is this ownership? cant be, must be rental.

WOW! I wonder if this comes with the 30" dish and MPEG-4/WM9 plug-in module? Well, it looks like VOOM is going to get more subscribers...who aren't going anywhere soon.

I'll take my VOOM order with a large Peking Duck and a side of Lo Mein.

Yes. Lease... I forgot to add that information.

 

[vurbano]

Yes. Lease... I forgot to add that information.

That promotion will have to stay in place IMO for Voom to make it.

Sean, what does "With one package" mean?

 

[Sean Mota]

Sean, what does "With one package" mean?

Either VOOM Basic Package or Vavavoom. It does not say anything about the carrying the plus packs.

 

[DarrellP]

Please verify the fine print: Is it still $5/receiver/month + $9.90/month lease/receiver?

 

[Neutron]

Sounds odd. You pay something up front just to lease it and have a one year committment. On a lease????

Seems like the upfront charge is for installation

 

[Dvlos]

They need to do this even through the 1-800-GET-Voom channel, sound ludicrous to not start locking people into a contract. Major smart move by Voom. I swear I believe this forum somehow influences Voom.

 

[Neutron]

Still, a one year committment and an early term fee on leasing satellite equipment? DISH doesn't do this.

 

[Sean Mota]

Neutron,

I don't understand dish does the same thing. Which part dish does not do?

 

[Neutron]

Their leasing program doesn't require a one year committment and an early term fee. They used to but not anymore.

I'm not by any means trolling, especially since I have Directv and not DISH, but this lease deal with Voom doesn't make sense.

 

[Sean Mota]

Wait it minute I was in a DISH home plan that required a payment if you fall out the one year commitment.

 

[Sean Mota]

True that now they don't require it but they used. I do not think VOOM can afford to have the no commitment option. Too many people wanting to see what it is to just leave in less than two months.

My parents have Dish and they got into a 3 room deal with a 2 year commitment at that time.

 

[DTV TiVo Dealer]

Here is the actual VOOM promotion that started today:
These deals requires a 1 yr. programming commitment.

1. Purchase option;
Subscribe to any VOOM programming package of at least standard package for $49.90/per mo. and get a one room HD VOOM system installed for $349.99. That's a savings of $150.00.

Additional receivers can be added for only $249.99, that's a 50.00 savings per additional receiver for up to 2 additional HD STB's. To take advantage of this offer to subsidize these additional receivers you must agree to a 1 yr. programing package of VA VA VOOM or higher.

2. Lease option;
Get the same $150.00 credit for a 1 yr. programming commitment of at least the standard VOOM package of $49.90/per mo. So you're cost is only $49.99.

Additional receivers are no charge as your $50.00 credit per HD STB pays for the lease down payment, which is normally required. VA VA VOOM is required for 1 yr. to get additional receivers at no charge. The normal $9.50/per mo. per STB charge applies.

This deal ends on 9/30/04
