DISH Network

We had been with cable for years and I could not begin to tell you how much better we have liked the dish-price is better, picture quality is better, and believe it or not, we have less problems with the satellite going out than we did with cable-and the satellite is usually only out a couple of minutes while it searches for new signal, where cable could be hours or more waiting for a servicer. more

I really love the numerous channels. I do not feel bored because I can always choose many! and what else, the signal is outstanding. more

The dish is good! I switched to satellite tv a month ago and it is totally different from cable tv. more

Ever since I moved out into my own place (about 12 years now) I have had Dish network. And for most all the years this satellite has been very good to have. I know people who have other providers, and I've tried theirs as well, but I am satisfied with DISH. more

The Ultimate TV experience! more

Every time I have had any question concern or request their response has been as fast as a giant company can be. Sometimes I have to go through the script readers for a real problem but really, they get the job done. They always will quote you a lower price than you actually want, but that’s capitalism for you. I am happy and satisfied. You just have to know what you want and ask questions. more

They’re very accommodating, flexible with payments, and give prompt attention with inconveniencing situations. more

We first got Dish Network in the year 2000. When we got it, we asked about cancellng. We were told there would be no issues of cancelling as long as we returned all of the equipment. We also inquired about moving. They told us there would be no charge for moving, we were to leave the dish, and when we got to our new place, they would provide a new dish--as long as we brought our box. So, we had to move out of state. When we called to get hooked up again, they charged us $75.00 reactivation fee. Well, that wasn't as we were told. We asked about getting a copy of our contract. They told us they never issued people a paper contract. So, even though we were told one thing upon initial activation, there was no way to prove it, as they wouldn't let us see our contract. In fact, the guy asked "how do I know you're not lying".. Why in the world would I make something up... Ok, then we moved to a manufactured home park. We couldn't take our satellite service there--it was in their "rules". We called Dish Network and they said that we were breaking contract by stopping service, so we had to pay them $225.00. We told them it was out of our hands and could not be helped. They just told us we owed them $225.00 for breaking contract--again, not willing to show us the contract. Anyhow, it was the worst service we have ever gotten. The people were absolutely awful to deal with --and I do believe illegal in the way they dealt with us. We now live elsewhere--have for 4 years. We've had DirecTV the whole time. It never goes out, and we have the option to cancel at any time--AND, we have a paper contract that they gave us when they set us up. more
