Sol Aristatel Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 No I’m not dealing with the buffering bullshit during football I recently went back to cable. Got sick and tired of the buffering and looping. I have top of the line internet and still had issues with it. Bundled the internet and cable together and it's only $30 more per month vs having the internet separate with the Sling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still doing the call up and ask for a discount thing with direct TV, been doing it for 5-6 years now, currently I'm paying about $85(after a $40 discount). i keep hearing they are going to stop that, when they do I'm gone. I hate to say it but i support dish, the true enemy is the networks/providers that think they deserve double digit increases in fee's every time they renew, someone has to stand up to them.

I really wish Dish/Direct/Cable Cos could be in a dispute with these greedy channels at the same time - - that would really hit them where it hurts.

Sol Aristatel Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Once a cable or satellite company can pull off a true full buffet style channel lineup, they will kill it. Only pay for what you watch. I have 250+ channels and probably watch no more than 15. Of those 15, 5 probably get 80% of my viewing. They are on the right track with all of these little packages you can get. But a true pay per each channel option will be a game changer.

The media companies won't allow it. You want to sell ESPN on your cable co? Well Disney won't allow it unless you also pay for ESPN2, all the Disney channels and the other channels they own. 90% of cable channels are owned by 8-9 companies and they force the Cable Co to pay for the lesser watched channels in order for the privilege of carrying the popular channels - - -the cost is passed to you.

The hulu live never buffers. I do have business class internet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol Aristatel Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Did you try hulu live or you tube tv? Tried Hulu. Don't remember having issues with it during the free trial period. Haven't tried Youtube TV yet. Picked Sling because they offered what I needed as far as channel options. Need the Pac12 Network, etc. Sling had everything I wanted. The other two were at least lacking one channel I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. NBA Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I called in and bitched tonight. They gave me a one time $8 discount applied to my next bill. I feel like I just got my ass fucked. Call and cancel sleepy.......break the contract and tell em why. Tell em you are going to go to Hulu or whatever. I guarantee you get more than 8 bucks off and hell if I was you I would just straight up cancel. Dish blows......I'm surprised you don't have DTV with the NFL Ticket.

mikeman Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 It sounds like they gave you a discount because of the dispute that's taken them off the air. Once you're off contract try to get a real discount, I dont know how easy it is with Dish, but it's worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone in retention will make it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
