    Should I switch to Directv?

    Things went well with Dish. They tried to offer me a deal but really could not match DirecTV's. I am not leaving unhappy with Dish, but economically, the DirecTV deal was too good to pass up. I'm sure, in time, Dish will come out with one and once the contract expires with DirecTV, I will...

    Should I switch to Directv?

    I got a new offer for the same listed above but for $39 per month!! I went ahead and signed up. Now I have to cancel Dish. I re-upped a couple weeks ago ($10 off with contract) but have not been billed or actually even gone a month so I hope I can cancel OK. Basically, Dish has not YET saved...

    Should I switch to Directv?

    Thanks for the information! Now to convince my wife! When I did a chat with Dish to see if they would meet Direc's prices, the first thing they told me was: "But you agreed to sign up with us for two years... and we saved you $120..." I told her, yes, but that was 24 hours ago and you haven't...

    Could they re-use my Dish dish locations? My wife says, "No more holes on the house!"

    Look at Timewarner cable

    I called Time Warner ONLY due to trying to cut my monthly costs as part of an overall budget setting move, and found that I can get a one year deal which includes 230 digital channels + HD-DVR and I can save an additional $5 ($45.99 after deal) on my cable internet for a total of $95 + tax, per...

    I can't believe it but I switched back to cable..and I'm happy.

    I cannot get good reception unless I use a big antenna & I don't want a big antenna on the house. So, I guess it is more asthetics than even geography... Although I live where there are lots of trees and a few mountains close by.

    I can't believe it but I switched back to cable..and I'm happy.

    I am making the switch back to cable (Adelphia) too. I have been with Dish for 6 years now. They still don't offer HDTV recording (for the masses) nor my locals in HD. With Adelphia, I will get getting a Moxi HDTV Tuner/PVR combo box, all my locals, plus the usual handful of HD content for...

    6 Month Free HDTV?

    Sounds like a great deal that could pull me away from Dish... But, are there any receiver deals? Dish gave me the HD receiver free with no contract. If the HD DVR had a good deal, I would switch in a second! Sounds like DirecTV may be coming out with more channels too. Dish's 5 channels are...
