I have had cable the majority of my life. When I moved into my townhouse, I decided to try DirecTV. The rep was here EXACTLY on time (VERY unlike cable). It took the rep a while to hook things up (not his fault, my townhouse is wired weird), but …

Having DirecTV satellite service was one of the most miserable experiences of my life. I had it for five long, agonizing months before I switched to another provider. One of the most annoying things was the fact that it did not provide a consistently clear, uninterrupted picture. …

At one time I subscribed to DISH Network. For a while everything seemed good; multiple channels to choose from, movies, fair price. After a while I realized that one third of the time I had no service…a gentle rain would wipe out all transmission from the satellite to my …

I recently purchased the Dish Network prepaid package for my home.This is a excellent value for those who don’t want to pay a high cable bill. For those who are not familiar with the dish network prepaid service, its is very similar to using a prepaid cellphone. I chose …

Our family has used Dish Satellite for almost ten years now and we’re very pleased with it. Well, I guess you can tell that since who would use the same service for ten years because they did not like them, huh?
We had a very bad experience with one …

I had subscribed to DISH TV last year. They were offering a package wherein I had to pay Rs 3990/- INR for the dish, the set-top box and the installation. I had opted for the package with Rs 300/- monthly charge and they were offering more than …

I had my DirecTV service installed about four months ago and overall I have had nothing but problems out of it. My DirecTV satellite service never works during bad weather or even when it is cloudy outisde. There are also many occassions when the service will just not …

This is the first time that I try Comcast Cable and I am not very impressed.
There is a 3-month trial where Comcast gives a dicounted rate just to try it out, after that trial period, the prices become very expensive.
A nice feature that Comcast has is In Demand, where …

When first looking for a satellite service, we decided to try out DirectTV. Do not ask me why, but for some reason we thought this would be the best company to go with. Wrong!
Let’s begin with the equipment. DirectTV sent out the equipment…the actual units along …

I was the user of cable TV for a very very long time and when my spouse suggested that we switch over to satellite D2H, I was very much against it. Firstly, I was not willing to shell out the money needed for the dish and installation and the …

The advent of the satellite radio is fantastic. As a trucker, we were able to listen to the same radio station, across the nation. Imagine, 3 hours of jazz. The wide variety of selections keeps any listener entertained. Just let your ears be your guide. Now that XM and …

We have had Directv satellite service for two years now and are generally happy with it. On the pro side the picture is much clearer and the number of channels greater than with the Mediacom cable we had before. There is an easy to use remote and a good …

I was having a lot of problems with the cable operator giving poor service. Everyday either one or the other popular channel would be missing or the cable connection would be off for a few hours. When I used to check with the cable operator he would always say …

I have been a customer of DirecTV for over 5 years. I have been relatively pleased with their service.
The biggest issue with satellite TV is the reception during thunderstorms and strong winds. There is nothing worse than being “trapped” indoors due to bad weather and …

I absolutely love Dish Network and this is why.
Television is big in my household. That is why we have satellite service as long as we have lived at our current residence. We live in a very rural area, so rural in fact that cable services are not …

After putting up with Dish Network for a couple of years, I’m delighted to be back with cable. I was told repeatedly that service would not be interrupted when the wind blew and it drizzled outside. Yeah right. My service went out more often than it did not when …

We have been DirecTV customers for nearly 3 years. We were previously Dish Network subscribers, but found that they marketed heavily to get new customers, while offering no incentive or upgrades for loyal customers who had been with them a number of years.
We called Dish and begged for …

Ok! Dare I say this company has some issues! Now here’s the deal. In order to get a great package deal on my cable, telephone, internet, etc. I decided to go w/ Verizon. Direct TV was the cable provider. The night they installed the sattelite there were a few …

I may sound bitter, but I’ve enjoyed the service I’ve received from Virgin Media. I’ve been a customer with other subscription services like Sky before, and after its well funded rebrand, I was expecting good things from Virgin Media.
It makes very big promises but rarely delivers. Generally, its …

I have been connected with Dragnet Satellite internet services for about a month a now, the first week of it was absolutely terrible with alot of downtime and the websites I wanted to go to didn’t load completely or properly, it was extremely frustrating and it was just a …

