I got dish about 2 months now and dish getting no satilite I call them 4 days with no tv on a snow weekend ridiculous then they lie about getting a 100$ gift card never got mine I'll be switching as soon as I can

Two months ago they told me I would have to start paying full price for starzs so I canceled it only kept the movie channel. I was told I had to cancel before the 5th or I'd have to pay for that month. I canceled before the 5 th they charged me $19. Said it was for prorated for the movie channel we kept. PRORATE WHAT. I've already had the movie channel so why would they prorate it. I've been with dish for 20 years never late on my bill. This is how they treat their "good " customers.not they are charging me $165 with no premium channels. Yes as soon as spring is here I'm done with dish.

Dish doesn't live up to the promises made during installation. And they try to increase your monthly bill periodically, with no changes in service. They told me my rate would stay the same for a year, but 3 months later it went up. Lastly, their advertisement on TV that they have 99% connectivity regardless of weather is PURE BULLS_IT. Every time it rains or is very cloudy, I lose all signals. Don't waste your money on these rip-off artists.

Never in my 42yrs on this earth have i ever had to deal with a company that lies consistently and the steal your money. I called 3 days ago to have a bundle package internet and cable. Long story short, they lied. So i call and cancel the service before it gets set up ask for my money to be returned and they have yet to return my money. Said it was returned and may take longer to hit my bank. Here i sit with my money still gone and they hung up on me while trying to get my money back today. I will be contacting my lawyer and i will be suing them. I wouldnt even give them a one star but had to to place my review.

DISH TV refuses to drop RT (Russian TV) which is owned by the Russian government. Money made by DISH from RT goes to Russia which buys bullets and bombs that kill thousands of civilians. Directv has already dropped RT, but DISH has not. Appalling and un-American. Blood is on DISH's hands!

If you are a sports fan I would not recommend dish network I cannot watch my Miami heat basketball game because they do not offer Bailey sports Network.

With them 13+ yrs they were always taking local/sports channels off n sposed to call a number to protest to get them bac on. No refund for offline channels n i pay xtra for sports. Cancelled in june, received bills next 3 months, had to call them every month n not cancelled each time, then got sent to collections! They r Rats n xpensive save yer $.

It's been six months now, and I have nothing but great things to say about the Dish network. I love the Hopper and Joey units, and particularly like that I can record hundreds and hundreds of hours of TV shows on my DVR with a great looking picture!

This is the worst company to be hooked up. Agents are unprofessional and deceiving. They do not resolve your problem and induce the customer to buy their plans. After so many years as a client, they have no consideration. No care... nothing...

I tried to cancel service after having to move. I was lead to believe I could not cancel service being under contract but I could pay a $5 month hold fee so I did but after 3 months, they started billing me the full amount. I told them I was disappointed with them and there response was to tell me I needed to pay them more. Absolutely shameful!

I was told I could pause my service for 6 months to decide if I wanted to continue service because it got to be too expensive for just me and i had not worked for 6 months. I called when the 6 months was almost up to cancel. They convinced me that i could stay on pause. I called a month later to cancel. Again they said you are such a valuable customer and you have so much history with us, why not continue to pause a few more months and maybe you can start your service again? I reluctantly said ok. Can you believe the next day they reactivated my service when my original 6 mos were over and stated in their notes i decided not to reactivate another 6 mos. Such a lie. Now i owe $120 for not one day of service! They said it was my fault, not theirs. The only fault of mine was trusting that they would do what they said they would do. I will never go back to them. They have lied to me twice, and i didnt know it until i got a $242 bill. Now i only get half back. So upset. I would give no rating but i was forced to give at least one star

My mom canceled service back in July 2020 so they cut off the service. She had no channels coming thru the dish box for over year. She called again September 2021 for new service, got added on a promotion of about $50 per month. I checked her account january 2022 and Dish had been automatically deducting a monthly payment of $54 since 2019, never canceling the account in 2021, only canceling service. She also was paying $91 per month since September, no promotion added. I talked to 2 reps and a manager. They all said she had service and they couldn't refund any money. I canceled service. STAY AWAY FROM DISH! THEY PREY ON THE ELDERLY!

Dish is a rip off! They are trying to charge us $140 for early termination, when we have been out of our contract for a long time now. They even charge you to return their crappy equipment! They are sorry and out for every penny they can get! Well they won't see that money! I called to see what the termination fee was about, and got told that bc we added a room, "they put us under another 2 year contract" lol without telling us anything. When I asked them how they could do that, without making ppl aware of this first, he said bc they can! They are nothing but rip offs! Streaming tv Is way better and cheaper!

Do you like to watch things such as the Olympics? You WON'T GET TO with Dish Network! And, when you want to express your frustration for the lack of basic cable channels, they will suggest you do their dirty work and complain to TEGNA to demand that they give Dish a better deal for the channel, what kind of business asks their customers to go begging on their behalf, DISH network, that's who. Guess which other networks still allows you to watch NBC and won't have you calling other companies to complain on their behalf, Xfinity, Direct TV, etc.
This move should be the end of Dish, but they have their customers by contract and they play on that to the tune of >$400 if you wish to cancel to do something simple like watch the Olympics when you pay $100 a month for cable! GETTING DISH WAS THE WORST DECISION, I WILL DROP THEM IMMEDIATELY ONCE THE CANCELLATION FEES ARE SO HIGH, DON'T GET LIED TO, GO TO ANOTHER CABLE SERVICE.

If you give verbal consent over the phone, you must cancel within 24 hours. You won't get the equipment, or the truth, until several days later when the technician arrives. If what the representative told you on the phone is not what you expected, Dish will hold you to an early termination fee because it wasn't canceled in the first 24 hours of the original call. It doesn't matter that they failed to tell you important information, they hold you to the 24 hours. This should not be allowed but that's how they get you! Beware!

We've been without the local ABC channels now for 5 months. DISH spews garbage from thier mouths regarding contract disputes. I will definitely cancel the service once my contract period is over. I don't like doing business with a company of liars and thieves. They charge you for the local channels but don't provide them as promised. Never, ever again will I use their service.

Dish Network is absolutely horrible and should be out of business. They pride themselves in randomly cutting off major networks to leverage fee disputes (such as CBS now, Disney / ESPN earlier, and that infamous negotiating bully -- the Pac 12 network. Even when they are up and running they have a search feature that can find neither shows nor networks. They interrupt programs with banner ads for -- wait for it --Dish Network. Their technology is vintage 1985 or so -- its a disgrace. We live in a rural area where there is little competition and are stuck in a 2 year contract. We are likely to ransom ourselves long before the contract expires. Negative 9.9 stars were that rating available.

We have been Dish customers for some time, but since they dropped NBC, we have been dissatisfied. So, we called to cancel. They are charging us a $200 early termination fee. That's unfair, they said we'd get our local channels and we don't. We're glad to be done with them, they are not the only tv provider available.

Dish customer for 10 years. NBC was dropped and when I did a chat about a football game the person lied to me and told me it was on channel 154, It was but at 3:00am the next day after the game. Dish is always fighting with one of the networks... I'm changing providers
