For me, the worst part about moving, besides the packing and the actual moving, is having all the utilities switched over. For some reason, I can never work it out so that everything is installed and on before we move into a new place. This means there will be a lapse in my internet access, and that stinks. You all know that I am on here all day long. The only good thing is that I will be able to unpack without the distraction of the internet.
I am also thinking about switching to Direct TV instead of switching over my current cable. Don't get me wrong, I am happy with my service, but I am paying so much each month, and I just wonder if the Direct TV Packages would save me money. Right now with cable, I get all of the premium channels, except STARZ, and combined with my phone and internet, I pay more than $150 a month.
That is a big chunk of change.
I found some Direct TV deals, and I can get over 200 channels for $45 a month, for the first 12 months. That is really good. I think I am paying over $80 just for my cable channels, and I don't think I get over 200. The only thing I didn't like when we had satellite television was how it would go out during storms. I wonder if Direct TV Service is better these days?
I guess there is only one way to find out. Those of you who use Direct TV, tell me the good and the bad, although I am sure it will be all good. I really haven't heard anything bad about them. I want to know about customer service, pricing, everything.

Ours goes out sometimes during a storm, but doesn't stay off long. Usually the picture keeps breaking up which is annoying, but again, it usually only lasts for a little while and even then, it doesn't affect all channels at once.
The pricing is hard to say because they have so many different packages, just have to call and ask. Good luck on whatever you decide.
We've had good customer service. I we have a problem of some kind, like can't find a channel we're supposed to have for example, we just call and they tell us what to do over the phone.
I have a package with my phone company that included my phone service, internet and Dish network. I haven't had many problems with the satellite going out. The weather has to be really bad for it to go and when it does it's not usually for very long.
Direct TV is ok, reliable and has good packages.
