2 days after switching my package to HD Absolute my Dish it Up price went up 50 dollars on everything. I guess I am no longer a 5 STAR customer since I cut my bill by 50 dollars a month. Instead of 75 dollars for a 722 it now says 125. I thought it was funny how quick it changed.
 
Sure they were not quoting the INSTALLED price?
 
My 722 was $125 installed, $75 if they just shipped it (had to already have a 1000.2 or 500 with wing installed). Hmmmm, my new DIU for a 722 is $200 installed. No way I'd pay that. Hard to keep up with all these changes. I've had the 200 package or its equivalent since August 1998. It appears as though one either has to go through the CEO office or Retention in order to get the best deal. This is the type of thing that'll really piss subs off when they learn other subs got better deals. I wonder if this is a smart way to do business.
 
Please don't quote CEO deals here. Everyone will call wanting freebies! When you get something like that, I was told to keep it quiet. And since Dish monitors this site, I would suggest you do the same. That is, if you want that kind of treatment in the future!
 
ANd there is your example jmjunkin!
 
It's not offensive. You have misunderstood me. I'm happy that you got the deal. I've had a similar experience, but won't get into the details here. My point was, don't ruin a good thing for yourself. I'm a firm believer that the more money you spend, should entitle you to things free or at a discounted price compared to what others spend. I too spend a lot,$152/month. I think Dishs' biggest problem is, that they spend more $$$ on trying to make new customers happy, rather than $$$ on existing subs, like us, who have been keeping them afloat for over a decade!
