    BB@ Home disc By Mail Ending September 19th

    Don't you have to sign up from both streaming and disc by mail, if you want NF dish by mail? I didn't think NF offer the disc by mail separately. ?Ghpr13:)

    BB@ Home disc By Mail Ending September 19th

    This could help NetFlix. With BB@H out of the way, those who really want disc by mail may sign up with NetFlix for both services (disc by mail & streaming). Dish subs already know what's On Demand has to offer, so seeing what NF has to offer plus the disc by mail, might be enough to get more...

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    The Hopper still seems slow to respond to the remote commands. Whis Dish could speed up the respond time. ?Ghpr13:(

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Well my BB@H train has stopped. I sent back my last movie on the 18th of July, and still haven't received any movies yet. Upsets me because things were going so well. Back to reality! ?Ghpr13:(

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    This will be the last time I post in this thread unless something change. For me, my disk are still coming about once a week and in order of my queue. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging,so if BB@H starts messing up again I fill you all in. Also, we still have one Blockbuster store about 20...

    Don't You Hate It When ...

    Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out. (I always knew the world was round...but I also know we never really went to the Moon. It was all done with mirrors is Arizona!) :D Ghpr13:)

    Don't You Hate It When ...

    I was one who felt 3D was not going to go anywhere. I thought it would be a flash in the pan. I couldn't believe anyone would want to wear glasses at home to watch a movie. I figure, at the most, 3D might survive in the theaters, but not at home. Then I got a deal on a Panasonic 3D plasma 55"...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    So far I'm still getting BRs in order of what's on my queue. I never really looked at where the discs come from, but I a point to look at the last one I sent back. It's right here in Louisville, KY. So It should take only a day to reach the "shipping" house, and if you give them 2 days to...

    I know I have mine set to speed. I check it every couple of weeks. Yet movies that are like #5 on my queue and show "Now" for availability, still are not sent out like they should be. Ghpr13:(

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Yesterday evening I got an email saying BB@H was sending a BR to me, Zero Dark Thirty, it was the next one on my queue, well not at first, but when I was adding movies to my queue I notice Zero Dark Thirty was a "Now" rental, so I put it at top of my queue. I should get it tomorrow. This makes 3...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Well it appears BB@H is going back to their slow ways again. My last BR was received by BB@H on Friday the 21st. They still haven't processed any disc to mail out to me. So I'm waiting to see what they will choose next from my queue. I had to laugh this morning, I added some more movies to my...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    I'm not jumping for joy that it's taking 6 days turnaround time, but if I can get at least 4 movies a month out of them, I can deal with it. BB@H will never be like Netflix was when I had them mailing disc out to me, but when Netflix went to that outrageous pricing for @home disc, I gave it up...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Got Django in the mail yesterday, took about 6 days turnaround, but BB@H is continuing to send out BR that are on my queue. Will see how it keeps going. I'm mailing out Django tomorrow morning. BTW: I thought Django was an excellent movie, IMO. Ghpr13:)

    Sometimes trying to support Dish gets really hard for a subscriber... Ghpr13:(

    This is all just part of Dish trying to be our "Low cost satellite provider." :D Ghpr13:)
