Question About Channels Included in AMC+ Theme Pack

I have the latest  Optik TV brochure and it shows the regular AMC channel as part of the AMC+ theme pack. But on the Telus website it only shows AMC+, SHUDDER, IFC Films Unlimited and Sundance Now streaming channel in this theme pack. So which version is correct:

 

Brochure - AMC ( channel 303 ), AMC+ ( channel 441 ), AMC+, SHUDDER, IFC Films Unlimited, and Sundance Now ( streaming on channel 440 )

 

Telus Website -  AMC+ ( channel 441 ), AMC+, SHUDDER, IFC Films Unlimited, and Sundance Now ( streaming on channel 440 )

  • If you go to the AMC+ Channel you’ll have access to all channels in Theme Package. AMC, AMC+, Shudder, Sundance & IFC.

      Well I've got the older 4K box and on channel 441 it only shows the streaming links for AMC+, SHUDDER, Sundance Now and IFC Films Unlimited. I recently picked up the latest Telus brochure and it still shows the regular AMC channel being part of the AMC+ theme pack so maybe it's only that way for Telus customer with the newer TV cable box version.

        440 is the On Demand Channel that gives access to all the other channels ie; Shudder, etc

        441 is the AMC Channel itself.

        Maybe go into your Settings and add the channel.
  • I just picked up the latest Optik TV Channel Selection Guide and 3 months later it still shows the regular AMC channel as being part of the AMC+ package. This really needs to be fixed to stop any future confusion. If it is actually part of the AMC+ package ( which I subscribe to ) then I no longer need the Prime Time theme pack ( which I also subscribe to ). 

  • So what's the final answer here - is the latest brochure wrong in that the regular AMC channel is not part of the AMC+ theme pack or does the AMC+ theme pack need to be updated on the Telus website to show that AMC is now part of the AMC+ theme pack ???

      The regular AMC channel is not part of AMC+. On our website Here - AMC is part of Prime time and not AMC+

  • I know that AMC is part of the Prime Time theme pack but it now could also be part of the AMC+ theme pack too. This is what it says in the brochure when it comes to the AMC+ theme pack:

     

    Choose AMC+ as one of your theme packs and access a premium bundle of AMC, AMC+, SHUDDER, Sundance Now and IFC Films Unlimited titles.

     

    Plus it shows the channel icons for all of the above channels.

    Hey @BobArthur - AMC is part of the Prime Time theme pack so the AMC+ theme pack does include itself, Shudder, IDC and Sundance.
