• On December 31, Music Choice will be changing the way they deliver content and its channels (801–850) will no longer be available in satellite-served locations. This change is not something that GCI has control over.

• We have heard from many of our customers that they would prefer a more modern, efficient streaming service for TV content and we are excited to announce the gradual replacement of our current GCI TV service with our new TV streaming service, Yukon TV! For current GCI TV customers, your current package is available on Yukon TV and you can switch to Yukon TV and get 60 days free! If you want to continue to access this content in HD, please explore Yukon TV or call GCI customer service at 800-800-4800 to make the switch today. As part of our gradual transition to this exciting new viewing experience, beginning Nov. 18, 2020, the HD versions of certain channels, listed below, will only be available on Yukon TV (these networks will currently remain available on the same channels listed below in standard definition, so any recordings set with the ability to record in SD should not be disrupted):
