    Adding a 2nd HDTV, shocked at the price, what are my options....

    Thanks for suggestions I'm really not liking the idea of taking down the ceiling to fish a wire through the floor so I think I'm going to just do #4 above. Plus if I did the RG6 for compontent cables I would actually need 4 of them upstairs, one for the cable coming in and then 3 for the...

    Adding a 2nd HDTV, shocked at the price, what are my options....

    So this is what it's sounding like my options are... 1. Buy another 211 for $370 (not going to do) 2. Play roulette with the CSRs to try and lease another one for $49 and would renew the contract (probably not going to happen) 3. Run an HDMI from the upstairs receiver to the basement, so...

    Adding a 2nd HDTV, shocked at the price, what are my options....

    Situation: Switched from cable 3 months ago, had a major contract dispute with Dish because they lied to me about the promotions and pricing and I had to file complaints with the Attorney General to get their attention. Basically it's been hell, had the installers out 3 times due to signal...

    I made a terrible mistake going to Dish through All Sat, what are my options?

    I ordered over the phone so the only thing I signed was when the installer installed my dish. All Sat is selling these packages and not disclosing the $49.99 fee along with the fact that the $10 off for 10 months is only good if you fill out a form and only for the HD SILVER and up, but they...

    I made a terrible mistake going to Dish through All Sat, what are my options?

    Yep I'm aware of that... Basically there are 3 charges I'm disputing. 1. Programming Access Fee when both receivers are hooked up to the phone. I think they took care of this today but haven't seen it yet. 2. HD Bronze package does not have a promotion of $39.99 a month according to Dish...

    I made a terrible mistake going to Dish through All Sat, what are my options?

    I was paying $70 a month for cable with HD DVR. Thinking I could get a better deal with Dish so someone referred me to All Sat and I gave them a call. The rep I talked to said they had a promotion going where the Dish HD Bronze package was $39.99 a month for 10 months, then $49.99 a month...

    Can I make local antenna channels without a satelitte box go through the stereo (5.1)

    I was signed up for Dish Network, but I'm cancelling because All Sat basically lied to be about the promotion they were offering and won't honor it so I'm paying way more than I expected. But I've come to realize something....95% of the time I watch locals. If I need my fill of ESPN I can go...

    Please help me out, new to Dish need a deal and information, frustrated...

    "5 If you are confused now about dish wait till you get one and try to get service." Well, that doesn't sound very encouraging! I did just hook up an antenna direct to the TV. It did pick up most of the channels, NBC was a little fuzzy but others worked great. I have the antenna in front...

    BHN Customer Service Rocks

    I wish I could say the same for Brighthouse here in Michigan. My 12 month promotion just ran out ..... bill jumped up to $95 a month (!), called them up and told them I'm switching to Dish, they didn't take the bait and offer to give me another promotion, so I guess I will actually be...
