    Tips on dropping service?

    Anyone that has said you cannot cancel through chat has not done it recently. I did it over a month ago and there was no attempt to force me to call in to cancel instead. I simply went to my account online and used the chat option to cancel. For those that doubt it I have the emailed transcripts...

    Tips on dropping service?

    Drop them through a an online chat session. At least then you will have documented proof of conversation with the CSR. Don't forget to have the thing emailed to yourself, it is an option. When you get your boxes that they charge for, to get 'their' equipment back send it all back asap. The CSR...

    About last night...

    We have Netflix. I stream off the Wii and a Roku box both and have no issues at all. As for damaged disks we have yet to receive one. Charlie asked, why pay more and I thought he had a point. He's not getting any of our paychecks anymore. We've been without dish now for a few weeks and I have...

    DISH Network Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results

    LOL, they tried to keep me on but free HBO and Showtime for three months wasn't even an option. When they wanted to know what I pay now even they admitted they couldn't beat $10 a month.

    DISH Network Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results

    As of five minutes ago I just became the first sub loss of the next new quarter. That is more money in my pocket and less for Charlie's lawyers. Best of luck to the rest of you guys. Now that I killed the pig I'm thinking pork chops sound good for dinner.

    Dish getting pricey

    My biggest issue is all of the tv providers cable and satco's alike all price themselves within a few bucks of each other. All claim to have the best whatchamacallit and most whateveryou want. In the end though it is all overpriced junk I'm tired of paying a mint for every month. I looked at...

    Dish getting pricey

    We've picked use OTA, a Roku box, Netflix, and use an older computer as a DVR. The wife just gave the go ahead to drop the Dish Network. They said, "Why pay more?" and we asked ourselves that very question. Why should we pay more? It isn't worth it to us anymore to have hiked up fees and price...

    HIGHER PRICES COMING PEOPLE

    We've already grown tired of the greed. After the NHL Center Ice package is up we're shipping everything back to Dish and using the OTA antenna we have. We don't' watch that much tv anymore because the programming is lacking. I can think of better ways to spend our $66 a month ($39 according to...

    The Stick it to Dish anyway you can thread !

    That's the whole deal I just don't get. We paid to have the box installed. We pay for the DHPP. We pay to lease the bloody box. The danged thing is a 625 and we've had it going on four years now. You can't tell me they haven't made their money back and then some by now. Nevermind the thing has...

    The Stick it to Dish anyway you can thread !

    Looks to me like typical damage control responses from Dishhuggers. Tout the good, misdirect to the other hand but never, never, never, answer the real questions and complaints at hand. Reading what they are doing to the techs at the same time they are hosing the consumers it appears they are...

    Problem with recording "non-new" programs when set for "new" only

    Actually I do understand, and quite well. I also understand, though, that Dish isn't going to do jack about anything. They are like any other company now these days. They release half finished equipment and software and charge a mint for it. Until people actually get fed up enough and stop...

    Will you cancel Dish because of the new receiver pricing?

    Someone say dish pig? We're looking into OTA at the moment. The boss whom owns our rental is considering it as well. As for her business I hope for Dish Networks sake they don't slam them as well. I know of a number of hotels in the are that use them that are more than willing...

    Problem with recording "non-new" programs when set for "new" only

    I got all hot and mad about it too but I also knew Dish wasn't going to do jack squat about it except tell me to delete and redo the timers or swap the box for another bugged box. My blood pressure has enough problems without letting Dish get to me and bump it up any more than it already is.

    Problem with recording "non-new" programs when set for "new" only

    I had it happen a bunch a few weeks ago. We just deleted the shows and hoped for the best. The 625 we have is buggy as heck but we're waiting out the price hike to see what we'll do. We'll most likely go ota after all the funkyness of this dvr and such.

    Did someone ask about the Dish Network pig advertisements earlier? Have fun with them.

    YouTube Video from Dish

    I keep seeing ads for this really cheap programming offering Dish has but my bill sure as cain doesn't reflect that. Do a true side by side with normal bills then I'll be impressed. None of that 12 month offer jazz. After the price hike on my 3 year old receiver that has not improved in anyway...

    Dish Pricing Update

    Senate votes on it this week and Charlie thought if it's good for them he can pull it off too. Go figure.

    Dish Pricing Update

    Been nice knowing you Dish. See ya on the flipside. Once I drop this on my boss she may think about having cable run to the hotel instead of these jacked up rates. She has an 11 room joint with 15 receivers. I bet she drops them like a bad habit.

    Merry Christmas From Dish Network

    Charlie and Jim looked like someone was holding a gun to their head. It almost looked borderline painful for Charlie. I still don't get the free advertising bit. In the realm of corny commercials they went to a corn bake the night before they shot this one.

    Merry Christmas From Dish Network

    "We 'dish' you a merry Christmas," WTH? After we stopped laughing our arses off we wondered if it took them as long as it took to come up with this as the Dish Network apron.

    Duplicate DVR Events

    We've had this issue for the past week. It's popping off timers that are set to 'new episodes' only and yanking stuff as far back as 3 years ago in several instances. Frustrating as cain going through the dvr recordings pulling out the old junk.

    Installers made a huge deal about everything so I sent them packing ... now what?

    I thought you guys have an Installers Forum to bash the "custy's" in? From the original posters comments the guy rolled in with an attitude about the job. I'm sure a simple explanation about the changes that have taken place for installs since he was hooked up would have gone much further than...

    Installers made a huge deal about everything so I sent them packing ... now what?

    There are days I don't like my job. Days I have to do more work than usually required. Some days less than required. In my line of work I deal with customers every day. When I show up and it looks like a pair of two year old tornado's ripped everything to h-e-double toothpicks does it make me...
