While I seldom say it, I'd just like to thank Dish. This morning I woke up to a free year of Starz, the FX channel being in the Top 120 package, and the external hard drive feature enabled for free. All of this without a single phone call. I know my bill went up and I'm not surprised but I can't recall every getting anything for it other then the same service. The benefit outweighs the cost big time.
 
Yeah. This is a happy thing. Though many will find reason to be angry, many of whom no longer even get (ever had?) Dish.

I'm happy to be getting Starz for no additional fee... and for a year at that. An unusual give by the Dish or Cable companies. Sadly, I won't be watching Starz this afternoon. I'll be watching FSC HD, where Dish Net was one of the first to offer it in HD.
 
Thank you, Guys!! We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know that you are enjoying your free gifts. It is nice to hear when we do something worthwhile for our customers! Have an awesome day!!!

I watched ESPN2, Man Utd Vs Villa.

Hey, I just went online and signed up for HD for LIFE. While it still requires Autopay and Paperless, it DID NOT require a 24 month commitment. This is freaking awesome! Thanks!

Is this part of the new changes as well? I hadn't heard this.
 
That is a new change as well. You no longer need the 24 month commitment in some circumstances! The requirement of a commitment is account specific.

While I wasn't too thrilled with $5 added to my bill it doesn't sting as much with the Hd Platinum for 12 months.Now if I could get some ppv coupons..

But still

Thanks DishNetwork!
 
Are those of us with AEP + HD platinum (or whatever its called) and who in their 14 years of service with Dish have NEVER purchased a PPV event or movie (never redeemed a free PPV coupon because we do not watch PPV EVER) going to get any kind of discount? Or are we getting more worthless paper and a "thank you for your money, sucker" note?

Not a complaint. A real question.
 
"Thank you sucker." PM one of the Dish Internet Response Team members here and see what they can do for you. Mary was very nice and got me a free year of Platinum. Didn't "lose" the rest of my HD either when fixing things. ;)
 
Add me to the Thank-you! Love getting Starz for a year. HD for life not bad either! :)
 
I would like to say thanks to Dish as well! Since coming back to Dish last July (AT120HD) I've gotten a lot of extras besides the new customer deal. I've gotten 3 free months of Starz and Platinum, a free month of Encore, some free pay per view coupons, and several channels each month to preview. Plus now I'm getting Platinum free for a year. With my limited budget, Dish is by far the best value for me. I don't think the cable companies will ever come close.

Also thanks to Satelliteguys for making me aware of these deals!

went on chat and tried to change a free year of encore (which i dropped in nov because i didn,t watch it at all) for a free year of starz (they gave me three free months when i cancelled encore) and was told there was no way they could do that. so now i have something i didn,t want in the first place. big deal. congrats to those of you who actually got something worth watching.
 
Wow, just checked online and I was able to add Free HD for life with no commitment too. I was already on autopay and paperless billing. Awesome!
 
I'd like to add my thanks to Dish for having all those national HD channels, the free Starz for a year is nice too. Add in a few PPV coupons now and then, free HD and the other promos that have come along the way and I'm a happy camper. Not to mention the excellent 722k... :)
