ByHow To File Dish Network Complaints and Get Compensation for Poor TV and Internet Service
Dish Network is a satellite company that provides TV and internet service. The company serves over 23 million Americans by providing an affordable viewing experience for over 160 channels.
Some Dish Network customers report experiencing poor service—lack of access to certain channels, loss of signal, and poor internet connection. Another issue frequently brought up by users is that they are receiving significantly worse service than other customers.
If you fall into one of these two categories, you may be due compensation for the damages done by this company's negligence or for the outrageous monthly fee they charge for their services.
How To File Complaints to the Dish Network Complaint Department
Contacting Dish Network and filing a complaint with the company can prove to be quite difficult.
You can try to file your complaint with a customer support representative through the online chat on the company's Support page, but the problem is that the page is slow to load, and it can take a while to connect to a support agent.
The company's Contact page doesn't feature a form through which customers can file complaints. Instead, it merely provides the Dish Network complaint line: 1-800-333-3474. The phone response times are pretty slow, approximately 30 minutes.
You can also contact Dish Network by sending an email at customerservice@mydishnetwork.com, but it's highly unlikely you'll receive a response from the company.
If the customer service representatives fail to give you a favorable response, you can try to send a letter to Dish Network's Executive Office at:
Dish Network LLC, 9601 South Meridian Blvd Englewood, CO 80112, United States
The most likely outcome is that your complaint will be forwarded to a customer support representative, and you will have to start at square one.
If all else fails, you can try emailing the company's CEO at erik.carlson@dish.com, but we advise against it unless you've exhausted all other options and the matter is urgent.

Have Dish Network Complaints? Here’s How To Send Demand Letters To Dish Network in Small Claims Court
If filing complaints with various agencies and taking action against Dish Network proves hard or the company doesn't give in to pressure, you can file a small claims lawsuit against them. Small claims court is meant for disputes between individuals and companies that are worth less than $10,000.
To start the process against Dish Network, you must first draft a demand letter and send it to the company as proof of your intent to send demand letters to. The demand letter must include the following details:
- Your name and contact information
- The name and address of the corporation being sued
- A statement of your intention to file a lawsuit
- A statement that you are willing to accept compensation for damages caused by Dish Network's misconduct and negligence.
The last part is crucial because you must provide the company with the opportunity to resolve your complaint and pay you for the damages done before taking the case to court. If the company agrees to compensate you for your losses, it's possible that your case won't even go to trial.
