You must now subscribe to Dish Family, or higher to receive BBMP

oh fudge.....should have added it the other day![]()
I guess I am grateful Dish allows us Welcome Pack folks to add ANYTHING to the account
Shaw Direct (Canadian DTH provider) has a basic pack called Digital Lite and you cant add anything to it
If they ever start advertising it, they can use the theme song from Welcome Back Kotter.I see that the Welcome Pack is no longer top secret on the website ...
I see that the Welcome Pack is no longer top secret on the website but the list of channels is different from one Iceberg posted a while back. My guess is that the standard list showing 61 channels is just everything you can get with a normal setup on 110/119. Is the longer list of around 100 channels including free channels (or duplicates) on the eastern satellites?
Maybe you should jump on it while you can.still shows as an option to add![]()
If you still own your equipment and can do the install yourself, you qualify for an "Activation Account". We would have to build the account under the AT120 and once it is built, it can be switched to the "Welcome Pack". If you need any help with this, just PM me and I will happy to help you!
no activation fee. If you buy the equipment and then activate it, the account is in essence a pre-paid as in you pay before it gets turned on. When I set up my account, since I did not give them my SSN, I paid the 1st bill right away. Now I dont know if this is still how it works but I know DIRT (DIsh folks like Mary & Matt & Zach) can't start the account with Welcome Pack. You get set up on Family (and pay like $26 to start) but the next day they can change it to Welcome Pack (and you have a nice $10-$12 credit then)![]()
Thanks Iceberg. That's what I wanted to hear!!!
I found a number of sites that sell a system for the Flex Pak. Most wanted about $300 for the equipment plus a $99 "Dish activation fee". Looks like I'll be doing some shopping on eBay.
Two more questions.
1.Would a system consisting of a 322 receiver and a Dish 500 with the Dish Pro dual lnb be a good match for this package (Dallas area)?
2. Can you use one of the $50 Friends & Family coupons with this?
Thanks again,
Ray
