Tru dat. Total boneheads are handling that show. I had Bell a year and a half ago. Before leaving the country for a year, I returned all the equipment and cancelled their service. I made sure to get a receipt from the post office when I sent their receivers back.

Guess what? I pulled my credit when I got back and those punks had a collection agency after me for 700 dollars for not returning the receivers. Convincing them that they screwed up was a major challenge. I swear, every person I ever talked to (except the one that I originally bought the service from) was a disagreeable knowitall.

All that aside, it's relatively cheap and there are some benefits to satellite over cable. You get multiple timezones, center ice is available, ummmm...., buncha holes in the side of your house.
