Is Fox Sports 1 channel free with dish?

Posted at: 2015-05-07 
Fox Sports 1 is a new channel that is available August 17th... but what i want to know if it is free with dish network?

you might need the sorts package

Fox 1 is taking over Speed Channel which is 150 on Dish

I guess the rub for me is that you purchase the Sports package and Dish leaves off the Fox Sports channel 150 and maybe others. Advertised as the complete College Spiorts Package for Football season but it is incomplete without Fox Sports, isn't it? I bought it to watch the Baylor game against SMU earlier today but was not happy to find I had to upgrade both to the 200 channel version of Dish after adding the Sports Package and determining that it did not include Fox Sports 1. This is not what I have come to expect from Dish.....

I called and they wanted me to upgrade my entire package to get Fox sports 1 which was substantualy more per month, they wont let you purchase the channel individually. I dont want the other channels and will never watch them so it is a huge waste of money. I think Comcast and direct tv offer fox sports 1 in their basic packages so I will be switching to one of them. The way dish sets up their packages is idiotic and makes no sense.

Hi there Rudy! My name is Kimberly and it is my pleasure to provide you with the information you need. Fox Sports 1 is available in our America's Top 200 package, America's Top 250, America's Everything pack, DISH Latino Max, and our International Sports package. If you subscribe to one of this packages it made available to you at no additional cost.

It is ridiculous you need to upgrade everything for that one channel. I am sure getting tired of Dish doing this. I will be looking to switch providers as soon as my contract is up. I had to upgrade package just to get the multi sport package! why can't i get multi sport with what i already have!

Apparently it isn't free.. I too bought the sports channel just to watch baseball play offs since I am anxious for St. Louis Cards to beat San Fran. I am very disappointed and will be looking else where for my TV source

I have the lower plan, yet pay extra for a "Sports Tier", and Fox Sports 1 is not included. Pretty asinine.

Yes, America top 200 or above you get it free
