Move or start over

[mbarnes]

I've been with Dish for something like 8 years. I've been a full-time RVer with a West Coast address. Over the years I've collected several dishes but have always used the original very old receiver (4700?) I bought at Sears in 1997. Now, I'm coming off the road and settling in Dallas.

My question is, should I tell Dish I'm moving and have them come in and put up a new dish and wire it in and get whatever kind of upgrade they will offer, or should I just cancel the old account and start allover again as a new customer? Which way might I get the better deal?

Thanks

BTW, I would like to get some type of hardware upgrade. The older receivers take forever to get the epg. I'd prefer to own my equipment. What's the best way to do that?

Yes you can ask for the dishmover install. By all means keep your account as is, right now your considered a "5 Star Customer". Keep that status. Since you've been with them that long - don't quote me on it but you'll most likely quailfy for some special deals.
