Last night we had a good size storm blow through and blew my HD Dish of the roof. I called dish and they want $99.00 for a service call to reinstall the dish. Is this normal? and they won't be out for a week.
Thanks

Another reason I tell people not to put their dish on the roof. Dallas is horrible for wind.

Weather is considered an "Act of God". Most warranties and service plans won't cover weather damage.

You Dallas people don't know what wind is, ours comes a 65-70 mph and it is dark brown, even while it's raining mud.
