Hi fellow RV'ers,
We purchased a satellite dish for our RV over a year ago and have DishTV as the provider. For the longest while, it was pay as you go...we had a running balance of $120 and if we used the service for 4 days, that $120 would be deducted by $20. Next time we used the service, we'd just have to replenish the $20 and we'd be good to go. Well you know that all good things must come to an end. Last October, DishTV decided to end that type of "pay as you go service" and instituted a "you pay $131 if you want to turn the service on." WTF!!! What happened to being customer friendly? Oh I forgot, we don't live in that world anymore and it's all about corporate profits. Anyway, enough of the soap box...does anyone still have DishTV as your satellite service, and if you do, what are you doing to control costs?
