    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    Well, I talked with CSR and they wouldn't send me a new card without the reciever telling me it needed to be replaced. So, I have no tv due to it not letting me add days and I don't have a new card coming because they wont send me one. DISH NETWORK SUCKS!!!!

Knowing this is in "Brown's" system due to arrive next Friday I re-read the forums and reviews to confirm why I wanted the V3000 GBox and not the VBox. It appears as though they have sent me an inferior...
