The Ordering Process
The first thing you will do is order
your services. Click on one of the links above in order to visit the
retailers website and place your order. Or, use the toll-free number
in order to phone in your order. The retailer sites have tools that
you can use in order to help you make programming package and equipment
selections. You do not need to worry about making any final decisions
at this point. You can change your programming selections when your
free satellite dish is installed.
The next step is scheduling an installation
date. The Dish Network or Directv® customer service representative
will work with you in order to come up with the best date and time
for a professional installer to visit your home. Most
satellite TV installations can be completed in 48 hours from the time
that you place your order. If local installers happen to be available
in your area then your dish could be installed in as little as 24
hours.
The actual installation time varies
by the size of the job. The amount of time needed depends on the number
of televisions in your home. Under normal circumstances, two TV sets
can be completed in an hour and a half and four TV sets can be completed
in about two hours. Most installations will be completed with new,
high quality cabling so that you can get the clearest digital picture
that is possible for your TV. If you happen to have an existing cable
jack outlet that is of sufficient quality, the installers may be able
to provide your satellite TV service through the existing jacks.
Once your installation is complete
and your service is activated, you can then begin enjoying all that
digital satellite TV has to offer. If, after using your satellite
TV service, you should decide that you want some type of upgrade,
you can call the customer service number and make a request.
