    DirecTV receives 'F' from BBB -- StopHDLite

    Stop HDLite Wish I had found this before I switched from E* to D*. If you're happy with your current D* HD, that's great -- move along, nothing to see here. If you're an E* HD subscriber and thinking of switching, then read this and re-consider.

    Cancelled DirecTV after 2 weeks -- billing dispute

    All, I won't go in depth about my original issue, which is covered in another thread. Long story short, had the H20 installed in hopes of receiving local HD soon but was disappointed with the HD quality compared to my previous service providers. So I contact DirecTV today, and I had the...

    DirecTV -- utter garbage (plea for help)

    All, I recently switch from Dish to DirecTV. When I moved to the sticks in '04, Cox cable wasn't availble in the area (and probably never will be). Originally went with Dish, but just switched to DirecTV for the H20 and Phoenix's impending MPEG4 rollout (May) [no, I can't get OTA because I'm...

    Hello all, My Toshiba 46" is DVI and component and I noticed the H20 is HDMI. Does the H20 come with a HDMI->DVI convertor, or will I have to buy one?

    Just switched to D* for mpeg4 -- now I'm confused

    Mpeg 4 question from non-subscriber

    All, Looks like Phoenix will be rolling out with the mpeg4 upgrade soon. I'm currently a E* subscriber but plan to switch because I can't receive OTA. Is it better for me to be a customer (in terms of $/deals/upgrades) *before* the rollout, or wait until after? I definitely want to go for...

    Phoenix AZ MPEG4 rollout: any progress?

    Hi all, I'm an E* subscriber that can't get my Phoenix OTA because I'm 40 miles out and blocked by mountains. I remember hearing that Phoenix was due sometime after Boston, possibly in January. Has anyone heard any definitive dates for the mpeg 4 rollout in the Phoenix metro area? Thanks!

    Phoenix E* HD, thinking of D* HD switch -- many questions!

    Hi all, Currently a Dish subscriber in a very remote corner of Scottsdale, AZ. Dish's HD content is ok, but the lack of HD LIL is *killing* me (can't get OTA because I'm about 35 miles out and surrounded almost 360° by mountains). It sounds like DirecTV is very close to rolling out...

    Phoenix, AZ mpeg 4 yet?

    Hi all, I'm a Dish subscriber in the extreme northeast corner of Scottsdale, AZ (about 30+ miles from downtown Phoenix). Because of terrain and distance, I'm unable to receive OTA local HDs (I have an 811). Has DTV rolled out mpeg4 in the Phoenix metro area yet? I know Phoenix wasn't in...
