    Something Dish, Direct, etc don't want you to know...

    EXACTLY !! A-LA-Carte is not the answer. You WILL PAY more this way rather than bundled packages. ESPN is opne of the highest priced channels out there at $4 per subscriber. Now add in the costs for all the Fox chs., Disney, Discoveries, etc...... and TAH DAH you have the rediculous prices...

    DISH Network Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2010 Financial Results

    Here's some behind the scenes info as to why Dish may be more profitable and a little conspiracy theory (for the tinfoil hat wearing people) as to why DTV is doing so well. First - Dish profits. Behind the scenes Dish has been on a witch hunt toward retailers who sign up customers who have...

    Dish Network goes global?

    If you have a legal Dish account hooked up to Sling there is no way to know where "you" are accessing your account. There is nothing illegal about this. If you are talking about accessing in multiple locations you just need multiple accounts here in the states with Dish & Sling. I would...

    looking into a job with a dish network subcontractor in dayton ohio

    You may want to look into working for a local retailer. They pay by the job but, in most cases, the daily pay is higher if the jobs are there. Just my $.02

    What do you think....is this a scam?

    Big time scam. This guy is making the rounds and getting many retailers terminated who take him up on his offer.

    FX begins to feel the ratings effect.

    DING DING DING..........WINNER WINNER WINNER. This and only this will stop this price increase frenzy. If consumers would just let anyone who advertises on these channels know that they would boycott their products if they continue to advertise on these channels, we might, just might, stop...

    DIRECTV and Google Enter into Ad Sales Partnership

    I was thinking the same thing until I read the entire article. This kind of explains the method to the madness. "The Google TV Ads network, launched in 2008, has served more than 100 billion impressions to date, according to the company. It lets advertisers buy national advertising...

    So who's jumping ship? and a message to Charlie

    Are you listening to or reading what you're writing? Why do you think Dish is cheaper "by a few bucks"? Why do you think Charlie is fighting the programmers? What are you going to do if you jump ship and your bill keeps going up because your new provider keeps bending over and taking what...

    So who's jumping ship? and a message to Charlie

    So let me see if I understand you correctly. Charlie is sticking up for the consumer by saying no to rate increases, so you want to thank him for this by leaving!?! :rolleyes: All the other providers need to grow a set and do the same thing to put a stop to the greed and ridiculous price...

    Dish Network deals....im very unhappy with them!

    OP you just need to read this statement and then let it go. This statement hits it right on the head. Wait for your 1 year and then try again. But as other people have posted, there is no free HDDVR upgrade right now. $100 per box is the best and in some cases it's $200 per box. It all depends...

    Are you a teacher?

    Most districts nationally are offering early retirement bonuses. I'm guessing theirs was a nice offer.

    a secret dish does not want you to know

    This is correct. Existing customers will have the option of signing a new 24 month agreement with cc auto/paperless billing or just pay $99. This is the same thing for new customers.

    hughesnet or wildblue?

    If you're going to use the internet daily you will want Hughes. Their FAP is much more lenient. Wildblue limits your usage and will shut you down when you hit your limit. Hit your limit frequently and they can terminate your service all together. This is the biggest complaint I get...

    APD On DC Dude

    Very common for those guys up there. Most get failure to appears because they are out fishing. It's a tuff decision for them. Go to court and miss out on the season or wait till season is over and deal with it then. Most choose the latter.

    Not just trying to get something for nothing but DISH flat out lied!

    Because no one but the OP and the Dish CSR were the only ones on the original call, this will be just a game of "he said, she said". I hear this all the time and a majority of the time the customer tends to hear what they wanted to hear. Example......... maybe the word "IF" was in the...

    Agreed. I had the pleasure of meeting him at a fishing show out here in So Cal. He's a really great guy and is going to be missed.
