Thanks, will go on web and find one. They don't show up on Tapatalk. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Zach, Cut the cord some time ago, but we are contemplating coming back. The $49.00 2 year price lock deal is very attractive. Recently I saw in the Military Exchange weekly sale flyer that Dish has a Military program. I think it was a 3 year price lock. It included a phone number, but no...

Just checked the WBZ Facebook page. WBZ is making it seem like this is all the fault of DISH, just like Fox25 did when FIOS dropped them, but the viewer comments are all directed towards CBS. For the most part they suggest CBS should not be asking for more money. We cut the cord two years ago...

So as a former Dish customer and current cord cutter, I receive the typical "please come back" mailings once or twice a month. It's been over a year, we are reasonably happy with OTA and streaming, and it is certainly a big cost savings. I usually take a quick look at the mailings on the off...

I for one had no idea that multichannel video providers had to pay the locals to retransmit until I found this site (several years ago). We switched to Dish when they began carrying the locals in our DMA, and yes it was $5.00 more per month. I honestly thought it was an up charge by dish for...

I expect most tv viewers don't realize that you can still receive OTA! We dropped Dish over a year ago. Frankly it was a combination of economics, and our dissatisfaction with overall content of pay tv. Sure we miss some shows, and we definitely miss the cable news and NESN, but we have three...

I suppose you should have asked the question before you set up the Hopper Install, but especially before the tech left your house! I don't know much about windows tablets, which I assume you are using, but have you explored going through a browser? Good luck Ross Sent via Tapatalk

It wasn't too many years ago that wasn't the case...the sox would get pushed off to the alternate channel which may or may not have been on HD. So now I watch on the at bat app and yes I get the sox and live in Massachusetts...I'm sure you know how :) Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Look again at the first post there is a line in there that says Dish never mentioned the fee to customers when quoting the price of service, seems that May have been the straw that broke the camels back? Of course if this is the way the laws are going to go does that mean telecom companies have...

So it's been just about a year since we cut the cord and I have to be honest we really enjoy saving almost $1000.00 a year. Sure it took a bit of getting used too, and there are times we miss a few of the "cable" channels but overall we are happy. We also stream through ROKUs and iPad. Works...

Exactly! Ross Sent via Tapatalk

My dad went from dish to direct (he's 86). Has had no problem adjusting. The installer was able to program the direct remote to operate the tv...dish installer never could get the dish remote to do that. Makes it much easier, especially for my mom.. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Just out of curiosity where did you pick up a TiVo premier with lifetime service for $150?. The least expensive buy it now on eBay is $440.00, auction is not much better. I think most folks that are selling a TIVO premier with lifetime are looking to get the investment in lifetime service...

As long as they don't charge for the box it's still a good deal. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Don't know if this will help but I use the HDMI adapter on my ipad 4 to watch TV. Some apps just won't allow the video to pass through the adapter. I was watching the ALDS then the ALCS through the TBS app. About half way through the ALCS there must have been an update to thenTBS app because...

The bottom line is you need to be willing to cut back to barebones TV. I think having two pay services is not saving you money. If OTA isn't an option then go with the least expensive pay service. Here if I subscribed to Comcast Internet we would also receive a limited amount of locals for...

Technically you would be correct however individual state law may include leased equipment in the "sales tax" law. For example in Massachusetts if I lease a car I still have to pay sales tax on the car, even though I am not purchasing it. Same with that cell phone I got for "free", I didn't...

Got the same email, but we dropped dish back in February. They add is such a sham...a person really needs to do due diligence to find out what the real cost will be. Dish still needs to do a lot better if they want to get us back... Sent via Tapatalk

So I cut the cord in February. If dish is looking to increase sales with this promotion I would think that it would run on network TV, I haven't seen it, doesn't mean it's not there, just that I haven't seen it. Sure they want folks to jump from other pay TV providers, but there are plenty of...

Makes you wonder though...if someone has enough skill to put a dish up at a friend or relatives home and take one of their receivers to that house it would seem to me that they would also check out the forums and blogs to find out all the skinny. I mean if the audit team calls and leaves a...

Frankly I think the OP could have done a better job of stating his position. Many of the locals have infomercials in the wee hours and there are quite a few of the non broadcast channels carried by dish that have infomercials as well. I never checked but does dish count the channels that show...

Thanks for the info so far. What I am looking to do is fix the remote so my mom can turn on the TV, adjust volume and change the channels on the dish receiver ( not on the TV) Unfortunately my dad bought off brand TVs, which has made it just about impossible to find a code for the tv to...

My mother has dementia and has a difficult time remembering witch buttons to use on the remote. My dad has taped up the remote to try and keep her from pushing the wrong buttons but invariably she manages to do it, frequently enough that it is a real problem. I am thinking of buying a remote...

Started with dish around 1998 or 1999. Bought the dish and receiver off eBay. Installed it myself, didn't do a very good job but it worked. Went to COMCAST for a year in 2004/2005 (I was unemployed so it was purely a financial move....back to dish in spring of 2005. Just cut the cord to OTA...
