Sweet! I didn’t realize that. Got any answers to this monstrosity of a power adapter for that little power inserter?

A few things I have feedback on now that I’ve had my new equipment for a day. 1- I don’t like that they removed the page up/down from the remote. It was so much easier to scroll through the guide than having to keeping clicking one channel at a time. 2- The tech installed a power inserter...

Got my new equipment today, upgraded from hopper with sling and Joey to hopper 3 and 4K Joey. No install cost. New 2 year commitment brought my pricing back down. My dish tech was awesome, the most professional, knowledgeable and courteous tech they’ve ever sent in the last 20 years that I’ve...

Gotcha. Didn’t realize that’s what it was called. Next question - will the monthly fees for the hopper or Joey increase when I upgrade from hopper with sling to hopper 3? Currently I think I pay $12/month now for locals and same for dvr fee. I thought I read that hopper 3 dvr fee was...

that sounds a lot how my conversation went and I plan to call them back and move forward...what do you mean by "I did the IVR recording"

ok, how much of a process is that going to be and what's the transfer rate/speed? is this process fairly straightforward and not cumbersome? any specific type of drive, enclosure, connection I should be getting?

so....called dish and they offered to do another 2 year lock to help get my pricing back to within $5/month of what it used to be before my price lock expired...they also offered to give me a one time credit to offsite the big different in price that happened this month (which I thought was very...

ok, guess I'll just give them a call and see what options they offer...was hoping someone would know the current existing customer offerings so when I called I would know if they were telling me correctly or not. i have a hopper w/ sling that I've had for several years now, got it at the same...

I live in an area that doesn't get much OTA. I was hoping not to change packages but was hoping more to get a better promo/discount on the current package, something more in line with what I was paying previously.

hey folks, I'm a long time Dish customer and my recent monthly bill just shot way up...i'm not a big TV watcher so I only have AT120+ and I have (1) hopper and (1) joey. I think i was previously getting a monthly discount deal because of a 2 year commitment but that must have went away and now...

Well I went ahead and got the HWS + Joey installed a few hours ago. Once the tech left I read up on the CES dish announcement, after reading that the H3 upgrade would have been free now I feel sick knowing that I just upgraded. Would the H3 upgrade really be free for existing customers in good...

Thanks for all of the input everyone, appreciate it. Considering the new hopper will prob not be a free upgrade and considering I'm not interested in getting a receiver that will output 4K at this time (there will really be extremely little true 4K content available anyway) I believe I'm going...

ive got a 622 and a 211, was in the process of working with dirt to do a HWS + Joey upgrade to replace my 622 + 211. I was wanting to complete the upgrade prior to 1/14 to avoid the increase in dvr fee from 12 to 15 for hopper installs after 1/14. I was all ready to schedule the install when...

thanks for all of the input everyone, appreciate it like always. while i do not currently use the backfeed feature on my 622, my parents do on 2-3 different TVs in their home. I currently run HDMI and COMPONENT (over a 100' attic run) both from my 622 (yes, have to watch same channel but not a...

True. But many customers still have those older TV's and use that backfeed signal to avoid having to pay for another receiver. I understand the logic, but thought it would be nice if that feature still existed... thanks for the input, appreciate it guys
