    Time limit to install new Dish service?

    The installation is still scheduled tomorrow Sunday afternoon. I'll just let the installer come as everyone advised and see what happens. I don't want to lose the old HD promo, since it is a much better deal than the current promo!

    Time limit to install new Dish service?

    I ordered through Dishstore and I remember Claude saying within 30 days for some reason. Dish Network CSR says no limit. So I'm not sure. I'm just worried about installation during a storm may affect the quality of the outdoor portion of the installation.

    I ordered new customer Dish service in end of January under the previous HD DVR advantage deal. My installation is scheduled tomorrow but there is a severe storm in the SF Bay Area so I want to reschedule.

    New Dish Installation Questions

    On monoprice.com the cost of 50ft HDMI is also around $50, the same as 50ft RG-6 component cable. Which is better for preserving signal quality? I guess one HDMI advantage is that it contains video and audio, so the one cable is thinner than running 5 component video and audio cables. If I go...

    New Dish Installation Questions

    I signed up 2 days ago with Claude of Dishstore (great experience) for new customer Dish service to be installed on Superbowl Sunday :) I have 3 HDTVs and 1 SDTV, with order for a 722 and a 222. I think the 222 will hook up to HDTV3 and SDTV4. For HDTV1 and HDTV2 they are in adjacent rooms...

    New subscriber order from Dish CSR vs. Retailer

    I am considering national retailer like Dishstore, rather than local. I know Dishstore uses the same DishNetwork installers, so no difference there. I'm more concerned about the other issues I asked, like future service requests, upgrades, etc.

    New subscriber order from Dish CSR vs. Retailer

    I am a new subscriber ordering Dish Network. I would like to know the pros and cons or ordering directly from Dish CSR vs. ordering through a Retailer like Dishstore. My understanding is that the promotions for new subscribers are the same, but if the order is placed through a retailer, then...

    International Services Moving to 118.7 Orbital Slot - DELAYED

    I am waiting to subcribe as a new customer, to HD metal pack, locals and Internationals on 118.75. Should I wait until 7/21 for the D1000+ so I will have one dish for everything and will the D1000+ be free as a new customer? Thanks.

    I need a Club Dish Referral number

    For new dish customers, the installation is $50 but the $50 is credited back with 18 month commitment. So what is the advantage of the clubdish? Is there additional $50 back, so you get free installation and make $50 as well?

    New Customer?

    You might be confusing two different HD receivers. The $199 is the 622 HD-DVR receiver. It is not free for new customers, still $199. The free receiver is the 211 HD receiver, without DVR.
