    After spending HOURS on the phone tonight with Direct and Costco, someone at Costco (took me 4 transfers to get this guy) said he gets 4-5 calls a week about the DirectTV/Costco. He said the Giftcard if through Direct, and you need to email costcovipsupport@directv.com and provide them with...

    Questions from a Dish Customer thinking about going to Direct.

    The problem is Direct is offering a pretty good deal that ends on March 14th: Directv new customer only sign up deal 2 years of savings - Slickdeals.net From what I am reading, the Hopper/Joey system seems inferior to the Directs 5 Tuner DVR. If I switch to Direct, I can get more channels for...

    Questions from a Dish Customer thinking about going to Direct.

    Thanks everyone for the replies. I am not a big sports fan, so that benefit does not really weigh in for me. All the channels that are important to me (Locals, USA, FX, TNT, AMC, ect) are in HD on Direct, so for me its the new equipment, and the whole house DVR. I know Dish is coming out with...

    Questions from a Dish Customer thinking about going to Direct.

    Thanks Raoul for the reply. Programming for me is pretty much a wash between the two, but DirectTV does carry my local CW in HD where Dish only carries it in SD.

    BBC Radio 1 Being Removed from SIRIUS/XM

    I am done with my XM sub, BBC Radio was one of my favorite stations, loved the news, music choice, and their morning talk show. I know I can listen to it on the web, but I wanted it in my car while I was driving. I am calling to cancel my sub today.

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    I too have had Dish for a long time, since 1999 and have been really happy with the service. But recently I have not been happy with the customer service, and their pricing model. This FX issue has put me over the edge. I pay Dish over $100 a month for two 722 HD receivers and when I can not...

    $50 Dish Grounding Inspection Fee passed by Omaha, Ne

    So I emailed all 4 City Council members who voted for this, and just stated they should be ashamed for passing this, and I wanted to know why this did not apply to cable. I did not use any profanities. 2 have sent me very kind emails, but I want to post my response from Garry Gernandt...
