After spending HOURS on the phone tonight with Direct and Costco, someone at Costco (took me 4 transfers to get this guy) said he gets 4-5 calls a week about the DirectTV/Costco. He said the Giftcard if through Direct, and you need to email costcovipsupport@directv.com and provide them with...

Thanks Iceberg!

I am a Dish customer (Getting Direct this Saturday) and use this feature all the time. Does anyone know if you can do it with the Direct Receiver? Its nice to look at my entire week and see what shows are new and whats being recorded. Thanks

So I ordered DirectTV today, using this link: Costco.com: No One Offers Better HD Than DIRECTV so I could get the $120 Costco Gift card. But when I checked out, I do no show the giftcard anywhere. I called DirectTV and spoke to a CSR, she told me she did not see the Coscto Giftcard, but it...

WOW! Thank you very much!

Thanks Royrdsjr, I cant live with that :)

Dfergie, what do you mean you can only go 1.5 hours?

The problem is Direct is offering a pretty good deal that ends on March 14th: Directv new customer only sign up deal 2 years of savings - Slickdeals.net From what I am reading, the Hopper/Joey system seems inferior to the Directs 5 Tuner DVR. If I switch to Direct, I can get more channels for...

Thanks everyone for the replies. I am not a big sports fan, so that benefit does not really weigh in for me. All the channels that are important to me (Locals, USA, FX, TNT, AMC, ect) are in HD on Direct, so for me its the new equipment, and the whole house DVR. I know Dish is coming out with...

Thanks Raoul for the reply. Programming for me is pretty much a wash between the two, but DirectTV does carry my local CW in HD where Dish only carries it in SD.

Hello I have been with Dish since 2001 and have been pretty happy overall. I have 2 722 HD DVRs, one keeps dying and Dish keeps sending me a refurb unit. I am thinking about going to DirectTV and getting the Whole House DVR with 5 tuners, and 2 HD receivers so I can have 3 TVs connected...

I am done with my XM sub, BBC Radio was one of my favorite stations, loved the news, music choice, and their morning talk show. I know I can listen to it on the web, but I wanted it in my car while I was driving. I am calling to cancel my sub today.

I too have had Dish for a long time, since 1999 and have been really happy with the service. But recently I have not been happy with the customer service, and their pricing model. This FX issue has put me over the edge. I pay Dish over $100 a month for two 722 HD receivers and when I can not...

So I emailed all 4 City Council members who voted for this, and just stated they should be ashamed for passing this, and I wanted to know why this did not apply to cable. I did not use any profanities. 2 have sent me very kind emails, but I want to post my response from Garry Gernandt...

No Dish Tax

As a person who LIVES in Omaha, NE, this make me sick. Our City council screwed us, and took care of Cox Communication of the flip side. I can see the local Cox commercials now: "We may suck compared to Dish, but we do not have a $50 inspection fee!" I emailed all 4 city council men last...

I am also from Omaha, and pissed at Dish as well over the Omaha HD locals. Dish has published on their website that Omaha would see HD locals in June of this year. Well here it is mid August and no Omaha HD locals, and Dish can not provide me with a date as when I might see them. I really like...

I just upgraded from 2 PVR 508s to 1 625. I love the 625, I can record two shows at once. I guess I got screwed as I paid $79 to upgrade.

I think a tutorial would be a great idea. Alot of people now are just using cell phone and no longer have a need for a LAN line. I was not even able to get Direct TV due to the fact they require they HD Tivo to be hooked up to a phone line. I was looking at getting Sunrocket, but I really dont...

That would be awesome if you could put a tutorial on how to accomplis this. I am paying Dish $5 per month for no home phone (cell phone housesold) and would live to beat this fee! Thanks Jason

Thanks for the tip on the Free VoIP!

Thats what I want to do! What do I need to be able to accomplis this? Just regular splitters?

Thanks for the fast reply. I want to run my new 522 in 3 room, and I have 2 DVR508 remotes. Is there any way to get them to work so I can use them UHF to control my 522?

I am getting a new 522 tomorrow, will my old DVR 508 remotes work on the new 522? Thanks Jason

I have am going to put my new Dual Tuner DVR in the basement when it get installed on Sat. Using a splitter and a diapler, can I feed the 2nd tuner to 2 other TVs?
