Are all the taxes and government surcharges considered "junk fees?" Adds $6.11 to my bill.

Scott were you using VPN or didn't need one? I never use a VPN, I have Norton VPN because I use their internet security and it comes with it. I hear commercials all the time for different VPN's. So I must have just done it wrong. I think some people use it all the time, but the few times I...

Hmmm...I tried using Dish Anywhere to watch NFL playoffs last year while in Dominican Republic at a wedding. Could not connect even with Norton VPN enabled.

One word: Wife!!

I called the number that Clark Gable provided. The Colorado based CSR went through my options for programming changes (from 250) and turns out there isn't a way to save money lowering packages and doing addons to get all the channels we watch. I was offered $10 off a month for 24 months and I...

There's a first!!

After a day of use I am pleased so far, but think there still needs a little more tweaking. The navigation was just a little clunky at times jumping back 45 minutes instead of forward to the next chapter stop or instead of 15 seconds for instance. It didn't do that all the time, but did happen...

FINALLY!!! I had just about given up. I saw the update in the app store this morning and the notes right under it said 15 second skip is back. I had to see it to believe it. I wondered if something was coming because yesterday it seemed like the times and chapters were constantly off from...

So if I just go to the price lock on My Dish and agree to the 2 year price lock and submit, I get two years without an increase, but if I call in I could get a 2 year discount plus price lock? The only choices I have under my offers are My Gift Cards, Shop for internet and Price Lock.

I noticed my Fox was back on yesterday. Have been watching it OTA for almost a year now. Had actually given up on it.

I'm starting to lose my hearing and if I am listening and miss something for whatever reason, some other noise or something, I can't go back 15 seconds and listen over. That is really painful that you now have to go back a full chapter stop and re-listen sometimes 4 to 10 minutes to get back to...

So then there would be no more cancelling to try to get another promo rate? Be careful what you wish for.

Found this link on a Reddit thread about the new app. The video shows the 15 second back and forward arrows in the new app, but they are NOT there. Some say the audio quality is much improved, but that wasn't a sticking point with me. User interface is the biggest thing for me...

It's ridiculous!! I've been using the app most days the last several years and now it's just ruined. Reddit forums are awash with complaints and many reporting that they are leaving app reviews which are being deleted. Have not confirmed that. I left a review on Thursday at the App Store...

First impressions... um, worst app update in the history of app updates. They wrecked it. New interface is awful, favorites are buried in the menus and the skip forward and reverse 15 seconds buttons have been replaced with a rewind one hour button. Someone, or the whole team if it was a...
