What's The Catch Behind Dish Network's Latest Promotion?

Dish Network will officially launch their new promotion come February 2008. This new promotion will replace their old one which offers the DishHD programming with a new package that offers 3 months of free programming. However, this irresistible offer comes with a 24 month term agreement.

Reading the terms and condition thoroughly, you will find notice:

• A credit of $39.99 will be applied to customer's 1st, 10th, and 20th month of service for a total value up to $119.97.
• Applicable to qualifying new customers with a 24-month term agreement,
• Customer must maintain AT100 or higher, DishLATINO or higher, or qualifying
• DishINTERNATIONAL programming,
• Offer is not available with DishFAMILY

Here are the good and bad news about this new offer from Dish Network. Although the terms are a little longer than the 18th months with the previous offer, you are still benefiting from this. Just do the mathematic and you will see that it is better than the old contract.

Dish Network will waive the $49.99 activation fee if you sign up with this 24 month contract package. This deal seems to be great. However, your account won't see a credit for the same credit on the bill of the first month. With this package, you will get access to a good repertoire of entertainment packages. This service from Dish Network is definitely better than the service from Direct TV. You can find out the difference between the two providers just by viewing a few comparison charts.

Dish Network provides you with better choices no matter you are in for local, cultural or international cultural. They also provide better and more economical packages for you to choose from. Dish Network has beaten all of their competition with all these benefits.

To add to that, for those who likes SIRIUS music, they can obtain it with Dish Network. An added plus which you cannot find with any other service provider.

With this new 24 months contract package, Dish Network will still deliver, install and maintain their equipment for free. Furthermore, no deposit is required. There are some dealers who charge up to $400 in deposit for Direct TV. However, this is only based on the specific dealer that I approach. Other dealer may have a better price.

Not so long ago, a flyer from Direct TV was dropped into my mailbox. In the flyer, it stated that Direct TV offers the best price and has no other competition. On that same day, ironically, I also receive a flyer from Dish Network. I made a comparison and found out that Direct TV is not the cheapest as it was stated. In fact, the packages that they offered were $10 more expensive for the basic package and $20 more expensive for the premium package.

In overall, Dish Network was rated number one by J. D. Powers for their customer satisfaction and service. With all the benefits from Dish Network, it is fair to say that there are worthy competitors around. However, with the dominance form Dish Network, Direct TV still has their strengths. For ordering online, both of these company offers 24 hours service. However, if you were to order via their call center, you won't get 24 hours service because their centers shuts down at midnight Eastern Standard Time Zone.

In conclusion, consumers should really go for Dish Network because they just beat down their competitors offering the best service and price which you cannot find in another service provider company. Do it now because when we reach February 17th 2009, the broadcasters go 100% digital. By then, if you don't have a cable or satellite TV system, you will have to live your life without TV.
