I am thinking seriously of dropping VZ and going back to *D. The only problem I ever had with *d was billing. They sent a bill in the mail for years and when I didn't get one in the mail. I woke up and found my direct tv connection no longer worked. I signed on to the *D website and saw that my...

I left Direct for Verizon but Direct is starting to appeal to me again. Don't like the guide or remote or the dvr. Tried to get a new remote for the new guide and called and talked to 7 different csr's and was unable to get a new remote. I even offered to pay for it. I have to say that is fairly...

When I go to any hd channel I get audio but no video immediately. Most of the time up to 15-20 seconds before the video comes on. Any thoughts as to why...

I'm going to let the dust settle. Not make any two year commitments until I see what Direct is going to offer HD wise. If I don't have a good feeling about what I see going on at that time. I will possibly make a change. I hope that Verizon will have their thing going and I will take a long...

I have Samsung 160 and have had numerous audio sync problems of late and all of the complaints I am having are on FOX only. I have to go to my locals to get the audio to work. No other network but FOX.

I wouldn't look for any new additions to HD until the new sat's are up and running. I gave up on rumors after listening to Charlie and his bunch for a couple of years of things to come. Unless it's a PR from direct I would not put any trust on rumor this or rumor that. It will happen but only...

When I was a Dish customer and visited the different Dish forums and saw the rumors flying around and all the negative comments made about Dish. I never saw these type of comments being made by Direct customers until recently.

Direct is starting to sound a lot like Charlie and the rumors that was consuming Dish when I was there. Is this a sign that there is a lot of former Dish customer now with Direct. We'll have to ask Direct to start having a Monday night chat with Rupert if this keeps up.

Value Electronics About a year and 1/2 ago I switched from Dish to Direct. I am glad I did it and have never looked back. Bite Me Charlie. I found VE information in some forum and concluded they would be the one that I would use. From the first call I made to the day they delivered the...
