Re: One Answer!

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.
