Last year I had no problem cancelling the feeds. I was putting it off for a bit because I was scared that it was going to be like trying to cancel AOL (which was sheer hell for me).

I told them I wanted to cancel, they asked why and I told them BB was over and I will sign up again next year. They offered the free month, I said no. And they thanked me for using their service and will see me next year.

It was too good to be true, and I waited for the next month to see if I was charged and I wasn't. I think they are starting to get use to having the major spike in SeasonPass orders and then the major drop at the end of the summer.

Of course I will be getting the feeds, its not the same without them! Have gotten them since bb2. Actually tried getting them at the end of season 1 but the feeds were so poor. I was on dial up with the feeds for 2 yrs, it was really bad would still have to read the LFP's to really get a clue! BB is not BB without the feeds especially having high speed connection if you ask me! Well worth the money and I have never had a problem cancelling except for the first year, they get you with that free stuff then you forget...not do that again! I do however understand people that can't afford it and thats what you come here for, lol!

I would not feel comfortable sharing my real password and stuff with someone I didn't know, sorry, its just kind of scary. My daughter used my sign on info and used it at her boyfriends but had dial up, she would get mad call and say what are they doing!

The feeds are great and if you can afford them you should treat yourself to them just one time! I hear alot of people saying they cancel at the end of the 14 days but heck thats just when it starts getting really good if you ask me! I'm East Coast had alot of really late nights that I had to pay for, lol, but oh they were so worth it! The fight between Michael and Eric, Janelle & Beauh's(Sp)...those were all late night great ones!

I will be on vacation June 30th until July 8th we will take the laptop but think we will be limited to dial up, may have to drive around trying to still wireless, lol. But will be watching the show that first night and can catch up on the feeds when I get home!

So treat yourself if you never have had the feeds its well worth 30 bucks!

Yoohooo…

Oh, dear kindhearted BB fans…anyone willing to school me on what I need to do to sign up for live feeds.

God help me if this is a good season….I have and addictive personality….I may never see the sun shine until this season is over.

Yes, I will be getting the feeds. I think I can afford $30 for 3 months.

I've had the live feeds every year since BB2. It just wouldn't be summer without them!

Yes, I will be getting the feeds this year. If anyone knows if a code has been put out yet, would they please post it here?

I'm hoping the Season Pass is $29.99 again and there is a $5.00 coupon code. I didn't really have a problem getting them to stop it and I'm wondering if those of you that did were on the month-to-month pricing or if you just purchased the BB Season Pass?

Cricket, I spoke to someone at Real and they told me the price was $39.99 for the season pass. I posted in another thread hoping for better news from someone, but if not I'll pay the 40 cause I NEED my feeds!

I'll be getting the LF again through CBS this year...but as usual will have trouble getting Real to cancel it. I'll pay for an extra month (or three) before it gets cleared up

I've never had a problem with them cancelling my sub at the end of Big Brother. But for those of you who do, I think the idea of changing your expiration date to the month before you're next charge is due is a good idea.

Likely, but it depends on who you are voting in. I'm waiting to see who you guys put in cuz I'm not seeing lists I like. George? Allison? Cowboy? OMG!

Yea yea - I'm sure I'll get the feeds. :-(

I will get the feeds this year if they allow me to use my windows media player like they did in with listening to the hamsters pleas for votes.

I won't put real on my computer.

That won't be a option - sorry Nynana - the agreement is between CBS & Real.com so that is the route you will have to go.

Of course I will be getting the feeds again. I have had them since BB2. I did have a problem with Real charging me for an extra month the first year.

My solution: I go into my account and change the expiration date of my credit card on or about September 1st.

Thanks, Rainlvr. Guess they think we're willing to pay more for the 'all stars.' I'll probably still get them, depending on who gets selected to be in the house. Some of the previous years' contestants were just too gross. Last year was less gross than the year before; not people-wise, but discussion wise.

Ok, I just found this link to this guy's page in Janelle's forum and he lets you watch his feeds on his page for "free" if you have "100 gold coins" from his site which you get 50 for registered and 50 for just posting ONCE. I thought it might help those who cannot afford the feeds. I signed up because I wanted to check it out. I don't know what quality his feeds will be, but he did say people with dial-up would have problems with his site. He has a lot on his site besides a forum. He has games and all kinds of things. It's worth a looksie even if you're feeling a bit leery about it. :-)

Link to Sa3bin's site w/free feeds This link isn't working so I'm going to go to Janelle's forum and see if I can get a working one from there. I posted this in case I don't have time to edit it once I find it!}

Well, the link listed on the page is the same one I put in and it works from Janelle's forum so I'm posting the link to the page there.

Free Feeds link at Janelle's forum

I don't know why, but when I post the link for that site it won't come up but those are the properties of the link he posted and what's listend on my saved favorite???? Eh!

Try this address http://sa3bin.zapto.org/news.php. Your original link was pointing to a banner.

PS I don't know this site and I am not registered there.

Nope, too much money, and I agree with Zoogirl, I hated cancelling AOL it was ugly.

I would like to get the feeds but I have dial up so I'm not sure it will be worth it. I might try the 14 day free trial to see how well it works and then decide.

Thanks Dan. Well you can watch from this guy's site w/o paying anything. He has a system for earning "gold coins" which are just online gold coins... It's worth a try if you don't want to pay the money. I really can't vouch for the guy other than I found his link from Janelle's site and well, I love Janelle...not that that means anything about this guy, but when I checked out the site, it was kinda cool.

Yoda, I now have dial up, I watched seasone 1-5 on hi speed, and having dial up last year was kind of like hitting a brick wall.
BUT I wouldn't have a season without the feeds. The sound was always good, occassionally you went to 'slideshow mode' but slow feeds are 1,000 x better than none!
