Direct for sports...other than that there is little difference.
I had Dish and now have Direct TV.
Dish forced me to keep a phone line connected or charge me more per month.
Dish would not give me service without my SSN.
Dish would go out more during rain storms than Direct.
Dish remote ran down batteries every month. I’ve had Direct TV for a year and never had to change the batteries yet.
Direct TV channels come up faster upon changing.
I pay $32.71 per month. Granted that is first 12 months, write me next month for what it changes to.
Direct TV did not require SSN and I don’t have to have a phone line connected for best price.
