DISH TV sports packages

DISH has over 130 sports channels available to add on with prices starting at $4/mo.

DISH TV deals and promotions

New DISH customers can get special offers that include free limited-time streaming, access to special channel packages or gift cards up to $300 when signing up.

DISH TV equipment

Few TV providers can compete with DISH’s Hopper 3 device, which can record up to 16 shows at once and supports 4K viewing and streaming app access.

You’d think such an advanced device would come with a hefty rental fee, but rental fees for the Hopper 3 and smaller boxes, “Joeys,” are actually pretty reasonable compared to other providers.

DISH TV fees

The rental fees are inexpensive with the Hopper 3 monthly rental fee at $10 and the Joey rental fee is $5 each. It’s not all good news, however. There is an upfront fee of $50 to get the Hopper 3, and if you want 4K-enabled Joeys, you’ll likely have to pay another $50 upfront for each additional device. So if you get the Hopper 3, plus two 4K Joeys, initial costs could add up to $150.

Other DISH fees

• Local channels: There is a fee of $12/mo. for local channels that is built into the cost of your DISH package
• Regional sports fee: Expect the regional sports fee to add around $3/mo. to your bill
• Early termination fee: Canceling before your two-year contract expires could result in an early termination fee of $20 for each month remaining on your contract

DISH TV installation

DISH advertises free next-day professional installation of their satellite TV services.
