Possible to cut the monthly total down to below $100?

[theinv]

Hi everyone,


Here is my current bill:
==================

DIGITAL HOME ADVANTAGE WITH GREAT WALL TV PACKAGE -------- 34.99
DISH HOME PROTECTION PLAN (DHPP) -------- 5.99

DISH NETWORK DVR SERVICEFEE -------- 11.96

HD ENABLING FEE -------- 6.00

LEASED RECEIVER FEE -------- 6.00

LOCALS -------- 0.00

Account Charges $ 64.94
Total Taxes -------- $ 0.50

Total Amount Due -------- $ 65.44
========================




How will my bill change if I get AT100 + Dish HD + HBO HD? Is it something like

==========
DIGITAL HOME ADVANTAGE WITH GREAT WALL TV PACKAGE -------- 34.99
DISH HOME PROTECTION PLAN (DHPP) -------- 5.99

DISH NETWORK DVR SERVICEFEE -------- 11.96
LEASED RECEIVER FEE -------- 6.00

AT 100 ---------- 29
Dish HD ---------- 20
HBO HD ---------- 14.99
LOCALS -------- $0.00

(will buy new 622) ------ $6.0 (probably an additional $6.0)

MONTHLY TOTALS: $128.939
=========



The total will be around $128.939. Is it possible to cut the monthly total down to below $100? What will be lowest I can get?

All I want is to be able to get the DishHD and HBO HD with minimum requirements, and keep the GreatWall TV package at the same time. I don't really care about AT100, but in order to have HD I have to get it. My current DVRs are 625 and 622.


By the way, what is the "DIGITAL HOME ADVANTAGE"? Is it an outdated plan? Should I drop it?

I heard good things about Dish DVR Advantage, but why does it require AT200? That is too much for me.

Wow I have 2 622s and 2 721s AEP w/locals and HD pack for $130.99
If I only had 1 622 and 1 721 it would be $119.99

Hey, after spending upwards of $5000 for my home theater (which is cheap in some circles) I think my $127 per month for 48 channels of HD plus the other fine programming is a good deal for the quality and service. If I cut back on service it's like buying an expensive sports car just to drive to the corner grocery. No deal.

Man, I didn't know that there was a service fee for the DVR and I don't have the DHPP either. Of course, I have the basic DISH500 -- so I guess that could explain some things. I also pay annually (which wouldn't have anything to do with not paying the DHPP -- I think that must be because I own all of my own equipment). I feel sort of sad right now (with not knowing all of that stuff). And I'm supposed to be a satellite guy?
