    What do I do with my VOOM receiver?

    I quit before the very end, but I had disconnected the stb's before I called Voom to cancel....so they never hit my boxes.....I tried one on 3rd tv just for local digital channels and IT WORKS SO FAR! Sure hope there isn't a time bomb in it! Also hope they abandon them.....

    VOOM was a great deal!!!

    I agree about Voom and it having been a great deal....it's sad to read about these Dish guys trying to defend their sat. company when I complain......they'll never know what we had....so they can't understand us being so unhappy!

    $100 for New Dish to get 10 Voom channels? No way!

    $110 Too Much I agree that the $100 is too much, they should be offering this in their HD pack as far as I'm concerned. I have one of those super dishes....they said I'd still need another dish.....I guess that superdish isn't so super after all.

    VOOMERS already switched to another Satellite service (not Cable), happy with HD?

    Joined Dish I went with Dish, mainly because I had no experience with Sats. except Voom. I heard bad things about both Dish and Dtv....but Dish wanted the least up front money for me. There HD is OK I guess....I got the Everything pack with all the premium channels. I don't like their...

    ?? So if I disconnected the boxes from the phone and sat. before I called and canceled....I wonder if they'll still work for OTA? Only time will tell I guess, they may pick them up.

    Do we PARTY?

    So are we going to look like fools if we plan a superbowl party and invite friends and family over to watch the game in HD and it ends up that we have to cancel the party before the game because our Sat. provider pulls the plug! Can't VOOM let us know something.....because not knowing sucks...

    The End of VOOM?

    What About? What about the boxes, dishes, and antennas? I wonder if they will abandon all the equipment and if so will we still be able to receive local HD channels through it? Or will they kill the box on the way out the door? :mad: I hope we get news soon as to what's really...

    Getting new software V726, are you?

    ID Problems This appears from the post that this feature works for some, some it doesn't, and some it doesn't work correctly......why can't Voom get this right? It's a feature that's been around for years! Maybe they can ask Ma Bell ?

    Getting new software V726, are you?

    Must I have a pin installed for the caller id to work? If so where is that? I enabled the caller id in the settings, then rebooted the box, then called home and I got nothing....it does have a phone line, but I also tried to reort back feature and was unable to be successful there also. Any ideas?

    2005 Yeah I think we're all going to be in for a surprise at the end of the year! A BAD surprise! The pricing I have now $85 per month is all I can afford....I know that much! I agree also that we were supposed to get all channels added to VaVaVoom until 2005..... I guess they forgot...

    VOOM: Promo Gone! New Prices...

    New Prices Too Much! I just heard about this.....I too would never try Voom for the prices their offering......I did it because of the $0 price down and free install.....otherwise I'd be with DTV. After the end of the year if my prices go up....I'm afraid I'll have to look at DTV even if...

    Voom no longer lets you wait on hold...

    No One Calls! Same here, I called for help with my bill....got the message....and no one ever calls.......called back a few days later and got a real person! This isn't a good policy...I believe I'd rather stay on hold A LITTLE LONGER....we should at least "HAVE THAT OPTION!" :mad:

    new policy at Voom - if you downgrade VAVAVOOM no more free plus pack
