Dish has gotten comparatively expensive but it really is the premium television experience when compared to those lower cost streaming services with cloud based DVR’s that don’t operate smoothly.
Read some of the responses to my comment and none have yet give me a compelling reason to stay with Dish. I get all the sports I want, LIVE. I sub to MLBtv each season. I am watching all the live college games I can handle. I don't watch the NFL for any reason. As far as having 250 channels and only watching a few, the way Dish bundles their programming you have to stepup to get certain channels. My wife has learned to do without to save over $1000 a year. I have unlimited DVR cloud service which works without a hitch. But as I said before long time loyalty doesn't matter to Dish, it's all about how much they can screw out of you. Sit back and really evaluate what is important and how much you want to pay for it.
Which most of us who have chosen to stay with Dish have! You go your way, we'll go ours. Goodbye.
Streaming can't give me MultiView, our local channels, the same show on multiple TV's, or a lot of other things. And it takes a high speed connection which we also don't have, especially for multiple TV's at the same time. And the way streaming prices are going up it won't be long before buying all the different services you need to get any decent selection will be as much as a satellite package but without all the satellite advantages.
Trying to save a couple of bucks isn't worth the hassle.

Amen, Amen and Amen. And a Hallelujah with a cherry on top!
I use a mixture of services. Dish Wally + EHD with Movie Pack for $32.99 a month. I have a free sub to YTTV through my job. I use it to supplement the channels missing from Welcome Pack. For everything else, there's OTA and FTA. I get pretty much everything under the sun for about $30 per month
I'm glad you found a way to save that meets your needs.
I'm doing fine with my $45 75mb internet and $42 Flex pack, adding and removing channels as needed for little to no extra cost.
Of course my loyalty has paid off with a $7 grandfathered DVR fee, keeping my Flex Pack cost in check.

Here's my question, Why does anyone feel the need to come here and post about cancelling Dish?? 1, how is that anyone else's business and 2, why would anyone think we care?
Maybe because it's a chat room, and that's kinda what we do?
Because some of us would like to know what the reasons were for cancelling and where they went to replace it.
That's one thing, but bad mouthing Dish and coming across as if Dish is ripping people off isn't what anyone had in mind, I'm assuming
I've come on here ripping ATT before. I think consumers like to tell other consumers their experiences to help them make educated decisions. It's like that old saying, "One pissed off customer tells 10 other people."
I agree when they give little to no details. It does help when they are specific even if their reasons don't add up for me.
I'm not ripping Dish. If at&t had bought Dish and offered me a bundle discount, I would gladly have stayed. But I'm not going to ignore an opportunity to save $50/month with no impact on any of the programming that I prefer to watch. That would make me stupid.
Isn't every company you pay a monthly fee to ripping you off? Based on the reason why most people leave it would seem that way. I have yet to see a company that doesn't have customers who feel they are getting ripped off.
It seems to me like some customers think they're getting ripped off if they have to pay anything at all.

Yep. I've work in retail and service for a long time. There are certain people who just love to complain or think that everyone is screwing them over. Nothing new.
