    HBO Max not working- says not subscribed any longer through dish

    I am having the same issue with the ESPN and MSNBC apps on my phone. I am no longer authorized to watch either since Dish is incapable of validating my account.

    Dish Network shares fall on Bank of America double downgrade

    True, but having no way to get issues resolved for almost a week (so far) certainly won't help Dish Network churn numbers, not to mention installs and upgrades that can't be completed. Also lost PPV revenue. And a public relations / marketing black eye, esp. if it turns out there was a private...

    DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

    I dunno ... maybe there should be a little fear. A six day outage for any customer service / billing seems unprecedented.

    DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

    What's the difference? In my case I need to get a "hit" sent to a receiver that had been unplugged for a while. I guess that won't be happening for a while. :rolleyes:

    Cannot drop package via MyDish

    I am looking to streamline by Dish package a bit. On MyDish I was able to get rid of the Dish Movie Pack and save $10 a month (my wife and I barely watch it). I was also going to drop Multi-Sport, or at least try to drop it and see if I am offered a deal to keep it. However since this weekend...

    Disney Networks Dispute Recitifed

    After an hour on the phone, then another hour waiting for the mydish support chat queue, I find out that losing ESPN channels / Disney channels / local ABC for an unknown period of time is worth $5. At least the chat rep let me know that they are hoping to have the channels back by the end of...

    Disney Networks Dispute Recitifed

    Perhaps the contract will be backdated dated to 10/1 whenever it is signed, but I highly doubt Dish would pay Disney for channels that they were not allowed to broadcast.

    Disney Networks Dispute Recitifed

    Like has been said here, Dish is making money on this dispute because they surely pay more than $5 a month for the ESPN / Disney / FX channels (and the O&O ABC that I lost as well). And they make even from those that don't ask for a refund for channels they are paying for but no longer get.

    Disney Networks Dispute Recitifed

    I gave them a day. I'm asking for a discount now. Why should I be paying for channels I am no longer getting? And if their discount is $5 I will certainly keep that in mind the next time I compare providers.

    I am in the Philadelphia market and ABC6 was pulled as well. Guessing all the ABC O&O stations are pulled (NYC, LA, etc.)

    Replacement remote for 211Z, 211K

    I told them (truthfully) that remote #1 was completely dead. They still were adamant that we had to go through all troubleshooting steps, including receiver reset, etc. They also kept bringing up Receiver #1 vs. Receiver #2, which was not applicable to my setup.

    Replacement remote for 211Z, 211K

    Update: I contacted Dish Support chat via Facebook, they quickly responded and sent me two new remotes free of charge since I have Dish Protect Silver. Thanks for those here who pointed me in the right direction. My only complaint now is why their Customer Support via their main phone number is...

    Replacement remote for 211Z, 211K

    Thanks for the info, I'll look into that. And note to admins - I read that the Dish DIRT team is no longer allowed to support their customers via satelliteguys, so you may want to remove the "Our DISH Forum also features AWARD WINNING support from the DISH Internet Response Team! (DIRT)" from...

    Replacement remote for 211Z, 211K

    Hi, first post in quite a while. I have two remotes for a 211Z and a 211K that have become troublesome. The first remote stopped functioning altoghether, even with a fresh set of batteries. None of the lit buttons would work, and of course it would not control the receiver. I actually threw this...

    211z playback problems

    I jusr had a faulty 211 (the old silver version) with a EHD replaced with a 211z, and I am seeing the same issue. About half of the recordings from the 211 are not watchable with the 211z, with the same symptoms as noted above. When I connect that EHD to a 211k on my account everything plays...

    211 HDMI Port

    One of my 211s also just had the HDMI port go out, but my TV has a component input as well so I can switch to that. I've had this 211 for several years and I don't even recall if this receiver is "leased" or "owned" and if that makes any difference in getting a replacement from Dish. How...

    Pac 12 Network

    I didn't check during football season, but now during basketball once again the Alt channels are never utilized. I've also noticed that in the past the national PAC 12 channel would occasionally mention games carried on a regional channel, but they never do that anymore. Sometimes those...

    Disney to spin off ESPN?

    ESPN paid way too much for the NBA, paid way too much (more than any other channel) for crappy Monday Night Football games, and also overpaid for most other big time pro and college sports. They overpaid because they thought they could just continually pass the costs onto cable/sat companies...

    DVR service fee

    What's a Hopper? :) I feel so old-school with my 722K and 211s (each with an EHD). And I don't get on here much either, just dropped by to find out about the NBC/Comcast dustup.

    Pac 12 Network

    What regional Pac-12 channels on Dish? Dish has never offered any of the regional Pac-12 channels. They do have a few alternate channels, they used to use them on occasion for overflow basketball games but I noticed this year they were never used. Did you mean to say Dish does *not* have the...
