DONT SIGN A CONTRACT.. Dish is MUCH WORSE THAN DIRECT TV or COX... make DISH LAST CHOICE. Dish sells you outdated receiver and equipment, when you realize its outdated, an admission by the first customer service representative I spoke to the manager will gladly.. after only 3 months of Service.. dish will gladly swap it out for an upgrade charge!!! Crooks and deceptive practices. Told me not to call Direct TV until after the installer left...that's because Direct TV would've been competitive and gave me a loyalty cut rate to stay with them, but Dish knew it was too late..DECEPTIVE PRACTICE SALES!! STAY AWAY FROM DISH.. the guide is terrible, the channel selection POOR!!! Worst decision, I hate watching TV now. Get smart TV, and eliminate these crooks, they are desperate because their greed drive business away. Tech savvy people are turning to Hulu and Netflix,etc. Look in to it and do the same ..you will save a fortune$$$$
