Wish I would have read your post first. We had Direct TV installed and they referred us to Century Link for Phone and Internet (at a discount). I can feel we made a big mistake and my gut feel is usually accurate. Perhaps their phone system is down or they have lost their internet connection !?!?!? Seriously - no excuses for treating people like this. I doubt we are isolated cases. Interested to hear from anyone who had good service.

I got good service! Two guys showed up the day before my scheduled install date and ran a cable from the green utility box to the side of my house - they never came to the door and I didn't question it. Maybe that was the "spot check." The next day, the installer was due between 9am-1pm; showed up at 9:30ish and was there about an hour. Labeled my remotes for me and explained how everything worked. I LOVE the Prism TV! I had DirecTV in CA and loved it, but you know it never rains in Southern California...and my sister here in TV has nothing but problems with her Dish TV, which is why I opted for Prism. No regrets here at all. Sounds like I got really, really lucky though.
