    This is a horrible settlement. If others agree, please take the time to let judge Baer know that you think it sucks. From the FAQ: How do I tell the Court that I do not like the Settlement with Sirius XM? ANSWER: If you are a Class Member (and have not excluded yourself), you can object to...

    Former Dish Net / New Customers Read This

    I'm an ex-HD Absolute customer who just signed up for D* through the Costco program with install scheduled March 5 and have a few questions: - I saw no opportunity to order the AM21 or the theater kit... is this best handled via a call to the 800 # or email? or is there a better way to get...

    DIRECTV Exploit? $180 Costco cash + $100 Referal + $5 MORE. How do I get this back? Best option for

    Thanks for posting this. It took a bunch of times to get it to work for me. To anyone trying, if it doesn't work for you, just close the DirecTV windows, clear your cache and try again.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I just signed up for Direct via Costco. It took a bunch of tries, but I was finally able to get the referral and the extra $5 off to stick. Install scheduled March 5. Sorry Charlie, I would have stuck with you if you offered more than $10 credit.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    arrrrrrrrgh! Woke up this morning to find my Absolute gone, replaced by AT200 with 12 shopping channels in glorious SD. I chatted with Haroon K. The best he could do for me was $10 off for 12 months plus 3 PPV certs. I downgraded to DA Silver and will now go sign up for D* through Costco.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    Way too many people have claimed getting $15 off for a year or $20 for 6 months then $10 for 6 for it to be a lie. I'm thinking they must have very rigid rules based on your tenure. I was with Dish prior to Voom, then ever since. I've also only been offered $10, but haven't pushed them on it.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    :rant: Damn you Charlie, I'll give you my Absolute when you take it from my cold, dead hands! :rant: ... still got it for the moment. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I got switched over (involuntarily) to AT200 @ 59.99. I don't see where the $10 credit shows up. Its very frustrating to see that Dish is now offering new customers AT200 for $39.99 for 12 months... I thought in January they were offering just $10 off for new customers

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    Amen. All I've been offered so far is the $10 discount, which for me, simply can't compete with the Choice Xtra offer through Costco in terms of cost and channel selection. I think I'll hold off until early February to see if they sweeten their offer any. Otherwise, I'll bail and go with D*.

    Then you diffidently want to stay with Dish.

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I'm also struggling with this decision. About this time of year, I really miss getting the RSNs for the second half of hockey season. Last year I switched over to AT250 to get Versus and the RSNs. At the time I didn't realize they wouldn't let me switch back to Absolute. It took some...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    Ask them to waive the commitment. I've had luck w/ the executive office reps by telling them that I've been loyal to Dish and have no plans to leave, but I absolutely don't want a 24 month commitment hanging over my head in this economy. Hopefully regular CSRs have the ability to waive. Good...

    HD "only" package ($29.95) ??

    That doesn't make any sense to me. The public interest package channels are national - not local channels. Here's the channel lineup: Free Public Interest Programming Package I'd suggest playing CSR roulette and give it another try.

    Echostar3 Transponder 19 just Died

    Me too... really sucks having the signal lost during the 3rd period. Plus they've got the SD signal blocked for me.

    HD "only" package ($29.95) ??

    I switched over on Monday night. My motivation was that I wanted Versus so I could get the hockey playoffs. It took about 4 attempts to get straight that I wanted to drop AT200 and switch to HD only. Getting her to give me the Public Interest package was a real ordeal. Every time she...
