This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I was a customer of Dish Network for almost 10 years. In August of 2009, I moved discontinuing my services with them. A week later, Dish Network sent me two boxes in which I was to return two receivers. I returned both receivers on 8/25/2009. Today, January 29, 2010, nearly 6 months later, I receive a letter in the mail from Dish Network indicating that my debit card would be charged $200 for an unreturned receiver. Obviously, I was upset and quite confused, so I called Dish Network. I cannot begin to tell you the rude and unprofessionalism portrayed by Dish Network with what was clearly a mistake on their end. I spoke to Mandy (U6T) and Darlene (6PR) with their manager Terry giving information to them intermediately.

When an account is closed with Dish Network, boxes are sent almost immediately for receivers to be returned, and I did just that – returned my receivers. Once again, I returned these receivers in August of 2009. If receivers are not returned within 30 days, the customer is billed for all unreturned receivers. My question to Dish Network was if my account was closed in August, AND if customers are billed 30 days later on unreturned receivers, why am I just now, in January of 2010 getting this bill? In response, Darlene and Mandy agreed that something went wrong within the system. I said “Exactly! Please remove this charge"! They refused to remove the charge unless I supplied them with a tracking number for the unreturned receiver. I said, “What if I can’t find the paperwork anymore? What if there was a fire? Then what do I do”? I was told that I could call the UPS main number and get that information. This information was completely false. When I called UPS, I was told that they could not supply me with that information. Fortunately, I was able to find the receipt with the tracking numbers I received from the UPS store from day I returned the packages. It took me hours of digging through paperwork, but I found it - thank goodness. My entire day was ruined because of this, but I had to find that receipt – it was my only recourse. When I called Dish Network with the tracking number, I was told my account would be credited on my next statement. I said “I haven’t received a statement from you folks in 6 months – my account has been closed. I don’t even live at that same address”! At that point, I asked for some type of confirmation as proof my credit card would not be billed. Unfortunately, I was not provided any kind of confirmation – basically it was just their word. Scary! I can only hope that Dish Network does not bill my credit.

In my opinion, this is a scam being run by Dish Network. Times are hard and these companies are looking for any way to make extra money. Many people do not keep receipts from packages sent six months prior. One would think the issue is over and perhaps discard the receipt, and that’s exactly what Dish Network seems to be banking on. My advice is when dealing with Dish Network receiver return system, KEEP YOUR TRACKING NUMBER DOCUMENTATION! This way when they hit you with a $200 bill for a receiver that you returned six months prior, you have some type of recourse. If you lose that receipt – you have nothing! No recourse at all. I hope this saves one person from the horrific experience I’ve been through with Dish Network.

Well you're not going to believe this. Dish Network just called me again asking for the $213.00 to cover the cost of the receiver - the one I sent back in August. I haven't heard from them since January (see above). Here it is two months later, and they call again asking for the tracking number. If I didn't have that number, I would have been accountable for the $213.00. Now tell me this isn't some kind of scam. Per Charles (ETS) my account is at a zero balance - at least it is for today. I'll keep the tracking number handy at my desk for the next call. At some point, Dish Network will see this scam isn't going to work on me. I have my tracking number - do you? I hope so.

I dumped another cable company because anytime you needed service you got to speak to someone in a third world country . Two weeks ago I called for service for a problem with THE DISH . I talked to some [censored] in India,who didn't have a frick'n clue! Can't believe they can't find enough ignorant people in this country. They must all be in management !

Where are the boxes? , It's been two weeks and I wan' to return your equipment .

I was just charged $600 for unreturned equipment that I shipped off a month ago from my home in illinois now I have moved and I am in Georgia and I was billed $600 for equipment I already returned ! Stressful and I’m so disappointed with this company and I will never return as a customer I will stick to my roku stick it’s better programming than dish network with their overpriced packages with few channels anyways! Definitely a scam preying on people getting their equipment back then scamming people saying they never received it and re charging people for it! I’m getting a lawyer involved and going to sue for damages moving to a new state with 2 kids is hard and for them to take $600 from me for something I returned after being a customer for 10 years is unheard of ! Scammers! I will tell everybody about this shady business !

