I had Dish Network several years ago in Washington State, like you I had a month to month contract. I canceled my service because I was moving to Florida. I paid the final bill, shipped their equipment back to them in the prepaid box they provided. Now I check my credit report and find I have an account in collections with them. After a bit of checking I have found that there are several other people that have the same problem. It would appear that it is Dish Networks practice to come up with fraudulent charges as a way to punish subscribers that go back to cable. I have tried contacting the ANFI, the collection agency about this matter and they refuse to respond. I contacted TransUnion, and Experian and disputed the account, only to have them say the debt is valid. Anyone want to get together on a class action suit on these jerks?
