    There partnership must be sucking cause all the employee's had no idea how to order Dish, and the Manager had to look it up on the Employee toolkit.

    Best Buy free TV

    I knew something was fishy when the Best Buy employee said he could not find a $65 plan. He showed me his screen and it was $60/$75/$85 for the thee price lock plans. We ended up signing up by calling dish. We got a $200 visa gift card, a $25 gift card and was able to keep the price lock that...

    Best Buy free TV

    Was not expecting this. Went to best buy to sign up my mother for dish and in order to get the free television. Basically every package is $10 more. Price lock was $10 over over advertised pricing on the dish website. The middle tier was $75 a month instead of $65. Over 24 months, you are...

    Moving and downgrading

    Just clicked your link and it said "Free DVR Upgrade"* *service agreement requred. It was only if you accepted the new DVR back in 2010 was you locked in a new agreement as far as how that page reads.

    Moving and downgrading

    Well. Never thought of that. If the move extends my contract, all is not. I was just going on the bases that it was free with no extension when I used it like 5 years ago.

    Currently the plans are to move and downgrade. I currently have 8 months left in contract and this is what I have planned assuming it would work instead of paying the etf. I currently have a hopper and Joey and pay $113ish a month. When I move can I cancel the hopper and Joey and order a 211 and...

    That is what it was. I forgot how many settings I had done to it based on things I have learned here. I was thinking it was either a setting or something that came with a CE Thanks Jimbo *Should I call Directv back and educate their Tech Support? :) They told me it was different because the...

    Skip ahead

    Last week I had an hr24-500 replaced by an hr24-200 Humax and now Samsung. I believe. The Humax allowed me to skip ahead without showing me the video, the samsung's skip ahead shows the video identical to a fast forward. Is this a setting that can be changed or is it a result of the...

    Returning Dish equipment

    Just an update. Still trying to resolve this, Dish called and said they want a switch. They told us it looks just like the photo in the instructions. My parents swear there was a switch that looked like the photo. I contacted Directv's installer and he told me, there was a switch, and when...

The instruction's show this huge switch with like 8 connections on it and it says according to the picture is mounted below the dish....granted they also show the dish on the roof...

    Returning Dish equipment

    The trouble is they want a switch and I can not find one. We had Dave come out and they used the old mount the Dish was on. I found The LNB but I can not locate a switch. The installer left everything in a pile for us and there is no switch. My parents swear there was one...but i can not find...

    Options (Moved)

    I think it depends on if it is a house or duplex that is being rented? We just moved from a house we rented, and they had no problem with the install (the reason we broke lease was worse) The house was more less comdemed. They refused to fix anything and when we started having a severe sewer...

    Options (Moved)

    I recently moved to a new location, the "owner" of the property; not the landlord says he does not want satelite dishes. I know, i can obviously become a pain in the butt and have one installed using the law. However, we just moved here and i do not really want to start a fight with us being in...

    My RV unit gets pixeled when the heather or microwave goes on.

    Gah I wanted to post something positive to help, but all I can come up with was something about the heather. If heather is anything like those other "named toys" it might be EMI But as bill said, sounds like a grounding issue.

    DirecTV could lose G4 (Removed 11-1)

    How much longer before the court system, starts getting involved? I for one do not care G4 is gone. I did watch it, but very seldom. I do find it funny that G4 is basically blaming D* and D* is like MEH. Which is what they should be like. Losing G4 will not affect subs, those few who leave for...

    ST to go is the best $50 ever

    When D* installed his dish, there were 3 dishes on the roof. He took all 3 down. However, he was not allowed to take the dishes with him. We took them to the dump and they accepted them.

    Moving location/installation

    The new duplex I will be moving into, has asked that we have our satelite dish installed on the ground. Using the dish finder, it appears to be a perfect location with a great open view. The question is, when I move and request installation, is this an option for me? Do they install where they...

    The grandest was the year I joined the Military. Oh back in 2000. I joined in August and I remember coming out of bootcamp all exhausted from the snow. Only to get orders to an A school in Pensacola, Florida. How amazing!

    "moved' tonight to escape north east black out on NHL network for Flyers

    I agree. They dont care, its all about the legal stuff involving politics. All D* would say is they told us they moved, we believed them.

    DirecTV could lose G4 (Removed 11-1)

    AOTS will loose its ratings, Munn has almost if not all the way stopped appearing. I dont think I will lose a tear, hopefully X-Play gets picked up by someone....or Webb can pose nude and then I will forever be happy.
