I call when I see my bill go up. Actually, as I speak I am on the phone with D* talking to CSR. I had full intentions of switching to UVerse now that its available in my area because I am so sick of the "laggyness" and performance of the DVR's. I love the service itself but the hardware has...

Yes. I acted dumbfounded to find out I had to pay $100 more to see the NFL ST games in HD when I subscribe to the HD service, and directv does nothing but open an imaginary "gate" to let me see them. I told them if I can't have the games in HD for free, forget it, I would just not get the ST...

I called today to cancel my ST. (Before reading on here actually) I explained my team (Steelers) is out of my market, but will have a ton of nationally televised games, so I cannot justify the cost. She gave me the $20 off for 6 month deal right away, and I jumped on it. I am still getting...

I have it free for three months right now. After that, its done.

For the last couple of years I have been getting D* to give me the new customer offers when I have asked. Particularly the Sunday Ticket deals. I just tell them that "AT&T U-Verse just became available in my area and they are knocking on my door every night because they see my D* dish in the...

I had horrible luck with the R-15... I went through 5 in two years.

Hey no problem! I believed those who said otherwise when I started looking at TV's this summer. Then my eye doctor recommended glasses for me for the first time in my life for distances. It has changed my world! Then I could easily see the difference of 1080 and 720 on a 32" TV. The...

If I am not mistaken, they do have stuff available in the 1080p format, but I have yet to see one because it is only available in the on demand. I can say for sure that D* has 1080i programming at 60Hz. My new Samsung TV displays the Hz as well as the resolution it displaying! :)

I just got a HR22-100 for free and free HD service for a year. The first guy was no help to me, but I called back and got a woman. Just flirt with the ladies a little bit, and you'll get what you want. Oh yeah... I use the excuse "AT&T U-Verse just came in my area and the salesmen are at my...

I just picked up a 32" Samsung last night from Circuit City. It was on sale for $150 off. I was debating between the 720p and 1080p, and ended up getting the 1080p. I know the debates are out there that it is not possible to see a difference of resolutions after 720p on a 32" LCD, but I am...

I just got a HR22 and notice it has 2 ports on the back for a network connection. My question is why 2?

I always call 1-800-DIRECTV, and when the Interactive Voice Respondant asks "why are you calling today"? Say "Cancel service". This skips over all illigitmant 1st or second tier customer service reps right to the top. The person speaks clear english every time, and they are very helpful and...

Go Green! :D

Because unlike radio, satellite's competition is restricted by cimmunities. (at least it is in my state). The cable companies have contracts with local municipalities so they are the only one's offered in that community. I can't get comcast in my area because Charter has the contract with my...

Well boys, I called and gave my story like I said earlier. I called D*, at the prompt spoke the words, "cancel service", (thanks icewolf)! :up Then I told the very nice lady, (almost unusually nice for a D* rep), that U-verse just came in my area and is breathing down my neck with...

I was just on the D* website to pay my bill and noticed that they have the same deal going as they did last year for Sunday Ticket. If you sign up for ST, you get the premier package for free for 4 months. This is a deal for new customers, but last year I called in and got the deal. I told...

Highlights are always there. I am sorry you have to be a Lions fan. I grew up in a family of Lions fans... (I live in Michigan). I was a kid in the Barry era, so I naturally was a fan. After Barry left and the demise of the franchise I evolved into a team I have always liked by my own...

Hey Jimbo, I cancelled my Sunday Ticket this year. Unless they come out with some deal like they had last year, I won't be signing up. As a Steelers fan I just figured that since the Steelers have the toughest schedule in the NFL, and with all the premier NFL teams they are playing, we...

If your not so cheap why don't you cover my ST expense this year? :D I have a household income of $90,000. But I have a mortgage, student loans, one car payment, rising fuel prices, $5,000 in credit card debt, $200 a month into savings for 2 kids' college educations, and $400 a month into my...

Ha! I was thinking the same thing! Gosh, I love football! But it will be fun to do the camping, swimming, bike riding and other summer activities too!

I called and canceled it today. Perhaps if they come out with a sweet offer before the start of the NFL season I will order it again.

I am on the fence right now. If Super Fan is a no charge for all or at least HD subscribers, I might keep it. It is still hard to swallow $250 though. I make good money, but still... my wife will be giving birth to our second child in October, I am gas prices keep going up, our home heating...

Dude... you can put your slingbox at my house and watch the Lions as much as you want. If your still a Lions fan after all these years of letting Ford get away with allowing Millen to destroy what very little pride the franchise had, you deserve to get paid to watch it. Its the least I can do! :D

Its showing up on my account too. I also noticed on D*'s website they have the early bird offer for ST for four payments of $53, saving $20 off the regular price. The Superfan info says its unavailable, so perhaps D* is in the midst of discussing what to do with it... like hopefully offer it...

I think almost anyone could call in and argue with a csr until they check with their "manager" and get the HDDVR for $99.
