Well...we will see after today.  Had them come out today and move the receiver.  We have had a ton of trouble with customer service not wanting to come out and mess with the receiver.  We have had the satellite for 8 years and no one has ever been willing to actually come to the house and work on it.  Customer service phone always wants to walk you through moving your own satellite system while they are on the phone.  We have had lines on our second tv since day one and were told that it was something we would just have to deal with and we have for 8 years.

Recently, we had a major storm blow through and we completely lost our satellite system.  We had two choices...call Dishnetwork again and walk through it on the phone or call cable and have them hook up.  I didn't want the hassle of that so I called Dish but this time I refused them to walk me through it and demanded they come out and move my system and then they wanted to charge me for it.  I refused that as well stating I have never paid my bill late and had two choices when I called them.  They finally agreed to come out free of charge.  The guy who came out was very nice.  He fixed it all for us at no charge and we have no lines on our second tv anymore either!! Yeah.

So, at this time, I am liking Dishnetwork again.  They have the better selection of channels.  We like sports and they have a much better choice of sports and the history channel also.  As far as cable, it would have been nice to have the package of 3, cable, internet and telephone all in one.
