Bank Account Debited $201.22 Beyond Quoted $129.95 Activation

I contacted dish network in response to a junkmail ad for cable service for 24.95 per month for twelve months (actually the ad said 24.95 for twelve months service!) I was told that to get service would cost 99 activation fee and 34.95 per month - that the 24.95 package required an additional 150 deposit-scam!

But to actually get service activated would cost 129.95 TOTAL which would include the activation fee and the first months payment and then would be 34.95 per month thereafter. I agreed to this deal and made an appointment for installation.

When I checked my account later that day I found they had debited my bank account the following amounts $1.00, $149.23, $1.00 and $49.99 for a total of $201.22, which caused my account to go into overdraft and was therefore charged two overdraft protection fees.

I then contacted dish network in an effort to get this cleared up with no luck - I spent 3 hours on the phone and talked to 9 different people and got one run around after another and still have not gotten the charges taken off my account.
