Complaint Rating:

We have had DishTV for exactly one month and have experienced 6 "searching for satellite" blackouts. Every time there is the slightest hint of a rain storm, not even thunderstorm, we get no picture for an undetermined time.

Additionally, we are being charged $25. More per month than we were led to believe on the phone sign-up.

Another irritation is the requirement for two separate receivers which are only responsive to IR signals which requires one to be in the same room to change channels. The Dishnetwork unit was a dual system with one of the receivers UV signal responsive.

They have us trapped in a situation that is entirely inescapable unless we are able to pay them a $200 per remaining month on the contract.
