Direct, Dish or AT&T

[Carolina Mike]

I just moved from El Paso, TX to San Fran, CA.... B/c I moved & still kept Direct TV I get the following for free

3 HD/DVR's

No cost installation

No extra charges for local channels

Whole Home DVR (meaning I can record a show downstairs then watch that recording in ANY room in the house. Plus I can pause a show then walk into another room and start watching that same movie/show from that same paused location in another room)

******BIG FINISH*****

FREE NFL SUNDAY TICKET for me this YEAR!!!!

I truly LOVE Direct TV, as I had only went with them a few years back b/c I HATED how I was treated by TWC. I did not know what I was missing with Direct TV until I switched. I'm telling you now, you will be very happy with Direct TV b/c they have ALL the channels & I have never had a reception issue either.

I switched from DirecTV to Dish because I got tired of Direct dicking me around.

I have been happier since I did.

Aww man fellas, thanks a lot. It sounds like Direct TV is leading. I looked them up online, I like the hopper with the 2000hrs of recording, but I really like that you get NFL Ticket Sunday with the Choice pckg, which is $34.99 before fees. I don't like hang to pay $6 for each box after the 1st one but it's still cheaper than TWC.

DirecTV is awesome.

I have a few friends with AT&T and they love it.

Heard nothing good about Dish.

I switched from Time Warner to U-verse the day it became available in my 'hood. I have never looked back. Satellite is a pain in the ass when you get a storm so I've heard from everyone I know that has ever had it.

I turn off everything but basic local from Final Four to preseason every summer because we are never home much. You can do it all online without talking to some douche in a call center to switch it on and off. I like that.

DirecTV is great. They have more channels, better sports programming, and the customer service is great. They'll even throw in free premium channels for a few months from time to time. And the HD looks awesome.

haha, time warner blows donkey balls..

I have AT&T.. but I would take DTV in a second.. Dish not so much.. AT&T is overall nice, but I think if price isn't an issue I'd go with RR (TWC) and DTV though...

AT&T was ahead of the curve with the ability to record 4 channels at once and a universal DVR system with more than enough space..

I have Dish now and couldn't be more unhappy with it. With the top 200 package, about 185 channels are unwatchable garbage and they are dropping AMC and IFC. When i was in OKC we had both DirecTV and U-verse, they were both far better than Dish. For me, the Sunday Ticket puts DirecTV over the top

[bleys]

Dish has one goal in mind: offer a lower price than DTV.. which means they have to cut corners somehow..

I would never choose Dish over DTV..

Directv tends to go out everytime a thunderstorm occurs, but other than that, its been good.

[Panther_Brotherhood]

Pretty much anything other than TWC is better

I got ATT u-verse. DTV, Dish or TWC can't touch ATT u-verse with 10 foot poll.

DirecTV is the way to go. You don't have to have it on your roof. They will put a pole mount in your yard, but it costs a little more.That's what I did. My cousin-in-law has Dish and he likes it. I have heard negative things about them, though. Had a bad experience with AT&T concerning my long distance a few years ago. It was necessary to get the BBB involved. I want nothing to do with them.

If anybody wants it, here is a referral link to DirectTV. You will get whatever their best package is, plus you get $10.00 of ten bills for a total of $100.00 when you sign up. So when you look at what it costs to get DirectTV factor in the fact you can drop it ten a month for ten months.
