Direct tv vs dish network

Don't know about prices or customer service. But I would say Dish has better equipment. I have Dish and my brother got talked into Direct by AT&T and he now wishes he had gone with Dish because he's constantly have his boxes swapped out. I had my equipment upgraded over two years ago and have never had anything replaced.

I had Dish. No complaints. Hopper was great. Loved how it automatically skipped commercials on DVR playback. Could watch all of my channels on my phone, etc.

I switched to DirecTV for a bundled deal with ATT. Not bad, but what pisses me off most is most of the channels I'd actually want to watch on my phone aren't available. Come May my 2 year contract will be up and I'll likely look at switching either back to Dish or to Charter.

My parents and in-laws both have Direct TV.
They visited my house for an extended periods of time over the last two months, and both are talking about switching to Dish.

I've had directv for a month now. The price was unbeatable as they are now including all hd DVR receiver fees. I pay 85 for internet with uverse and directvs entertainment package. I priced out plans with streaming, Comcast, and dish and they didn't come close.

The boxes suck with direct. It is very slow changing channels. I have gotten used to using the guide to channels surf.

The only other issue has been customer service, it's awful. I won't go into all the details, as it's a very long story, but I have had 2 installers come on two separate days, had to make 5 phone calls after the fact to get my bill corrected, and I still can not watch channels on the directv app or sign into channel providers apps. I'm going to call again tomorrow to try to get that straightened out.
