| 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. | | | |
| Q: | What if I move before my one year commitment is up? | | A: | No problem! Dish will reinstall your system at your new residence for FREE so long as you commit to a new 12 month period of at least Top 150 programming at your new home. | | |
| 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. | | | |
