    Cancelling Dish Network service

    I had DirecTV from 95-2001, then Dish until 2015, tried Comcast for about a year and tired of all the outages, worse than rain fade on satellite, which is at least predictable. Went to DriectTV and was fine until the usual jack up price of $50 with no real deals to keep me. Went back to Comcast...

    Curious why you are all leaving Dish? Cord cutting or on to something different?

    after 15 years, i really dont get much

    So I was with Dish 15 years and the real deals came after the disconnect after I had Comcast installed before they shipped me the return boxes. Too late at that point. Problem is Comcast has more outages than Dish rain fade so now I need to decide between DTV or Dish. Dish has H3 with better...

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    Well that could be true, but would be very arrogant of them, but that is their choice.

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    At this point not sure Dish is worth it, their attitude, constant blackouts and inferior PQ. The real appeal was the Hopper 3 and I am used to being dumbed down by the X1 from Comcast now for 8 months so that the Genie will be a step up. The real plus for H3 was the 2TB so that I could record...

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    So got back from ATT store, Select package with locals and two TVs and 45mbs down Internet with no data caps for $100 a month locked for 24 months and $100 Visa gift card. $21 install charge and both installs are same day. Credit check was fine and no hassles. I just wish Directv Genie had 2TB...

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    Only once in 15 years did I complain and get a lower rate, also in 15 years every bill was early.

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    And when I go to their web site and select everything and say I have excellent or good credit it does not attempt to charge me for the H3. Only if I say Average credit (which an 800+ score is not average) does it want $50 up front. So clearly they have an issue with their system. I just checked...

    Dish can go F$@% themselves

    so I was a customer for 14 years, gave them over $15K over that time. I left 7 months ago because is was sick of the nickel and diming and got a good bundle from Comcast. Well in 7 months of Comcast I have had more outages and interruptions. Than all the rain fade over 15 years with Dish. So I...

    Eastern Arc vs Western Arc yet again....

    Cool I am in Cobb as well. Then maybe EA will be the answer. WA may work still for a while, but I get nervous with my neighbors tress, with EA if tress become an issue they are mine and down they will go. Why does H3 require a single Dish? I was actually hoping they would keep one pf the WA...

    Eastern Arc vs Western Arc yet again....

    I was a dish subscriber over 14 years and moved to Comcast about 7 months ago and give up. Comcast DVR is junk compared to Hopper and while Comcast PQ is far superior the outages are killing me. Another 4 hour outage yesterday. I don't think all the rain fade outages over 14 years have added up...

    Comcast never activate their external disk port, very sad.

    Thinking of coming back, but, some questions plus eastern arc vs. western arc

    I left out th reliability, I have had more Comcast outages in 7 months than with 15 years of dish. Dish I only get occasional rain fade during bad storms, but fees are getting crazy. Just chatted with th m, flex package with locals $49, DVR fee $15, protection fee $8 so $72 for their package to...

    Thinking of coming back, but, some questions plus eastern arc vs. western arc

    So I was with Dish for 15 years after 7 years with Directv. I finally was fed up with signal fade and the rising fees. Comcast struck me a great deal for Internet and cable TV that was hard to refuse. First think I noticed was the PQ on Comcast is far better than Dish, The other thing I quickly...

    Dish, DirecTV Team to Tackle Set-Top Proposal

    Dish, DirecTV Team to Tackle Set-Top Proposal

    . Fees are only part of the problem, features are the other. I left Dish 5 months ago after 15 years to go Comcast and you could not pay me to buy the X1 DVR, literal junk! Even the cheap bundle pricing and very good PQ have me thinking about having some tress downed and paying more for Dish...

    Hopper 3 Monthly Charge

    While the Xfinity DVR is junk it is hard to argue against the bundling with Comcast. Ironically I had called Dish to tell them I was thinking of leaving and they said sorry I was unhappy. When I cancelled not much effort to keep me, next day I got a call from a special team wanting to know why I...

    Hopper 3 Monthly Charge

    The Dish fees are what drove me away. I miss the Hopper, but after 15 years being with Dish I was tired of paying so much for so little, and I turned to the dark side of Xfinitiy.

    DISH Makes offer to buy Sprint (Rescinded)

    I don;t think they wanted a direct rival to Netflix, they are leaving that to Amazon to make a play for. I also think that is why they did not go direct for Netflix, because I think that would have woken the sleeping tiger (Amazon) to get more aggressive with a subscription streaming other than...

    DISH Makes offer to buy Sprint (Rescinded)

    BB was doomed, in today's world most people are not going out of their way even by 100 feet to get a video when Netflix will mail it to you or stream it to you. I have been with Netflix over 4 years and never gotten a shiny disc from any b&m or even redbox.

    EHD on hopper drops off?

    Oh right and I bought my V6 so I can only use 3 cylinders at a time, how stupid is dish for that. Give me 3 USB ports and I I need OTA, Sling and EHD, but only pick one to use! I love this hopper, but these companies are so damn short sighted.

    New Hopper, EHD and Sling issues

    OK I have my hopper 2 days and am really enjoying it. Love PTAT, really is a great safety net if I miss a timer. I have a sling and noticed that with the Dish ipad app it is hit or miss. Often it can see the receiver, but shows no recordings, if I go back in later it looks fine. Other times I...
