You would think that the Satellite networks would get the message - and Block Buster.

Besides, I'm going to need my money for that higher fuel cost.

Guess what...Blockbuster already got the message! Here in the Tampa area, Publix grocery stores have blue boxes, owned by BB. Pricing is the same I think. What they do NOT have is the ability to go online and see what each individual box has in stock, and reserve it before you go, which Red Box does have. Still, it's progress...?..

If you call DTV, ask to talk to the "retention center". They will lower your rate.

Exactly what I have been saying...when you tell them to cancel service, they suddenly come up with a better deal. I didn't make this up, it is the way it is.

Who has done that and how much did they lower the rate???? Detials please. It did not work for us.....

Us either. They quoted me that our bill would go up from 58.49/mo to 61.49/mo with no change in the E/W billing of 3.50 per ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX. This could be because I'm listed as being a residential customer with an RV waiver whereas many RVers are listed as Mobile. It must be that if you are changing locals wherever you might be they declare you Mobile.

I really don't know -- just telling you what they told me when THEY called me in answer to my e-mail complaining about the increase.
