I am currently hearing from a lot of people that Dish is no longer allowing customers who move to a home with NLOS to get out of their contract, is this true?
Dish no longer allows customers that have NLOS to cancel out of contract.

I would doubt this hearsay very much. Continued reception is key to the Residential Agreement remaining in force.
That doesn't mean that you will not be obligated to an ETF but I doubt that as well. Professional installers aren't supposed to install systems that won't survive the term of the commitment.

Well...A high school friend of mine got a new job.It required him to move.He tried to do the dishmover plan.Installer came out and said sorry nlos.Dish socked him with ETF.Tried to get him to come here and register so he could contact dirt and possibly get it resolved but,he went ahead and paid the fee just to be done with it.
Ya ... I had a little similar situation ...
I wanted to upgrade to the Hopper ... but I would have got locked into another 2 years. I was okay with that.
The catch however is that my employment might have moved me to Canada, where it is not legal to have Dish nor would I have been able to get the signal (without extra-ordinary efforts like a larger dish ... bla bla bla). So I asked that if I ended up having to move out of the US, would it be an issue getting out of my contract. I was told that I would be required to pay an early termination fee. I was told they only promise service in the US. If I move out of country they do not promise that, so I would have to pay the ETF.
I thought it was kind of lame that if I did not have "line of sight" that I could not get out of my contract, regardless of "location".
Job did not work out anyway ... still don't have a Hopper though. Instead my 722 died and Dish gave me a 722K for free
Love the dual OTA! I'll sit with the 722K for a while ... out of contract of course.

Its SWM, your statement sounds stupid. When you sign a 2yr agreement, its a 2 yr agreement.
There's a distinct difference between forcing you to pay for services that you can't get and forcing you to pay to get out of a commitment. If you break an agreement with a wireless telephone carrier because you moved to an area that they don't serve, you can bet they're going to let you have it with both barrels. Same deal (or worse) if you sign a two year lease on a rental home.
I was waiting for that lame response to come out.
I just like having evidence of a claim before I will go and believe it. Doesn't make me a DCDNW
For those that provided the evidence, thank you.
