SBC/Dish Network Pay Per View Question

[bikeman]

Hi

I read on phone bill this eariler, and I'm wondering if it means what I think it is, up to $150.00 of credit to buy Pay Per View Movies, or will I be charged $3.99 for them.

Effective January 9, 2006, AT&T | DISH network implemented a $150
credit limit on "Pay-Per-View" charges. Once the credit limit is
reached, Pay-Per-View access will be restricted and payment of Pay-Per-
View charges must be made to restore Pay-Per-View ordering capability.
Payments will be applied to your entire AT&T Telco bill, not
specifically to the Pay-Per-View charges. For any questions please call
1-866-624-2202.

This was from Latest SBC/Dish Network Portion of Phone Bill.



Thanks

My interpretation is that you are allowed to order up to $150 worth of PPV. At the point that the limit is reached, you can't order any more PPV until you pay the bill. You aren't getting $150 of free PPV. You will be charged for each PPV accordingly.

Think of it like a credit card. You have a $5000 limit, but you still gotta pay the bill when it comes!

Well if it's like a credit card, then I won't be ordering any, since bills high enough as it is, at least I know now what it means fully now. I know when we had Primestar Satellite years ago, they gave $100.00 of Pay Per View a month, and when you went over, then had to pay, but guess it's not like that with SBC(or AT&T Dish Network)
