This was in regard to the improper listings on the EPG for the Voom10, can you believe this response?

geez calm down, they have only been running for a little bit! Yes it is a canned answer, but give it a little time
 
They do not program the guide info, it comes from a source, like Zap2it, they are the ones mixing up the guide. both voom and Echostar are looking at them to fix it. They probably turn on the canned replies because they are tired about being bugged about something that they are well aware of.
 
Generally speaking I've received a canned reply first, then at some point later I received a proper human written email.
 
This is the part that really irked me: "we can not promise this will ever be implemented".

Good news, the EPG has actually changed info from this morning, has the correct movie playing and on top of that, I saved 10% on my car insurance by switching to Geico.
 
Around the first of the year the EPG for OPRAH on our local station was off for a few weeks. My wife emailed E* and got the canned response, but a few days later it was back in sync.
