Does anyone know how we can get BBC prime, we have signed up for showtime, is there any way we can get BBC prime?

Thanks

Through Showtime? NO! You need E-Vision or Orbit.

If you signed up with Showtime you should get BBC Prime.. no problem.
Ask their customer service how to get the signal for that station and may send a technician to do some re-tuning. We are a Showtime subscriber and we are NOT HAPPY!!! Since you've signed up already, goodluck.
