    TV1 Remote works intermittently

    The TV1 remote on my new 722 is on the fritz. It will work for days and then will stop working and you are unable to use the remote. Reboots and resets do nothing. Then eventually functionality will return. Then a few days later it stop. The duration is different and it happens at different...

    Dish Network to roll out service bundle, Blockbuster offerings

    Considering that Blockbuster is having trouble providing movie titles for the past couple of weeks it is not a good time to tout this offering.

    I made the switch to D*....my first impressions.

    Nope, he likes it. The only way that thing is coming down is when it falls down during a storm.

    I made the switch to D*....my first impressions.

    At least it worked for you! Due to a half dead humongous tree in my neighbors yard, I only get about 1-2 degrees of clearance and they wouldn't install. Leaving me stuck with Dish as D* is a no-go, Comcast and WOW are 2&3 times the money and u-verse doesn't reach. So much for competition...

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    Call back and ask to speak to a supervisor. That is what I had to do when they offered me the same PPV offer. Waited a while, but I wasn't going to accept PPV coupons for something I have never used nor the offer of channels I already pay for.

    L.O.S. and Being Under Contract

    If this happens to you and you had to pay you got screwed. I have had this happen to me twice. Once with DirecTV and once with Dish Network. Since "they" could not provide me service the contract is broken by them not me.

    L.O.S. and Being Under Contract

    However, if you haven't moved and the LOS has been lost they can not hold you to your contract as it is them who can not deliver the service.

    They told me I could bundle the multi-sport pack with my current HD plan and save $4.00 a month.

    Which SAT should you have with a 722/HD

    They have two receivers, a 722 and a 322. They have never had more than the six, not including the PPVs. The installer didn't even set up their TV correctly for the 722 to get the HD service they have paid for since July. They also told me it took 2 weeks for Dish to install the dishes...
