Hello everyone. I havent posted in quite awhile, but I got a call today and here we go... . Courtney called me from Dish Network's "winback" group. During her effort to sign me up again she guaranteed me there was a "Dish500 plus" and a "Dish1000 plus" , both of which would grant me access to...

I am currently negotiating with Dish for compensation. A csr turned of my LA distants by mistake and now "no power in the universe" can restore them. Just so everyone is clear: Imagine having LA locals for 5 years and all of a sudden losing them because a csr is incapable of following simple...

Lately I have had some problems with Dish and recently downgraded to just HD+VOOM. It also seems I am getting the AT180 channels BUT ONLY THE CHANNELS THAT ARE IN THE 180 PACK--i'M not getting the other 120 justb the extra 60. How wacked is that?

I called about 2am to go from 120 to 180 and add CT locals. I told the girl to lose my Chicago locals and keep LA. She did the opposite and I've lost my west coast networks. Thanx retard csr thank you very much. I have written ceo@echostar so you can imagine how tired of typing I am. Lets just...

I found a never used(confirmed by Dish) 7100 on ebay, got it for $20 and hooked it up. The first couple of hours I kept getting the "Getting TV information" screen. At this point I just told myself to not get upset;after all this was a DP and having owned one or two in my day I was prepared for...

Just recently I noticed a lease fee on my bill-$5. I know I never agreed to a lease, heres the story: Remember back in August the word was an 811 could be had for $99? I remember it clearly cuz I read it here or on DBSTalk.. Surer enough I sold my 6000 and called Dish TO PURCHASE an 811. The...

I was an excited loyal VOOM customer. One day I get a bill in the mail for $247! It seems they had stopped debiting my card for some reason and now I was 3 months behind. I tried to work something out-nothing happened and service was shut off. After reading yesterdays announcement, I decided to...

I know splitting satellite signals just doesnt work--voltage and polarity issues. if I get an sw64 and connect my 4 (2-110 2-119) to it I then need 2 leads from my 61.5. There is only one lead coming from my old VOOM dish --should I-A) split the VOOM lead before connecting to sw-64 or B) just...

I have asked about this b4-- I had a fine legacy dish500 set-up. now with VOOM gone I got another sw21 and took my Dish feed out of my 811, connected that feed as well as the 61.5 feed from VOOM to the new sw21. I am only getting 110 and 61.5 when I do a switch check. I tried my 2nd dish feed (I...

has anyone heard of or experienced this problem??? My 811 has a row of white dots across the top of the picture. At first I thought a light may be coming thru the holes in the back of the tv--that wasnt it. the dots are nowhere to be found on any of my 6 other inputs. I hoped my component cables...

I imagine this will be a popular topic-- I want to take my VOOM feed from the satellite and incorporate it into my Dish service. Previously I needed a splitter and a switch--now I just need the switch, right? I take the 61.5 and my present Dish feed and plug them into... what switch?? Any info...

I saw "Backdraft" on ch501 tonite and ran to the computer to find out what this channel was and if anymore were in the pipe. I see nothing aboutg it in this VOOM- savvy forum. Whats up? where did it come from? will it stay ?

its 334am est and I have no VOOM service--my signal strength is in the 40's and my stb thinks it is wednesday , dec 7th,at 7pm!! It seems like every time they add a channel, theres a problem. :no

I was just thinking about Dish superstation package and thought-"wouldnt a HD Superstations package be nice?" 2 issues- can they do it and will they do it?? If they have the room and the inititive, they need to find 4 or 5 independents that are up and running in HD and just get it done!! Wouldnt...

Well guys and gals, it appears my installer made the right call. For now. I did get a download last nite-I am now at 6.20. MY ESPNHD IS NOW HOLDING STEADY AT ....FLAWLESS!!!!!. Tech had mentioned it may be a software problem and for the time being, the new software version has restored my...

Had a box swap done today. The reason was I was not getting ESPNHD. Well, new box--same result. The installer blames the software. It is the only channel I dont receive. Actually I get it but it breaks up and is unwatchable. I get espn thru Comcast and Dish but thats no excuse for VOOM telling...

I called VOOM Friday and the rep determined I need a new box. Well Monday came and after 6 hours of being held hostage, I went to work. Voom wasnt all that upset and said they'd put a call in to (whoever).They didnt seem to care I was still w/o some HD channels and my day had been ruined. Well...

I have 1 simple line from the Voom 61.5 satellite going into the back of my Voom stb. If I split that line and had a free 61.5 feed available for my 811, how would I combine it with my Dish500 line going into the 811. I qualify for distant nets so I should qualify for CBSHD out of new york and...

Just got it, aint a sub no more--should I keep it in case I re-subscribe???

Happily, I was informed I have no commitment with DISH right now. So I dropped my service to locals,supers,and 2 west coast networks. A nice under $30 package. I have VOOM, I have COMCAST's everything pack. My question is...A-should I keep Dish at all? B--If I keep , should I go HI def(Sold my...

My girlfriend was working the remote last nite when I walked in the living room. zshe said she wanted to watch the movie on MAXPacific. I said too bad-"we only get the east coast on Comcast". She said she was on VOOM. Sure enough there it was and there it stayed for a couple hours. Then w/o...

I had to watch the late hockey game (Calgary and somebody) on Comcast hd or ESPN sd on VOOM. The espnhd channel on VOOM was a series of mosaics, tiling,blackness--all very interesting if I was on acid--but I was not on acid. I was on my recliner.Regardless of whether the game was in hd or not, I...

I took 2 hours off from work to be home and see "Enterprise" in HD from the very beginning. I got home- turned on the VOOM box and no signal! I looked outside and the antenna had been moved. Well, I spent 35 minutes moving and fu--ing with that damn antenna. Finally I gave up and resigned myself...
