    Rude Installer

    Could be the guy was just not talkative. Some aholes think they are paying for you to be their buddy for the day, and get sand in their twat if you are all business. Me? I can hang out with you OR I can work. I DO NOT get paid to be your booty buddy, so leave me alone and let me work. Kthnksbye

    Top Movies are a gyp!

    I hate to be a wet blanket, but people like you are the reason this stuff is available. What kind of sucker rents a VOD or a PPV when there exists netflix? I do not know the answer to this, but aparently, you shave with him. :D

    Flat Roof Dish Install

    It shouldn't move around as long as he didn't do this: LOL. And yes, that one moves around. I got us a pallet off the tire truck and put it out back, but some ghetto jackass stole it before I could take it up on the roof and put the dish on it. Firestone doesn't want to pay for a...

    DirecTV Scam

    Quick question. I was considering buying one of sadouns closeout tivos. My hard drive crashed last year and I never got around to fixing it. My plan was to take the hdd out of the new one and replace the POS one in my old tivo. I could also use a weaknees unit, but this only makes since if it...

    Installation Begins

    You sound like a jerk, and I feel sorry for that tech. He should probably replace the 11 year old cable, though.

    Will my installer take down a competitors dish

    Honestly, he wasn't out of line. I wouldn't have done it either. Every trip up the ladder has a chance to end in disaster, and I am not swinging my ass in the wind for free. So, unless it was directly in my way, it stays. Monopoles are always required.

    Pam spray

    do whatever you want. The idea is to get the water off the dish before it ices up. Snow won't be a factor if it doesn't have ice to stick to. If your dish is where you can reach it or hit it with a sprayer, you can de-ice it with windshield deicer, but we only get snow once every two years...

    Tips on getting installer to complete install

    Only until you (or your wife) change your mind. It almost always comes back to bite us in the ass. No offense, it is what it is.

    DirecTV Scam

    See, I'll never sign another commitment to save my life. I finally got out of my cingular/att contract and the first thing I did was dump them for tracfone. I used 72 minutes in december and had thousands of rollover minutes "expire." They were adament that the best they could do for me was...

    HD Installer wrong?

    Hee hee. That happened to me way back in the primestar days. Get there for a 3rd opinion, and the tree guy is there. Had to go back to the office because I was not installing jack until the trees were gone PLUS the guy wanted a roof mount he forgot to mention on the precall. When I got back...

    New Customer Questions about address and more

    Nobody said it was stealing. It does call into question your integrity, though. Not something I would be bragging about on the internet.

    Installer Gone Wild

    I agree. I moved out a dresser in a kids room and found a wad once. I went and got the lady of the house. I didn't touch it. The outside bill was a 20, and this was a high school kid. I figured he was dealing drugs (why else would he hide it under the dresser?) and I fully expected to get...

    Local DirecTV contractor to lay off employees

    No doubt they were dropped because they suck. Who are they gonna give the work to? DirecTech? More of the same! The guy who owns JBM as John B Mattingly is involved with DirecTech under the "alias" J. Basil Mattingly. And then there are 50 iterations of DirecTech and its all pretty shady. I...

    So I just got DirecTV

    C'mon. CableOne is a fine company. Nothing but the best. :rolleyes: It could be worse. Cox had a mass exodus in Bastrop, La when the plant manager found religion and decided it was up to him to save the world, starting with dropping MTV. :eek:

    "moving" question

    No moron, by moving, you are stealing from a lot of other people, too. If you are watching an out of market football team, by all rights you should be on sunday ticket, which means you are stealing from the NFL. But they are a big rich corporation, so they deserve it, huh? Tough for the...

    "moving" question

    I'm not holier than thou, I just don't appreciate you aholes doing that which could potentially trickle down on me should D* and E* get fined. They aren't breaking the law on purpose. Its because of you. Yet, if they get nailed, we all gotta pay. :D

    "moving" question

    I didn't say anyone was stealing. If you lie or cheat and gain from it, that is fraud. Plus, you cause D* and E* to break the law, potentially causing me problems. Yes, it is fraud, and they ought to require proof. A mortgage, lease agreement, utility bill, ect. You can argue day and...

    "moving" question

    It would be funny as hell if they started requiring documentation to change a physical address. IMO, that's the route I think they need to take. I have had many new customers having to pay up front (and getting pissed about it--which they take out on the most convienent target--the installer)...
