Try the classified section of your local newspaper - online or hardcopy.

Hi,

I got the satellite and dish/receiver installed, someone programmed it for the desi channels and few american channels. I payes total amount $500 . Did I pay too much?

Did they made me pay too much?

And then for a week it was fine, after a wk the card got ZAPPED and the connection broke away. Now, I have to beg them to reset it to the new password. I had no idea that there is so much complication in this thing. I payed $500 just like that and now that the card is zapped, I dont know what to do ??

Please guys can you help me, it was my hard earned money and that \"bastard\" he didnt tell me about this complication. I am in calgary, can anone suggest what to do in such a situation.:(

thanks in advance.



a lot of people give at least 30 days guranttee to repair card free if there are any issues. same for the hardware that you buy.
you can get the setup of 2 dishes + reciever + 1 card programmed and 1 month guranttee installed for arnd 400.

some may even ask you to buy a programmer for like 150 which enables you to programme your card at home.

but the bottom line is that each of there satellite dealers are bigtime thiefs.

Guys,

I have had a dish for the last 5 years and not once has it been zapped!

How?

First, I registered the dish in the US using my brothers address and gave my credit card for them to deduct monthly. This is the ONLY legal way and the only way not to lose money!

I had a bad experience in the first year when a crook tried to con me, much like some of you guys have been conned.

Use this method. You can register with the company through the website.

Hope this helps.

err... there is absolutely *NO* *legal* way you can get US satellite services in canada.. the only thing you can get legally in canada is either bell expressvu or star choice... even what you suggest of using a US address is not legal, its called a "grey market" because when you initially get the service this way, you can, but if the satellite company finds out you are actually in canada, they are required by law to disconnect your service...
