    Nee help with Dish billing

    62.99 for 250 package w/ locals + 4 solo receiver @$5 each =82.99 for the past two months. The image of the bill above is this months new bill I viewed online. I only have 3 receivers, so why are they charging me for 4 receivers? The CSR's have been removing the extra two $5 charges, but they...

    Nee help with Dish billing

    Long time dish customer here, I have two 508 DVR's and one 311 receiver on my account. When the new rates went into effect a couple months ago, my bill jumped from $69.99 to $82.99, which I think is wrong. The bill should be $72.99 I believe. I have the Classic Gold 250 with Locals...

    E* Customer Service Ratings Drop

    Well, here is a good CS post, FWIW. My last three CS calls went flawlessly. The most recent, I didn't even talk to a person, I was able to change my programming thru the phone menus, and it was pretty simple. Programming changes appeared on the receiver within a half hour. Previous two calls...

    501/508/510....p363

    Wouldn't surprise me, my 508's have been flaky recently. Skipping commercials in recorded show playback is quirky. Skips, jumps, audio mutes, just annoying. :mad:

    Went to the movies tonight:(

    The last flick we saw it was similar, noisy brats, restless teens, poor projection quality, had to go see a manager to get projection fixed (went dark), also audio didn't match what was playing on the screen during the previews... Now we wait for the DVD in the rental store, lots cheaper too.

    Dishplayer 7200 Class action lawsuit

    Yeah, Charlie is hoping you will throw them out.... I only got 5 also, and had 2 dishplayers I beta tested, nursed along, rebooted, etc. just to watch TV. Ended up e-baying them and using the proceeds to replace with a couple 508's.

    Side-stepping a Superdish

    1. You will need a Ku FSS Dual LNBF to feed 3A and 3B of your SW-64. I used a SkyVista brand dual LNBF for this purpose. You will also need a 75cm FTA antenna. (HotDish 75 or Winegard DS-2076 are good examples) 2. I would recommend taking a receiver and small TV outside to your 121 dish to...
