    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I am simply saying that if regulation existed that encouraged a consumer driven free market, instead of a monopolized one that we have now we would not have these issues as much.

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I for one could care less about sports. I think a free market would resolve these issues. 1. Agreements between station a provider should never dictate what package the channels go in. 2. Customer should be able to pick programming by category, sports, family, kids, drama, action...

    Can anyone give me the phone number for Dish corporate??

    Assuming that is the issue it is really not worthy of escalation. No one can answer that question considering the channels are not even up linked. I wouldnt waste time calling or emailing they dont know.

    Retailer Chat Recap: July 9, 2009

    Dish just lost another Hd customer
