    What Snow?

    Thought he was paying too much attention to the wrong kind of_____ Cats seem to attack keyboards all the time but that's a first on me

    What Snow?

    Doesn't it always seem to target the driveway? Because of the ditches that cause snow to dump right on the roadway? Haven't really seen that around here nearly as much as back in the late 70s. The state has stopped putting out snow fences, I guess maybe both from the fewer big snow dumps as well...

    DISH Has Made it Impossible to be a VIP211k Owner

    Class action.

    There's an entire site for that called dishretailer.com, but you pretty much have to be a DiSH dealer, er, "retailer" to participate in the daily bashing. The dealers on that board were part of putting a class-action lawsuit on them for defrauding us that they were made to pay out on. And not...

    Self-owned servicers based locally to the customer (local dealers) pretty much naturally act to avoid vague/missed call times, as opposed to centralized scheduling by a fleet operator. All I can say is that I never at any point had customers waiting for open-ended hours on a call and if a call...

    My understanding is that they're not merely "offering" in-home mobile phone inception but rather making it their default path. Thick with irony, ain't it? This same outfit that used to throw "self-installation kits" at new customers to help them get their satellite going is now doing in-home...

    But what was he doing other than serving as a cog in their local-dealer-elimination program? These were the "fulfillment" guys who went around installing what DiSH, in sidestepping local dealers, direct marketed to the public. I'm sure they made out ok in helping to facilitate their suppression...

    And congrats on surviving DiSH this damn long. I was exactly the same, full service, zero dissatisfaction, but DiSH was fighting against us the whole way in doing that! You should and would have gotten much more ahead had there been any modicum of real respect for local full servicers. As it...

    I was able to renew annual with Mint at the $15/mo. rate. I don't approach the base data cap month-to month.

    DISH Has Made it Impossible to be a VIP211k Owner

    Yes, exactly, they are going to the home to set cx's up with mobile service. Presumably it's a full service like with setting up sat- programming phones, downloading apps, teaching use. Whether this would extend to in-home aftercare, IDK. As far as DiSH installers pushing ancillary items, that's...

    How the Apollo 1 Mission Changed NASA Forever

    It actually was never named or called Apollo 1 pre-fire. The fatal training exercise was later given that designation so that the guys would have an actual "mission" that they died on. This is another example of how as Americans we're lousy at foreseeing and preventing calamity but good at...

    You don't need to deal with phone stores. With an MNVO you're going want to BYOD, do everything online and be able to back it up yourself, such as by having reserve device(s) that you can readily transfer activation to in event of device loss or failure. If you must have the latest iPholly and...
