    Under a commitment after being told i would not be.

    Been a dish customer for 4-5 years, never under a commitment sine my original 18 month one. Last fall, after trying to figure out ways to save money due to both my spouse and I being out of work, I called Dish to see what i could do to get my bill lowered. I lowered a package level...

    Issue on Saturday Night (UFC)

    Ok, a quick background, a few months ago we disconnected our home phone to save money, and have been paying the $5 a month for not having our dvr hooked up. I wanted to watch the UFC(HD)pay per view , and knew i would probably have to run an ethernet cable to purchase it, but then i found...

    Local FOX channel out of sync.....

    I had it too, with my local fox station, and when i contacted them, they blamed the provider, which for me happened with Comcast, and then again with Dish. I bet its the equipment that the Fox affiliates are using.

    Why rent Dish Online when free elsewhere?

    maybe not everyone wants to sit in front of the PC to watch their shows? its 99 cents, its a fair price for some extra convienience. Also, is it commercial free on dish? NBC makes money by selling ads on their site, as does Hulu. NBC may require the payment as part of the agreement...

    How much longer will you be with Dish?

    Sometime after Feb, if they dont add more channels, and if they wont give me a decent package to switch to Eastern Arc, I am sick of the drop outs i get on 129 every time the sky turns mostly cloudy.

    TurboHD w/ Comcast internet in an Apartment

    You may want to check that price on internet, i know it used be discounted to that $42 a month price for having TV service... just double check your bills and ask questions, so your not surprised. It used to be 39.99/54.99 pricing... so i would be careful on that. As for not having a...

    TurboHD w/ Comcast internet in an Apartment

    Correct me if i am wrong, but i think that Comcast is giving you a $10-15 discount on your internet by having the cable TV, so if you get rid of TV, your internet goes up by $10-15 a month. That may eliminate all your savings from switching. When I left Comcast, I switched to a...

    My issues with dish

    Sounds like you need to get your dish re-peaked to the satellite. A Minor adjustment could make a huge difference.

    HD hasn't worked for a month?

    Yes, Yellow screen is for when your Over the Air channels are not coming in. It has nothing to do with Sat reception, theres a seperate input for the OTA antenna maybe taht has come loose?

    Sound Like A Good Deal??

    I wouldnt take the deal, i bet if you initiate the call to cancel and go the retention route you will get something better I called ready to leave (as I had a great offer from Comcast for 12 months) once my commitment was up back in Feb, and I got a great deal, granted i wasnt getting new...

    Very angry with Dish right now

    I would escalate the issue, they shouldnt make you jump thru the hoops like that, or take away your channels for that long of a period of time. I also dont think you should have to extend your contract, they knew these things were coming down the road a couple of months ago.
