    OK who has been a E sub the longest?

    I too started with the 3000 in I believe Spring of 97. Put up with their horseshit until last spring '09 and finally wised up. I was sort of like quitting smoking - once I got them out of my system I felt a whole lot better.:)

    I finally dropped Dish and they even have to aggravate me on the way out.

    In fairness to Dish, I did call them back and the CSR told me not to worry about returning the LNB. Also, when I asked her about the 2nd receiver since they only sent one box, she asked me to read her the numbers on the back of the one I had packed in it and then said that was the only one I...

    I finally dropped Dish and they even have to aggravate me on the way out.

    Without going into my whole 10+ year history with Dish that led me to this point (many of you vets have endured my complaints too many times:)), I just wanted to announce that I have finally left Dish Network after having been an AEP + all HD customer most of my tenure. Through all my...

    Team Summit Report

    I agree and as long as this isn't just lip service, this is a significant shift for Dish in the right direction.

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    Besides, it's not always about the money. You can't always put a price on how good it feels sometimes to just stop supporting the BS for a while. I realize some of you haven't a clue about what I'm talking about and that's fine but for those that do, :up:up.

    Time for Charlie to resign!!!!!

    Hey, the natives are restless - how dare you try to calm them with the voice of reason?:D That said, I finally decided to empower myself a little and put principle ahead of money. I have switched the majority of my programming from Dish to cable. I had to draw the line and stop supporting a...

    Cheapest way to get just HD LiLs and as little else as possible.

    Ahhhhhh, the refreshing sound of someone paying attention.:)

    Cheapest way to get just HD LiLs and as little else as possible.

    Since my first complaint to executive offices a month ago bore no results, I sent them a new e-mail yesterday basically saying to either drop me to only HD LiLs or if that wasn't possible, cancel my account all together. I received a call in about 20 minutes. In a nutshell he added the classic...

    Caught Dish in a lie

    Not to negate that Dish can and does lie on occasion but that's not what I'd classify that as.

    Cheapest way to get just HD LiLs and as little else as possible.

    With Dish's latest programming combination schemes, what's the cheapest way to keep HD LiLs, at least one 622 but as little else as possible? For 10 years I've put most of my TV $$s into Dish, w/ AEP + HD + LiLs + SS and supplemented a little with cable but now I'm seriously thinking of...

    Charlie Chat will have a "Fox" theme

    it ain't me babe.......:D

    Stuck with Dish waiting for Foxnews. They have failed their promise. See ya.

    I'm seriously debating switching or at least cutting back to as small a package I can get and still keep the HD LiLs I have. I sort of feel like I've really been compromising my soul for a better HD-DVR. And that's really all it is. I have 2 other options, both of which carry more of the HD...

    FOX NEWS HD - Where are you?

    Dish sheds 102,000 subs and reports a Profit

    In viewing your comments lately Scott I must say I'm curiously impressed with what appears to be your epiphany of sorts regarding Charlie and Co.

    What packages New HD will be in ?

    If FoxNews-HD is any indication, none of them.

    A Dish oversight, intended confusion or deception - you decide.

    I'm sorry, I thought I was being pretty clear it was an attack on Dish. I wasn't intending to conceal that point at all. Again, I apologize if I wasn't clear. I started this thread because I don't like the way Dish has handled their restrictions of the Fox News HD feed to some customers. Is...

    A Dish oversight, intended confusion or deception - you decide.

    and then there's always that voice of intelligent reason shining through the fog, without which we'd have no idea what was good for us. Thank you oh wise and unselfish sage.:o

    A Dish oversight, intended confusion or deception - you decide.

    I know, and that's why it's so insulting. If that was true, Dish could clear it up in minutes with a simple statement couldn't they? That's one of my frustrations with them, they'll "imply" something (often through Scott) that they know is misleading just to create false hopes. Again...
