

Channel 723 GMA is having a free preview until June 8th. I believe this is a Filipino Channel.

boxoctosis · 2012-05-23, 02:38 PM

speaking as a non filipino, gma makes a refreshing change to the pap served up on most channels.

crazy games shows - haven't got a clue what is going on - but hey it's better than watching late night programming on network tv

So, I'll ask again, what are the previews for June? They are often announced ahead of time.

I guess we can call TVO disappearing a de-view for June?

No need to delete post this time.

It has been discussed many times here before that if you want to see what the free previews are, all you have to do is press the GUIDE button until you see the ALL CHANNELS list.

From there, just PAGE UP or PAGE down and scroll through the guide. When you see a channel where all the program names are followed with "(INFO)" that is a good sign that that channel is in free preview. Just press info on that channel and it will tell you the dates of the free preview in the EPG. For example, if you go to ABC SPARK, you will see the "(INFO)" in the guide after each program name.

If you press info you will see that the free preview is on until June 30.

This should avoid posts of people asking what is on free preview until someone posts it.

Channel 422 Leafs TV is on a free preview in the Leafs region. It will probably last until the Calder Cup Final is over.

SportsFan · 2012-06-01, 09:01 PM

The HD version of Leafs TV isn't on a free preview?

422 is now available across Canada, not just the Leafs region. It's probably because of the Calder Cup final.

Panache,

The purpose for me posting is to tickle the thread, so that we (including myself; of course I scan all chanels, search for info, go on the free preview channel, etc) remember to post. In addition to the methods you mention, there is sometimes info put out by the network. I've put new info several times.

There are lots of posts being made on this site, to worry about whether mine needs to be avoided, buyt thanks for the concern.
