    BET HD is on now.. channel 124

    Thanks every one who posted what to do, so I could get BET in HD. Chatted with a Tech CSR. It took about 15 minutes total and now I am watching HD version of BET. I gave the guy some info from my receiver, then he had me to tune to channel 101, and he sent another re-authorization signal. It...

    hbo starz free w/ no 24 month commitment

    Went on the website and used the chat and just got the HBO/Starz for 3 months FREE! with no commitment of any kind. I marked my calendar and he said to call and cancel so that I won't be charged after 3 months are up. Heck, if they want to give me 3 months for free, it would have been silly...

    DISH and ABC HD

    Just got NBC in HD today. I now have FOX, CBS, and now NBC in HD out of Chattanooga TN. I just wonder what the hold-up is with ABC (WTVC channel 9)? Is there some sort of squabble between DISH and the station? My Dad lives in Alabama and I noticed DISH has the same 3 locals out of Huntsville...

    Local sd channels volume

    I get my locals out of Chattanooga Tennessee. For the past two days, NBC sd channel 3, and ABC sd channel 9, the volume is very low. Most of the time I set my tv volume around 20 to 25, now on these two channels I have to set it on 45 to 50, and it's still not very loud. CBS sd is also low...

    Chattanooga TN FOX HD Local

    For two days now, my FOX HD channel has been missing. When you go to the channel, there is a blank screen. I can still get the SD version. I haven't called DISH because most of the time you can't get an accurate answer. So, any other subscribers out there who get their HD locals from...

    Dish promotions?

    I have been with DISH since last December. I was with Charter cable before, and I couldn't stand it. A lot more satisfied with the satellite. But one thing Charter did that I actually benefitted from was this, they would give me a promotion price, any where from 3 months to 12 months, that saved...

    ESPN Gameplan 2008

    I purchased the full season of Gameplan because I love college football. I hope everything goes smoothly, because I used to be with Charter and I had a bad experience last year. It was their first year carrying gameplan here in Georgia. Several of the games didn't even come on the opening...

    Another HD locals question...

    For what's it worth, I contacted DISH again about Chattanooga, TN locals only having 2 of the big 4 in HD. I pointed out how their competition was one step ahead of them because Directv launched all of the locals in HD yesterday. I told the CSR that DISH needed to get with the program. He said...

    LOCALS IN HD

    I recently upgraded to HD and have been fairly pleased so far. When DISH started advertising HD locals for my area, I called and told DISH to add them. For some reason only two channels are available in HD at the present time. I can't get DISH reps to give me a definitve answer as to why this...

    A couple of DVR questions?

    I still have history showing up in my daily schedule from over a month ago. It has not deleted itself. I just don't get it. To the previous poster, that is good news that I can record a HD program on TV2, then watch it back on TV1 in HD. But, can I watch and record HD programs on TV1, my...

    A couple of DVR questions?

    When you go into your daily schedule to look at your history detail, which provides info for an individual timer which is currently recording or has been recorded, skipped, deleted or stopped. Why is it that this info cannot be deleted? I called DISH and the CSR told me that over time this...

    HD locals for Chattanooga, TN

    I contacted ABC local in Chattanooga and got a response today from the General Manager. He claims the reason DISH is not showing ABC in HD is because they were told by the satellite companies that receiving station upgrades were being made, and he offered no knowledge of any timeframe this would...

    Cinemax 1 cent per year special

    Sorry, I am new to this forum and I know someone else posted this a long time ago, but DISH customers who have autopay AND paperless billing can still call and sign up for the CINEMAX 1 cent per year special. From what I have read on the internet, this special has been going on since the first...

    ESPN Gameplan 2008

    In 2007, I was with Charter Communications with tv and internet. I purchased ESPN Gameplan and boy was it all messed up. I live in Georgia, but I root for the University of Alabama. Their 1st game last season never did come on. Charter said they got the problem fixed the following week, but I...
