My best billing dispute already - they tried to charge me for a tech service visit that never happened. When I finally got a representative who understood enough English to figure out the problem, she offered to fix the problem by refunding me half the charge. I actually laughed before I said...

I'm a former Dish subscriber, now living in an apartment without a southern view so I've been forced to Comcast. I have a newfound appreciation for Dish service and (especially) the hardware. The DVR Comcast gave me looks and acts like it is from 2001. It won't group recordings into folders...

OP here - I live in the Southwest, but am originally from Illinois and went to the University of Illinois, hence why I would like to get BTN to watch a few football games. So I do need multi-sport to get BTN. I would gladly pay money for JUST the BTN, I don't want to pay $21 more a month when...

When did this happen? I was going to upgrade to AT120+ and Multi-sport today to get the Big Ten Network, and it's now $10 extra to get AT120+ (over AT120) and $11 for the multi-sport pack?!? I know it didn't used to be that much. I like to watch a few football games, but not for $21 a month...

The show can only be on one HD at a time, so it doesn't matter if they both fail at the same time or not. If the wrong one fails, you've lost your stuff.

I understand how the EHD works - but it's not the same as a backup. With Dish's system, it's either on the DVR or on the EHD, not both. If it were a true backup, I'd always be doing it, but as it is now it's only one one HD or another, and in either case it's a single-point failure away from...

Thanks - I will PM you my info in a bit. I'm just overall quite frustrated that this thing died with no warning and I'm out a half-full DVR of shows I'd been saving to watch.

I came home from work to find a 'hard drive failure' error on my 722K. Since then, it has been in a constant reboot loop. Won't even let me watch live TV! So, it's pretty much a nice boat anchor right now. I chatted with a Dish representative who initially wanted to charge me $15 shipping...

I don't think Sling would be good for me now - we only have DSL with ~800kbps upload. Faster upload with our provider raises the bill quickly. If we were driving all the time, moving the receiver might be ok, but my husband and I will probably travel different schedules and the houses will be...

That's too bad... I don't want to schlep my receiver across the country every time I go back and forth. I guess I'll probably just try to get a cheapo deal with Comcast or whoever is available while I'm out there.

Based on my searches, I'm guessing not, but thought it would be worth asking to see if one of the DIRT members might be able to clarify this for me. My husband and I may be temporarily relocated to the east coast for 1-2 years. We'd be maintaining our residence in our current city and be...

Yikes - that AT120+ price hike is something else... I used to upgrade to 120+ and the sports pack for BTN in college football season, and was actually thinking about doing it for some basketball this year as well. That price increase is ridiculous though.

I'm new to the board and wanted to send a public thanks to MattG and the DIRT team for great and fast help! I had a small issue with a piece of my Dish equipment and was pointed to this board and the DIRT team by a friend. MattG was able to help me resolve my problem (and in a way better than...

I think a lot of the SD channels have this problem on a big TV, but that's how it goes I guess.
