None of the companies around value old customers! Why is that? Once you become a customer you become one without any value what so ever.

I've been a dish customer for more than 5 years now. I have referred lot of people to Dish. They all got deals with the DVRs. I called them saying that I wanted one and they want to charge me atleast $130 or so. While the new customers are paying just like what I am paying but with a free DVR. How unfair is that? I love all other aspects of Dish network. They have good selection of channels, good international line up etc. I also don't understand why they charge $5 for every down grade you do. Only way to avoid that charge is you add a channel and simultaneously tell them to cancel the other channel you don't need.

I am amazed at the ways they find out to squeeze money out the customer. Not only dish, its cell phone companies, phone companies etc. I hate the fine print scam. I don't know why its tolerated in this country. We don't have any rights. The corporates can just get away with anything like this.

This country has become so pro corporate and consumers are left with no rights anymore. Its a very upsetting trend.
