I certainly am not the 1st and know I will not be the last but I need to vent.
So I called to close my account not long ago (got dumped off to a closed dept trying to sell me DSL as I left the 1st try) and was told if I changed my mind the reactivation fee would be waived and was volunteered as to one offer I could expect if I came back. I was told my final bill would be here in roughly so many days.
OK so I made my final payment electronically through my bank after getting my final bill. Then yesterday I get a mean collection letter from their bill collector CBE about me being a deadbeat for not paying $17 & change. It's been less than 2 months since I cancelled!
After looking at the CBE phone number I see they have been calling me as well. I don't answer calls from numbers I don't know. No reason to.
FAIK this stupid thing could even be on my credit report now. Talk about a loser company! If they are apparently losing sleep over $17 I don't think I would take them back no matter how good the deal might be, especially if it involved a term committment.

S
just return the box and don't worry about it.
Now I know why they needed my $17 bucks so bad. To pay for some of that useless postage of sending empty boxes back & forth to fetch receivers that are already back in the warehouse.

This should hit a lot of folks with a dose of reality. I can only imagine how much more common this will get as AI progresses.
I read several stories on this and most are clear as mud. They say a lot of the stolen bitcoin has been "locked out" and that everyone will be made financially whole. I guess time will tell if either of these statements are actually true.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?