Dish is by far and away the worst provider of satellite service in the industry... Subscribers should
read the fine print in there contract prior to signing,

Dish can remove or block out favorite channels, but will not adjust your monthly statement or fees.

Expect service interruption with passing storms or over cast conditions.

With this in mind, I elected to discontinue my service one month prior to my commitment date and
in return for lack of service and programing, Dish elected to charge me a fee for deactivation .

As President of our Home Owners Association I will recommend to our members a contract with
Spectrum at half the monthly fees Dish is charging.

Dish network has really shoddy installers. In the last two week, my wife and I found that the cable running from my house to the dish was installed just under the leaves. Any reasonable installer would have buried the cable under the ground to prevent damage to the cable. We contacted dish and informed them of the problem and was told that it was up to the installer how the cable would be installed.
It took them 9 days to arrive for repairs to the cable. My wife and I installed a 3/4" pvc conduit and placed a string to make the job some easier when they did arrive. Please, watch how the installers place the cable at your home.

OMG. I am so glad I found this forum.
I had to return the equipment for 2 different accounts (mine and my ex-wife's). I did that back in June 2018.
I had called before that to confirm that it is still okay to return the equipment so I can get my money back. The accounts were 2 or 3 years old (and I had already been charged for the equipment). Long story, but we were going through a separation etc.
Anyway, after confirming with Dish, I sent back both the receivers and all the remotes and manuals and everything else they asked for. I used the UPS boxes they had sent (I had kept it all in one place in the basement).

They received the boxes. I talked to them after that and they confirmed everything.

And then, I stopped hearing back from them.
I called once every few weeks and same answer: "everything looks good. We have sent it to the refunds department. You should be hearing back from them soon"
Finally in OCTOBER, I got annoyed and asked to escalate the issue. I finally talked to someone in the "Office of the President".
She seemed very helpful - even gave me her extension number!
But then NOTHING. Dead silence.
I have called her at least 3 or 4 times since then. I just get her VM.

AND no money back.
I finally talked to another agent today and all he could say was: "this is all I can do - send another note to the refunds department".

WTF?

What are my options? Should I call the State AG's office?

I mean this is crazy :( :( :(

Thanks for all your help, folks.

Today I received DISH return equipment box w/instructions, which I followed.
Problem #1. DISH box included molded plastic inserts that did NOT fit the LNBF piece they asked to be returned, so I contacted DISH to ask how to proceed. DISH operator ID# (N28) presumably checked with his supervisor then told me that I do NOT have to return the LNBF, that I would NOT be charged for not returning it. (That's why I requested proof in writing of his statement (email?), but the only proof that he could give me was his Operator ID#.)
Problem #2. DISH also instructs to return their "NODE", which I could NOT find anywhere. I told the same DISH operator and he told me that I did NOT have to return this item, either. He told me that it's probably either buried underground on my property, or it's under my house in a crawl space, and that I would NOT have to explore to find it. He confirmed with his supervisor that I DO NOT have to return the NODE, that I would NOT be charged for not returning it, either.
Well, IDK folks, should I "trust" DISH? I really wish that DISH had Equipment Drop-Off stations, so that we didn't have to go through this haggling/stress. Oh, and thanks to those who advise others to hold onto the shipping tracking receipt, like forever.

Going through a similar situation. I returned my modem with all its contents within the 15 day period and I called Dish to confirm they received the package. Dish informed me that they received the box, but it didn't have the modem inside. Now I'm filing a shipping claim through UPS for the missing material. Sounds a little scammy to me..but then again, the equipment may have gotten stolen.. who knows. If UPS accepts the claim, Dish will get the replacement cost of $79.00.

Same going on with me I Massachusetts. I sent the equipment back NOT checking my PO tracking #. Three weeks later my 89 year old mom is bombarded with calls saying they never got the package. Talking with quite a few old customers in the area is seems they loose more equipment than they receive.

