    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    If that was true voom HD returning to dish I would reluctantly go back I really miss Voom Hd and while I am happy at directv; we would pay the penalties and switch back if Voom HD was back at dishnetworks but I am not holding my breath that would happen.:eek: I think the people claiming...

    Premium VS Voom Poll

    dish would need to bring back Voom HD to get us back! I switched to Directv due to Voom HD being dropped and while I greatly enjoy the quality of service, picture, etc. I would switch back to the weak customer service and being treated like crap by dish if they brought back voom HD!

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    dish needs new management I signed up for dishnetworks soley due to Voom HD as that was enough of a quality of content and picture to go with dish instead of DirectV but now that their poor management dropped Voom and treated us like crap; well the scales are clearly for Directv and we are...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    I say death to dishnetworks for dropping dish and for their poor customer treatment and service! I've switched to Directv and while I am content as there are no options for Voom HD at this time; we will switch to whomever does carry them if they resurface, which I hope they do. The more you...

    OFFICIAL: Dish Network Not Enough New HD Complaint Thread

    I agree we dropped dish due to the loss of Voom! We were so upset we tried to complain and hope they would bring back Voom HD but after even more poor customer service and their BS lies about HD we canceled our services completely and are saving money, even though money was not important...

    Dish network® meets 100 hd channel mark ahead of schedule

    I agree dish is not to be trusted! I agree! I switched to Directv due to Voom being removed and it has been a great change. The HD DVR just took a bit to get used to but I see not much major difference in the hardware to ever justify untrustworthy dish networks again! Unless the bring...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    Thats a good question, I'd probably go back as Voom HD as everyone in our house misses Voom HD a lot! I would have to say that having just switched, I have found the Directv to be far better of a company. They were much more educated, helpful, organized over the phone, they provided real...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    You can stop paying them your money which helps them get away with taking Voom away! The more people whom hate Voom being taken away that cancel dish the more they will feel the pain! Voom users are at the high end of the monthly payments so we are often equal to 3 to 4 regular users as we...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    don't wait Cancel now and let Charlie know why! I agree! The best way to get back is to cancel your service and make it clear why! Right now American Express is offering a free $50 to switch to Directv. If you check that along with Directv's special deals will make it worth it to cancel...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    Voom has great programs and we definately miss channels like the Treasure HD, Equator HD, Ultra HD, Rave HD, Rush HD, etc. What I think is sad is that dish never tried to market them at all! Voom would be a great asset to differentiate themselves against Directv and the couple of cable...

    Getting a HDTV, questions about current offers/costs for existing Dish customers

    Since you have had them for the 24 months you might think of shopping around to other providers like Directv? I had HD long ago and joined dish due to the Voom HD package but now that they dropped it I am going to Directv and getting the same channels and saving $788 year one $216 year two. PS...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    I hope there is some future Voom options in California. I am switching to Directv due to price as I'm saving $788 in year one then $216 in years two on; but I'd switch regardless of penalties if I had an option to get Voom in CA?

    Im Switching to directv

    So you never have had Voom? Voom HD had 15 channels of commercial free HD with many channels with programs not available anywhere else like the Equator HD, Treasure HD, Rave HD, Rush HD and others. Monsters and the Kung Fu channels were the only ones with some content that you could find...

    Im Switching to directv

    You then have 17 months left or a penalty of $221 and right now American Express is giving $50 to switch to Directv so you would only need to save $171. I saved $788 compared to dish and would save another $216 per year so I think you would likely save a lot in the first year promotions with...

    Any body knows how much I have to pay..

    fyi, if you were thinking of switching to Directv, American Express is giving $50 to switch if you do so before July 31st, which might help pay for any penalties. Plus their current specials at Directv saved us $788 the first year then $18 each month after the first year; we switched with 5...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    Voom was great and I pray they come back somewhere? I also hate commercials! Voom definately represents many great channels sorely missed like Equator HD, Treasure HD, Rave HD, Rush HD, etc. :( I was fine paying extra for those channels and I think if they actually advertised Voom HD more...

    Thanks to Charlie dropping Voom HD - we are switching this Saturday! I am having my Directv dish installed this Saturday! I am getting the HD DVR, the HD Digital Choice, with locals, with HBO & Showtime which is the same as what I paid dish $127 a month but the difference is now I pay $44.98...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    Neither am I! Finally called Directv and got a great deal the same channels that I paid $127 a month for over 45% less the first year then 30% there after. I would still rather be willing to pay a premium for Voom so if anyone in the West Coast picks up Voom we would switch no problem at all.

    Voom..Are you still happy it's gone?

    I am completely unhappy with the new channels and really most are already channels we got in SD only 7 or so are really new. Most are up converted and very weak clarity and of the new shows most are weak like the weather channel and the cartoon channel. dish is not the leader in HD nor do they...

    AT&T Demands Payment On $500 Million DISH Note

    I think thats good, my ergen is getting a bit of his same medicine, what comes around goes around. He dropped Voom HD, ignored the top tier customers and replaced the 15 Voom channels with weak up converted crap, charges too much now that Voom HD is gone, and in a lawsuit with Tivo and Voom for...

    I agree that dish is very decietful and a terrible group of executives! I am very upset without Voom HD, my wife and I really miss the Voom HD shows as we watched them often. I am surprised you say it will cost you money to switch though? For me I called Directv and discovered that I would...

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    Again, where is the HD you subscribed to? it has been stolen by dish and mr. charlie ergen as they continue to manage in their ivory towers and ignore their highest margin customers whom pay the highest cost per month! Voom HD is the best HD both in terms of clarity and content. I have...

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    I agree except for the part where you say they used VOOM HD as a selling point. The reason is I saw zero marketing on Voom HD channels and dish networks charged an extra premium ontop of the premium I was paying to get the HD package. That does not seem a very good way to use the VOOM HD 15...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    dish networks is to blame! dish to me is to blam as they did zero to try to market it and they even charged a premium ontop of their normal HD premium! I will keep bitching and keep convincing others in my network to drop dish networks. I think people whom just let a company treat them like...
