Right because they will only give you a half-day window and they assume you don't make more that in a half day of work. Sounds a bit ridiculous since they apparently are keenly aware of what an installers time is worth.
From: tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org [mailto:tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org] On Behalf Of Jeremy Rodebaugh Sent: Monday, October 18, 2010 10:54 AM To: tech-geeks@tech-geeks.org Subject: [tech-geeks] OT - Vent Does anybody else feel like the worst part of moving is actually having to deal with the local Cable/Satellite/Internet services or lack of service I mean??? I've waited three weeks for a certain satellite company (cough Direct TV)... The big day was here today, I had taken a half day off work and was waiting for my installers when I get the dreaded call... An automated call no less asking me to reschedule on the next available date two weeks from now... I'm obviously a little angry so I wait 30 minutes to get to an actual human... The poor customer service lady passes me on to a supervisor who begins to tell me my local office doesn't have any HD receivers available at this time but they will credit me $50 for me inconvenience... At this point I'm fuming. I've already waited three weeks, I've taken half a day off work, and now I have to wait another two at least and take more time off work... I simply ask can't you just come out, install the dish with a regular receiver, and then come back when the HD receivers when they come in... Her response was no we cannot send a technician out to your house twice... Seriously? At which point I said cancel my entire order, which she did and says have a great day... I was blown away...
