PURCHASES: PAY PER VIEW PROGRAMS

Pay Per View (PPV) programs are DIRECTV programs that you
purchase—like a movie ticket—on an event-by-event basis if you
subscribe to DIRECTV
labelled "PPV" in the DIRECTV program guide. A channel labeled PPV
could run nothing but previews for movies. After previewing the
movie, you can purchase it or find out more details about it.
PURCHASING AND PREVIEWING
There are several ways to purchase and preview DIRECTV Pay Per View
movies and events if you subscribe to DIRECTV programming:
• Tune to a Pay Per View program's channel. Program providers may
offer on-screen purchase instructions, usually as the Pay Per View
program begins.
• Highlight a Pay Per View program from the program guide and
press INFO.
• Preview a coming attraction by selecting a channel from the
Attractions Guide.

TUNING TO A PAY PER VIEW PROGRAM

When you use the channel up and down buttons or digits on the
remote control to tune to a Pay Per View channel, you need to press
the INFO button to bring up the Program Details screen in order to
purchase a program.
