    Reception Problems with HGTV

    Is anyone having problems receiving HGTV? About every 5 to 10 minutes, the picture will pixelate and loose sound for a second or two. I just had my dish realigned so I don't think it is an alignment problem. So far, I have only seen the problem on HGTV. I have a HR44 receiver if that matters.

    Channel is currently not available

    I had my directv service installed on July 5th and still get a message when tuning to an "on demand" channel that says the channel is currently not available. For example when I tune to channel 1000 I get a message that says "1000 (DTV) is currently not available". Also, when I select menu...

    Refer-a-Friend

    Today, I called and ordered Directv and was told I could take advantage of the refer-a-friend program because my dad has a Directv account. After getting off the phone, I realized that the AT&T representative didn't ask for my dad's directv account number. What should I do to make sure I get the...

    Suggestions for getting the best price

    I am currently a dish and u-verse customer and am considering switching to Directv, primarily because of the $75 / month price for the Ultimate package for 24 months. My parents currently have U-verse and DirecTV, but both services are billed separately because they started their service with...

    DirecTV Channel Listing

    Thanks for the info. I was planning on printing one out and having it laminated. Should I just call the customer service number (800-531-5000) listed on their webpage, or is there a better number to call?

    Does anyone know where I can get a printable channel lineup for DirecTV Choice Xtra package. I have tried printing the one on the DirecTV webpage but it doesn't print very well. I would like to find one that is a PDF file.

    Remote Control Problems

    Last week I switched from Dish Network to DirecTV and had 2 HR24/200 receivers installed. My problem is that I can't get either remote control to turn on and off my TV's at the same time as my DirecTV receivers. I know the remote controls will turn my TV's on and off by switching the mode...

    Hard Drive capacity in HR24

    I am going to switch from Dish to DirecTV and have a few questions. 1. What is the hard drive capacity of the HR24 receivers? Are there different versions of the HR24 that have different capacities? 2. I was told by a dealer that the H24 and HR24 receivers are exactly the same. The H24...

    Does the D12 receiver work with the whole home dvr service or do you have to have either a H24 or HR24?

    Qualified to install DirecTV

    I'm not really that concerned about the dealer, it's just when I went in to talk to the dealer, the salesman (not the owner) didn't seem to know much about the equipment. I would think a salesman would try to have fairly good knowledge about what he is selling. He didn't even know that on the...

    Qualified to install DirecTV

    I am planning on having DirecTV installed and was wondering how you can tell if a local satellite dealer / installer is qualified to install DirecTV? Does DirecTV has some type of certification program? My local installer installs both Dish and DirecTV and has been in business for many years...
