Im in Sac and Im having the same issue. Trying to call DTV but have been waiting on hold for 18 minutes and havent talked to anyone yet.

I have an equipment question. I switched to DTV from Dish in June and I got the HR-24 receiver in my living room but just an HD receiver (H25-500) in my bedroom. I have no issues with the HR-24 but the H-25 has a lot of issues when I try to watch DVRd shows. It often freezes for several...

Checked my email this morning and found this from DTV. I havent called them once since I switched over a month ago so this was a surprise. I knew I was getting ST for free when I switched but the max was going to be extra so I didnt get it. "Dear XXX, As a valued DIRECTV...

Well I have a 3 year old so we watched several of those channels quite often.

Sounds like par for the course to me. I haven't found good customer service with any tv provider. They are great when you start up but terrible once you become an existing customer. Dish, DTV, Comcast are all basically the same in my experience.

I have no interest in 3D TV. I hate the 3D glasses and 3D effects. I am more than happy with just having standard HD. I hope 3D doesn't take off like HD did.

They do have the free ST for new customers for this season. I just switched to DTV a week ago with that offer.

Yes I was in your boat a few years ago when I first had DTV. I bought an HD TV and decided it was finally time to upgrade to an HD receiver. I saw all the new customer deals of free HD upgrade and all that and I was out of contract so I called them up and tried to get the upgrade and the best I...

I slightly prefer DTV as far as programming only because they have more sports that I like but otherwise they are the same to me as Dish. Both are the same as far as quality and customer service (I'm on my second stint with DTV now after 2+ years with Dish. I just switched from Dish last weekend...

I prefer 2 D over 3 D almost every time. 3d just isn't very good most of the time. Not only does 2D cost less but it's usually better quality picture IMO.

Yea looks like its whole. Last time I had DTV and canceled they never asked for the dish back either. It got thrown away. But I didn't have HD then which was one of the reasons I switched back then.

Sorry I don't know what an LNB is?

I just had DTV installed yesterday and all I did was remove the dish eqiuipment out of the way and move the furniture by the tv away from the wall. My TVs are wall mounted and do not move away from the wall but since everything was already hooked up it didn't matter. Installer just had to...

I just had DTV installed yesterday after canceling Dish. They asked me when I called if I could reach the dish without a ladder. It's on my roof so I can't get it without a ladder so they told me don't worry about it. All they want me to return is the receivers and remotes. The DTV installer...

I'm switching next weekend (earliest available appointment ). Called today to cancel Dish and let em know part of the reason was they were dropping AMC. Other part was I save money for a while with DTV and when that ends I can always switch back and get the Dish new customer perks again.
