As most of you know, I was de-charterized last week and feeling pretty good about myself. So, after some excellent feedback from my forum buddies, I was able to make an intelligent decision on my next provider and chose Dish because they get local channels at my house. I set the installation appt. for yesterday between 12:00 and 5:00. Starting to sound familiar? About 3:15, paranoia sets in so, I decide to give them a call. Laurie tells me I am next on the list as soon as the installer finishes up in Tallahassee. I explain there is a good chance that the installer will not be here by 5:00 as Tallahassee is in Florida and a good 5 or 6 hour drive. Not picking up on my dry sense of humor, Laurie wonders aloud why a Florida installer would be doing my installation. I then explain that the installer is probably in Tallasse, Al. and not Tallahassee, Fl. Fast forward- 4:27, Jeremy says the installer is almost finished and on the way. I told Jeremy if he cannot het here by 5:00, don't bother coming and cancel my subscription. 5:06- No installer, I get Jeremy again and tell him to cancel. He says to talk to his manager and he will work something out. I remain on hold for 4 minutes and Jeremy says his mgr. is busy. I say I want to cancel He says he has to switch me to cancellations for that and it may take awhile because they are very busy. Wow, imagine that. He transferred me, I sat on hold for 2 minutes and hung up. As luck would have it, there was a flier in the mailbox promoting a new Direct TV package. Onward and upward, Direct TV it is.... local channels be dammed.
