Great to hear people are receiving their orders. Thanks for the update digitalelegance and cr0mag! I know my wife is going to love her present from me for a change. :D

Wow, what an awesome deal! I certainly hope this comes thru, as I wanted to get a Skyfi 2 for my wife who commutes 3 hours a day. This saved me a ton o' money, thanks for the info! I got a confirmation number--here's hoping it actually ships! :D

Last time my 522 connected was 9/24, so I checked my bill. Sure enough, I'm being charged the extra receiver fee as well. Grrrrr . . . . :mad:

Send an email to the ceo email address, be polite but firm, and cross your fingers. I got a 522 from them, but I've been a customer for 6+ years and had one of the original dvrs that was finally failing. I had failed on more than one occasion to call and get a 522. I read here about the ceo...

I'm not sure if they'll replace your 510, but an email wouldn't hurt. Perhaps my situation is different. I've been with the company a long time, and had W-A-Y outdated hardware. Maybe they don't believe owners of a 510 need to upgrade? Dunno. I'd certainly write them a polite email and give...

Hi Clorox, I live just north of Houston in Conroe, and have had Dish for the past 6+ years. My reception only goes out approx 2-3 times a year, only during a severe thunderstorm, and only for a few minutes. In addition, the quality of picture is MUCH better than cable--at least in the...

I'm sure other folks probably know by now, but it IS possible for an existing customer to get their hands on a 522. I read (elsewhere) about emailing ceo@dishnetwork.com and decided to give that a shot. I wrote them a polite, calm email--explaining that I'd been a customer for 6+ years...

I'm curious about the above post, as it mirrored my own thoughts. I've only had my 522 since Sunday (8/29) and it has run flawlessly . . . until a few minutes ago. I was watching a recorded show, then tried to skip ahead to the "next week's preview", when I experienced the well-known color...
