Well looks like things turned very sour quickly. I agree that this effectively ends the advantage it had and now I am very hesitant to consider it. Especially when DirectTV offers more. Also no more welcome pack so now its up to 25USD a month mainly to watch 2 channels... bah.. Tho I will...

I have lowered my plans quite a bit. After experiencing the "quality" or lackthereof from Digital Cable and the realization that they are actually charging me 100USD a month not 88 (Just to get frakking movie channels) I don't want to go that route ever again. The only thing I really want is...

In my opinion I think there is a chance it can come back. The decision to go with FLEX was a very stupid one for Dish as it started to come about deep in the recession which is only now starting to end. Now actual day to day I doubt I suspect it will be closer to weekly purchases. Likely...

I will admit it is an interesting offer. May I get feedback on if this scenario is possible? I want to get the everyday Dish Family pack and then on top of that add the Basic Turbo HD package tho I note with worry that I seem to be unable to find Turbo HD anywhere anymore... I will want to...

What is with this "All you need to know" nonsence? If I want to spend money earned by backbreaking labor I think I am atleast entitled to request more info. You don't have to give it to me obviously but this "All you need to know" junk needs to end. Frankly I do not know enough. Yes I learned a...

That 5 USD Reactivation fee is still related and in my view silly as it ought to be a simple software switch to reactivate things. Also it looks like FLEX is quite a burden of Retailers. I called all my local retailers and they said they did not support FlexTV were they lying because they...

I agree alot more info is requested.

That ends my interest for sure now. I thought that this was a way to "pay" for service like buying a year of Skype for a certain amount. If I want to end it no way in heck do I want to pay "termination fees" The more a read the more I am depressed. Its no wonder they want to kill prepaid as...

I am sorry to bump this again but I really do need these questions answered. Already it looks like I will just have to go with Comcast and I would rather not if this could work.

Calling my local Dish Network number only resulted in a VERY Rude hangup by the person on the other end because I just wanted info and apparently they want a phone number for that. I called for info and I was rudely disconnected :( Prepaid was alot easier than this I am sure...

The great thing is here is Shreveport it is not too difficult to get 3,12,21,24,33,45 6 is a bit of a mess and LPB took some time to work until they increased power.

I have a topic about FlexTV started on this forum. If you could help answer the questions there it would really help ease ones transition to FlexTV.

That info helps a great deal. I assume you are a retailer by the way you are speaking? However what if a customer has hardware he/she had from a previous install? Does dish demand you sell the customer new hardware or can you hand a customer a smartcard and send them on their way? If a...

Hello folks. I was utterly devastated to learn that the prepaid option was coming to an end. I have absolutely NO will to be involved in some contract or commitment and the idea of installing the dish and paying for what you want when you want myself was like a dream come true until I learned...

Perhaps this title ought to be renamed and an edit placed on the first op? You have no idea how devastated I was after reading through 16 pages and going to the last only to find I could not get in on this. I had it all planned out and was preparing to go to radio shack when I went to the last...
