DISH NETWORK BILLING
Read the helpful tips below to learn about your DISH Network bill, easy ways to pay your bill and more!
UNDERSTANDING YOUR FIRST BILL
Your first bill will arrive 5-10 days after installation. This bill covers your first two months of service. You won't receive your next bill until about 45 days after your first bill arrives; this and all other bills will be for just one month of service. After your second bill, each bill will arrive around the same time each month and be due on the same day of each month.
*If you signed up with a promotion that requires payment in advance, your first bill will be for one month of service.
*If you are billed by a third party for DISH Network services, the information above may vary.

FEES AND DISCLOSURES
TV2 Receiver Connection
If you have a Duo receiver (one receiver that controls two TVs), your receiver allows you to watch great DISH Network programming on two TVs for the price of one. Instead of charging you for service for both TVs, DISH Network allows you to waive this fee each month if you connect your receiver to your phone line or Broadband Internet (select models). If you choose not to connect your receiver to a phone line or Broadband Internet, you will see a TV2 Receiver Connection fee of $5/month, just like with other providers. Learn More »
*If you are a DishDVR Advantage customer, you are already saving $5.00 per month for each additional Duo Receiver beyond the first that is plugged into a phone line or broadband.
