So I may be moving

As in literally leaving my house and going to another in another town or state. Not sure on all of the specifics yet, but I would need a new TV setup. I might consider D*, but the problem is the upfront costs. I have 3 HDTVs, and I want 1 HD DVR and 2 HD Receivers. D* is making me pay $200 up front for those 2 extra receivers, while E* would just charge me $14/mo for the combination of the two. If I called instead of ordering online and mentioned what E* does, would they waive the up front charge?

Make the call and see what they have to say. They know better then we do what they can do.

I didnt even try negotiating the cost down but I also needed an HDDVR and 2 HD recievers and the lady who set up my account, when I ordered this past Wednesday, said I will get the HDDVR for free and would have to pay $99 each for the 2 boxes. She placed me on hold to add the recievers in since I also needed 3 standard ones and she came back and told me it was my lucky day. That I will be getting the HDDVR for free and 1 HD reciever for free. All I needed to pay for was 1 HD Reciever at $99. Maybe they will waive atleast one. They did for me and I didnt even ask.

Ok, if they'll waive one, I'll push for two
