Dish Protect Question

[Jim5506]

Does Dish still charge a penalty for dropping Dish Protect too soon?

I believe you have to pay for 6 months.

It's different in different places. In IL there is no recidivism, no set amount of time you have to keep it, so you can use it and drop it right after the tech leaves.

I think it is a State thing. CSR told me Texas is three months.

I want to say it was 1 month in NC,but I have slept a night or two since then.

We did a dish mover 2 months ago and last week I had to have a tech come and move my dish because a large pecan tree in the back yard was effecting 61.5. Had to take a Dish Protect to avoid $95 tech visit. Looks like here in Texas I'll keep it for 3 months.

Double check with CSR. Dish may have reduced it to one month. Let us know what they have to say if you call them.

It's a $30 fee if allowed by your state. I just canceled mine and did have to pay the $30 fee. It's also spelled out in the terms of the agreement. If you were trying to save money on the $95 technician fee, and you're canceling after a month, you're still saving a good amount of money.

I had to do the same, but due to a roof replacement. The new tech didn't point it as well, and I lost 3-4 points on all my transponders.
