Dish new HD Pack for Puerto Rico

Dont wory it is not the reciver. If this does not work then the problem is with the channels not being activated on you account. Belive me I went all this week through this until today. And then got more than I was expecting to achive.
 
I called so many times today the last agent told me that he was reviewing the heckload of notes other agents placed explaining what I went through

still nothing but the crap pr pack we had before

the last agent in a polite way said "stfu and wait until august1:D"
so I guess thats all we can do
I HIGHLY doubt my receiver is damaged since it is brand new and passed the activation like a champ and has been working smoothly all day.I even got the new local channel 54 so that means it cant be a problem with receiving the activation signals from headquarters

to anyone having the same issue as me just wait until the first, 2 more days wont kill us
Cheers
 
That was the weirdest thing. All of my HD channels, even the older ones, had disappeared. I was watching the new HD channels earlier today. I called Dish a second time and they said they needed to put the "new" PR HD package on my account which was $10 instead of $9.99. Once they did that my old channels showed back up but the new channels are still in red. OK, since I started this post they are dropping off. I no longer see the new HD channels in red...they are completely gone. I give up. I just hope August 1st brings them back. :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

Hi people after 2 hour in the phone with my new friends at Colorado advance engeniring department, Tier 2 engeniers, I have achived the unachivable. As you can see the screen shot of my account, it reflects the Plantinum Pkg activated along with the PR DMA locals. I am watching all the HD channels available in the platinum pkg right now along with the locals for PR and the lineup that they activated today is also showing up in all of my boxes. I am reciving the AL/HI/PR/VI HD Pkg on the 4900-32 range off of sat 110 and the rest of the HD's not available in that range are coming off of 61.5. For examples MGM, Universal HD, NFL HD, NetGeo HD and so on. Aslo CI and WGN are turned on of off sat 110. Plus come saturday I also get the $10 discount of the platiunum service.

This is good information! You call the shot about the HD starting yesterday!

Hey Guys anyone want to play NFL fantasy I still have two spaces in my league! Send me a pm and i send out the password to you!

I have a VIP622 with 110 and 119 Antennas. I am getting an Error 004 To change channels press up or down ....

Cannot see this channels
CMDY, LIFE, Food, HGTV, A&E, FX, TBS, MTV, Spike, NICK, DISN, TOON, DISC, TLC, CNN, TWC

Can See
USA, HIST, Bravo, TNT, ESPN, ESPN2, DISXD, APL, CNBC, HDNET, HDTHR, HDNMV

What is going on?

I found out something, I went to TV2 and everything was OK. I have a diplexer for the distribution of TV2 throught the house. The diplexer is connected to TV2 coaxial out and TV2 SAT IN. TV1 SAT IN I believe comes from a SW21 directly to the receiver. I went and switched the SAT IN from 2 to 1 and now TV1 is ok but TV2 is still giving me the errors. Can anyone tell me a solution for this?
 
Well I commit the Cardinal Sin. Trying to help a friend I gave the CSR my account as an example and the CSR changed my package and I lost ALL MY BELOVED HD... I spent 3 hours with so many different people and nobody helped me. They tried, but damn I specifically told the CSR don't change anything!!!!! yezzzz I don't even have the new channels or the Old PR Package. So the only HD I have right now are the Premiums.

I noticed that besides Nel, only the People with the Latino Packages got the new HD.

Rdavidowski, can you give me the name and the CSR number of the person that helped you...

Thanks
Tom

AAAAAARRRRRRRRRGH!!!!
Man, I feel for you. The arbitrary and uneven powers (or stupidness) of the CSRs is incredible.... Sorry....:(
 
nel what package and programing do you currently have in your account?I am willing to upgrade to silver if its needed to get the new HD :(
or is anyone getting the new HD with classic bronze 100 and PR locals along with the old HD pack for puerto rico?
 
can anyone with bronze 100 and the HD package get the new channels?
I have:
Current Programming: Classic Bronze 100 Local Channels: Puerto Rico DMA Package Premium Channels: 1 Yr Cinemax for a Penny with Autopay Participation, HBO, Showtime Unlimited International or Ala Carte Add-ons: AK/HI/PR/VI HD PAK, TV2 Receiver Connection is this good for the new HD channels or will I have to upgrade to silver package?
 
I'm in St. Croix and they appeared for me yesterday in the 170is channel range. No calls, no problems, they were just there.

Now if only I could get them to turn on VS in HD for hockey season off of 61.5 I'd be set.

So now if you live in the USVI, off of 1 4 foot Dish you can get quite a bit of HD, this is great!

what package are you subscribed to at the moment?
 
I have the Everything Package, yeap I pay a lot but my family and I hardly rent movies so I watch them all on the Premiums. I upgraded to the AT250 to get the Tour de France and it was a better deal to upgrade to the Everything Because they gave me 3 months free for HBO and Showtime..

I'm at work but I will continue to make the life misserable to the CSRs for their mistake... I had that package since the original VOOM days, when they first added 10 channels and billed $10 for them. Then the VOOm pckg got expanded, and then eliminated for all those great channels that I had. I can even describe my frustration, I didn't watch SD channels anymore. Only the Networks until Tuesday when I got the Chicago Locals in HD from mydistantnetworks.com.. So frustated that I considered cancelling my 12 year old account last night..

Hi Tom

I am realy sorry, boy those CSR are something. I did not talk to any CSR to get what I got yesterday. I comunicated directly with the Advance Engeniring Dptm. they are the ones able to make any changes. Both guys that worked with me were very knowlegable of the PR situation. They themself after a while comunicated me to tier 2 staff and these guys are the ones on the controls making the changes. Actualy the guy at tier 2 made the changes and at the same time while I was watching my guide the channels became authorized. The changes were made immediately. I have the number I called at home. I'll be home after 6pm please pm me or send me an email at wrdi1971@hotmail.com and I will give you the number.
 
on my acocunt it just appears as [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]AK/HI/PR/VI HD PAK instead of HD enabled, HD pack as you
all dish is telling me is to wait until august 1
and if for any reason I dont get it I can cancel the package with the downgrade fee waived
