Miles for satellite TV service?

Is anyone aware of any current bonus offers (hotels or airlines) for subscribing to a satellite TV service?

Sorry I don't.

However, if you or any other FTer is interested I am a Club DISH Network member/subscriber and here's what I can offer to you.

I have free "gift cards" that will entitle you to:

1. Free hardware;
2. Free installation [up to four receivers]; and,
3. $49.99 off your first bill simply because I am referring you to DISH.

Furthermore, you do not need to commit to any period of programming and DISH guarantees their programming costs will NOT increase in the next 12 months.

DISH just came out with some new TIVO type satellite receivers that will record up to 100 hours of programming [PVR 510] which as a new DISH subscriber you can secure for free as part of this promotion as long as you make a 2 year commitment to stay with DISH. We just got one of these new receivers and they're great!

No I don't work for DISH and the only thing I get out of the referral is $5/month off my satellite bill. I was previously subscribed to DirecTV and left them for DISH about 4 years ago when their customer service took a nosedive. DISH is just as good in quality at less money and I have been very, very satisfied. So if I can help any FTers along the way, I am happy to do so.

Oh, you can pay for your satellite service using your airline mileage accruing credit card so there's a way to earn some air miles! In fact, if you pre-pay for a year's worth of satellite service DISH will even give you a discount [pay for 11 months and get 1 month for free (they don't actively advertise this discount but if you mention it, they'll make it available to you)].

Good luck and I hope this helps!

As pointed out by smarten, you can autopay (or manually pay, I suppose), your invoice by mileage-earning credit card.

I don't know of any other way to earn mileage for Dish/DTV.
