Default 800% Tax increase on Dish Bill

Has anyone in the Marion County area on Dish Network recieved their current bill and noticed the increase tax rate.

I just got my Dish bill and the State and Local tax charge on the bill went from $1.28 to $8.99 in one month. Nothing else changed on the bill. That's over 800% increase. I called Dish and they say they have nothing to do with what is charged for local and state taxes on the bill. It's really not a lot of money, but an 800% increase is ridiculous. It's the principle. Would anyone have an idea of which state or local agency I would contact. They may have made a mistake. Perhaps it was only supposed to be an 80% or 8% increase and someone mistakenly added an extra zero or two???

Thanks
