About two weeks ago, a BEV agent called our house and somehow talked my wife into a trial of the Premium channels. After several attempts to tell the agent that we weren't interested, she finally gave in when the agent told her that we could try it out for a few days and then cancel if we wanted too. He said that it would only cost $0.60 per day and it could be pro-rated to a daily charge.
So I called yesterday to remove the channels. Guess what??? We have to keep the channels for 30 days. But the part that made me angry is that I cannot put in a request to have the channels cancelled. I must call in and wait again on the 30 day mark to cancel them. IF I miss that day, I will be charged for the next billing cycle.
What kind of stupid policy is this? First they blatantly lied about the daily charge, then you can't cancel the service when you want, even by paying for the full month? WHy is it that when you order the addition of the channel it can be done within a few minutes, but it takes upwards of a month to remove them?
Sorry, but it seems like a very poor policy to me.
