I have been with DISH for a year or so, and have NEVER been late with my bill.

Unfortunatley, had a family emergency and had to fly out of town. I get a call from my wife, then my 2 sons are crying that the TV is shut off. I have no CC on me or anything except cash when I travel. I get on live chat and ask for them to turn my services on until monday when I get home and they cannot.....

 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Hi, my name is Beverly Rose (ID: DNA). How may I help you?
me: hello yes can u pull my account up?
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Hello, David!
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): I will be happy to assist you with that.
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Thank you for your patience.
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Thank you for providing your account information and PIN when launching the chat. I have your account loaded and have verified your information.
me:: why is my service disconnected?
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Upon checking, the current balance on the account is $85.27 that needs to be taken care of in order to restore your service today.
me: can you please restore and i will pay monday
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Regarding your request, in order for us to restore the service today,$85.27 that needs to be taken care of.

me: i am never late with my bill and the one time i have to go out of town for an emergency my wife calls and says kids are screaming sue to no TV
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): I understand how you feel about this matter as I'm a consumer as well, David. 
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Please be advise that you have a pay-in-advance account, which means that just like a prepaid cell phone, you must pay for your services in advance before we turn them on.
me: give me ur manager

me: do not say another word
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Let me check the available manager for you.
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA): Please let me get you over to my supervisor. Please hold on for a moment.
 Supervisor - Antoinette (ID: 1ML): Hi, my name is Supervisor - Antoinette (ID: 1ML). Please give me a moment to review your conversation with the previous agent.
 Beverly Rose (ID: DNA) has left the chat.

 If you NEVER miss a payment then how exactly is your PRE PAID service turned off? SOunds like you DID miss a payment and are just acting like a child. Perhaps you should just pay what you owe. Trying to place the blame on THEM because YOU did not pay your bill only shows YOU to be a immature dipwad with no real redeeming qualities. What it also tells everyone is that YOU leave your family in a lurch with no way to resolve these issues.

How is this a Ripoff?  You are being unreasonable.  Glad you mentioned your kids were "crying".. should help get more sympathy.

Nope, I don't work for them.
