    Simple question about movers

    Just need some text clarified. From the directv movers page: "Offer requires a program agreement of 12 months of any DIRECTV base programming package (priced at $29.99/mo. or above), or any international service bundle. Applicable use tax adjustment may apply on the retail value of...

    Just signed up for Dish. Can I cancel without getting an ETF?

    Instead of calling Dish, send a PM to maryb@Dish Network or any of the other DIRT members - they're way better at handling things like this.

    Is Sirius worth the money

    It's worth it to some people and not others. The best way is to use the trial and find stations you enjoy. I personally use ~4 of my 10 available presets as the 3 music channels work for majority of my listening and the traffic channel for my city is decent.

    About to renew

    Call em and tell them you want to cancel. When they ask why, just say the service is getting too expensive. I've gotten multiple offers from them ($25 for 5 months, 46 for 6 months) All depends on your CSR and if you don't like yours or they're being a pain, hang up and play csr roulette again.

    Any XM specials

    Just called to cancel as I was up for a renewal and got offered the 5 months for $25 deal. Declined that but then she offered a 2 month "reconsider" trial for 2 months free. Took her up on that one. Will call in 2 months and see where I'm at.

    What are you doing on Super Sunday?

    Your Thoughts on an 18 game NFL Schedule?

    I completely disagree. Philly Eagles stadium holds close to 70k with standing room and the season always sells out. Make it a neutral site game that's against a division rival (NY, DAL) and you could easily fill 100k seats. The new cowboys stadium seats 80k and expands to over 110k with...

    Adding Sirius XM to 2005 Grand Caravan

    I got one of these installed years ago and it's the best thing I have found. Direct Adapter I highly recommend having it professionally installed unless you are comfortable with removing your radio and running the wires behind everything. This wouldn't affect the nav or the dvd as its function...

    The EagleEye controller/adapter for PS3!

    I dont have one but after reading the reviews on amazon, I'll stick with my PC. The biggest issue I read is that when you move your mouse, it doesnt matter how fast or slow you moved it, the adapter only senses that you moved the mouse, not the speed. I remember they did a cross between ps3 and...

    Sirius Lifetime subscription?

    I called up last week about cancelling and was offered 5 months for $25 (plus royalty) Rep said I could call up at the end and renew the promo. 5 bucks a month for xm is awesome.

    Does DISH have a Rewards Credit Card like DTV?

    It used to be when you hit 2500 points, they automatically cut you a $25 gift cert to amazon. Now, you have to use the website or phone person to get the rewards but it's more than just amazon. 2500 points = $25 amazon gift card 5000 points = $50 cash or statement credit, $50 gift card to many...

    Sling Adapter Rebate Tracking!

    Got mine in the mail Saturday. Disappointed that there's no way to just extract the $99 into cash. So I did the next best thing, bought a $99 amazon gift card.
