I have a grandfathered package and always have to call in to change premium paks. Always start HBO when Entourage is on and drop it when its off. The website does not allow not allow me to do it. The last time I dropped HBO even had to go through two reps the first one transferred me to a...

I received them since they became available. Have TP readings in the 70's but will wait and see what happens when D-10 goes live. Did not lose the slide on 498 during yesterday's rain here though.

Noticed HD Access removed then added back to my account today (9-23) without any action on my part.

I don't have a problem with the 2year deal esp. after being with DirecTV for over 10 yrs. I just thought it was interesting that he would mention that there would be no comittment.

Called the regular number. Said I was interested in upgrading my HR10-250 for MPEG4 HD DVR. Chris who sounded like he was in Bangalor, always seemed to get Boise before, said receiver and dish would be totally free. Said I could have installed Sat, which I thought was pretty quick, I'm busy on...

Checked my account online got a sixty dollar customer satisfaction credit. Not the 120 the previous poster got but at least they responded to my E-mail

Installer tried birdwing version. Didn't pick up the NBC station. Came back with a squareshooter. Wasn't home the wife asked the installer what the cost would be. Said between 50-75 we would get a bill. Never did. Called company. They said don't worry, no charge. This was not Ironwood which, I...

I live about 30 miles from the Sacramento stations antennas and the square shooter the Directv installer put in works fine most of the time. The valley is flat but there are lots of tall trees which, I guess, could cause a problem but don't. Wasn't charged for the square shooter and you can't...

Great here in Sacramento - OTA and fine on KCBS satellite

I am thinking of eliminating my TS-360 and SD TiVo and replacing them with one HD TiVo with the price drops. I don't pay the monthly DVR fee since I paid the lifetime fee way back when. If I get the new unit will I still not pay the monthly fee? The last time I changed my DVR Directv said it was...
