I prefer Dish. I had Direct for 2 years and as soon as my 2 year contract was up I switched to Dish. I wish I could tell you why easily, but I cant. I think Dish is more accessible when there are questions, etc. It seems I get more HD for less $. There are too many middlemen between you and Direct. I thought I had signed up with Direct directly, but I was hooked in by a ‘middleman’ and when my unit was struck by lightning...I thought I would never get to the right person to solve my problems.
It just feels like Direct lives by the ‘Greed is Good’ mantra and Dish is less voracious and more tuned in to their customers. Dish costs less $, also if only a few dollars, at least I think so.

Couldn’t agree more.
Had Direct for three years, every three to four Mo’s had increases to my bill. Started out 41 monthly, end of third yr. 82 dollars per mo. I called them asking for a reduction in their price, no a-vale. When I had Dish installed, I called them (DT) and ask them to end my service. Oh my, they then begin promising me the moon and put my rate back to $41.00 mo. I told them not to waste my time, I called you three times and you would not decrease the mo. service payment and now that I have Dish you are willing to listen? go pound sand.
