Update: Thankfully the buyer was great to deal with, return shipped the receiver back and never complained. The money was refunded to him and the original renter of the receiver/card will be getting his rented equipment back so that he can ship it back to Dish. He's basically out the shipping...

1. The website seems to say $200 for HD and $100 for SD receivers + $50 for the smart card if not returned. Anyone know if that's right? 2. What if buyer doesn't return equipment, I assume dish just charges original customer the fee from #1 above? 3. Is there a contact at Dish to discuss the...

Please answer the following if you know: Say someone doesn't realize they are renting a VIP211 receiver, and accidentally gives it + remote + smart card to a friend. Then the friend sells the equipment on ebay and ships it across the country after being paid via paypal. What is the original...

I'm not trying to pick on you, but if you got the "numbers from your boss" then you think the you could just relay the numbers instead of inflating them. I can't tell if you are making things up or what. We do have some sources referenced that show actual numbers. You have not provided a...

What's your source? So far it looks incorrect compared to what we've been seeing for years. If they mark everything up 4x like it would have to be with your original post here, we'd be paying a lot more than we do for our programming.

I guess with 14 foot high speakers you might be looking for louder. :) Joking aside, usually the settings on the home stereo will be what makes the signal change louder/quieter depending on the surround mode. I've seen the same with a 15 year old Yamaha and a 2 year old Onkyo. I end up...

We ought to start a thread that says: Post your bill line items and we'll show you how to save some money (Or just use this one)

Same thing happening here now in my area: "Free gun with satellite t.v. purchase"

Mine looks like a good DVD on my home theater. I play mine through my Wii, then Onkyo home theater, then to my HDTV. Maybe it's how you are setup. I have a 5.0MB cable internet service through wireless to the Wii.

We have offers around here "Free gun with vehicle purchase" and the like. It doesn't surprise me to hear that out of Hamilton, MT. If you're from this part of the country (at least not the bigger cities around) it's not unusual.

rob, I don't know all the details, but when I recorded programs from free previews and didn't start watching them prior to the channel dropping off my list of available channels, I couldn't start the playback. It may be a fluke, but I got the impression that if you recorded a program and...

Dave - that switch sounds like a good idea and keeps prices competitive if subscribers do this.

I hope TonyT can help you guys and maybe so with the non-LIN networks, but methinks efforts will be squelched if they go higher up with any LIN related channels... Good luck.

I forgot to say goodbye, so goodbye. It was fun while it lasted (the good pricing that is).

When we had a similar issue here with Fisher, I'm sure it was Dish not being willing to provide the data through for the OTA guide. Especially since one day in the middle of the dispute it started working normally, and then it went back to 'important info' again. I wrote both companies and all...

I downgraded all the way - and upgraded to NETFLIX via Wii, and it's excellent. It also costs less than adding a movie package with a sat. provider. It's much better than it was in the past and I recommend it.

I sure like having HD Disney back. :)

Depending on who he talked to in signing up, that does sounds right if you add in the tax for a sub-total of $198 + 6% sales tax. It's more than I paid, so it doesn't sound out of order. I got all those for $99 when I signed up. I coulldn't figure it out and gave up trying. I'm sending the...

Same thing happened here with Fisher. It's not going to happen until after any deal is reached.

I'm not reading this whole thing either, but you may want to check out this for a rebate that I wasn't aware of until after a few weeks with D*: https://www.web-rebates.com/directv/PDF/361-85/form1.pdf

As a customer having had both setups, I like the D* (2) HR-24 setup better. The media share between both receivers (4 tuners worth) has come in handy more that I thought it would. I tried to get the most similar setup when switching. There are a few things I miss, but nothing major now that...

For the $6 extra to have a 2nd receiver is worth it. That way you get 4 HD satellite recordings, and not limited to the OTA for 2 of them. Though it comes down to personal preference. They are not that dis-similar overall. So if the cost isn't swaying someone, the functionality is what would...

We ought to all hold hands in a gigantic circle that day, especially at 53 seconds after the time above!
