Dish website package listing snafu - fixed.

[nitstalker]

yeah here is an interesting one... the link-to channel info pages are gone too IE:

Discovery Kids: It Works http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/programming/channels/index.asp?NetwID=50358

MSNBC: It works
http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/programming/channels/index.asp?NetwID=50219

BUT The channels in question:

MTV - Interesting Error
http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/programming/channels/index.asp?NetwID=50371

ESPN - Same
http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/programming/channels/index.asp?NetwID=50378

Interesting huh?

As lonmg as Sci-Fi and Speed stays in Top 120, I don't care, though I'd welcome meaningful a la carte packages.

I just checked the other site and there is not even any mention of this.

You mean there is other sites besides SatelliteGuys.US?

The other place seems to be dieing a quick death. I just checked their stats and they only had 634 Online while at the same time we have 1,403 online.

(They also are playing kiddie games by blocking my IP, but I keep getting in anyways)

Thanks for your comments and Welcome Home to SatelliteGuys!

Wow I guess this time Dishnetwork's web site "SUCKED". Maybe the extra channels got sucked off of the website too.

You can use TOR to get around the IP blocking

Perhaps Dish is going to introduce a new low end tier without the "expensive" channels. They could be fixing up the web site for it and accidently introduced these bugs. If the produced stripped down AT30 with locals for $20/month I bet they could get a lot of new subs.

SUCKED is putting it nicely... I think they had a group of Junior High Nerds put it together... Havent they ever heardof Graphic Design 101??? The Red Has Got To Go!!!!

 

[Mr Tony]

yeah...all PI, Religious & Shopping channels...theres 30 of them

Hey they used that red because "nobody else was using it"

They actually said this on a retailer chat.

Dish needs to fire their entire Marketing Department and hire me. I am the KING of spin.

Just got this from ceo@dishnetwork

Even if hopefully it turns out to be a website error, why would a CSR also say ESPN will be sold ala carte for $3.25. If that is also incorrect, dish really needs to fix the crap that is spewed out of CSRs mouths...

no kidding, if it is a website error, which it appears to be, who is in control of what is coming out of CSR's mouths???? they must have a pool for who can cause the biggest case of chaos

I'd love to be able to purchase ESPN ala-carte for $3.25/month...hope that part is true.

ESPN lost the NHL to OLN.(comcast). Rumour has it that Comcast is gonna bid on the MLB contract ESPN currently has (and put the games on OLN) If things keep going the way they are for ESPN Ther wont be an ESPN worth watching any more..(maybe Charlie E knows alot more than we do)

OK.. I know.. Wrong thread, but I have to ask.

WHEN DO WE GET OLN IN HD???

 

[bpasker]

LOL, as soon as someone wants to watch deer hunting in HD. Although I'm going to sadly miss my NHL in HD.

I have three long standing rules when it comes to Dish CSRs.

1. Don't believe anything they say.

2. Don't believe anything they say.

3. Don't believe anything they say.

Scott since you have an in with Dish can you see what is happening with ESPN2 HD, ESPNU, and CSTV? Man football season is just days away.

 

[BabaLouie]

Scott has an in with Dish? Hey, Scott, see if they'll go for this: The name of this site gets changed to "Dish.US", and all the members get 10 years free service....
....On the other hand, if the free service consists of only a stripped-down basic package with PI and shopping channels, maybe we don't want it....

 

[NightRyder]

Wow...4 pages generated off an obvious web site F/U....It sure will be nice when the summer lull is over.
