    Dish upselling to AT250

    Unfortunately, a certain person in this household feels compelled to answer the phone even when she doesn't recognize the number, and then hands the phone to me, claiming she can't understand what they're talking about. (English is her second language.) :mad:

    Dish upselling to AT250

    Yesterday, someone from Dish called, trying to get us to upgrade from AT200 to AT250. The person tried to make it sound like we'd be getting a special deal that would only cost $10 more a month (never mind that that's the regular price difference between the two packages). Anyway, the thing is...

    HELP: Dish Remote Access downloaded on iTunes will not install to iPad

    What version of iOS are you running on your iPad? I'm guessing you're still using 3.something, which is what shipped on the original iPad. That might explain why Dish Remote Access stopped working for you. For some reason, when Dish updated the app back in November, the company also made changes...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    Yeah, same here. The $9 credit still doesn't show up on the programming page, but it appeared on the bill.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    That's exactly what I did this morning, and I found out that my credit was $10 for 12 months. Yup, we've used AutoPay for years. I did manage to get Starz for free. I started a chat to find out why we weren't getting the RSNs, and with no prompting, the CSR offered me Starz free for 12...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    No, when you click submit on the first screen, it brings up a page showing what you're ordering and the cost including any credits. You have to click on "submit" on this second page for it to actually take effect.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    That's good to know. When I asked about this during a chat, the rep first claimed I'd get every single Fox sports channel. Then he backtracked and said I wouldn't get any. And then he got disconnected. It definitely isn't the same for everyone. I'm only getting a $10 monthly credit.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    Same here. I won't really miss not having something I didn't have before, but it does seem like Dish is saying it doesn't care about my business. I mean, I've been a good customer of theirs for several years. Does it really make a difference that I didn't change my programming a few days...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    No, not at all. When I got the letter, I came here to see what others were planning to do. It seemed like no one at Dish seemed to know what was going on. People who did call in were commonly told to wait until 2/1, allow the automatic switchover to happen, and see then what the credit would...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I checked our receiver this morning, and some time last night, the programming updated from AbHD to AT200. No free Starz or Encore, though.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    My account was converted to AT200 as well, but the receiver hasn't caught up yet. It looks like local stations are included now. There's no separate $6 charge, and the option is checked and greyed out on the web site. I dropped the service plan, so the net increase for us is going to be $8 a...
