Pricing Update from Dish Network

[red hazard]

I have 2 622's AEP + Platinum and locals, my bill went up $13.01 which is 10.8%. old bill was $119.98 new bill is 132.99. My Social Security check check went up O% this year because there is supposed to be negative inflation. Somebody forgot to tell Charlie!

I'm in the same boat as of the beginning of this year. Do you really think that Chuck gives a F--- about ole fahts?

So drop to a lower package.

Or cancel and go with another provider.

I'm disabled and in the house all day, my television and computer are all I do. Just so happens Charlie has his packages arranged so that the channels I watch are only in the AEP (Mil, Sci, Ntgeo, Disc, Foxmo, TCM, Histi, Hist, MGM, Ndnmv, Retro, Indie, Starz (Spartacus), SHO (Tudors), HBO (Band of Brothers and soon Pacific)CNN). As you see I only watch 16 channels and I am unwilling to part with any of them and I want Mil, Foxmo, TCM and Histi in HD also, and while I'm at it I want my damn Voom channels back! Oh, yeah and Smithsonian too.

But...you actually miss my point...complaning about the non-price increase, price increase. Charlie said no programming price increase, technically correct, but actually double talk BS, I'm still getting it in the rear end by 10.8%.

Not really an option here, either Dish or Direct, nothing else, and everyone knows that Dish has the best DVR, but I still have the right to complain about a no increase, increase don"t I?

Yeh, but most ears are tuning it out by now.

Well, if you are unwilling to part with any of them I guess you will have to suck it up and pay the higher cost. We all have choices in life, and this seems to be yours.

Write the FCC about your situation and your support for ala carte programming. Don't think you are getting much sympathy here though I can remember when Chuck had an advertising campaign bragging about their price increases being less that the raise of inflation.

Thanks, I was a bit bummed after the hockey game this afternoon, but your post game me that good laugh I needed to get out of that silver medal funk!
