Installers often work for contractors so that DirecTv and Dish Network can not be sued for damages. If you think you might have to take legal action, then you need to get something with the contractors company name, sometimes its on the truck but sometimes its not. It will be on the work order that the customer signs. Installers will often lie to you and tell you they work for DirecTv or Dish Network this is a bad sign it tells you they dont want you to know what company they work for.

Also in many states installers are required to have a Electricians low voltage license for every city he works in. In such cases, the local law will also require the installer to give you that license number. Contact your local city hall/ building department to see if a low voltage license for satellite installers is required in your area. If its required you can forbid unlicensed installers.

Contractors (DirecTV/Dish Network) can be held responsible for actions/damages done by subcontractors (installers). Lighthope Pearls of Wisdom - Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
