    Dish Network Going Out During Storms...

    Rain fade I have subscribed to D*, Voom and E* over the years, and not one provider's service has managed not to fade during a storming day in my area of Florida. I subscribe to E* - and basic cable for this very reason. :(

    Dish Network Billing Department.
