Agreed. I had issues with billing, and continue to have issues with their
policy on delays with technology and secrecy; however, I rarely had signal
problems.

My friends have cable and it's gone out atleast 4 times in the past 6
months.
Installs inc is only used for some people. My installer was not installs inc
and I had a flawless install that took < 2 hours start to finish
Again, I repeat what I said in my prior post, I have an 18" dish and do NOT
live in a dry desert. I live an hour+ south of downtown Houston where it
rains VERY OFTEN and other than when it comes down in cats&dogs (ie
extremely heavy), I very rarely lose my satellite feed. Your statement that
you have to live in a dry desert to be able to use an 18" dish is .. well
full of holes.
Just because it doesn't work for you, where you live, doesn't mean it
doesn't work for thousands upon thousands of other people.
Don't be an ass, just accept the fact it doesn't work FOR YOU and stop
trying to say it doesn't work for everyone else.
Why bother with Voom installing a 24" dish? Go buy your own 24" or 36" dish
off the internet for < $100 and be done with your whining.
Again, your statement that Voom's reliability is crap is Y O U R experience.
Thousands upon thousands of Voom's customers are very happy with Voom's
reliability. Get over yourself!
If you want to give constructive ideas and thoughts about Voom's service, it
is welcome. Flame throwing, lying and talking about things you know nothing
about do no-one any good here.
Robert.

Comcast Cable works 100 % of the time, offers much less HD stations
costs more and their service is close to 98% perfect.
Vooms service is about 10% , Installs Inc is rated among the worst
and they ar very protective of that rating.
Voom's 18" dish works well in dry desert areas with little to no
rain
Voom's 24" if your lucky enough to get it installed works a little
better
My new 24" inch dish took 3 or 4 service called to get it installed and
it still useless in the moderate rain conditoins.
Vooms realiablity is much less than comcast ever was at it's worst
Vooms technical help , while freindly is not near technically sound as
comast cable.
If you want the most HD stations that when everything works , it works
very well and you don't mind being a paying bata tester for a few years
till Voom perfects is problems , your a perfect Voom coustomer.
As much I find fault with most of the time, I 'm still keeeping it
till HD and all of it's related interfaces gets perfected in about 3
to 5 years
