    Does anybody have a good customer service contact?

    Long story short....I need to get in touch with someone other than a basic customer service rep. I can get past the outsourced call center easy enough, but every time I explain my problems to the first tier domestic support person, they tell me someone will have to call me back- but they never...

    Really confused DTV pricing on new service

    Hello everyone, I decided to sign up for new DTV service, because I've had it with our cable provider- Bright House. Used to have U-Verse, then I moved 2 miles, and it's not available here. I went to the DTV websie, and saw the promo for their "premium" package, 12 months for $89.99, free...

    New to FTA- have Super Dish 121W

    Hey everyone, I got pretty lucky tonight- my neighbor who I mentioned an interest in FTA to a few days ago, stopped past and asked if I wanted a satellite dish. I said heck yeah, and ran over to his house to pick it up. Apparently, his son used to be a dish installer, and he had a Super Dish...
