Dish Network RIPPED OFF ROYALLY Las Cruses, Cloudcroft New Mexico

Wal-Mart does care about the companies they do business with and contrary to what Mattfast1 says, complaining to the HOME office of Wal-mart in Arkansas about that particular Sam's Club can get an internal Investigation into the practices set forth by them and Dish Network. IF Dish Network is telling them one thing and they are doing another, those at Sam's club will be reprimanded but if it's Dish Network who is telling Wal-Mart one thing to sell a service and doing another, Wal-Mart will pull this from any and all Sam's clubs.

Bottom line is if you have a complaint, Mattfast1 is here to make you believe that it's never Dish Networks fault. They are shady. They allow 3rd party sellers to lie about gifts and contract prices to secure the deal. Mattfast1, shame on you. These are legitimate complaints about the company and it's practices with 3rd party contractors. Many of the complaints are legit, it's people like you that give no help.

3. The first bill is for 2 months, as Dish Network charges a month in advance.

5. ALL HD receivers have a $6 per month HD Enabling Fee. This fee is waived with subscription to HD programming.
6. If you have a cancellation fee, you do not have service. What exactly does that fee show as?
7. If you do not dispute charges within 20 days of their assessment (either in writing or by phone), this constitutes the acceptance of such charges.

We visited Sams club recently and see that the same offer is still being touted in their store. I will see what Dish does and then if necessary, file a complaint to Sams club.
