Dish Network
Contract Price Jumped From $29.99 to $44.00

I too got the bait and switch by Dish Network. My 2 year contact stated at $29.99 and then jumped to my current monthly bill of $44.00. I contacted Dish and they were more than happy to share
the "we gotcha" moment with me and advised me to read the contact closely which states they can raise the price anytime. Yes, they got me. No wonder they would not allow me to pay for the entire 2 years up front. From what I've been reading this is common for The Dish to do this. My installer Dennis assured me that no price increase was on the radar but I guess he's in on the "play" as well. When I asked the dish about the price increase they advised their "costs" went up and had to pass along, but the next day I got the same $29.99 Dish Network mailer in the mail I'd been getting for a year. So this is clearly a bait and switch because they are selling the same package today, but I'm paying $44.00 monthly. If anyone has any ideas how to get out of it, let me know.
