I'm helping out a friend reduce their programming costs. For some reason, Dish has hidden HD costs on the programming page.
I did a chat with a Dish agent (yes I know, big mistake). I asked about the availability of HD with the Welcome Pack and Smart Pack and she indicated the lowest cost plan that included HD versions of the channels was Dish America.
So I have three questions:
1) Is HD now included in all Dish programming plans?
2) What is the lowest cost plan that offers HD channels?
3) How hard is it to get the Dish Movie Pack for 1/2 off? I've had that offer for at least 2 years by attempting to remove it from my account, then getting the offer automatically. I do this every year. Same for the other premium packages.
As an aside, my friend's bill summary shows $8/mo for the protection plan yet when I go to the Ala Carte page, it is not checked, so I can't eliminate it from her account. Does this seem normal? Do you need to contact Dish to get it removed?
