Poor Quality!
by Raul on Nov 3rd, 2008 at 11:05 PM:
When it works, this receiver is pretty nice. Delivers a very solid picture. The problem is that 3 of them have died on us. Every time it's the same thing. It reboots and then "loses signal" for good. The guy who has been swapping them out admitted that these are all refurbs, so technically none are brand new. That makes sense given so many people have had problems with these things. I went with Dish Tv because they had a couple of channels I really wanted. What a mistake. They subsequently dropped those channels and I ended up with crappy quality equipment. WHAT A MISTAKE! My contract runs out in December and I can not wait to go to DirectTV.
Don't do it!

I have had 4 622 recievers over the last year. They have big problems. When one goes out all they do is send you another rebuilt one . It won't last either

I have had two receivers replaced in the past 10 months. You loose everything you had recorded when it goes out. All it will do is turn on and reset itself over and over gain. If I had it do do over I would go with Direct.
Terrible

We upgraded to HD and got the receiver, it only lasted 1 week, they send a replacement and the second received lasted 1 week again! We cancelled our account over this agravation of not being able to watch tv. The receivers were running hot, and we constantly got the " No Signal" thing. They wanted to send us a third receiver, but really in less than a month...they won't admit there is a problem with the box, that should have been fixed before they came out. We loved Dish Network and had been customers for over 7 years, they were the only ones that had a French Channel ( i'm french) and i gave it up because it was so bad!
