I have cancelled my shaw satellite service and have purchased 2 firesticks. who could I contact to set up and purchase service? I assume that my existing Shaw equipment has little value.

Your existing Shaw equipment MAY be of value to a snowbird who returns home to Canada in the Spring. Can't help with the Firestick programming but I know there are people who do this here. You may even want to ask Mike Merryman at Ajijic Electronics if he knows of any.

Look for BahiaTV on Facebook. I know a few people using their streaming service and are quite happy with it.

You may want to investigate IPTV (internet protocol service) services. I have a service that I have used for two years now. Loaded on my Firestick.
Happy with the programing and price.

You can use an IPTV link player as well as various APK's. I use both APK's and an IPTV link player (no IPTV services) and find I can watch anything available. Join a Firestick Support group on FB it is a great resource for codes and assistance. My only regret to dropping my Shaw (Starchoice) account from Canada is that I didn't do it sooner... I'd recommend a Firestick 4K Max or a Firecube to maximize viewing performance.

I hear ya Plan B. However, people usually prefer what they know and are comfortable with using. Expensive rut! I dumped Shaw in 2015. I've never regretted it.

I have a firestick but somehow messed up the progamming. Any suggestions for someone who can help me, my supplier is out of the country for a while.

I tried Bahia. It's OK but there are better services out there at half the price. $24 US a month is very expensive in the IPTV world.

You might try Rich Richie 33 20 51 23 98. He set mine up a couple of years ago for 500 pesos. Then he came back and tweaked it later. He can put The TVApp.to on it for you after he jailbreaks it. That has tons of programs on it for free.
