  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I have 3 receiver on my account that were on "vacation hold" with DirecTV. My account has since been converted to ATT. I called in to get one of the receivers reactivated and was told that only the active receivers are showing on the account now. The 3 on vacation hold cannot be activated as...

    Called in today just for the heck of it based on thread over at Slickdeals. I am currently receiving a $60 per month discount from a call this past summer. The rep immediately offered $50 off per month, HBO and Sports free for 6 months, and Showtime free for 4 months. She also went on a hunt for...

    I didn't necessarily call to get a discount, but to call for a $10 Premium Channel disconnection charge that appeared for the disconnection of the promo of 3 free months of Showtime was finally ending. 20 minutes on the phone just to get $10 off, jeesh what a hassle.
  4. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I have exact same issue with my HR24. Ran all of the diagnostics and all cam through just fine. Will give them a call tonight as it is was getting painful when team was actually scoring yesterday and wasn't actually able to see the play. Yeah, yeah, I know....First World Problems. :D
  5. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Follow up question. I have an AM-21 for over the air usage and I asked the Tech if the lines could be diplexed to be able to use it for any OTA channels I wanted and he said there was not a way to do it. So basically, I have an AM-21 that is obsolete aside from running an additional coax line to...

    Update to my install which occurred this past Monday. Tech showed up promptly at 8am and we did a quick site survey. New house in an HOA for the first time, I had no idea where I could and could not place the dish. Tech seemed about as clueless as I was about that. Seems to me they would know as...

    Thanks all. I think I have an HD receiver from a prior install that I could likely use to mount behind once of the TV's. If I remember correctly, it is small enough to do that. Sorry for my poorly worded sentence. I know that I cannot have 2 Genie's.

    Yep, only 7... D'oh! I counted 6 on one hand and then 2 on the other. :D
  9. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Have been with DirecTV for 14 or so years and just within last 6 months put account on suspension while we sold one home and built a new one. Had a 4 room set up each with an HD-DVR. 1 HR24, 2 HR22's and an HR21. Thinking I will want to upgrade at least 1 or 2 of the HR21 or 22's. One to a...

    Thanks all. Do we know what the test markets are for the single line LNB? Please say Dallas, Please say Dallas. :D
  11. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Building a new home and currently have my service suspended with DirecTV while the house is being built. In wiring stage now and have already put in all of my Cat 6 cabling. Next up is Coax to all points I want TV's to be installed. Having not needed a new dish or equipment for several years...

    How can I get my hands on one of these Genines?
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Perfect opportunity to get more HD-DVR's vs. HD receivers activated. Since you were already reupping for another 2 years anyway. :D

    Love how TWC says to contact Congress about the drop. LOL. Nothing like a bit of scare tactics to rile people up huh? Personally, I use Accuweather and Wunderground.

    Checked mine last evening and 8-2 and 8-3 were there.
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Just curious as I am going to start cleaning out my attic and start getting rid of a bunch of stuff. Have a bunch of old receivers, DVR's etc. Worth it to sell on ebay or Craigslist? Have several old Tivo sd-dvrs, R15's, HR10-250 etc.
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    For me, it was that D* was the best deal I could get with the best picture. I had Charter cable and in our area was horrible at the time. Probably still is, have no idea. I shopped E* as well, but in the end I got best deal I could with D*. To save, I even installed the old round dish myself.

    My thoughts exactly. :lol:
