    Good customer service

    I know this hardly ever happens, but I wanted to compliment Dish Network for their customer service. I recently cancelled my account with Dish Network. They advised they would send boxes for me to return my recievers and LNB. I didn't receive the boxes in the time frame they advised, but...

    HD DVR question

    I have the Scientific Atlanta HD DVR here in OKC. I have read through the guides and used the friendly automated assistant on Cox' Website, but to no avail. My question is this. Is there a way to set the guide so it only shows the channels I receive. When I am looking at the guide, it shows...

    Dish network guide and DVR

    Just thought this would be useful to some of you guys. I just switched to my local cable provider (Cox Communications) from Dish. The savings in my "bundle" was the main reason for the switch because I am saving money. I played with the DVR and guide functions. While I love the "On Demand"...

    Can this be done easily?

    I have decided to leave Dish Network for the "bundle" from my cable. I really dont have anything bad to say about Dish Network and have been very satisfied in the 3 years I have had them. This is purely about what is best for me and my money...no more and no less. I have been reading about...

    Noggin 24/7?

    I'm sure this has been posted somewhere else, but I have a frustrated 2 year old missing a movie he had been looking forward to for several days. Did E* decide not to broadcast Noggin 24/7? All of the other providers in my area have moved the N to a seperate channel so Noggin is 24/7. If so...

    Is the Digital Home Protection Plan worth it?

    I currently have the protection plan and, since I am under the commitment, Dish is giving me a credit for the plan. However, my commitment is up next month. My question is, what exactly does this cover. If I am leasing my box and it goes bad, don't they cover the damages? If a storm knocks...

    ESPN blocked last night

    I turned on to ESPN to watch the Rangers/Yankees game and a box came up advising this game has been blocked in my area. I live in OKC so I am not sure why it was blocked. I had been able to watch anything that ESPN offered in the past on cable which included the Rangers. Additionally, it...

    Local weather?

    I know most of you guys aren't too concerned about this and I promise you my life will go on without much concern either way.... However, when I was digging around Dish Networks updated website the interactive TV now boasts you can hit your interactive button when you see the local on the 8's...

    Possible switch problem

    The past few days I have had an infrequent problem pop up and I don't know what it is or what to do about it. When I turn on my 625 it occassionally says "Please Wait" on the screen before the system turns on with the Dish Network Logo. It then takes a few seconds to turn on. No big deal...

    A questions about switching from E*

    I have gotten an offer from our local cable company, Cox Communications that will be hard to refuse regarding bundling. I really like E*, but money is money. My question is this: Once I have fulfilled the 18 month contract that I entered what is the procedure for canceling with E* if I...

    Hi everyone, I am a satellite newbie and have a question. We have an ice storm approaching over the weekend. They are prediction 2" of ice. My question is if I spray a chemical deicer on my dish and I think it is called the LNB, will that cause any damage to my dish. What is the best...
