About 1 month ago I called E* and said "yeah, gimme the 2nd free dish...please". And they said "sure, how's Sepember 29th?"

I ordered anyway, what choice did I have if I wanted the free dish? Well about 2 weeks ago I got a call from an E* CSR that basically stated/asked "do you still want the dish? Mostly you will be getting Spanis stations and a bunch of useless indeoendent locals". I confirmed that I DO still want the dish and will wait.
Lo & behold I got a call yesterday saying they can install THIS week...or next week, or the week after. Virtually anytime!!!

So I schedule for next week. But, WHAT GIVES?? Why the sudden availability after initially being scheduled so far out? Did a bunch of parts come in or is everyone deciding against the 2nd dish?

:confused:

Maybe the CSRs great attitude toward the programming offered is swaying people away from the second dish. That probably isn't their place the judge programming, imho.

I got the same call from Dish and told them YES I still wanted it but they could not schedule mine sooner than current end of June.
