This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

We had a three year contract with Moneris Solutions to process our MasterCard and Visa payments. After over 2 years we decided we couldn't justify the monthly charges. We called Moneris to verify the end date of our contract and to ask if there would be any cancellation fees if we closed our account at the end of our contract period. We weren't told of any fees. Apparently the fine print in the contract says that if you don't use the service they can cancel you and charge you $250. We continued to pay the monthly service charges intending to payout till the end of 2014. We have two accounts with them so our fee would have been $500. We opted to just pay the minimum for the reset of the service period. What Moneris does is very clever. They continue to charge your account for months even if you don't use they service, then before your contract period is over they cancel you for not using the service and charge you $250 termination fee.The manager of customer service was rude and unhelpful. This means it will costs me $1, 000 to stop doing business with Moneris. This company is based in Canada. Don't trust them. I am using aurthorize.net. Moneris is a rip off and they should not be allow to do business in the US.

We have watched Alaska the Last Frontier for years ! Why are you listing them this year as "New" when they are only repeats or a compilation of all old shows ! Very disappointed !

Ant is a joke. Bring Ed back to the show. Ed was more informative, and had a great personality. Ant was on another show and it didnt last long. Please bring back Ed China

How are we suppose to follow street outlaws if the episodes dont follow each other. It is frustrating. Cant even catch up on youtube because the seasons aren't the same.

I'm disappointed that you cancelled Mad Dog Made. I found it very interesting and I was greatly entertained by this show.

I'm a family man, a father, and live in the Midwest.

Thanks for you time.

I'm so disappointed that you have decided to not continue with mad dog made series...we enjoy it and were looking forward to Future shows... You have made a bad decision and obviously not well thought out.

I have been watching Discovery Channel for a number of years now and I'm starting to think it's called discovery commercial any possible way you could have the program on where the commercials do not take up all the watch time.

It is to my understanding that Mad Dog Made has been canceled? This is a very poor choice for you. Finally something on T.V worth watching and you take it away?

It was cancelled with VERY good reason, I'm sure this had something to do with their cancellation, http://www.sanpetesheriff.org/files/01-08-2018.pdf
Kevin attacked his girlfriend, Robin Smith. I believe he has an order of protection against him now and cannot legally carry a firearm or a knife, which isn't exactly helpful for a show about a weapons manufacturer. That isn't the first time he had a run in with the law for violence. In a recorded phone conversation, a groomsman of Robin's son's wedding in Mississippi last year recounted how Kevin got intoxicated after the rehearsal dinner and drew a knife on Robin, then later drew his gun in "a shooting stance" on the party guests including the groom & his brother who were all in fear for their lives. It was rumored that he was found by the police on a beach, threatening to commit suicide, I am waiting to receive the police report on that. It was further rumored that he was admitted to a hospital for a psych eval and that Morgan was sent for to take him home, which I am also waiting for support docs to corroborate. This information was sent to Discovery channel to be checked out by their legal department along with the US Trustee's adversary complaint & 2004 Rule exam transcript regarding his fraudulent bankruptcy case. There is a lot more fraud that he committed that is well documented in court pleadings, exhibits, & transcripts that paint a very different picture of this man than the show would have its audience believe. Kevin has left a wake of destruction over the past decade and it was all coming out now, so Discovery did the smart thing by pulling the plug and disassociating themselves & the channel's reputation from this maniacal and Machiavellian personality.

I'm searching through the guide and see that rev'ved up has a new episode, so I turn to it only to see it's a rerun?!?
Not the first time I've seen a show described as a "new episode" when in fact it's an old rerun!
One of the main reasons I'm considering cutting the cord on cable tv.

Thanks.

You just lost a loyal and ever present viewer because of the same BS you got nailed for before. Goodbye BS Discovery!

Far to much display of a foreign flag and foreign currency etc. for a tv show filmed in Canada about mining Canadian minerals.
Far to little display of a Canadian flag and Canadian money in business transactions on Canadian soil.
I believe it may border on un Canadian or even illegal.

I live in Perth West Australia, and was just watching an episode of Aussie gold hunters that was advertised as a new episode, but when I was watching the "NEW EPISODE " I realized that I've seen this "NEW EPISODE " Before. So I want to know when the real NEW EPISODE is going to be televised? Also I don't appreciate being LIED too.

I enjoy certain shows on Discovery however the commercials have become so frequent I cannot even follow what is going on. It is very sad that you make it so obvious that advertising dollars are far more important to you than the actual shows you produce. This will eventually destroy your viewer ship if not fixed post haste...

What are the imbeciles thinking when folks like us, paying extra to get Velocity (now MotorTrend TV) from our service provider (in our case AT&T U-Verse), then asking to sign up and pay again monthly to stream content on demand?
Pathetic.
I am nearing the end of my tolerance for pay twice to play and will be dropping Discovery HD Tier soon.

since you had taken over the much liked position of the travel channel. I see you've never showed much Ray Mears and nothing at all of the booze traveler. Everything you show is about garages or Alaska. It's getting very boring. I only every now turn over to watch bear grylls. Tanked... Really? Who cares its American crap. Leave that to them..

Today I watch Naked and Afraid for the first time. You people show way way too many commercials. I understand that the promotion is part of your corporate makeup for business however it is way way too frustrating for the viewer of your channel. That was my first and last time watch a discovery. Thank you

I think you should drop this trash and keep The Last Alaskans. Its a fantastic show about Real people doing real everyday things and a much more meaningful program. Its educational as well and thats what we need in programs for television. More people like The Last Alaskans than Naked and Afraid aka Butt Nude and Scared. Please keep the program.
