Correction to my post on the number of drops for Dish. The guy misled me, its only one drop form outside to inside. I have 4 tax covered so he had to buzz out my coaxes, i did not want to pay extra one time for the wireless Joeys. Thats cool as I have coax cables where I need them. Waiting to see if crooked DTV will charge me for the two days of service. They lied to me that I could not cancel for 30 days and they will bill me for 30 days, i called back the next day and they disconnected me thursday so two days of service. Ill take the equipment to a UPS store on Saturday. Ill see if they bill me for 30 days. Wednesday I had asked for a manager and the POS customer service agent hang up on me.

So Stink & Randy either failed to do due diligence, or they were too stoopid to figure things out.

It's just another chapter in the att book of managing

If you want Sunday ticket just try to sign up for the online version. DTV will be losing it after the 2022 season and they will lose millions of customers. Either Apple or Amazon will have it but just pay for the yearly online version until then.

All of these financials are audited, so no. I agree with the responses that we overplayed - which is why we have taken such HUGE write downs.

May as well have given DTV away. Bought for 75B, sold for 17B, kicked over 2B for NFL Sunday Ticket subscriber losses. Net 15B, unless T is forced to kick more money over to DTV.

WTF are you talking about? The Stink is only capable of buying high and selling low. He even gave them $2B for their loss of "Take a Knee" NFL Season Ticket and cut medical from retiree healthcare instead of putting that $2B into the grossly underfunded pension plan.

most shocking, companies do that? lol. DTV is garbage. I signed up and got it installed this week, it was a sh-t show, while the service is great, i could not create an online account and could not use the DTV ap on roku so it was useless to me. I called the next day and cancelled. I went to Dish and so far I love it. easy to use, (full disclosure, the streaming ap is also not supported on roku so I had to get a Amazon stick for two of my tvs and I need four drops to go from dish to inside as I had 4 TVs to cover). DTV brought n this huge monstrosity that doubled as a wireless bridge and DVR. I needed a separate received for the tv where this box was sitting beside. They want to charge me one month service for having it for one day. I am protesting that, we will see. plus watch the fine print, the discount may take up to 3 milling cycles to appear. Dish has a two year guaranteed fixed price. DTV is one year of the advertised price but you MUST sign up for two years of service. the CS person promised to do the second year at the same price as the first year (win wink cross my heart) sure, thats gonna work. Im glad I dropped it. I wish I had sunday ticket but the trickery and mess dont make up for ST for one more year. come fall 2023 they probably wont have it anymore.
