    Name Change on Account

    Wished I could. I'll be renting a house not an apartment. Already asked the landlord about a satellite dish. He was very vocal he didn't want a dish on his property period. Guess I'll have Comcast.:(

    Name Change on Account

    Taking my service with me is not an option. The landlord doesn't want satellite dishes on his rental property.

    Name Change on Account

    My wife and I are getting a divorce and she's getting the house. She wants to keep D* as her TV provider. So will I have need to completely close the account to take my name off of it and her open a new account as a new sub? If so, can she keep the current equipment or will she have to have new...

    Something Unusal.

    That's my guess too Jimbo. When I called them last month the first thing they said was "Not sure why that charge is on there, you do not have HD"

    Something Unusal.

    Looked at my bill online this morning and yet again D* is trying to charge me a 25.00 DVR fee. Does this happen to anyone else?

    Something Unusal.

    That's the only reason I have HD equipment. My locals was at one time on the 72.5 bird. Now they are on the 99 bird as far as I know.

    Something Unusal.

    I was on the phone with a CSR for 30 minutes Friday. He couldn't understand the change but he took it off and assured me by bill was correct. Got an e-mail to confirm it. So I go to pay my bill online today and the charge is still there. I did notice that the whole home feature was suddenly...

    Something Unusal.

    I know their has been changes to the programming and fees. For some reason my DVR fee went from $10 to $25. My equipment is HD boxes but I do not subscribe to HD. My locals are on the 99 bird. So does all of the sudden D* think I sub to HD because I have the HD equipment? I have a DVR in my...

    Receiver Question.

    Thanks Jimbo. I found a 18" dish at the local dump. Still had the LNB on it. Tested it on an old receiver that my parents have. The receiver has to be 15 years old. Worked just fine.

    Receiver Question.

    I'm wanting to buy a basic receiver to tailgate with. I found one on solidsignal.com. Do they have a good reputation? Would it be easier just to call D*? I think it's a model D12.

    Just saw a commercial, DirecTV may lose AMC and other channels, is this true?

    The D* page on Facebook is on fire. I guess the scare tactics that AMC is showing is working on people. I really wished people would get the other side of the story before they blast D*. I did see one person on there that knew the facts and AMC's history with contract negotiations.

    Just saw a commercial, DirecTV may lose AMC and other channels, is this true?

    Good point Chad. Their would always be that one company that would bow down to them. Now I know things have changed since I had D* last(which was 1999)more channels added etc. but back then I had everything D* had to offer except the premium channels and my bill was 42 dollars and change. Just...

    Just saw a commercial, DirecTV may lose AMC and other channels, is this true?

    Not sure if this is how everyone else thinks. Myself, I'd love to see the 2 satellite companies and cable companies to come together and draw a line in the sand on all this corporate greed. Tell THEM what they will pay them and if they don't accept it oh well.

    Just saw a commercial, DirecTV may lose AMC and other channels, is this true?

    I had E* when they had their spat with AMC. If I remember correctly only 2 or 3 episodes were not shown before their new contract was finalized.

    Satellite Sales Tax?

    Guess everyone has to have their hand in the cookie jar these days.

    Satellite Sales Tax?

    Just happen to look at the breakdown of my bill. My state(Tennessee) has a Satellite Programming Sales tax. Does every state have this? They got me for $5.53 on my last bill.

    Tailgateing Question

    Onne more question. I have a HR24 in my bedroom. I found a slimline dish at my local dump with no lnb. I've saw a lot of those SWM lnb's e-bay. The back of the dish I found has the exact elavation and tilt as the one I have installed at my home. So my question is,how hard will it be to aim with...

    Tailgateing Question

    Can you still use an 18" dish to pick up the 101w bird? I have a D12 that I was going to tailgate with next month when the TN Vols started playing great SEC teams. Without having to use Mpeg-4 receivers.
