I had DirecTV installed back in December 2010 and I am currently in a contract with them. I have Cablevision (Ultra Package) for my internet and voice. I am moving to a house and I am just not sure if I want to have a satellite dish installed. I know I cannot cancel and get out of my contract...

oops topic should be *mind*. I was just so eager to get this off my chest :)

Back in November 2007 I had moved so I canceled my account. I had two DVRs and my Internet Modem. In December 2007 I received boxes to return them and shipped them out. Since then about every two months I started receiving collections notices that I had an oustanding balance of $2000 for...

hmm my splitter only has -7db that they installed. I'll give it a whirl with -3db.

harshness - I'll see what I can do. But they are very picky with changes to providers. They wouldn't entertain the idea of Verizon FIOS install last time, but it would help if they complained so we will see. The tech that was here on Saturday did say he would have his supervisor send someone...

They won't allow dsl or any other types of installs on the unit. And that's what I am doing but they make me wait 5 days between appointments in this situation where they couldn't get a modem to work. I try to complain but they won't do anything about it.

in an apartment complex so I have to stickw ith Cablevision - otehrwise I would go back to FIOS that i had in my last place.

Well, I've been having tons of optimum issues. With the basic package of optimum, I drop a lot of packets rather frequently. When I upgraded to Boost - that problem stopped, but throughout the weekend and evenings most days, the cable modem would restart as though I unplugged and replugged it...

problem's back -- it went away for like a week and since then I've been dropping packets like CRAZY. They just keep trying to do do ALL the same troubleshooting with me and its like a vicious circle. Trouble shoot, send tech, he cant do anything - back on the phone and they want to...

problem solved. There is a high signal coming in , but that wasn't causing a problem. They installed something onto the cable going to my cable modem to reduce the signal and when I looked at the signal quality screen on the IP address page for the box .... it was very good. I ended up...

Well, I have a tech scheduled to come out since this issue hasn't been resolved - but it has been hard to get a Saturday date when I am available. For about a month, I've had my cable go out for hours at a time for no reason at all. I'm in an apartment complex with the cable box outside of my...

I have the same issue and I don't think it is guide info updates. It happens multiple times a night - maybe it happens during the day and I don't notice because I am only in my bedroom when I am sleeping. TBH it is pushing me towards getting a second Tivo just to not hear that sucker spinning...

I've been a cablevision subscriber for awhile but when FIOS was in the area I moved over to them (2 years ago) since they offered a major discount for existing cable subscribers and cablevision wasn't willing to lower my rates. I switched back to Cablevision when I moved last year and...

Well, after speaking with Cablevision - I was able to get them a permanent fee of $115 per month (after taxes I believe). and 1 year free DVR. Nice to see that they will be giving to those who have been long term customers.

I have family that want to get the Triple Play Package, however, since they are an existing Cablevision customer, they are not eligible. I heard that they might be able to get similar deals since they have been a customer for such a long time but I am not sure if this is accurate. Is there...

Best news in a long time! Thanks HBK

Excellent. Currently they do get all the other HD channels ( i was surprised those were not scrambled and thsi is with no box hooked up). I'll have them get the CableCard and see how things go. I believe they have an "installation" charge from what I have previously read which I find...

My girlfriends parents got an HDTV Plasma Screen and currently have an older analog cablebox. Now I hooked up the coax cable directly to the TV and they get all of their channels (They have Family Basic) including YES which they get on all other TVs with just the coax cable hooked up...

Just to clarify - would the HD channels for ABC/CBS/NBC/WB all be the regular stations? Rather than HD Specific channels? Also, if the Coax is plugged directly in without the cable card - these channels will work - correct?

I read more on iO Navigation and I think I understand. By paying the $4.95 for it - it would allow them to watch the 6 HDTV channels (like WB / NBC/ ABC / etc..) which are the normal channel numbers (correct? 2 4 7 etc) Then if they wanted the 18 HDTV channels they would need to get iO Basic...

ahh HBK409 you are always here when I need you. I have seen iO Navigation but what exactly does that include? Is that pretty much what you need to get the channels 700+ for HDTV? And since that is not iO Basic it would be minus the channels 100-199? Also, I thought the card just slides...

A friend of mine just purchased a 50" Plasma HDTV set which has the Cable card slot. They are still in the stone age and do not currently use a cablebox (just directly connecting from the coax). They are on one of the family plans and I am trying to figure out what they would need to get HDTV...

I spoke with the Sales Rep that called me and decided to go ahead and make the move. I guess it really isn't a big deal if I don't get an HD Receiver since it seems easy enough to switch them out in the store when I move to an HDTV. Anyone know which explorer you get with the non-hd dvr? I...

One quick thing to add. I have 2 TV's I will be using this for and I do not yet have HDTV and I won't for at least 6-12 months. Now, should I plan ahead and get an HD cable box with DVR (assuming it will also work on my non-hd tv until i get HD)? Or should I go with another box that is just...

I am a previous Cablevision subscriber and enjoyed the service along with my Optimum Online. I ended up switching to Dish Network though last year in October due to the fact that they offered a great price for 3 receivers (one with 2 tuners built-in) and their best package. Each receiver...
