I have been a customer of DishNetwork for three years now and have had to make 5 service calls for the equipment. Each time I speak with a service rep in a different country. (India 4 times, the Philippines once) While the service techs are helpful they have given me my local weather conditions report twice and the reports were 6-8 hours old. In two instances I was given an appointment for "tomorrow" What I failed to understand is that my tomorrow is their yesterday; so the service truck arrives 24 hours later than I expected it to. Each service call resulted in either my receiver needing to be replaced or the dish antenna needing service/replacement. I have never been offered compensation for the inconvenience, not even an I'm sorry our stuff is unreliable. If I could get it I'd even opt for Comcast!
Perhaps they should take the equipment they are thinking about using and test it in the Antarctic for 5 years before installing it in Washington State! And they should give the foreign tech support a clock/calendar with multiple time zones.

Sorry you seem to be having so much trouble with your Dish equipment.

I've had their service since it's inception, years ago.
Numerous receiver and dish upgrades over the years and so far, NO equipment troubles whatever.
Only had 2 problems at all and both were related to the installation of the dish itself. They had to come back and re-align it once because it wasn't spot on the first time and later I discovered there was no ground wire on the dish. This is required by the National Electrical Code and the installer(s) had signed off that all work was done according to code. This lack of ground is potentially unsafe and can also cause problems with the receiver(s). I have since properly grounded the dish and reported the problem to Dish Network.
I really like the service and programming, just wish price was a little lower, but I have about everything they offer.
Good luck with yours in the future.
No, I DON'T work for them.
