Absolutely horrible customer service

I had to call up Dish network so many times to get a connection, that I lost track of it. Infact some colleagues at my office thought, I was attending interviews!!

After getting in touch finally and getting someone to come by for an installation, a no show and the person had the audacity to state that no one was at home, while my wife was waiting for them for the whole day!!!! On contacting customer service, I was told they would re-schedule it!!! WOW!!!

When the person did come by 1 full week later, he mentioned that the apartment did not have grounding!!!! So, he could not set this up, as per Dish Network Guidelines!!! Then he did suggest using one of the local retailers who would be able to install even though there was no grounding.

I spent enough time on the phone, to get this retailer to come by and do the installation!!!

Finally after all the things were in place, the first bill was wrong, overcharging!!! Called up the Customer Service, and they made the adjustment.

Second month, the same bill, with a 'Past Due' notice!!! They had the audacity to put the adjusted amount as the amount not paid!!! On speaking with the Customer Rep, unapologetic, brash young woman, she was considering waiving my 5 $ late fee!!! and the wrong charge!!! She still gave me a wrong amount owed.

Upon calling back immediately and talking to another Rep, the person mentioned that the 5$ late fee has been waived, but the 'wrong charge' is still owed!!!!! After some explanation, I'm told that the adjustments have been made.

Tell me, how much of bad service is acceptable???

I think Dish Network is the worst company ever. I returned their boxes three years ago when I signed on to Comcast, three years later I get a letter from a collection agency that Dish wants 743.09. They said that they never received their boxes. After being on hold for 45 minutes I now have to call back in 72 hours to see if they can find the boxes. Now what do I do if they can not find the boxes?

we received a phone call at 8:30p:m from dish network. I proceeded to tell the man named "larry"
we were not interested and to take us off the call list
for the 80th time. he was very crude and rude to me
on the phone and was not accepting my rejection at
all. so i handed the phone to my husband so he could hear what i was experiencing and wow that guy was
a total nut case. my husband asked to speak to a supervisor and of course there wasn't one on site.
we spent too much of our time i realize trying to get this person to hang up. after all he called us. we did
not call him.im very tired of these people and would like to know what our rights are to protect ourselves
from the abuse on the phone.