OMG-What's your job title, "COMPLETE ### BLOGGER"? What you don't get is it's getting out there in the real cash money consumer consciousness that you people are liars, incompetent and involved in perpetuating an ongoing systematic consumer fraud business focus that is entirely subject to tracking and proving criminal infractions on a wholesale basis. Dish will suffer corporate loss blame and conspiracy due to this and...well, your probably going to be one of the defendants. How's that gonna feel when it all hits the fan and a class action suit as well as real criminal charges start to be applied. Bet your corporate legal experts circle the wagons and you find yourself on the outside without as much as a tiddleedo from these people. Have fun then STOOGE!

Same thing going on here with me! What a SCAM! I have called two times and requested a return box and have yet to receive it and the Dish agent (5SY) just told me that my 30 days runs out in 5 business days and she will not give me an extension so my 30 day return period is going to be up before I receive a return box and have enough time to ship the receiver back. If they charge me for this I am going to go to small claims court and sue them. This is just wrong and TOTALLY UNETHICAL. I have had service with them for 8 years and never had a serviced interruption for non payment. So now I'm being told that I can't talk to a supervisor because they are "not available" and the agent was told that there was nothing they could do and they will not send me documentation of their expedite for the return box. Now I am talking to the agent supervisor and he (XKN) has now told me because of the receiver type I have I have 70 days from disconnection and he is sending out another box. He also told me that I was supposed to return this box on the dish itself unless I could not reach it. NO ONE HAS ASKED TOLD ME THAT UNTIL TODAY and I have asked each time I have called in for the return box. He said he can waive that charge for that return and note the account...SO...if I wouldn't have asked that question again today, there would have been a charge for that after I returned the receiver and remotes. PATHETIC and it appears to me that they do not want to make returning this equipment easy and are banking on revenue from associated non-return charges.

I agree wholeheartedly with the original poster when they say KEEP ALL DOCUMENTATION OF YOUR RETURN and I might add that you keep it indefinitely.

I have just been accused by Dish Network of owing them $360 for "unreturned equipment" that I did return to them in 2012 via the return packaging they provided. I heard nothing more from Dish until now, 2014, two years later. They are using the fact that I no longer have my return receipt to their advantage. This charge is showing up on my credit report as a negative item dated March 2014. Their customer service department is less than helpful, although after an hour I did finally get the person I spoke with to file a discrepancy report about these charges and was told that I need to contact UPS for a copy of my return receipt even though they cannot provide me a specific date in 2012 to assist UPS in doing so and furthermore, that I was not the UPS customer, Dish Network was. I have contacted UPS and am waiting to hear back but I am not expecting to get much help from them since I am unable to provide them with any of the information they will need.

I am considering filing a class action lawsuit against Dish Network, it is clear that I am not the only former customer they have tried to do this to. If anyone else is interested or knows of one already filed that I can join please contact me.

I am going through a similar problem right now. I just emailed a Alicia this. I really dot know who else to call.

I do not know if you are still in the position you once held at dish but I figured this is worth a try.

About (2) months ago my hard drive on my receiver went out. I called dish and they sent out a replacement receiver. I installed the replacement receiver and shipped out the broken one. After a month I was receiving messages stating they haven't received my receiver and were going to charge me $300 to cover the cost of it. Keep in mind I have been a customer for roughly (7) years. After talking to a representative in the beginning of June I was reassured that there was not a problem and It will be found. Now fast forward to last Thursday, I received another voice mail regarding this receiver. I called once again and the representative stated it was in transit and would be documented that I called. Today I received and email saying that I would be charged $300 on my next bill.

Once again I called this morning and talked to another representative who said there was not a record of my phone call last week and there was nothing he could do. I am stuck here and am really frustrated! Can you let me know how to proceed?

My husband just received a collection notice today for equipment he retuned to dish over FIVE years ago! After reading these posts I am trying to prepare my self for the confrontation ahead! I agree with all of you that this is simply a scam on DISH's part to get money out of people. You see there is this trick about companies charging accounts off and selling them to collection agencies. They do that so quickly, and even though they may reach an agreement to "settle" the account with the customer directly, they never pull the account back from collections. Once that collection company owns the account, the customer is stuck in the wonderful world of LIMBO! Do yourself a favor, stay far, far away from these companies!

