    Tempted to switchd to Uverse?

    I've had UVerse for a little over a year now. I pay $167/month for UVerse 400 and 24 mbps internet. When my credits ran out, I was able to get more to keep the bill at the same amount. Picture quality is not as good as Dish or Directv. The STB leaves a lot to be desired. If signal is lost, the...

    That's ok, I always forget to give your comments any serious thought anyways.

    DISH Fails EAS Test? No Perhaps the EAS Test Fails DISH!

    I heard that the EAS wanted 40 cents per subscriber to run their test, but Charlie was only willing to pay 39 cents per subscriber, so the test was pulled from Dish!:D

    99 cent VOD movies

    It's been in my Netflix Que since it was released and still has "very long wait". Usually I get pissed and tired of waiting and drive 10 minutes to Blockbuster.

    Dish Network is pissing me off......badly.

    Hey Bob, when gas prices go up, are you one of the morons that participates in the Gas strike Day? All of the years and its never had an effect. If Dish wants to quadruple sub prices every 3 months, that's their perrogative. Its your right as a consumer not to pay it. Bitching about it will...

    Dish Network is pissing me off......badly.

    You're the type of customer that ruins it for everyone else. Show us proof that you've churned your account 6 times in the last 10 years. The numbers don't add up. If you can't afford the equipment, then you don't need it. When you buy a car, 2 years down the road, when the newer model is out...

    Quick question about regional sports packages

    Yes they do. When I lived in Missouri, I watched my Cardinals on FS Midwest. Now, having moved to Little Rock and switching to cable, I knew I would lose out. But I havent. My cableco offers FS Southwest as my regional sports net, but, they also carry FS ST for the Cardinal games! You'd never...

    Opening day and no yankee game on tv

    ESPN360 is a good deal. I get it free with my cable. But I also get MLB Network in HD. The game is great if ur a Yankees fan!

    Dead HDMI replacement

    "You" despise replacing a defective receiver? Do you know how stupid that sounds? The whole point of having a 622 or 722 is for HD. So, why would anyone want to keep a receiver with a defective HDMI port? If you leased a new car and 2 days later the transmission went out, would you just leave...

    Grandma keeps losing the remote

    Coat the remotes with pine tar. It works for baseball players, unless she slings the remote really hard. Or trade the dog for a cat .:D

    The Limitations Of Satellite Rears Its Ugly Head

    Same problem here and I'm on EA. I missed the last 15 minutes of "House" and "Heroes" last night because of rain. And no repoint helps. If a bird flies over my dish and pisses, I'm out service.

    Locals working, Locals in HD not working

    It wasn't a dish pointing problem. My HD locals were down for 90 minutes earlier. The online tech said that they were aware of the problem and were working on a fix. He seemed to hint that I wasn't the only one,obviously, and that it appeared to be a problem at the uplink center.

    612 Reboot at exactly 3:00am

    Nevermind, I confused the "inactivity shutdown" thing.:o

    612 Reboot at exactly 3:00am

    Yes it does interfere with timer recordings. If mine is set and the reboot happens, during playback the screen is blank during the reboot time.

    I hate Dish Installers.

    I'm sorry you had a bad experience with an installer. Let me assure you, every install is different. I've had nothing but good installs. Most importantly, I would like to thank you for your commitment and sacrifices you have made in defending and serving our great country. Eight years ago...

    I hate Dish Installers.

    They're quasi-pinkos. They hate everything about this country and the military till they need them to serve their purpose. Same kind of asses that cry about the need for gun control. Guns are bad, till someone breaks into their house and rapes their wife, and they're forced to grow a set of...

    I hate Dish Installers.

    The man spent time in Iraq defending your freedoms and that's all you have to say to him? WTF is wrong with you and this country? On the anniversary of the most horrific day in our nation's history, you run your fat mouth like that? Did you stop to think before you spoke? I will not tolerate...

    I'm beginning to think that Dish receivers have great features but crappy quality.
