    Question about the Price Increase

    According to CEO rep ... I just got off the phone with a CEO rep that called me to try to 'satisfy' a problem I had inquired about. To my surprise he was very courteous and took care of the situation. While on the phone I asked him about the official word on the new pricing in Feb. and he...

    All good points DishSubLA ..... especially the 'mid-level' statement .... so you can imagine how pi$$ed I was when they told me I was a 'C' level :mad: A solid customer for 11 yrs. / never missed (or late) on payments / always mid level package with (2) receivers.

    Question about the Price Increase

    Thanks Laddyboy, 8.00 is a 'little' better, lol. I seemed to remember reading in the fine print on Dish site that ALL receivers had to be connected, but I could have been mistaken. Would be nice if all that was in fact eliminated ... seems like a stupid fee to begin with :rolleyes: Right now...

I figured it was based on a number of factors and I am just curious to find out what factor qualified me in the last cat. :confused: We have ALWAYS payed our bill on time (for 11 years) and have always had an 'excellent' credit rating throughout our lives.

    How to contact CEO group???

    Yes, accordingly for existing customers that want to upgrade their equipment they fall into one of 3 categories (A/B/C) with A being the best. Which means they charge you less for the equipment and or labor to install. MOST all folks from what I've heard from 2 Dish dealers now, fall into cat...

    Question about the Price Increase

    You are correct and I understand this, however, I'm one of those guys that will probably stick with Dish for quite a while (I've been a customer for 12 years now) and look really long term. But, your right, by then the tables could easily be turned. ;)
