Re: One Answer!

Only for some people.

And now with the Dish and DirecTV yearly rate hikes, they'll be up to cable rates in no time too.

There haven't been yearly increases yet on either dishnetwork or directv. I think there has been 3 increases in 10 or 11 years total.

This year and last both raised the prices, it was covered on many sites. »[DIRECTV] March 1st Price Increase - clearly states that last year and this year DirecTV increased its rates. And this site, »ekb.dbstalk.com/17, clearly shows the the same thing. You only fooling yourself if you think that they haven't raised the rates twice in the last two years.

I never said not 2 times in the past 2 years. That is a small trend to see yearly increases this year would then constitute yearly increases.

I said 3 or 4 times total in the past 11 years. At this point that is better then the bi annual raping at the hands of the cable cos

I have never seen bi annual increasing from any of the cable companies I have ever used, so it doesn't really matter to me. But now that they have had the taste of annual rate increases they are not going to stop. It's a start of a new trend for them, wait and see.

BTW, yes, you did say that there hasn't been yearly rate increases.

Guess you must have missed what you typed.
