    DirecTV just installed

    Received the new (refurbished) HR21-200 last night. Although it isnt the newest equipment, I cant complain as it did not cost me anything. I called and activated it and they are sending me out the DECA equipment to wire it into my MRV system. I am very pleased with the outcome and service...

    DirecTV just installed

    I have received email confirmations of the 2nd HDDVR being added for no cost. I think it went through. They are sending it drop ship for a self install.

    DirecTV just installed

    I called back again and the customer service rep hooked me up with another HDDVR to exchange for one of my standard boxes for no cost! I should be set now. Outstanding result. I will now have 2 HDDVR's, an HD box, and a standard box all at no upfront costs at all. I am extremely satisfied.

    DirecTV just installed

    I am thinking of going the retention route. I have 24 hours to cancel and I dont think they will let me since they have done the install. We will see though

    DirecTV just installed

    I think I made a big mistake not getting 2 DVR's. I didn't want to pay the $99 extra for the extra HR-24 and now realize I made a huge mistake. I called withing 2 hours of installation and they want $199 now. I have 24 hours to cancel if I want I guess and redo it all on another order, but...

    DISH expected to settle with TiVo.

    Wrong. I had Dish DVR service and went to straight cable with a purchased TIVO and went back to Dish because I didnt like the TIVO.

    Earthquake!

    Earthquake (Moving...) A 5.4 quake hit this morning at 5:39 am as I brushed my teeth. Talk about waking you up in a hurry.

    Another OTA/1000.2 Question

    Got it to finally work. I guess I had a wire crossed. I am getting it to work interference free in the Indy area on ch. 28 for TV2

    Another OTA/1000.2 Question

    It will get the channels upon scanning if I hook the anteanna up directly. I think I may have the TV2 set to cable channel 73. Would that knock out the OTA signal?

    Another OTA/1000.2 Question

    Using this set up, what could cause everything to work but the OTA signal to not make it through. Where I normally get 28 channels upon scanning, I am getting 0 with no signal strength at all. I have followed the instructions to a T. It works on my down stairs 722, but when I do the same set...

    what is "DISH NETWORK DVR SERVICEFEE" on my bill?

    If you have more than 1 DVR you have to pay the fee for the 2nd DVR. That would be my guess if that is how you are set up.

    Anyone have problems with their locals last night?

    I was having trouble with 119 and 110 last night in Indiana and I also thought that some of the HD channels looked a little better after the trouble stopped. I thought it was just me though.

    Very Disappointed

    Affording either service isnt the issue, but it is much more of a matter of principle now. All I wanted was what I had signed up for. That is all I wanted.

    They told me everything was free!!

    Sorry, you have been denied. Fresh warm fries are not part of the standard package. You get the old soft heat lamp fries. If you would like, I could have our new guy make you some half cooked ones, but I sure aint doing anything for you cause I refuse to do my job the way I am supposed to. I...

    You need to stick with the Big Mac seeing as how you have been on here all day instead of out doing half assed installs that dont require any effort. The Whopper is too expensive for you.

    They told me everything was free!!

    Actually, it would be let the guy that cares about his work and is willing to do what he is contracted to do do the job. Dont ask the guy that is only willing to do it if he can throw a substandard job together and move on to the next victim.

    They told me everything was free!!

    I think you hit the nail on the head. This guy is just looking to make as quick and easy a buck as he can without regard to the quality of his work or the service he gives the customer regardless of what he is being paid to do.

    They told me everything was free!!

    And then you complain about someone thinking badly of an installer with an attitude like that. From reading the PDF, it appears that a professional standard install would include wall fishing for all interior room receivers if required for any new install that requires it.

    Just signed up for Dish Network

    Last Weds. I called and ordered DirecTV service. I was promised the 200 channel package, with an HD DVR, HD receiver, and 2 standard definition receivers for $199 up front. I was also given all the standard deals and credits. At first they wanted $298 up front, but after running a credit check...

    Very Disappointed

    The CSR gave me the standard $199 offer for just the HDDVR first and told me it would be an additional $99 for the HD Receiver, when I told her that was expensive and asked if there was anything she could do since both Dish and Cable did not charge those up front fees she did a credit report on...
