I agree with you 100%.

Dish Network’s Pre-Paid program is the way to go for sure. It is also great for customers who don’t want to be locked into a 2 year contract, or as you mentioned a second home.
I live in Michigan and I get my share of customers with summer homes up here.

pre pay is great for us. with our work hours getting to radio shack is the hard part sometimes, if we could bye the pre paid card on line would be great. thanks

Pre-Pay with Dish Network is a great alternative to the 1 year or 2 year agreement. Some pay tv customers don’t want to be locked in!

i dont understand why i have to pay over 300 dollars whn i already have my own tvs and two satellite dishes that are sitting in my yard

i believe the credit qualification for dish is a score of 580 which is really bad credit..dish tries to get everyone approved for free equipment.now dish has the best the equipment in the industry even if u have a satellite on your home u still need a receiver (dish offers the best receivers in sat. tech) put it like this dish is a mercedes and other companies are like honda dont expect to have bad credit and get a mercedes with no money down..Dish is the best service so they need the best customers(customers with good credit).

If I buy a dish and a receiver from someone else do I still need service from dish or can I just set it up and watch free tv?
