[Scott Greczkowski]

I am seeing some resports online that DISH is having some issues including with the phone system and their websites.

Anyone having issues?

mydish.com says site is down for me.

Same here in MD just north of DC. It says "server not found". Anybody have an IP address?

Who was in charge of writing the check?

Did DISH forget to renew their domain name. If I do a domain lookup I get "Unable to resolve "dish.com" to an IP address."

Hmm let me go login to my GoDaddy Account.... and I can be the new owner of DISH. (Sorry Charlie!)

www.isitdownrightnow.com shows dish.com has been down for about 9 hours as of 10:00am Central Time

The error I get when accessing the Dish website is: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

"DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error appears when the domain name system cannot resolve a website's URL into an IP address, making the web browser unable to reach the site."

(Probably just a name server error.)

Yes definately a DNS issue, although it appears their DNS is GONE as you can not do any lookups on it at all.

I can't even see my account info through my Wally. It just says it's unavailable at this time.

I am also hearing that their phone system is also down as is their internal employee system.

Just tried to call the regular DISH phone number. Recording says it is down due to technical difficulties.

I noticed today via my bank that I was charged for my bill on the 21st and it was reversed today. I did not make a payment nor do I have autopay set up so I figured I would go to the mydish website to check and see what it going on and the website does not work. I tried calling and that is down. I tried "my account" via the dish receiver and that is down as well. I also noticed no on demand content is available. Something is very wrong with Dish. The only thing that works are my dish channels.

Well, "technical difficulties" is better than "indifference and apathy".

Directv is trying to hack DISH. Only way they can eliminate their satellite competition.

I guess it's finally the apocalypse that so many on here have been predicting.................for the past ten years.

The Dish Tech 800 number reports "technical difficulties".

Maybe this is the major systemwide reboot required to get the Hopper Plus working.

"Dish Loses 268,000 Pay TV Subscribers in Fourth Quarter" should now read "Dish Loses Dish in First Quarter"
