So now my equipment fees jump from $38 to $63, ON TOP of the fact that two Hoppers are owned and costed a pretty penny from the get-go. Perhaps this is why they made the HwS only $199?
Thanks, Dish.

I need my two DVR's really, my answer is to drop programming. I for sure wont keep it all the way it is now, the bill is already over $150.
i think the only thing that will sway them is if they see fewer people upgrading or fewer new customers. Could take months before they figure that out.
I enjoy the Two Hopper/1 Joey Set up I have and the features I have. But while I dont want to, will dropp BB@home to start for cost
As already stated ... folks were realizing that the cost of the second Hopper was the same monthly cost as a Joey ... so if you've got the $100 ... why not get a second Hopper ... more tuners, extra hard drive space, etc ... definitely the most bang for your buck from a monthly cost perspective.
Now, folks are going to really think hard about that second Hopper. I am one of them. I was going to order 2 Hoppers and call it good ... forgetting about the Joey's altogether. Now ... I am going to have to rethink things again. For that price ... Netflix is looking attractive.

Greed is what it boils down to & they don't treat their employees any different.
The other day in the installer zone 1 of the inhouse dish guys said he had to meet a $2500 deductible on his med ins before it would cover anything. Yet dish has $25 billion to offer sprint.

I wonder if many people calling asking to be switched back to ViP equipment would send the message?
ViP pricing structure is just as ridiculous. I was thinking that Dish finally had the feed about right with Hopper, especially since we have to pay a LEASE FEE for OWNED receivers.

What kind of insurance do you have? My insurance here is the same way I need to meet the $2500 deductible, then after that everything is covered. My insurance has been that way here for almost 10 years.The other day in the installer zone 1 of the inhouse dish guys said he had to meet a $2500 deductible on his med ins before it would cover anything.

Good question, but Ive made up my mind Im sticking with dual Hoppers (not going back to Directv), so to save my self the rise in blood pressure, Ill just watch the bill and adjust my programming accordingly when it rises.
That's tragic.
In business companies raise prices because their costs rise.
In this case, Dish has made an arbitrary decision based on its perception of value. That's anti consumer.
I could accept the notion that the receiver is costing Dish more to manufacture. Unless thast is the reason, then this increase is an other example of "because we can"..
That stinks.
Guess what? I was considering going to H/J....Forget it.
Please feel free to pass this message along.
BTW, I have been with Dish for 16 years.
The taste in my mouth is getting sour. Know what I mean?
Would it be 1 HR44 + 3 or 4 HR24s?

I'm mostly just curious. It's not like I can really jump ship with all the money already invested in Dish plus ETF plus costs to purchase DirecTV equipment.
Which is exactly what Dish is betting on. However who knows what I'll do in a couple of years... I'm fast losing incentive to remain loyal with Dish...

Why is the DVR fee going up. That's what I want to know. The second Hopper price going up is no surprise. But, by the same token, Joeys should cost a lot less. Doing this in addition to the Feb price increase is unconscionable in this economy. That brings my annual increase to well over 10%. Time to definitely look elsewhere when my contract is up.
