    Recently returned DVR charged sales tax for shipping

    I canceled Dish and had to return the DVR, they sent the box with label. I sent it back UPS. Now I get a bill for the return $15.00 and $0.90 sales tax. Is it legal to charge sales tax on return shipping? Bad enough I had to pay to return their equipment but sales tax or just another Dish scam?

    Lost absolute now I have to pay to send their equipment back.

    I supposed you like the changes the lawyers are doing to consumers, all the right go to the people you buy from and we basically have none? If nobody complains it gets worse. When the lease on your car runs out do you have to pay to send it back? When the tell you they only offer the highest...

    Getting or moving movies

    I'm sure its been asked before but I cant find it. I decided to leave Dish when they canceled my HD only package. My only regret is I have a lot of movies archived to an external Hard drive. Is there anyway I can transfer the movies to my computer or the Direct TV recorder or my HD Tivo?

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I decided to go to Direct TV since they canceled my HD only package. I signed up during the first week they offered it with all kinds of promises it could never be cancelled and they would add all the (cheap) HD stations as they became available. So the first week they took away all the zoom...

    I have an external HDD on it. It does work if 2 shows are scheduled at the same time, both record. Its only if I try to view another channel with one recorder recording.

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    Many of us cant take our business elsewhere because after they sucked us in we had to sign a 2 year contract. Although they dumped 10 of the stations I signed up for I should be able to dump them right?

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    ksutart: I didn't make any decision on that. The weather channel wasn't even in the package when I subscribed it was one they added after removing what I did subscribe for, Voom. I never watch it anyhow. I get enough weather warnings over my local network programs. I was just making a comment...

    Commercial-free Channels ? (Non-Premium)

    The commercials are not nearly as bad as the new use of the splash over the bottem of the page for the first 5 min of the show after the commercial. Last night I was watching a show and after the commercial for their new show the posted a splash screen with more advertising of the same show then...

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    That's not everybody's complaint. I waited until they added the HD only package and it had the stations I wanted. I had not subscribed until they had what I wanted. So I signed up only to find out a lot of the HD wasn't really and 3 days later they dumped Voom which I specifically asked them...

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    Please tell me how could I have known that less than a week after I subscribed they would dump Voom, and how could I judge the picture until AFTER I got the receiver and took a few days to look at the stations.?

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    Tdillon: I saw Voom when it was a separate source I was a subscriber long before they went down. I still have the Voom receiver. Notice I said I think. They are cartoons and there is not much content or detail so I can only say it looks better than sd but I don't watch cartoons anyway. So its...

    Where is the HD I subscribed to?

    Today at 1:30 PM I decided to see what I had subscribed to with the HD only package. I looked at the HD channels I get not including all the sports. Here is what I found. This took a long time since 90% of the channels changes landed me in a commercial, which I think takes up more than the...
