    I struggled a but at the outset whether to give Dish all the stars. The truth is I have problems…read morewith the service. BUT, I have problems with the service because of where I live and I have DISH because of where I live- in a cable dessert. The issue isn't that I would have cable TV instead of satellite. The issue is that I would have cable INTERNET instead of satellite. If I had cable internet I would stream all my TV content, maybe use an antenna for local stations, and I wouldn't have a "TV service Provider" per se. Hello 21st century. We have satellite internet (through HughesNet, which I previously reviewed). The signal I get isn't reliable enough to stream video content, so we have to have a TV Service Provider if we want more than just local TV with an antenna. Compared to other TV Service providers I have had, DISH is far and above the best in terms of customer service. They are prompt and professional and communicate extremely well. They are easy to reach on the phone, by email, or online and the people they send to our home are knowledgeable, efficient, and very personable. It can't be easy to have a job going into the home of customers having problems and they do it very well. Today I had a repair at my home (the repair was for HughesNet which contracts out DISH for at least some of their in home repairs for customers like us who have both)- I scheduled it to be between 8 and 12. I received a call and a text message from the service person (Bobby) at 7:45 that he would be here between 8 and 8:15 and he was here as advertised. He was great and easily fixed our (HughesNet) problem.

    I've been using Dish for years, but specifically in Charleston since August of 2015. We recently…read morehad our roof replaced, and had to have a tech come to the house to realign the hardware to the satellite's in space, which I still think is pretty cool in itself. There was a minor glitch in the scheduling, because after my initial appointment was made online, I was offered a "gift" which meant I would receive Epic Movie Package for a month, but once I did that, my package changed overall and my appointment was cancelled. I didn't realize this until waiting through the two hour window for my tech to arrive. Regardless, we got one out the next day and he was very friendly and got out Dish back up and running. As for the package that we have, I don't use the Hopper, because we only want one TV in the house, and the bedrooms should be used for other things rather then watching TV. We use the DVR a lot and have several quality movies and shows (HD & SD) saved which we refer back to from time to time, and honestly, it's the only way that we keep up with our TV shows during the regular seasons. We've considered other options, but I've never been happy with DirecTV and I don't want to lose all of our recordings ;-) As with all home based entertainment providers, I wish the price was better, but we're limited by the quality of the market.
