I've been a Dish customer for several years. I moved and decided I didn't need it. Cancelling is ridiculous. A lot of time is wasted on hold and getting through their terrible phone support system. Then, after waiting way too long, I had to attempt to communicate with someone who can barely speak English.
They try to get you to pause your account instead of cancelling. Then, if you have a credit due, you have to wait a couple of days, then call to request it! Of course, you're on hold AGAIN. They then make you wait while someone else authorizes it!
And, in addition to all of that, they won't even retrieve the dish on your property! They claim to have great customer service. It's absolutely terrible!
