That blows. You shouldnt have to pay a monthly fee for something like that. I wonder why nobody has figured out a way to "h-word" tivos yet?

I have an H20 receiver and Im thinking of buying a tivo with a lifetime subscription off of ebay. Will I be able to hook it up to my H20 so I can record my satellite and local channels? Also, I know this is probably a reach but if so would it record in HD?

Im a Chiefs fan too but if CP doesnt get someone to help Allen pressure the QB and a replacement for Warfield, Thanksgiving may be ruined. :(

But I thought that it would eventually leak? :rolleyes: The point is, when I decide to sell my home and the potential buyer has it inspected the more holes in my roof = the more chances of leaks and the buyer will more than likely want it fixed before he buys. Im not going to just say "Thats...

Well there you go. Next time a customer bitches to you about having to pay $100 for a pole mount explain to them that you are basically self-employed and only get payed by the job. I had no idea until the QC guy told me that my original tech didnt actually work for directv and only got paid by...

No I got on my roof to take pictures of my extra unneeded mount because I needed them to file a claim and noticed the debris in my gutter. Are you able to read and store information in your brain for more than a few hours? If you did you would see that I DID NOT NEED A POLE anyways so its not...

Directv is crediting my bill for the amount I paid for my OTA antenna, so they arent exactly "paying me" anything but its good enough for me. As far as the roof goes, I dont know yet if the contractor will pay or not but D* will if they dont. Even if Directv doesnt send me a check and credits my...

Got an email from D* today and thought some of you people doubting that I would get reimbursed should read it. Dear Mr. *****, Thank you for writing. I'm sorry to hear that you had such an unfortunate experience with the installation of your new DIRECTV services. I want to assure you that...

He said a pole mount was $75. It would have been about 20 feet from my house but he wanted to charge me. He said he charged that much because it had to trench the wire, pour the cement and wait 4 hours for it to dry before he could put the dish up. Then when I finally agreed to pay he said he...

So basically, the ONLY thing the insurance covers is dish alignment and if the receiver goes out? I noticed it says that it covers damage due to a power surge but not acts of God. So if lightning strikes my dish and burns up my receiver Im screwed?

Since I pay for the insurance, what if my roof leaks from my dish? I know they wont cover the damage done to my house (if any), but will they send somebody out to re-seal the bolts at no charge?

Well I was told I didnt have a choice. The first tech said that he didnt think he could get a line of site from a pole-mount, and he also said the only other possibility was a roof install. When I had dish network, they put the dish up on the eave of my house with a metal bracket. The D* tech...

Okay, give me one good reason I shouldnt have signed off on it given the circumstances. Did you read my story on what happened in the other thread? I had the installer at my house AND a lady from D* on the phone telling me the KA KU couldnt be installed on the roof. The lady from D* said she...

I dont know yet, Ive only been a customer for a month. :p

He did a good job as far as I could tell, he didnt damage my home. If the QC guy wouldnt have told me he lied about the 5LNB, I would have never known and I would still have my 3lnb up today. So its not a matter of poor workmanship (besides the bad ground) its about an untruthful installer and...
