    Disgusted with Billing & Technical Support

    I have been a faithful Dish subscriber since August 1997. Let me start off by saying, the inital problem was my fault. I am on auto-pay. My debit card was replaced and I forgot to notify Dish of the change in number. The day after the due date, on Wednesday night we received a very...

    Life Expectancy of UG Antenna Cable

    When I installed my dish system in August 1998, I used the standard satellite antenna cable which I obtained from Radio Shack. I had one of the two cables go bad so I had to replace it. It was buried in a trench between 12" and 15". It was a pain in the butt as I had to 're-trench'. I...