Many catches in their business practice.
1) I ordered Dish Network service through AllSat. I was told I would get $50 gift card from AllSat, and my installation fee would be waived, and there were 10 X 10 certificates that could be used for international program I ordered. But none …

Prior to switching to DirecTV, my family had been a customer of Comcast Cable Company for several years. Throughout the duration of our time with Comcast, we experienced nothing but major problems. Every month our bill would go up without any type of notice or explanation and …

Cnn Enhanced is an application on DishNetwork that allows the user the ability to be able to read through news stories instead of actually watching it. I believe it’s a wonderful application. I love using it because I can simply scroll through the application for all of …

Beware of DISH Network!
I signed up with their company after looking for a more affordable option for television programming. My cable company was pretty expensive and DISH Network appeared to be reasonable. I signed up on their website and although there were a couple of charges that weren’t …

I have to say that DirecTV is a lifesaver to me and my family. Regular channels do not offer anything close to what DirecTV offers. I like to scan the channels and it’s to the point that I sometimes can’t decide what to watch on television. I love to …

I had cable (Bresnan) for several years. I never really appreciated my cable, until I moved to an area where only DirectTV (satalite) was available.
Yes, DirectTV has a lot of channels, and yet a large percentage of them are not in English. Then there is the Bi/Gay/Lesbian channel …

My feelings for Direct Tv are black and white. Part of me wants to say negative things about Directv but at the same time I want to give them positive props. I mean they aren’t a bad company, there are just a few things that I don’t like about …

Believe it or not there are still some places in the united states that do not have basic cable. Of course the large networks broadast over airwaves so I can get five channels with an antenna. My only option for decent programming was to use a satellite service.
I tried …

I have had direct tv for 5 years now. I have had a few minor issues with them over the years but mostly it has been fine. First I will list the issues and how they dealt with them, then I will list how they have exceeded …

Some advantages to both satellite providers, Dish provides a free DVR upon signup where you can record up to 100 hours of your favorite tv shows, movies, sports, etc. Another advantage with Dish is the price, they have better deals then DirectTV. Advantage with Direct TV they offer you …

I was with Broadband Satellite Internet Services for 18 months, what all I can say about bordernet is… average.
It wasn’t incredibly fast, it was ok in that department. It didn’t have alot of downtime, I often needed to refresh pages quite a few times sometimes, it became quite frustrating. …

Direct Tv in my opinion is bad tv and tooo expensive. Direct TV blanks out when we have a wind storm of any kind. Direct TV is too expensive and there are a 100 channels with nothing to watch. Out of all the channels we have, …

Directv Hindidirect II package is the best Indian channel package you can find abroad. It is worth the dollar value giving 7 channels for $ 40 whereas other satellite options provide only 2 channels in that amount.

I felt …

I have had Dish Network for approximately 7 years now. I intitally signed up after I purchased the satellite and receiver at Wal-Mart for about $150.00 with a 10 discount for 15 months. Which was not bad at all and after the discount ended I decided to …

I had our Xplorenet satellite internet service installed in November 2005 with a local retailer. At the time the service was new and the only type that existed in our area. There was a hefty installation fee of $1200, which inclucded the satellite and the router. …

I have had several years of experience with Dish Network, and I can tell you that the service is as a general rule fairly decent as far as cable/satellite television goes, but there is a rather nasty ghost in the machine that no one ever tells you about. …

I’ve been a “loyal” subscriber of SkyCable here in the Philippines for more than a decade now. Not surprising, considering that this cable TV company has all the channels that I like to watch. So despite the higher rates, I still stick with it rather than go through the …

I have been a Sirius satelite radio subscriber for nine months now. I pay fifteen dollars a month for my service, and my radio was really not that expensive. I paid less than 30 dollars for the unit I purchased, and I saved over a hundred dollars by installing it …

Last year my husband and I moved and couldn’t get cable service at our new house. Our choices were either DirecTV or Dish Network. We decided to go with DirecTV because we had several friends who had the service and liked it.
I was impressed with how quickly …

My cable is really high so I wanted to check out Dish Network to see if I would like them better. I have never had satellite before and have heard about them in advertisements and commercials. My cable and internet is about $180 a month, which is ridiculous if …
