Well called last week to get Voom... Got my install date (today)... Called Installs, Inc as the post suggested (thanks for that info... was a big help) they were going to just bring the cheapo antenna out, when I really needed a better one.. They got that worked out with the order. They gave me the name and number of the local installer if there were any questions or problems... seemed like it was working out great.
Well yesterday I get a call from the installer.... he confirms the install date and time (today) and I just talk to him about what he and other people he knows that have Voom.... Well he starts giving me this suck a$$ review about Voom... He tells me that I really should cancel my order and order Dish HD... he says that it is soooo much better than Voom in many ways.... (oh did I mention that he says that he installs Dish too and can install it for me) So he starts telling me that the recievers for V are programmed wrong when he gets them and has to get them reprogrammed... that V is not true HD 1080 but it is 480p upconverted to 1080... The programming is really crappy, and on and on...
He also tells me that he is not going to be bringing me the better antenna as installs, inc said he would bring but would only bring the cheap one... he says that if there is a problem he will get me a better one... I told them that I already have a Terk one that is a mid grade and it only picks up one station out of two and a cheaper one wont do that because of my location... insists he will do it his way and if it dont work they will come back...
so we will see how things go... I imagine it will be a nightmare...
