We signed up with Dish Network a year and a half ago and were offered a decent rate we could afford. Two months later we realized our first rate increase and have had a few others since. I called asking about it and all I got was that they claim to be cheaper than other services.

We continually see ads for Dish Network that offer the rate we signed up for for new customers. They get you to sign a contract and then raise your rates. The contract is a one way street to benefit Dish Network.

After the last increase, I called to cancel our services and they told me we were under a 2 year contract. I did not recall signing the contract and asked them to mail me a copy. Weeks went by and I never got it so I called and they said we did not have a contract.

Now a year and a half after we started with their services, we get $99 activation charge on our bill because we did not have a contract. I do not recall ever having been asked to sign a contract to begin with.

I think a class action suit needs to be filed against them.

Anyone have any other ideas? Is this legal?
