I was thinking about getting into fta and someone suggested that a Pansat 2700A should be a good, yet cheap receiver to get started with. Anyone know of a reputable site with a really good deal on this receiver? I have found quite a few websites that sell these but they are either really...

Last night at about 11pm my hr-21 lost all channels(sd and hd) as I was flipping through channels. I turned the receiver off and got up this morning and still no channels of any kind were coming in. I went to the menu to check signal strength and the entire receiver completely froze on the view...

After two weeks and some problems with directvs website I finally managed to complete an order for an hd upgrade. My install was scheduled for today for 12-4pm. So I took the day off work knowing I wouldn't get another for nearly two weeks. Directv called yesterday to confirm my appointment...

I recently had some trouble upgrading to hd and everyone says to talk to customer retention. The only way to reach them is to say cancel at the prompt. Is there any way that the automated system would cancel my account without putting me through to customer retention first?

If I upgrade my standard receiver to a hd dvr over the phone would it be possible to just have the charge for the receiver added to my next monthly bill instead of having to use my credit card over the phone? Has anyone been able to do this? Thanks!

On tuesday I went to the directv website and tried to upgrade my equipment to HD. When I clicked submit order instead of being sent to a screen to select an installation time, it took me back to the checkout page and said: "Sorry, we are having trouble processing your payment, please check your...

I am about to upgrade to hd but had some questions. I am currently subscribed to the choice extra package and wanted to upgrade to plus hd dvr. My question is do I need to upgrade my package through their website before I change my equipment to the hd dvr receiver? Or would upgrading the...

I am thinking about upgrading to HD but I just can't figure something out. I was always under the impression that if a channel was part of your regular package and you add HD access that you would get that channel in HD if it was offered. However, when looking at an HD channel list on...

At about 10 this morning all my locals were working great. I had a movie autotuned on the starz free weekend and when it autotuned the channel said channel not purchased. So I reset the receiver to try to get it to work. When the receiver came back on, I pushed in 530 to see if the channel was...

I am currently subscribed to Total Choice with no premium movie channels, but I am interested in adding starz. If I were to add starz and keep it for a couple months and then cancel it, will I be moved into the new pricing structure? I don't want to lose my current package. Any info would be...

I would like to cancel Cinemax, will I have to call Directv to do this? If so what number and or department should I talk to? Thanks in advance for any info!

I have had directv since august. I have the total choice package which includes Fox Movie Channel- 258. Today when flipping through I noticed that on fox movie channel it says channel not purchased on both of my receivers. This channel is supposed to be part of my package and until today has...

I recently signed up for directv online. I had my system installed and activated one week later on August 31. It has now been 9 days and I have yet to receive my first bill in the mail. From what I've read your bill is due approximately 20 days from your account billing cycle date(the day you...

I am having directv installed tomorrow. 1. How long should install take with just 2 standard receivers? 2. There is also an old directv satellite mount from the previous owners, any chance that could that be used for the new dish? 3. Would there be a problem running the cables through...

Can anyone tell me if I would get any RSN's with my Total Choice Package? My zip code is 41240. Thanks for any info anyone can give!

Under what circumstances does directv require the $50 activation fee? I am in the process of signing up online and can't get a direct answer. I already have to pay a $200 security deposit, so the extra $50 might be a deal breaker if I had to pay it too. Thanks in advance for any info you can give!

I have been turned down for dish network's digital home advantage due to the fact I have no credit history. The only way I could get dish would be to pay $399 for the equipment. I think thats way too much plus no free movie channel for 3 months and no $10 off for $10 months. I was wondering if...

on saturday afternoon. I received a certificate number and was told my order would be processed in 24 hours. After that I would receive a confirmation email that would contain my acct. # and my scheduled installation date and time. It has been over 48 hours and I have yet to recieve this email...