Shame on me for not having the tracking number for the stuff I RETURNED IN THE BOX THEY SENT ME! Maybe if I didn't return this 'equipment' they could have notified me at some point in the last 5 years? Anyway, thanks for nothing DISH! I really wanted to like you but we're done.

Your post caught my attention as I found it interesting and would be more than happy to assist you! We hate to see you go. Please understand that not everyone uses our method of shipping to return our equipment to us so we don't feel that it's fair to increase everyone's monthly rate to cover the cost of shipping. You are by no means required to use our shipping method but we make the option available to you if you choose to. Please do not worry about returning the pole mount as it's too large of a piece of equipment to hassle with and not significant enough to return. I'd love to discuss this matter further with you if you have any additional questions, so feel free to private message me and I'll await your response!

I'm scared to send my equipment in after reading all of this. I was told using their shipping labels would be $17 (which I think is BS) and that I have to detach something white from my dish. Luckily, my dish is on a pole in the ground, but Ive moved so now I have to knock on the new tenant's door to see if I can come into their back yard and get this thing from the dish. Do I send that thing in with the receiver or does it go separately? No one specified to me and I'll be contacting BBB if they try to screw with me later saying that I didn't send my stuff in "correctly." Any advice? Ive moved to no cable of any kind because it has turned into such a hassle. I love my free broadcast tv!

I have a similar situation with DISH. I moved from my house back in march of 2010 and had DISH network for over 6 years. DISH sent me two boxes to send back the two receivers I had. I packed and sent the receivers. A couple of months later they sent me a bill for over $450, saying that they had only received one receiver. I told them I sent both and they asked for proof. Unfortunately, I lost all shipping receipts during our move and could not find the receipts. DISH sent my case to their collection agencies and until today, they are still trying to collect. I will never pay $450 for that old receiver, much less knowing that I sent it back, as instructed. Like everybody else in this forum, I truly believe DISH network is committing fraud and trying to milk their customers and ex-customers for whatever they can. After this experience, I have been telling my friends and anybody that listens to stay away from DISH. They have one of the worse customer support representatives in the industry, who only care about making a profit without regards for their customers.

Dish is trying to charge me for the equipment I already sent back in October 2012 from washington, I now live in California and its almost March. Ups says my tracking label that DISH paid for isnt showing any history even though I witnessed UPS pick up my box. This is my first and last experience with DISH EVER. I am getting phone calls and voicemails saying i halfto pay $400 for the equipment I already returned with my OWN BOX bc they failed to ever provide me with one despite they calls i have requested for one before my move out date. f*** DISH

I had a similar situation, but unfortunately no means of recourse.
One of my receivers had gone bad and I contacted dish for support. They shipped the replacement soon enough, but my roommate returned the old box with their included USPS label... which had no tracking number or receipt.
Like clockwork, they billed me for the box three months later.

It was an expensive lesson learned.
I will be switching to direct TV in the near future, and ponying up for signature confirmation when I return the dish equipment.

You will regret "Switching" to Directv ! Ask around about their Genie Dvr At& T has gone bankrupt at least 3xs!
their gene DVR erases your recorded show everyday I have to unplug at least 3-4xs to try to get back some of the programs. I called the other day & got an Arrogant At&t Queens & she told me they were working on it & there was nothing she could do.
It has been like this for 7 months? No offer to cut down the monthly charge for my trouble & it is getting worse So she hung up on me! I am going to miss them in may 2019 when my contract is up!

Hi, vivekjm! I've reviewed your question and wanted to offer some input. Make sure that all parts, including the receivers, smartcards, and remote controls, are in the box(es) and that they are securely taped. What you also want to be sure to do is obtain a receipt that has the tracking number for that shipment coming back to us from the UPS agent so we're able to track its location should it get lost or delayed.

Hope that helps!

Hello, Thank you for your valuable inputs. I just canceled dish network few days ago, and I was told that I would receive boxes for equipment return. I am glad I went through this forum before returning the equipment. I will make sure I will ask for a 'Signature Confirmation' at additional cost, that way I can have proof for returning the equipment. But now I am worried about them saying that 'We received the box, but one of the parts was missing'. How do I protect myself against that? Should record the whole activity of packing the receivers etc ?
