| Q: | "If I live in an apartment or condo can I still get a dish?" | | A: | In most cases, yes, if you have a balcony. The law requires that your landlord must give you permission. FCC rules permit residents of rental property to install a satellite dish, but only in certain areas. | | | |
| Q: | "Can I check my account status online?" | | A: | You may view your current or previous billing statements, add services, or make payments to your account online. Keep in mind that our Free installation offer requires that you agree to automatic monthly billing on your credit card. | | | |
| Q: | "Do I have to choose my programming right now?" | | A: | No. If you are not sure of which packages you desire, you can simply choose the basic programming package for now. You'll then have time to consider your options. Just keep in mind that you'll have to decide before the installer comes to your home. | | | |
