    Gave Equipment Back To Dealer, Dish Keeps Calling Anyway

    How do I get Dish to stop threatening me? I cancelled my contract within the first 180 days. The CSR said at the time (And my contract confirms) that I have to return the equipment to the dealer I purchased it from. I returned it to the dealer that day, and have a receipt. But the Dish...

    speedtv in HD

    I'm new to Dish as well and as I understand it, the hold up has something to do with a lawsuit between Dish and Fox Networks regarding FoxNews and the programming tier it appears on. I think that lawsuit has been resolved, but bad blood remains. As a result, other Fox channels and HD channel...

    dish network: what a nightmare!! had no choice went with direct tv.

    I understand why a retailer would use a contract. I don't find fault with that. But as a new customer, that business relationship is something that is not often explained well enough. I had a neighbor (before I moved into the neighborhood) that used a local retailer, and signed the standard...

    dish network: what a nightmare!! had no choice went with direct tv.

    The thing no one mentions about a local retailer is that there's often a second contract with them, with a separate cancellation fee over and above the Dish contract and cancellation fee. So unless you like being on the hook for $400, $500, or even possibly $600+ in cancellation fees, be very...

    622 "Hard Shutdown"Itself While Watching TV

    Were you changing channels between OTA and satellite? I experienced a spontaneous reboot on my 722 after some issues with OTA channels. Thread here: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/146367-stange-problem-722-ota-local.html

    Stange Problem with 722 and OTA local

    I'm new to Dish and not exactly sure what you mean by separator - but if you're talking the 'splitter' type device at the DVR end, then yes I've got one.

    Stange Problem with 722 and OTA local

    BINGO!! I have never seen this problem, until I tried the steps you just described above using the up/down function. I ALWAYS tune either from the guide screen or by direct entry (i.e 00701 to tune to 7-1 OTA). I never use the up/down function. (Just a habit) I have never seen the problems...

    My Network TV HD?

    AFAIK, myNetworkTV is not available nationally and is only available with a local channel package. Thus you would have to look on the Dish Network website, plug in your address/zip code to get the list of locals available in your market and see what's available in HD.

    Additional Dish Olympic Info

    The soccer channel must have been on 110 earlier in the week since I could watch it. I can't get either now. (I'm awaiting a service call to realign - I can't see 129 at the moment).

    Installer says 61.5 being emptied

    FWIW, my local dealer told me the same story last Friday. That 61.5 is 'old' and being 'phased out' as he put and and that everything is going to 129. :confused:
