    Official DISH Channel Request Thread

    Yes a read about that. I have Brighthouse cable and we have Heretv as a channel. Dish needs to add as a channel as those PPV fees add up using their on demand option.

    HERETV and FearNet please. Waiting for Dish to add before leaving my local cable operator which has had these channels for a couple of years.

    Thinking about dumping BB@Home

    Agreed. The BB at home disk service is terrible. Everything in my que always had short wait or long wait next to it and if I received 3 disks in a month I was lucky. Streaming search function cumbersome and selection of movies poor. The only thing I liked about BB was getting Universal HD...

    rain fade is killing me!

    When I had Dish I lost signal with the daily Florida thunderstorms but had OTA as back up. I remember about 8 years back I had an extra large size dish which was great. I didn't lose signal even during 3 hurricanes, even though local cable was out. I think Dish stopped offering those extra...

    retention discounts for existing customers out of contract?

    I enjoyed watching it this past weekend. Watched 3 movies. Picture quality is beautiful and not chopped up and flooded with commercials like Chiller does. Loving it.

    retention discounts for existing customers out of contract?

    I cancelled Dish last week after 12 years and it was quite some work getting them to cancel. I was offered 3 months free HBO and Cinemax plus a free Roku box and a $10 off credit for 12 months. I did not accept as it still doesn't solve the problem with Dish dropping channels I like to watch...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    I will have AMC HD back on Friday, plus CW in HD, FearNet HD, Me-tv, IFC, WE, Sundance and the Weather Channel Local forecast as I have Bright House scheduled for an install. Fortunately BH Central Florida has the channels I watch in HD. After 9 years with Dish I am finally leaving due to...

    do you really think Dish is gonna add channels requested in the "official channel request thread".

    Dish seems to be in a stagnate mode for adding channels this year. They are losing channels, but not adding anything, or anything which the customers have been requesting. I don't recall a year like this from Dish. Perhaps the money they are saving by cutting channels is needed elsewhere this...

    DISH Blockbuster@Home vs Netflix

    I am lucky to reveive 2 disks per month seeing that most of my que the titles have a short wait or long wait next to them. They don't stock enough disks to cover demand.

    Any hope of getting Me TV or Antenna TV to Dish?

    Me-TV and Antenna TV both have shows which is also airing on TV Land but my God TV Land has edited so many scenes out of each episode for more commercials it's crazy. Me-TV and Antenna TV air syndicated episodes, but they aren't chopped up to the extreme like TV Land does.

    Any hope of getting Me TV or Antenna TV to Dish?

    I also get Me-TV and Antenna TV OTA and Dish has guide information for both channels in the Orlando area. I watch both channels.

    Disney Junior

    I have been requesting FearNet for a year and watched while all 3 local cable companies in my area have added it, but not Dish. Like I said, they seem to only be adding filler channels, not channels members are asking for. Not sure what their strategy is any more.

    Disney Junior

    Dish is in channel reduction mode this year. Don't expect any new quality channels which are being requested by the customers to be added. You might see a couple new filler channels which nobody is requesting to be added though.

    DISH Blockbuster@Home vs Netflix

    BB streaming is terrible. Poor selection of content and no way to build a que online like Netflix. A pain to browse movies via the receiver. Disk at home a joke. 22 movies in my que, all have short wait or very long wait next to it in the que. Lucky if I get 2 disks per month do to lack of...

    Pac-12 Network

    You are likely right. Dish is in channel dropping mode this year. Drops channels, save millions. I don't expect anything new from Dish this year.

    Droped Dish for Comcast

    I will be switching to Bright House as soon as all the free movie packages Dish gave me to stay expires, unless of of course Dish gives me more freebies to stay again. I have been a Dish customer for 12 years and have no loyalty any longer with the way they handle the AMC fiasco, saying it was...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    Do I have to keep a basic package if I want to only use Dish for the movie pakages? Thinking about adding Bright House cable so I can get AMC back, plus FEARnet HD, The CW in HD and the all our sub locals then use Dish only for movies.

    What package do you subscribe to?

    I have always wondered why those superstations are being offered in HD. I was going to add one so I could get the CW in HD as they don't offer my local CW in HD but it's not offered HD on one of the Superstations either.
