    Exasperated Over Customer Service

    On July 9th I called Dish to inform them I was having pixilisation trouble on my VIP722. After running the standard tests it was determined that it needed to be replaced and the next day a tech showed up, on time, checked everything inside and outside and gave me a new 722. He had it activated...

    Sundance Channel-Included in HD Premium Or Not?

    Looking at the Dish web page they list the Sundance Channel (332) as included in the HD Premium (10.00) package. I've had the Premium Package for years, but just discovered that if I go to CH 332 it advises that it is a subscription package only. I do receive all of the other listed Premium...

    Snow On The Dish

    A strange occurrence in Fort Worth, TX; SNOW. I can see a slight, patchy covering of snow on my dish, and at first I lost HD and about 90 minutes later SD went away. The dish is probably less than 50% covered. I can't get at the dish and the temps here will keep the snow from melting for at...

    PQ old 622/New 722

    My 622 crashed two days ago. Dish sent out a tech as it could not be diagnosed on the phone. Dish waived all charges for the service call. The tech replaced the 622 with a 722. There is a distinct difference in PQ with the 722. It is nowhere as sharp as the 622. Everything else in the system is...

    How Do I Get There From Here?

    What I have: Three SD(301) and one HD (211) receiver. Dish 1000. Set up in four rooms. What I wanted: To upgrade the 211 to a 622. Called Dish. Informed I would have to return the 211 and one of the 301's due to four tuner limit. I agreed even though it is physically impossible to hardwire a...
