Sounds like an opportunity to cut the wires, move them into my house and have Dish TV at the neighbor's expense.

I'd tell them I was going to file a vandalism report in one hour.

I'd take that thing down myself and smash it with a sledge hammer.

Dish network is terrible. That shit would be smashed up on the ground at my house.

What about wrap the dish in tin foil. Repeated service calls, tell them to leave they are trespassing, rinse and repeat.

That is some massive incompetence right there. Did you see the post by Mr. Elkins? The dish isn't even for Jordan's next door neighbor---the wires are apparently running loose across the next door neighbor's house from the dish to the house with the service.

Looks like we all need to light this page up. I am missing all of the photoshop/meme opportunities

I moved into a house that had a Dish left behind by previous tenants. Dish tried to convince me I needed to climb on the roof, remove it, and ship it back to Dish else I'd be charged for not returning it even though it wasn't mine! I obviously told them they were nuts and refused, and never got the promised bill from them.
|
|
does this not make sense to anyone else?
wouldn't the installer have had to put the dish up on the house and then finish wiring the equipment by entering the proper house? something about this seems odd. |

View Quote That is some funny stuff I have dish vor over 10 years and they tried to bill me $1,000 because they never got the old box back there contracted tech replaced and took with him when the job was done. They are horrible to deal with but better then cable Posting from my carp phone |
|
I bet Dish has a lot of money.
I would hire a lawyer to get some of it and use that money to have the Dish removed from my roof and repair the damage. |

Go up into the roof, unscrew the dish, bring it down off of the roof but do not cut the wires. Then throw it into the trunk, attach Go-Pro to car facing backwards, then drive off while laughing and dragging your neighbors receiver, television, and whatever else it snags on the way out of their house down the road.

Nothing that a recip saw won't fix. Cut the cable where it crosses the property line.
"What DISH antenna?" |

A lawyer would be a good friend to have right now. A simple letter from your lawyer will light a large flame under their ass.

Step 1: get reciprocating saw
Step 2: cut off dish Step 3: find local Dish office Step 4: throw dish through their front door/window Step 5: profit |
|
I'd probably just get out the BB gun and use the dish's LNB for target practice. Shouldn't take but a couple hits to put it into paperweight mode.

I have this beat.
Years ago I had Direct TV, I had them for many years. I upgraded to a new receiver and decided to give my old one to a friend. Being the good friend I am, I purchased a new access card for this receiver so my friend didn't have to go through the hassle. I think it was around ten bucks or so. I think I had it billed to my account. About two years later I check my bank account and notice a withdrawal from D/TV for over $200 dollars (I don't remember the exact amount as its been years now). I called them, confused as my bill was set on auto withdrawal and was only around $90ish a month. I called them up and they told me it was for an early cancel fee. when I told them that my service was not canceled the customer service person looked into it a bit more and told me that the funds were not taken for my D/tv account but for an account that belonged to somebody else. When I asked who's it was, I was told that they could not release that info as it was not my account. Then I started to get upset and asked for a supervisor....who stated the exact same thing. They took MY MONEY for an account that belonged to somebody else but couldn't tell me who it belonged to because it wasn't mine but I had to pay for it. She said they had the legal right to do it per their customer agreement that I had signed and started to read me the paragraph that related to it....basically they had the right to go in and withdraw funds form the last credit/debit card on file and since I had purchased the card, my card was the last card on file. So after going back and forth with her she finally asked if I had purchased an access card years back and I told her I had. She said that was all the info she could give me. Apparently my friend cancled the account before the contract was up and I was on the hook for the cancel fee. What didn't make sense was that I bought the card years prior, there was no cancel fee to pay...it was all a mistake. After i called my friend they looked into it and found the mistake and reversed the charges. I had already called my bank and filed a fraudulent charge. I was with BOFA at the time and explained the exact situation and they put the money back into my account...... Needless to say, after speaking with the supervisor I canceled the account that day and when the retentions people asked why I told the to look over the notes on the account. They couldn't even believe it. I had Dish installed the next day. A few days later I started getting calls from DTV asking that i come back. I would politely say no thank you each time and hang up. Finally after a few days of calls I told the people on the other end why I canceled and they couldn't believe it either...never got a call from them again. |
