Adam Putnam is responsible for heading the state watchdogs for TV service providers. Yesterday I filed a complaint with his office regarding deceptive billing practices by dish TV. Their rep stated that this complaint could be filed against all the tv providers. I followed up with an email to Putnam asking specifically what if anything was being done to curtail these practices. The response from their office was that since 2007 deregulation, they have absolutely NO control over any buisness or billing practices by these providors. It appears that deregulation which was meant to stimulate competition has backfired to some degree. Pls contact your elected official and voice your concern.
