Should I get Dish Network or Direct TV?
Question:
Answer:
Direct TV is much much better PLUS its cheaper.Of course at 1st all companies offer introductory offers like free service but Direct TV does that too.
You get free HBO & or Starz & I think Cinemax free for 3 months PLUS a discounted monthly rate 4 about 6 months. BUT you want something that you will enjoy in the long run which is why u should choose DirectTV.
In the long run the service is cheaper & you get more for your money. Mine runs $43.99 a month with over 150 channels PLUS they are constantly adding new channels at no extra cost & I have 10 channels of HBO & 13 channels of Starz for only $23 extra a month plus I have a subscription NBAtv which covers the whole pre to post seasons on 15 channels and there are lots of other sports packages available.
ALSO you have FREE XM radio of over 120 channels and the system is very user friendly and very easy to program things to watch that change the channel 4 you, unlike some cable/satellite company's where u have to verify what u want to watch instead of instantly changing for you.
Plus their customer service is pretty good too I must say. I have had only 1 problem & they credited my account to more than enough & offered free movie channels (for a limited time, of course) for my trouble.
So, in closing your clear choice should be Direct TV BUT also be aware that initially there is a 1 year contract to establish service with them, however Dish Network does the same. Hope I could be of some assistance to you.
Good Luck!
dish network when there are outages i never lose service great been with them for 6 years wonderful no problems great packages I pay 109 for service fees but my monthly bill great company wonderful
Dish Network is very user friendly and the support is great:) The picture quality is great, good amount of channels and something that works like tivo:)
DirecTV is better. I've been with them for 4 years and the service is great. Plenty of channels and you get a free 3 month package of either HBO, Showtime, CineMAX, or Starz/Encore. And when you've been with them for a year, you get the same thing for another 3 months free. Plus, you can see ahead of schedule on the TV Guide instead of having to wait a while with Dish, and DirecTV is more userfriendly.
ive installed dish network and own directv.. direct tv's hd quality is better dish has more hd (owning voom) dish's dvr works easier but what are they gunna do now..with tivo?? the channels are offered are mostly the same.. but each has there bonus's... if i had to pay more.. id probably get dish over direct...
I would say go with the cheaper one. They are both the same visual quality, which is digital and they are both real nice. Especially if you just watch all the documentary channels without HD, you can pick either one and be happy with them. I do have to say though, from personal experience DirecTV contracts to local satellite technicians that don't work for DirecTV so you can get a variety of technicians of all skill levels which is very scary. Also, don't get the "Protection Plan" because it's a waste of money, and if you have a problem with your receiver they will send you a refurbished unit instead of a new one. I can't say the same for Dish because I am not familiar with their inner workings. So I would say find a cheap package from either provider and go for it.
