    Call Directv and let them know you are experiencing issues with that channel and it is happening on all of your TV's they should escalate it to their engineering department. I used to have the same problems with Animal Planet HD that is how I got it fixed when I started to have issues with that...

    I Think I'm Ready for DirecTV

    1. It only goes out about 5 to 10 minutes during a severe thunderstorm or heavy rain. But that rarely happens where I live at. 2. You do not need a whole home DVR on every tv. You only need one DVR or you can get more if you want. All you need is HD Boxs to watch the recordings off of your DVR's...

    DIRECTV Announces Second Quarter Results

    It must be something Directv is doing becuase that is an awfuly high subscriber loss. My guess would be either bad customer service and or programming choices. Those are the two big things that can make people stay or switch to another TV Provider. 52K is a big loss.

I also heard Time Warner Cable also posted loses...

    HR22 software update hangs

    Correct me if I am wrong. But would it not be cheaper to just add the Directv Protection Plan and schedule a service call to have to dish realigned and also possibly replace the reciever. I hear that Directv will replace a reciever if you do not have the protection plan but I heard they will...

    Time Warner vs Directv

    The only way really to save any money with Time Warner Cable service is to bundle all three services. Which is Digital Phone, High Speed Internet, and TV Service. If you do not get all three then satellite is going to be the cheapest.

    So, I'm trying to find a loophole...

    Unfortunately their is no way to get around this. Your appartment complex has made a deal with an MDU company that installs DIRECTV. All I can recommend is to file a complaint with DIRECTV about that company and also file a complaint with your landlord / apartment association about the company...
