PenRip Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I am gathering names for those interested in receiving DishNetwork in English satellite TV service here in Boquete. I am in touch with this company and when I have a list of names, I will contact them about coming to Boquete to do installations. Learn more about the service at http://www.usatvsatfrompanama.com/. If interested, email me at chiriquiwoman@gmail.com. Penny Ripple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyS Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 That is very expensive. $750 for either Dish or DirecTV Puerto Rico. You can get DirecTV PR for $550. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken and Becky Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Our PR box just failed. We were told that Directv is going to new technology and our satellite receivers would no longer work. Also we could not get back our deposit because Directv PR doesn't want the old ones back...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyS Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Mike says we won't be losing his service. Maybe only Gladys' failed. Which one do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenRip Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 For days I have been wading through the mire of what is happening to DirecTV service and their satellite. I have located another source for DishNetwork and have heard from several that they are interested. Here's the latest: The PR Directv service provided by Gladys Archer has been going down for the last few weeks...first one home, then another...while some are still receiving a signal. Gladys sent an email saying that the satellite was 15 years old and they are replacing it with one that will no longer serve Panama. I spoke with Michael Delgado (the other PR Directv provider) today and he reports that he is not having problems with the satellite. He is going to call Gladys and find out what is happening to her, and will get back with me. They use the same satellite, so this all seems so strange. My question is: PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL IF YOU SUBSCRIBE TO PR SERVICE THROUGH MICHAEL DELGADO AND REPORT IF YOU ARE HAVING ANY PROBLEMS, OR IF YOU HAVE LOST THE SIGNAL. chiriquiwoman@gmail.com If indeed Michael Delgado can still provide service without problem, it is a much less expensive alternative to the new installation of the DishNetwork guy, who is coming here next week to do installations. We were almost ready to send him a $375 deposit (50%) when I decided to talk to Michael Delgado about this. I will report to you what Michael tells me after he talks to Gladys. So....I am just trying to figure out what the truth is about the various satellite TV providers. I do NOT need any information about the wide variety of internet sources for TV since our internet speed is very slow and cannot handle all the buffering. So please don't tell me about IPTV or your type of internet TV. That's not what this is about. We're ONLY interested in information from anyone about their current satellite service. Thanks...please respond right away, as tomorrow is our deadline for a decision on DishNetwork. chiriquiwoman@gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
