Thread: When will U-verse come to my town.

wellze. I just recently got Uverse, and it has been good for me, but keep in mind no service out there doesn't have there issues

I still have Dish, but have downgraded to very basic service.

My biggest gripe with Dish is you never know when they are going to play one of their games, and a channel you like gets removed

I liked Voom, and I guess I could understand why Charlie made the decision to remove Voom because he wanted to get more mainstream HD. Fine

However, the games he played really hit me when he got rid of Smithsonian. I know a lot of people argued it was fine with them because they showed a lot of repeats, but hell he replaced it with C/I. That is when I signed up for Uverse. Free installation, 30 day money back guarentee, and no contract.

The negatives of Uverse are only 2 HD and 2 SD simultaneous streams, and a few other little things, but there HD selection is terrific

I assume you are not in an area where FIOS is either, because that would be the way to go if you could

I don't see Direct playing the same games that Dish does, but Direct requires a two year contract

I just got tired of the games Charlie played, and when he removed Smithsonian, it gave me the excuse to try something else. It wasn't the removal of Smithsonian itself, but the perceived attitude I got from Dish that we are doing YOU the customer a favor.

Whether it was hauling out a whole bunch of cash for new receivers, which had their share of bugs in the early days, to being soooooo grateful when Charlie decided to throw us a bone and give us a NEW HD channel

Hell, I am the customer, and why should I feel loyal to a service if I don't feel they perform?

Competition is what made this country great
