Loyal Dish customer longevity

[Mikeymax]

We know, we know, we need our heads examined indeed, Would anyone else be willing to speak up about being a loyal Dish customer for 25 years? Or how many years? This should be interesting?

For me it was about 19 years. Do I count?

Only 14 years for me. I am not leaving till Charlie quits me.

17 years, still the best DVR experience around. Although I wish they would not have gotten rid of the “Media” option that was on the Hopper 3. That was nice for playing my media server.

I remember in 95' when Charlie did a TV ad that somehow caught and reeled us in...

I started with Dish in 1998, switched to DirecTV for a couple years and been back with Dish since 2006.

24 years here. The only benefit I got was buying a LOT of stock at about $2/ share. But for others I would think some kind of "thank you" would be in order!

Yep 25 years and struggling. We've got 13 months left in our current contract...

Since 2003 here. Bought a Dish Network model 301, I believe it was, at Radio Shack. That makes me approaching 18 years now.

In 1995 we purchased at Costco what I remember to be a old 3000 receiver I think it was? Istalled/mounted the DISH myself and it took me days to actually get the signal LOL Back then we did not want pay for installation fees.

Yea shouldn't we get some kind of 25th anniversary perk? We purchased our first Dish Receiver (3000?) during the Christmas holidays of 1995. Folks will say how can that be when Dish did not start until March 1996. When we started with DISH, It was not called DISH yet. When we started it was only referred to as ECHOSTAR...

I like Dish and have no plans to go anywhere. I received a fair deal with only $5 more than I was paying for the last 2 years.

Just made 24 years last month. One year left on my price freeze agreement. Will reevaluate next January when I hit 25 years on 1/18/ 2022. about whether to keep them or go with online site for entertainment. I already have Tablo for ota and it can record 4 shows on 4 different channels at the same time. Add Slingtv and I could save some money and eliminate the Dvr fee and equipment fees.
