    Qualify as a new customer?

    Actually, not exactly new even after you've left 4-5 years. They cannot allow you to sign up without commitment. If you had dish many years ago and you wanted them again, they insist on 18-months minimum. For true new customer, they will allow you to sign up without commitment and you pay...

    Skype to dial out?

    How do you make PC Skype to work? Doesn't Skype requires you to have a PC on all the time? Is there a phone adapter only for Skype that connects straight to router/hub without PC being on?

    Should I Wait till 8/15

    nyvram: I think your package is $42.99 for AT200 + HD not $41.99 isn't it? Is this the same as the DVR advantage deal bundled in?

    Should I Wait till 8/15

    HUh? Wife cell number?? But, they need a SSN and that's unique and that's how they tag you as an ex-customer and the deal usually not as good as brand new.

    Should I Wait till 8/15

    nyvram: That's good idea (set install date to Aug 16th)! Is there an option for returning dish customer (more than 3 years) NOT to commit 18-months at all?

    **Should I return to DISH?? LOTS of questions!! Please help!!**

    Ok.. my error reading into this. Regardless for AngryStamen, for his question (2), I believe he can't opt out for NOT committing. Since he's returning customer, he has to commit 18 months in other to get same deal like new customer.

    **Should I return to DISH?? LOTS of questions!! Please help!!**

    Wait a minute.. if you are returning customer (even after 6 months), they won't let you go with No Commitment - There is a MANDATORY 18 months commitment to get the free receiver (actually leased). Dish Store says this on their web site. Only new customer 1st time customer can get that deal.

    no commitment

    Anyone knows if 'no commitment' applies previous Dish customer or must-be New Customers only? My sister been getting direct flyers from Dish Network asking her to return with up to $270.00 if she sub to Dish HD with the appropriate package BUT there is a 18-month commitment. Also, if you...

    Dish Network customer service?!?

    I always wonder with all the modern technology in communication systems that Dish has built but how come Dish Network/EchoStar has such a poor communication system within their company?

    Never ending idiocracy at Dish

    Say.. how do they troubleshoot if they don't have hands-on experience with dish? Read from script only?

    Taking the HD plunge in Indianapolis

    Hmm... how can it be for free? Doesn't the local cable company charge extra for the local HD even though you have SD basic cable? I think you're require to use their HD receiver on their cable feed, correct?

    DishDVR Advantage

    18 months committment OR Credit Card autopay? So, if use credit card autopay, there is no 18 months commitment? Are you sure that one must select at least two premium or DishHD. They seems to advertise that you can have barebone DVR_Advantage with AT200 for pay only $49.95.

    DishDVR Advantage

    Lowest DishDVR Advantage Tier? Say.. for new customer, can one sub to AT100+HD (instead of AT200+HD) and still be part of this DishDVR Advantage to get a free 622 unit?

    How to get a promotional rate?

    I think that 39.99 is only for 10 months only for new customer. That is after they have done the mail-in rebate redemption too.
