    VOOMllc.com down (Message: check back later..)

    Even if they offer it for free, they will still have very unhappy subscribers if the installers screw up, don't show, the receiver box locks up etc.

    No, they will schedule an installer to deliver the remote. Be sure to be home on a work day between the hours of 8am and 6pm.

    Predictions on Voom subscriber numbers

    I must disagree. Everyone seems to have opinions as to why Voom ONLY has less than 30000 subscribers at this point. Note that that number has not changed much in the last 6 months. That means that the churn has been 100% lately. Why? In my opinion, and I have stated it before; they are...

    DishNetwork vs. DirecTV antennae

    Dish Network LNBs and dishes work fine with DirecTv, Voom, etc. The Multiswitches are not always compatible. Did the 500 come with two SW41 switches? Also Dish uses primarily satellites at 110 degrees and 119 degrees. DirecTv uses primarily 101 degrees with many locals at 119 and HD at 110...

    Wondering why I went to V* after switching back to D*??

    I had both Voom and D* HD from March to September. Early September I canceled Voom. I found that I was watching D* (on the HD Tivo) 95%+ of the time. Voom was mostly for channel surfing since I found it difficult to watch a whole movie or program and get interrupted with "no signal" messages...

    DirecTV or Voom? Your honest opinion....

    Cinema 10 reminds me of going into a Video rental store and seeing row after row of old movies that I immediately bypass in order to find the "New Arrivals" section.

    Voom chases off another customer.

    :D Since March, I have paid about 50% of the total monthly subscription ($200) to Voom and 50% to DirecTV. However, after I got the HD Tivo, I have watched DirecTV 98% of the time and 2% on Voom (usually just surfing). When I ordered Voom back in March, I was planning to eventually cancel...

    Voom chases off another customer.

    I have had VaVaVoom with one receiver (lease) from day one (March of this year). I have requested no changes. Bill was always $94.76 (includes suspect/illegally collected Michigan sales tax). Got my bill today. $156.63??????? So what did they do? They charged for the full VaVaVoom package, and...

    If you have two providers, what percentage of Voom are you watching?

    D* HD Tivo 99%, Voom 1%. Lately, every time I find something to watch on V*: 1. The guide (both online at Zap2it, and the onscreen guide) is incorrect, so what I want to watch is not showing. :mad: 2. If I am watching something, after about an hour, I will get a message that blocks out the...

    Constant lockups, still. WTF?!

    Here is my tip. This makes my box much more stable (yes it's all relative). After the power cycle reboot. Hide away the remote for half an hour. Do not press ANY button on the remote (not even to make the initial menu go away). After the 30 minutes, then change channels and view as normal.

    What size dish are you using with Voom

    I purchased my own 30" dish. From the time I ordered it, I received it and installed it in about 5 days. Total cost with shipping was about $70. ($30 for dish and $40 for shipping).
