I received the rebate from Costco in less than a week after my install. It came in the mail as a Costco gift card. I was amazed that it came as fast as it did.

I too am a former Dish subscriber. I had absolutely no issues with Dish except for the fact that I could not watch any of my local teams. No Devils, Rangers, Islanders, Knicks, Nets, Yankees or Mets! When they did carry SNY sometimes the Met games would be in HD and sometimes not. I was...

When I was a Dish subcriber, I also subcribed to NHL Center Ice. Almost all of the games would be broadcast in HD. Yet on Dish only 2 or 3 games a night would be carried in HD. This issue would drive me nuts. I was paying for a premium service yet only receiving 2 or 3 games in HD. This...

Sorry for posting in the wrong forum. No one from Dish has bothered me. I understand that they hope that you change your mind and reconnect but after 6 weeks I felt I better ask. I will send the Dish rep a PM with my account info. Thanks!

This question is for anyone who cancelled Dish Network. How long did it take before Dish sent you the return labels for their boxes? I still have not received the labels and it is over 6 weeks since I cancelled. I know they are probably swamped with cancellations in my area...

Ain't that the truth! I had NHL Center Ice when I was with Dish and they would only broadcast 20%-30% of the games in HD. It used to drive me nuts because I knew that the HD feeds were available. Never mind the fact that I could not watch any of my local teams...Rangers, Devils or Islanders...

I also switched to Direct from Dish 3 weeks ago having been a Dish customer for over 5 years. My reason for leaving was like yours in that Dish would not or could not provide me with my local sports teams' channels. In the NYC area they were not even in SD. I agree with most of what you say...

The Costco deal is good till the end of July. I had Direct TV installed three weeks ago and I had the $180.00 gift card in less than a week!

I'm glad I have resisted the urge to subscribe to MLBEI. Seems like every day this is an issue, someone not getting what they paid for. I don't need the aggrevation of having to call and talking to 3 or 4 CSRs before you get to the right person.

You're probably over qualified to become an installer. When I had my Direct TV installed last week the installer did not read my work order and had no idea that I was supposed to receive MRV. When I pointed this out to him, he told me that inorder to have MRV service my box had to be hard...

When I cancelled last week they tried to offer me all kinds of incentives....free HD for life, $10.00 a month off the subscription cost etc. When I explained to the CSR that what I wanted (MSG, YES, SNY) Dish could not offer me, she became silent and said they would send me the labels to return...

If I were a betting man I would not bet that Dish will come to any agreement with SNY. SNY will go the way of MSG on Dish. Anyone who lives in the NY area, and is any kind of sports fan, should seriously consider alternative providers.

They are already shown on my first bill. Thanks!

Thanks! Would have switched sides long ago if it wasn't for the contract with Dish. I was an NHL Center Ice subscriber on Dish and that was a real crap shoot as far as HD went. If there were 10 games a night only 2 or 3 would be in HD. Watched the Yankees and Mets in HD this afternoon. Even...

I had Direct TV installed this past Sunday. I ordered the Direct TV service through Costco in order to receive a $180.00 Costco gift card. I was told that I would have to wait 6 to 8 weeks for the card. Well the card was delivered today! Less than one week since my install. Direct had sent...
