Dish Network
Early Termination Fee Charged After Moving Where Signal Is Blocked

I moved out of state for work. I am unable to receive satellite service at my new home due to the mountain and forest blocking a clear view of the Southern sky. I called Dish to cancel my account because I am, obviously, not going to pay for service that I cannot receive. I was told that it was my choice to move and that the contract that I signed stated that they guaranteed service only at the address where the account was created, not any address that I may move to, therefore the contract is valid and they are charging me an early termination fee of over $300.00. Do not get Dish if there is a chance that you may move within the contract period or they will try to screw you just like they are me. It is ridiculous that I am supposed to pay for service that I can no longer receive through no fault of my own. I was not told about this clause, nor did I see it anywhere in the contract. Be careful where you move and make absolutely sure that you want their service for 2 years before you go with Dish.
