Dish pay as you go account

[andrew selkregg]

I travel about 120 days per year and use my Dish about 3 or 4 times per year at various locations for about 2 weeks at a time. I don't have Dish at home so I have to activate it each month I want to use it, and give them a new service address each location so I can receive the local channels where I'm at.
This seems to drive them crazy, and me as well. They want to keep billing me whether I'm using it or not.
They talk a great program with their "pay as you go", but it's a nightmare to use.
Does anyone have a method they successfully use to start and stop the service?
