Signed up and got 2 years for 2 cents. Also pleased in that they have a lot going on on the the 5 channels provided. One is even adult station.

dx23 12-23-07 07:50 PM

Where can I find the offer?

The Cow 12-23-07 07:54 PM

1. Call 1-800-333-DISH
2. Go to Billing
3. Ask about a Cinemax Promo for 1 Cent for signing up for paperless billing

kvrdave 12-24-07 12:37 AM

I currently have all the channels. Will this reduce the cost of the total package?

TheOne 12-24-07 01:15 AM

What if I already have them charge my credit card each month already? Can I still do the promotion? I do, however, still get a statement but it says that $xx.xx amount will be charged to my credit card by x date.

Heat 12-24-07 01:26 AM

So you get all five channels (not counting the sixth channel, the HD channel)?

5StarMAX
Cinemax (West)
ActionMAX
MoreMAX
Cinemax (East)

Silly Burrito 12-24-07 07:07 AM

No, you get the HD channel too. It's a great deal!

Septemberbaby 12-24-07 07:23 AM

Has anyone w/ Directv called to see if they'll offer something similar?

zuckuss 12-24-07 08:20 PM

Thanks for the info! I now have Cinemax for .01 a month for the next two years.


THANKS!

Qrusher14242 12-24-07 08:53 PM

so can you still get it if you already do paperless billing and pay by CC?

Does this mean automatic credit card billing? I'd like to do this offer, but I don't like to have anything billed automatically to my card.

The Infidel 12-25-07 04:01 PM

And the answer to my question is.......?

I already have autopay and just had to sign up for paperless billing to get the two years. You may be able to do this with just one or the other, it's worth a try. I did it through the live cs chat on the site by the way.

ESUguy 12-26-07 01:19 PM

I just did a live chat with Dish, and they signed me up right then and there. I was already paperless, and it didn't matter!

johnglass 12-26-07 11:22 PM

I signed up for this last week. Most people on FW are reporting that it will work if you already have auto-pay and paperless billing, but not if you currently have or have had Cinemax within the last 6 months.

Since the DISH people are already coming to this thread, figured I'd ask here.

Does anyone know of any decent deals (and cost) of getting DISH for 5 TVs. My dad is looking to get rid of cable and wants to either save money on his current cable bill of $50/mo or pay a bit more, but also get more. He doesn't want any premium channels and would be happy with either the 200 or 100+ packages. He wants DVR but doesn't want HD. I see the prices on the website, but is there anything else floating around?

How many different signals does he really need? Can he live with two different signals? If so... get the DVR 625 (link is to the brochure, .pdf file).

It is a duo-tuner in one receiver so there's no extra $5 per month fee, and there's only one DVR fee ($6 a month but this is well worth it). This is what I have. The two tuners can each record on the 100 hour DVR.

As far as the autopay goes... I'm still a little leary about letting any company do an autopay. I'll probably do it in the end, 1 cent movie channels would be very nice (especially with my DVR...).

SmackDaddy 12-27-07 07:49 AM

Thanks!! Signing up as I type. I hate auto-pay, but 6 movie channels for $.02 is too good of a deal.

Heat 01-12-08 11:33 PM

I just signed up for the Cinemax deal yesterday. You'll get the Cinemax channels for a penny through January, 2010.

I highly recommend getting into the habit of looking at your bill online each month before it's charged to your card.

Anyway, another deal that Dish Network has is that their price of an annual subscription is equivalent to the price of 11 months of programming. That is, pre-pay for 11 months and get a free month.

dx23 01-31-08 12:53 AM

The CS only let sign up for one year. Any trick to add more years for $.01?

Darknite39 01-31-08 01:41 AM

Is it true that dish service requires a connection to a phone line? I'm hoping to get one of their basic packages soon, but if I need a phone line, I don't think I'm going to be able to swing it (yeah, I know, but I'm on a pretty strict budget).

bigjim25 01-31-08 01:58 AM

I was on Dish & I didn't have a phone line. I told them I wouldn't be buying PPV + I had no phone at the time.
