There have been charges of $400.00 to my checking account from Dish Network. Since I have never had Dish Network this was a huge surprise to me. I called the number that was listed (same as is listed in this report) and talked to several individuals starting with a customer service rep., then his supervisor and ended up with someone that said they were from ID theft division for the company.
It appears that someone has acquired my debit card number and set up a Dish Network account and when they didn't pay and were shut off my account was charged for none return of equipment. I ask them to reverse the charges since it was strange to me that they would let someone sit up an account that lived out west and my bank and myself live in Wisconsin and how could they sit something up without my signature on some document.
I was informed that they wouldn't reverse the charges and they did not need my signature to sit it up or to take out the money as long as they had the card number and if I wanted to file a complaint to go head and they gave me a government site to file a report on or to have my bank work on it since they weren't going to touch it.
To me this is just out right thief and since they are a big company they feel they can do anything they want. People should think twice before having anything to do with Dish Network since it's clear they will not help a person when caught doing something illegal.
