how can I tell what type of dish I have. It was installed 8/2009, I live in SW Ohio and have 2 HD boxes(612, 211).

vote with your feet. If someone isn't providing they service they ought to then fire 'em and move on.

I recently switched to Dish after 14 years with D* and price had nothing to do with it. Their product wasn't bad either. I guess they are always exceptions to the rule People are sensitive to the fact they don't want to feel like they are getting hosed and if they find out that someone else...

when my 2 year commitment started with D**august 2007) the early termination fee was 240. It has since increased. How does that effect me?

What is best offer to become a Dish customer? ... since I guess I am leaving Directv. What the best way to signup and get the best offer? Is it thru their site?

over the weekend. They started billing me for MLB EI which I had called to cancel in March but the CS rep told me it wasn't on my account(guess they were wrong). So I set an e-mail stating I wanted it taken off my account. They replied saying that they could not. I replied back saying I...

The EI package is load of crap anyway due to the complete arcane and idiotic blackout rules.
