    Georgia VS Florida Football game Pixelation

    Went and watched something else.By the time I got back(at the end of the game) someone somewhere had fixed it.Semi surprised no one else either did or didn't notice it as it was most likely the most watched game in that time period.

    It may finally be time to say Good Bye

    If I was going to change it would be to YT TV. It's programming closely matches what we have now.Plus last I checked not all live tv streaming services do 5.1 audio.

    It may finally be time to say Good Bye

    They gave me a big one time discount to make up for the CSR not forwarding me up to retention/loyalty. I have to call back in early November.

    Why don't all the channels show up on dish Anywhere app?

    The OP stated " I use the dish anywhere app on my Roku TV " so you can see my confusion. I guess if he had a firestick or Appletv box plugged into the Roku TV and stated so perhaps I would less confused. And I cant get rid of the stupid bullet points.

    Why don't all the channels show up on dish Anywhere app?

    I didn't think Roku supported Dish Anywhere-it's the only reason I have a Firestick. Learn sumptin everyday.

    It may finally be time to say Good Bye

    Here's where I'm at.Called the 888-496-1260 number(Ironically I used to have the number in my signature on this forum) and had a pleasant conversation with George in Tulsa. He indeed was loyalty/retention. Started out by saying"Oh jeez -you called a day too late for the promo!" When I explained...

    It may finally be time to say Good Bye

    I seem to remember that number becoming a standard number after The Great Hack(already a distant memory).But I will give it a try next. I guessing that Dish now has a metric on how often a customer gets passed up the chain and there was a Monday Morning memo emphasizing the point.

    It may finally be time to say Good Bye

    Been a Dish customer for a long time-twenty something years.Every 2 years I play the loyalty/retention game and get a deal. I wasnt asking for anything outrageous-just a continuation of the same measly $12 in credits off my bill if I reupped. The CSR REFUSED to pass me along to...

    Dish Protect

    I remember reading an article a number of years ago about a guy who experimented with "do you have a good guy discount?" whenever he was shopping. Many times he heard "I can't give you a discount but I can do this for you...' Worst case everybody lightened up a bit.

    Hopper Plus Required for Signal Saver? - NO

    They unfortunately do not provide streams for our locals which happen to be the ones that cut out the most.Not all of us have OTA signal- I put up a large Channel Master UHF antenna with a booster in a vain attempt . I shoulda listened when the antenna website said I needed a 135 foot high tower!

At the last...

It was a local channel and it was wet out so I went to ESPN because it's a different satellite and has internet switchover.Still black.I was going to check out the satellite signal etc...

    HDNet Movies - commercials and censoring

    I happened to be on an Caribbean cruise while those finals were being played.Large crowds around the public tvs with the locals rooting for the Heat and the rest of us rooting for the underdog Mavericks. First and last time I rooted for a team from Dallas. Thank you Jerry Jones.

    Thanks for that.Gives me a number to shoot for in a few months.Good to hear the Loyalty number works again.After the Great Hack it connected you to a frontline CSR and you had to jump through all the hoops to get to Loyalty.
