    Why isn't FX in Top 60?

    We have FX, Speed and Sci-Fi in addition to a shipload of other channels we actually watch on expanded basic cable. Funny thing is it's $5 less than what we were paying with Dish 60. At last count we also only had about 3 home shopping channels.

    Terminated from DISH

    I had an employer try to sneak this up my arse. He came in one day with a new guy and told me to train him for the position I was working and nothing more and started to take off. I called him out on it right there asking him if I was training my replacement. He looked like a damn deer caught in...

    Terminated from DISH

    Bet you don't hear about this on the next Retail or Charlie Chat. But what the hell can you expect in a country that lets beer manufacturers tell employees what beer they can and cannot drink in public.

    Leaving Dish for Adelphia Cable

    We switched when we moved into our new place. The landlord has cable here for us already so we saw no real sense in paying the high price of Dish for the same picture quality. One thing for certain is we don't miss the pixle crap from overcompression. Bottom line is I have an extra $50 in my...

    Dish/Sinclair Dispute

    You've got several options... 1. Ball up and get those "free" ota channels and tell Sinclair to stick it. (not really free considering tax money runs them and you pay taxes.) 2. Tell Charlie to ball up and take the increase considering the overcompression he does to the channels in the...

    Dish/Sinclair Dispute

    Interesting concept. I wonder if I don't make my rent payments long enough and the landlord "refusee to" let me stay in the place and reports it on my credit record I can tell emm it ain't really my fault since they are the ones that "refused" me. The logic is simple, you pay the bill to keep...

    Dish/Sinclair Dispute

    If Dish doesn't pay the required amount that Sinclair requires then Dish will have to drop the channels from the lineup. So the reading that *E is dropping the channels will be correct because if he doesn't pay for them he will have no choice but to drop them or broadcast dead air. It's hell...

    I am jumping Ship!!

    One has to consider several things. Considering the size and attention this forum gets people realize Dish Network employees actually frequent the site. I would dare say they get information as to why some quit and their experience they would not otherwise get from CSR's. Second, potential...

    I am jumping Ship!!

    Our picture quality with Dish steadily declined from the day we signed up two and a half years ago. When we moved into the new place that came with free cable through Adelphia (soon to be Time Warner) I waited to see if the picture quality was better than Dish and it was. From what I've seen...

    Factual E* vs Adelphia HD/DVR comparison

    We're going to get Time Warner here in these parts. From what I've seen with channel lineup we'll get another 20 channels we don't presently recieve with Adelphia also. Then there is the increase in HD channels that'll be a bonus. I just hope the qualit holds up after everything is swapped over...

    If you had a choice:Satellite or Cable

    We dropped Dish cause we had cable for free and the picture quality was a hell of alot better than Dish. Folks can argue it all day long but event he wife that knows jack about electronics saw the increase in quality over Dish. This week they came out and finally said Time Warner and Comcast...

    Can anyone explain Video on Demand is?

    It's a ripoff at best. I had no problem at all recording a ppv on my 510 at some ungodly hour and watch it any time I wanted just like the rest of my dvr'd programs.

    What happened to Dish?

    One can only hope that sooner than later people will catch on to what Dish is selling and it isn't a sat service. More of a dry bend over service.
