    Too Good to Be True? A Hopper in My Future?

    I'm a 2 TV home, so 2 Hoppers would be perfect. I just laid it out for the nice woman on the phone, explained why I was looking at Direct, that I've always been happy with Dish hardware and customer service (sub for 5+ years), and was exploring my options. I've found that being honest, laying...

    Too Good to Be True? A Hopper in My Future?

    I am in the same boat in Indy...was offered 2 Hopper/0 Joey install with multisport for free (for NFL redzone) and 10 dollar credit for a year if I didn't leave for Direct. I'm debating taking them up on it....I'm going to wait a bit and see if OTA is added to Hopper. I recently went to Best...

    Dish dropping WTHR Indianapolis (Dispatch Broadcasting Group)

    Sigh..... I've dealt with enough Dish disputes over the years and kept an eye on the Direct disputes also...based on my current situation, what Dish offers, what Direct offers, history, pricing, etc, etc....I'm about ready to pull the trigger. Obviously, we, the consumer, have 0 control...

    Dish dropping WTHR Indianapolis (Dispatch Broadcasting Group)

    Yeah this will be the last straw for me...when Big 10 network and WTHR are both gone, I'll be switching to Direct. Have an install scheduled for next Friday, if Dish gets their act together, I'll consider cancelling the install

    DIRT: Please help!

    Also, when I look at the guide on dishonline.com, it shows locals that are not mine, it shows only a few of my locals, none in HD. What a mess

    DIRT: Please help!

    I have a 722 connected via ethernet. No sling. Don't want to watch TV, just want to manage my DVR from dishonline.com like it should work. When I go to dishnetwork.com and look at my account, i see the 722 is "Broadband connected" but when go to dishonline.com, it says "cannot connect to receiver"

    DIRT: Please help!

    I'm having some issues with connecting to my receiver on Dishonline. Really hoping to get something set to record later today, but it says my receiver is not connected, I know it is though! John

    So whos NOT getting a Hopper due to lack of OTA?

    OTA will not be a dealbreaker for me. I rarely use it now as is with a 722 and 622. I have an OTA antenna run directly to the individual sets for the rare times I need a subchannel or rain is blocking signal. PTAT more than makes up for lack of OTA. The majority of our recordings are network...

    HD absolute access charge?

    Cannot add multisport pack with Absolute package. It is a not a "qualifying package" whatever that means. Why they would not want my 7 bucks a month is beyond me :confused:

    Post your Dish offers to move from Dish HD Absolute

    Not sure if you're being sarcastic or serious. I'll assume you're just poking fun at the way some people are reacting the the possible death of Absolute. Yeah, everyone else can complain all they want. Ive been happy to be on the gravy train with Absolute for as long as I have. If it has...

    Post your Dish offers to move from Dish HD Absolute

    I cant wait for my "call" to come in. If they offer me a 39.99 for AT200 + 6 months free platinum, I'm all over that like white on rice. Pick up BTN and Red Zone, Fox News, BBC america, FX, G4, all channels I was willing to pay 10+ per month for with absolute. Now the question is, can I get...

    CONFIRMED(?)- Dish Discontinuing Absolute HD Package

The one thing Ive always had trouble with is no RSN which includes Big Ten Network (huge Buckeyes fan), and last year, Red Zone. But if the deal being thrown around is...

    Pricing Update from Dish Network

    Bob To be perfectly honest, Im getting a little sick of hearing about how Dish is screwing over THEIR BEST CUSTOMERS and YOU ARE SO IMPORTANT, and THEY SHOULD CATER TO ME!! Why are you (or the "high end" customers) so much more important than me, the "little guy" customer? I actually stand to...

    New Equipment Fees & Lease Fees

    I tried my hardest to eliminate the confusion. I really did. I wrote a well thought post that delivers ALL the information we have. I posted it in 3 threads so far, but it still has not been read. You are making this much more complicated than it is with excel spread sheets and webpages...
