If you haven't paid the bill you may still be able to question the charge with the credit card company. You can check with them to see. If you have already paid the credit card bill there is little you can do. Like Kris said, this is crazy since a 2 year old DVR is worthless. We have had 3 in that same time period because they don't last that long and many have now been upgraded to high definition. Contact someone higher up than you were speaking to before. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>KaylaCarson's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08431455378783988344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434202048056046520.post-40764401983086670832008-10-24T21:53:00.000-07:002008-10-24T21:53:00.000-07:00Charissa,It is always fun to visit your blog, see ...Charissa,<BR/>It is always fun to visit your blog, see your kids and especially see Ava's progress.

Thankfully Jeremy had kept the DVR box and we were able to return it. I hate feeling so manipulated by these companies - phone companies, cell phones, cable, internet services - CRAZY!!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I would write a letter as Shelley suggested, but also point out that your cable service was cancelled 2 years ago!Jeremy and Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08768690222206103674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434202048056046520.post-80990786327236806332008-10-24T17:11:00.000-07:002008-10-24T17:11:00.000-07:00I am not sure either.

However, 2 years might be some sort of time limitation????? I am not an attorney, so I am not sure. However, since you already paid for the $350, you might not be able to get it back. Sorry about this yucky situation. Maybe God will restore the $ in another area.

But at the very least, I'd write a letter of complaint to the company, explain the entire siuation and politely tell them that not only will you not use their services anymore but you will be advising others to steer clear of them due to their less than honorable customer service.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05854999345315958520noreply@blogger.com
