    And is it the US work culture that is making him "poor?" I'd say no, it's his own decisions. Sure the 250k house is great and all, but a 100k house is just as good.

  5. Really? on Refunding an Xbox Live Annual Renewal Fee? · · Score: 1

    Over the summer I was on a business trip and I had oredred some Papa John's Pizza, for delivery. I kept my receipts and when the credit card bill came a month later ( and I was home) Papa John's had overcharged me like 3 bucks. I called it in and the next month the WHOLE charge was credited back to my account. I sent no letter or anything written. Just the call.

    On a side note, I didn't want the whole charge refunded, I just wanted to be charged what I was fair.

    The only drawback with the DSS systems is that local channels may not be available (or if they are available, will run you an extra $5 per month)


    I just got my locals Friday. I was paying 12 bucks to get the network feeds. With my locals I save 4 bucks a month by dropping those feeds.

  16. Re:Get Direct TV, here's why on Cable TV Versus Satellite TV? · · Score: 1

    I hate exclusive deals like that. I would never get the Sunday Ticket but I'd like the choice on my DISH.

    How bout we give you BingoTV and you give us the Sunday Ticket?

  17. DISH. on Cable TV Versus Satellite TV? · · Score: 1

    1. I have a DISH for over 3 years now. Even with the big storm the east Coast got last week, I had perfect reception. The only time I can remember losing a signal, was in the summer once or twice for 10 seconds BEFORE the storm actually came. Since getting the DISH 500 I have never lost a signal.

    2. You can't as far as I know, use a Tivo you bought at the Wal-mart. Well not at least how you'd want to use a Tivo.

    3. DISH requires a Credit card or a Checking account now in order to get the free install. This sucks, but too many people were trying to get free DISHes when the had been previous customers.

    4. Locals, DISH has the most locals of the DBS companies. I just got mine and the two which they have a direct optic link to are perfect, the others, which they get Off the Air, are good but you can tell. I blame the locals for not allowing the direct conenction though. It's in the best interest of the locals to play nice with the DBS companies but they all seem to be bought and paid for by the cable companies.

    5. Don't fall for any 'deals' that the cable company may make. Winbacks and the like are nice for 3 months but ask what your bill will be like in a year. DISH had for three years, price locked their services, and my last price increase was 2 bucks. I dare you to find a cable company that hasn't raised rates in the last 5 years.
