Is anyone else having trouble with dish’s website not working? When I try to log in and view my bill the website says my access is “forbidden” and won’t let me log in. I just want to pull up my account 😩🤦🏽♀️.
While this is all speculative, if Dish is going Ch 11, there are not many success stories for these kinds of companies emerging “as usual” when it’s all done. It will be interesting to watch and is disappointing as a customer for over 25 years. I’ve tried the whole cord cutting/ streaming thing but always kept Dish as a backup. Just not a fan of streaming.
Not sure if they phase out tv service because they’ll still have birds in orbit, but not sure they can remain competitive price wise. I think the ABC/Disney stuff is ending soon and negotiating while in Ch 11 will not go well (IMO), so I’m expecting blackouts.
It’s pretty disappointing
I have a Hopper 3 plus and Hopper plus when I go into the Hopper menu to turn on signal protect there are only 2 items available signal protect menu item is not there…help! When the storms come I can’t watch anything.
In mid-June I called DISH to ask about when the local stations would be available again. I expected "we don't know" but instead got "they've been available since May 1st". INFURIATING. BTW, this was after buying 3 antennas and having a tech visiting for something else install a $60 antenna-to-Hopper adapter, never getting solid display of the locals, and repeat calls to DISH about the status. If they'd been paying attention they'd have known I wanted a notification.
I'm not even seeing it if I was a new customer?
Was good with the WebTV Plus back in the day.
Is anybody else getting glitches or signal loss when it’s not cloudy? Seems like it’s amplified during the FIFA games on local channels.
I watch a lot of Hallmark HD and quite often I will see motion artifacts and some blockies.
I recently spent a few days at a relative's house and was surprised by how much clearer Hallmark HD was on satellite DirecTV and there were no glitches or compression artifacts at all. Same with TCM; these days I rarely see a movie on TCM that doesn't freeze or artifact at some point during the movie.
Does DISH just compress that much more highly? All my signal levels are quite good so I don't think it's alignment.
I would ponder switching but I have two large external HDs of content hanging off my Hopper 4K which is 84% full itself (or is it the Hopper 4K itself whose interface is buggier than I've ever seen it before?)
Satellite service started glitching this morning - all channels.
EDIT: Dish online appears unaffected.
I'm seeing a ton of reports from across the US saying issues wish channels breaking up (all channels), picture going in and out.
"Constant signal skips & distortions"
"Picture freezing and interference"
Is it everywhere or just certain areas?
Anyone else affected?
Had a dish technician out today to look at my MIL's system. He was on time, courteous and found and solved the issue quickly. It was a defective F connector coming off the LNB. He redid both sides of a coupler and replaced said coupler. All is good now. Thank you Dish.
All this week their has been glitches on Fox Sports One 4K channel for about 1-2 seconds anyone else experiencing this?
Three years ago while I had a TV issue the technician started telling me a how well the Google mesh WiFi Pro setup is, so I ended up purchasing a mesh network setup. I ended up moving out of the house two years ago, taking the networking gear with me. Lately I have been having issues shortly after changing out the modem, but then the network clasped. Today I purchased a Google WiFi Pro from BestBuy thinking the original WiFi Access Point had a hardware issue. As of 2023, did DISH carry Google WiFi Pro Hardware?
