I was very hesitant to make the switch in February... Hated the idea of messing with my internet I am glad I made the switch... The total home DVR is sweet.. I got the MAX 10 internet decided not to go with Max 18 saved $10

The things I miss are having a clock on the box, being able to do QAM TV recordings on my computer, and having an external hard drive hooked to the DVR.

COX HD was driving crazy though, the sound and picture dropped alot

I was able to talk to the chat representative into giving me $350 Cash Back, plus used the code "EXTRAGIFT" when placing the order for an additional $25. So, for those signing up, use that as a starting point when negotiating with them.

love my uverse

As far as I know you need a box in each room because of their technology.. This offer is best for people who already have multiple cable boxes... You are probably better off sticking with cable

I'm switching from Comcast now and losing that is one of the things that stink, so no you won't get those channels.

$250 Cash Back would be very hot, if the ATT freaking U-Verse is available in my hood...

Signed up for U-Verse a couple months ago (glad i switched from Comcast) and they gave me two rebates ($200 + $50);

"Customers who purchase new U-verse U-200, U-300, or U-400 online may be eligible to receive $200 Cash Back" (AT&T rep came to the door and only would offer $100 rebate even after i told him the website would give me $200)

and

"Customers who order New U-verse TV 200+ and New HSIA during specific promotional windows, will receive an additional $50 Visa Gift Card."

Thanks for the heads up but please google complaints about Comcast, Dish network and Directv and you will also see TONS of complaints about people being billed for equipment they returned. It's a very common problem unfortunately!

sitcomchap said:Be careful with U-verse. I had the package with a DVR for a month because of the promo. Then, after a month, I downgraded to a package without a DVR (since I already had a TiVo with lifetime service). The U-verse technician swapped out their DVR for a cable box. And that is when the nightmare began. The DVR never got scanned back in, so I was billed for it. Upon seeing the bill, my wife was so upset that she canceled the U-verse service. However, the rep she spoke to mistakenly canceled our internet service. And you cannot just have the internet turned back on. You have to mail them the old box while a U-verse technician shows up to install a new one and turn the internet back on. And when I told the new installer that the old DVR was never scanned in, he laughed and said that they had piles of them laying around and he didn't think it would ever turn up. Anyway, after months of wrangling with them about the bill for the DVR, I finally got one person on the phone who believed that the technician took it and she removed it from the bill. But it was an ordeal. During that time, I also googled U-verse complaints and realized that I was not the only one who had an issue with being billed for equipment that had been returned.

thanks..will check it out
