Hello all, I've been with DirecTV traditional satellite service since 2011. I moved about 14 months ago to a home that includes cable in the monthly HOA. I put the service on suspension and then re-suspended it again to make it over a year. My account has grandfathered offerings such as HD...

Anyone know how to bypass this screen to access the live feed on tuner 1 or 2 for an HR24?

Has anyone tried to bundle AT&T DSL with DirecTV recently? Some of my promos are starting to end on my bill and I'm ready to give it a shot again. The problem I was running into was the fact that AT&T want to take over the entire billing procedure and all customer service. I just want to see...

My power will go out for about 5-10 seconds at least once per week, sometimes several times a week. After this happens, my HR24 and H24 restart and then remain on. Is there a way to get into the service menu and tell them to turn off after they restart from a power outage? If I'm not home they...

Is there a way to test receivers without an access card? I just bought 2 receivers (yes they are owned, not leased) and I may be reselling one and activating the other. I need to make sure they both work, but I don't want to buy a card because I don't know which one I'm going to keep yet. Are...

...it is over $100. I don't have online statements and I don't want them, so there is no way to view my upcoming bill. Does that mean that I owe D* money of they owe me money (credit)? Someone may have signed up using RAF and I got money or there may be a fairly large billing error. I...

Where are they? I watch quite a bit on both channels and I would like the HD feed. My old small town cable system even had E! HD. What is taking so long for D* to add them?

When I'm watching The Weather Channel HD and local on the 8's comes up, the local slideshow forecast doesn't insert every time. I just see the national forecast. It comes on maybe once an hour at random. On the SD channel, it comes on every time. Is this normal?

What is the best possible readings one could hope for an SL3 slimline SWM system with a clear satellite view? Is 92-100 (mode average 95-97) on all transponders really good? Can it get any better or is the best it gets?

I'm looking at E* because I can't get D* due to LOS issues. 1.) who is the HSP for Florida? I want someone to come out and do a site survey. 2.) what type of promos are available that are not posted on the E* website? I could have gotten the AAA $200 discount and $100 referral discount...

I see that there is a limit of 10 per 12 month period allowed. Would it be possible to get all 10 and save $1000 and/or not have a bill for the entire year, plus have a running credit into the next year? Would I still have to pay all the taxes or are the taxes based on the bill total after...

...at the main splitter outside (condo) and connect a SWM slimline to my unit? My unit is all home run and all the existing cabling can be used for D*. I can't drill any holes in the wall, so its either use the existing cable tap or run a line in the window and up the stairs (ugly). I own the...

Due to the fact that AT&T didn't anticipate the need for DSL service in the area, and all available lines to the node are taken, I might have to get cable HSI if someone doesn't cancel their DSL service soon. AT&T is saying that the node is capped or reached capacity. No more connections are...

I wanted D*. They came out today and said no-go because eves are blocking satellite signal. I live in South FL and I'm in a condo. I can only install on screened-in balcony. I watched the installer test the slimline dish with a meter and he couldn't get a signal worth using. The eves of the roof...

A non penetrating roof mount if I live in a condo and I can only install on a balcony? Is this something I can request on the work order or is it something I must provide? If they have them, how much do they cost and do they include cinder blocks? I'm in S. FL if that makes a difference. Will...

If I sign up for D* under the 24th month agreement and take all the promos to get 1 HD DVR and 1 HD receiver whole house DVR HD access free for life choice extra package can I change my programming package or drop one receiver and turn off whole house DVR during the 24 months and not get...

I'm moving to the Ft. Lauderdale area shortly and I wanted to know how bad rain fade is with the slimline dish in the general S. FL area with a correctly aligned slimline? Also who is the installer in the area? Mastec? What slimline version are they installing and what HD DVR (not multi-room)...

...suspend the service for 4 months (while there is no use for it because the sub isn't even home), then re-activate for another 8 and then repeat the process again to fullfill the 24 month contract? Does D* care if you suspend service under contract or is the contract a 24 consecutive month...

They want to sign up, but they must have Travel Channel HD. They have TWC right now and have a fairly good line-up of HD channels, including Travel HD. Any idea on when we can expect this channel? It makes no sense that it is missing.

Do installers get discounts on DirecTV service or equipment? I've always wondered that.

...at my primary residence, which is in the Northeast. What happens when I turn on the receiver at the vacation house (assuming that I don't call D* and tell them that the receiver has moved)? Do I get a black screen on the local channels, an error screen, or the locals from the vacation's...

...at no extra cost because of the lease (like a cable company would do with newer boxes)? What happens if a current leased receiver dies? Does D* act like a cable company and swap out the current dead receiver at no charge? Also, does the current HD DVR have to be connected to an...

Is it possible to get E* without a contract for a new customer and rent all of the receivers/dish/ect...? What is the plan called? Thank to all who can help!

Can anyone from Florida tell me about rain fade issues with the Slimline (assuming its aligned correctly)? Does a severe rain storm or approaching thunderstorm knock out the signal or does the larger dish reflect the signal better and overcome the cloud cover? Thanks for your help in advance!

I have friend in Florida who is living in a leased house and he would like to switch from Comcast to D*. Would he be able to get a SWM Slimline dish/special splitters/rent of install free with sign up (no surcharge)? The house is wired for Comcast now and he can't run any more wires. He wants...
