Purchased receiver fees

Where on Dish's site can I find the monthly fees for purchased receivers? I know that I have seen this before but can't seem to find it now. I know that I am being over charged for receivers that I own and had a CSR who not only argued that point with me but also denied that the first receiver is free. I asked to speak with a supervisor and after a long hold the same CSR returned to the line to say yes the first receiver is indeed free however the other which is a purchased receiver is what it is (exact quote). Again I asked to speak with the supervisor and was put on hold and after a couple minute wait the call was dropped. I'd like the link at the Dish site that shows the monthly rate on purchased receivers.

Thanks in advance
Tony

15 and 25$ for locals only? i pay 12$ for it, I tried to get them give me locals for free but you know how that ended. I am honestly getting tired to deal with dish and frankly any customer support. you get different story with each call half people dont know what they talking about.

I had rep from the "loyalty/retention number" try and tell me the "joeys" are dvr.... when there own site lists as non dvr box, it slave to h3 the joeys dont even have tunners it all functions of hopper 3

in 6month i will revist all this but frankly I can get spectrum cable tv 4 dvr box and similar channels maybe lose few here and there, and pay over 50 less monthly and that would internet+cable tv bill.

Think only reason why i got 10 credit for 6 months cause they didnt want give discount on the h3 i own, was cause I told her i was with them for 25+ years and i and i would be pay less if if i just drop them. and all there "contract" would result in my paying MORE month not less. cause 40$ off cant be combined with contract accord to them.

Food for thought, Before i got hold of last person from loyatiy I was supposed to get called back from supervisior from loyalty, in reguard to this that superviser never called back i was also told loyalty number dont have lines to supervisors or ability to transfer to them which why they would call me back. Again diffrent story each time you call and each person you talk too.

Dish loss customer faster then gaining the, like most cable/sat providers. instead of lowering prices so people stay they raise them so people that have been loyaly for years just leave. sooner or later that mentailty is gona backfire

Read the fine print about Spectrum ( I have them for broadband), you get charged $21.99 for locals, another $5 for a sports fee, then your box charge ( which you can avoid if you use a Roku, but then you will get charged a Cloud DVR fee if you want one), then all those extra fees and taxes.

I get the mailings all the time, $54.99, then I read the fine print, with all the above, it would be $25 more the the $65 I pay You Tube TV which includes locals and DVR at no extra charge.

That would actually save me money. I already have Spectrum's Roku app for a cheap $20 basic package that does not include locals. So, unless the additional fees and taxes for adding locals would add up to around $5 or more, it looks like I could bundle and get everything from Spectrum at a lower price.

On the other hand, maybe this is why I don't want to bundle everything with Spectrum:

This has been happening all day, which I hadn't realized when I posted earlier. My dad told me he was having problems, so I checked and sure enough, the Spectrum app on my Rokus has the same error.

Pretty much as soon as I posted that, the Spectrum app started working again. Some channels were still glitchy, so I had to try selecting each channel multiple times to get it to actually start playing. That is still better than not being able to access anything at all.

Brutal review of Netflix's series Below

Don't know if any of you have watched this series yet, it would be interesting to see if you feel this review was accurate. It was very humorous to listen to however.

If the review is like the article, oi! Eighteen paragraphs into the review and... all they've done is not really talk at all about the actual thing they are reviewing.

Halfway into the "written" review, I know more about how the writer "thinks" than I do about what they are writing about. I understand their politics, their self-overestimated understanding of film, their inability to be funny.

Takes about 22 paragraphs to get to one that starts "Anyway, the story kicks off...". Talk about Slop! 😂

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

Here i am over a year later and just finished season 1. Not great but not as bad as I was expecting. Did not care for the barefoot captain stuff but overall ok. Actually looking forward to see what they did for season 2.

Yeah, the foot stuff was just nasty. I kept thinking of how dirty her feet would get traipsing around shoe-less. Funny, I love being shoe less at home and never wear shoes indoors in my home for long, but seeing her laying on all her furniture with her bare feet hanging out just kind of grossed me out.

There would still be dirt ,dust in the future I am sure. So walking around the station like she did she would get stuff on her feet. I am sure the robot vacuum is still going to miss stuff, with all those different alien species running around there.

Where is it going to come from -- specifically?

Why do you think cleaning technology won't improve in the next few hundred years? HEPA filtration was invented as part of the Manhattan Project.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that. ;)

Say, I don't wear socks or shoes in my house either. But for a captain in Star Fleet it looks bad to be walking around the academy with no shoes. Gives off 1960 Hippie vibes.

Song Name Game Part 3!

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....
