    Dish just lost another Hd customer

    It's amazing that you guys could understand the OP. I speak & read american english, not redneck meth head or mexican or cuban or french canadian. WTF is wrong with people? Why the hell would you lease an apt. where you expect to have to terminate the lease anyway? I think someone is...

    Dish Locals Shutdown and DirectTV

    I think you are all getting ripped off. I would never have dish after having them f me over as a subcontractor for 18 months. I haven't had D* since my TiVo R10 hard drive died. Local stations are nutty for asking for ANY money from anybody other than advertisers. If they get paid for me to...

    DISH installation - removal of D* dish

    The last thing that installer wants to do is remove that dish only to have you balk and bitch until he puts it back up. This is something the installer has to judge. We've all been stabbed in the back by customers. Most of us repeatedly. That said, the only people I ever turned down were...

    Canceled Dish Today... And dish didn't care

    I wouldn't be complaining about that. XM made me jump through some dog and pony show hoops to disconnect 1 of 2 radios. I very nearly disconnected both because of that BS. Jeesus, it was one radio. Let it go!

    Likelihood of failure of non-burial grade coax?

    Most installs pay less than $100. So what? They should do it for free?

    Likelihood of failure of non-burial grade coax?

    Fellow techs, this is why you do not do anyone favors. #1: The QC guy generally does not know the customer said he'd bury the cable. In my experience that rarely happens. I can't hide that in the pix for you, nor am I even interested in covering your ass. #2: They stab you in the back for...

    Likelihood of failure of non-burial grade coax?

    I've never seen one fail because it was non burial rated. I have pulled up many runs to find splices and chew marks from moles.

    Directly Calling or "walk-in service" at a Call Center

    As well they should be. Satellite customers don't want anybody to make any money these days, though. Really, what is wrong with paying for a service that you recieve?

    Need Advice - Dish Accidentally Trying to Steal My Receiver

    Cash can't be charged back or stop paymented like a cc/check transaction can. That's incentive enough right there.

    Dishnetwork MANDADTES Incompetance

    I don't know about that. I don't work at mickey d's and it seems like everytime I go in a fast food joint or movie theater, I get stuck behind the douchebag that got in line WITHOUT knowing what he wanted. Personally, I hang out to the side if I haven't decided. No need to hold up the process...

    When will SE Arkansas ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX be in HD?

    Watch where you chucking stones or somebody might point out the cousin marrying utopia that is Rome, Ga. :eek: Rome Ga, the only town in america where you can find a trailer park full of trash, an honest to god barrio, a ghetto, and a country club, all on the same street. All within a mile...

    PPV bomb drops on Feb 1st

    Well, if you want one of those for free, mycokerewards still has the same 3 overpriced ones they've had since the program began for the low price of 13000+ points. That's over 4000 20oz cokes. :eek: For a product that is soon to be obselete. They should put it on clearance already. Who knows...

    The OP also forgot to mention that they are turning over all cellphone numbers to telemarketers and you have to get on the DNC list NOW to avoid it.

    Installer tells me it's illegal to install my dish?!?! HELP!

    Drilling a hole in an apartment is a no no. Its a fire hazzard. If my apartment got burned and the FD said it spread because the firebreak was compromised because of a hole you drilled, I would definately come after your ass. You are literally playing with fire because most renter's don't have...

    Installation problem solved, but...

    The reciever told you the problem. You don't mention what equipment you have at each location, so its kinda hard to help. Whatever dish you had at home needs to show up at your cabin. It sounds to me like you moved from a dish 500 to a dish 300, which would cause this issue. it probably could...

    apartment quandry

    I offer the unmentioned, yet ultimate solution: Buy a house. Then nobody can tell you jack about what kind of TV you can get, unless you go into a HOA situation.
