DISH Network stops carrying FSN

[Lzen]

Those bastards at Dish wanna charge me for what they call a 'discounted' shipping label to ship my receivers back to them. $15 each is discounted? They tried to talk me into staying with them by offering Starz and saying that I'm getting NFL Redzone. I don't give a crap about those. And they also said they guaranteed that after my initial contract and for everything I get now, I would pay at least $10 more/mo. The only thing I'm not getting is a 2nd DVR for the kids. But like I said, my girl really doesn't need one. But I am gaining a 2nd HD receiver. I'm so glad I'm ditching them.

Yeah, they offered me 3 months of Starz too. Why would they think that Starz is an appropriate substitution for a sports channel?

I canceled last week and told them no on there "discounted " boxes and they shipped them to me anyways. I love having the sunday ticket and hd on all of my households tvs instead of just 50% of them.I think direct tvs hd signal is superior to dish networks.The big thing for me was that my bill is about 50% less for the next 5 months.

If you cancell dish network dont call them to cancel untill you no longer need there service. I called two days ahead and told them to shut it down on a specific date and the guy took it personaly, shut me off immmediately . I could not get it turned back on without absurd charges there customer service people can be a tad unprofessional.

I waited to cancel. And then I had to go through 5 minutes of the "for this press 1, for that press 2" BS to finally talk to someone. Then, after I had told her I just wanted to cancel... which took another 5 minutes... I had to be put on hold for another 5 minutes to talk to her supervisor... and then it took another 5 minutes to finally get it done.

20 friggin' minutes for a simple disconnect.
